this car rides well, is quiet, is peppy with the turbo, and is fun to drive. We traded a Honda CRV for this...just kept that one for a year. So glad we did. We have had the car for 4 years, and it has been basically trouble free...just an overflow hose replacement required. This car is underrated. Ours has averaged 26.8 miles per gallon over and over again, combining highway and local driving over 60,000 miles. We have always adhered to Ford's maintenance schedule, and found the car to be a pleasure to drive and own. Now we are looking to replace it with one incorporating the new camera based safety features which were not available in 2014.

Bought 2014 SE model two months ago after testing 2014 Mazda CX 5 and 2013 Toyota Rav 4 as contenders. Although it was a difficult decision we decided with the escape after receiving several thousand off and more options then the other two. I have the 1.6 liter engine and has been great accelerating then expected from expert reviews. Although common by many other consumers reviews from the 2013 it has not yet unfortunately lived up to EPA estimates of 22/30 MPG. Highest has been 25.2 on highway after only 900 miles though. We shall see if break in period makes a difference soon enough. As for the talked about My Ford Touch, well I couldn't be any happier! Escape is quiet and handles great. March 9,2016 update: everything that was said 2.5 years ago is the same today with no complaints ! Now with 39,000 miles. Absolutely love the intergrated back up camera with guided lines that turn when you turn making backing up in to parking space and driveway very easy. No repairs!

After two visits to the selling dealer, and being told they couldn't find anything wrong with it, then two more to the dealer in my town of residence, who agreed that the heater wasn't working right, my lemon's heater stopped working at all. I don't have time to be taking it into the dealership and leaving it there to be fixed. It needed a new center brake light, had to be realigned twice in the first week that I owned it due to something being broken. And that's just a short list. I won't buy another Ford.

The Can't Escape!

[brand new Ford Escape 2014; coolant gasket issue left me and my child stranded on 110 freeway express lanes at under 60,000 miles; transmission had to be replaced shortly thereafter - it too left me on the freeway; received recall letters for both items AFTER I had already paid to fix them (a refund would be appreciated) and now the coolant is having an issue AGAIN - I'm sure I'll see another recall notice in the mail AFTER I've paid to fix this too, not to mention the Turbo leak.] Can't Escape this piece of Shiznit!
