In August, 2013, I purchased my 2014 2L FWD Titanium model. Aside from the bad work from Brandon Ford, where I purchased it AND Ford refusing to honor my $1,200 warranty for a shattered panoramic glass which took 3wks to repair, and the air leak it's been almost flawless. I've waited for months for the dealer to return my calls and for Ford to do the right thing, so hey, I'm going to talk about it. The good part is, I like the vehicle with little exception. It isn't as smooth as my Explorer AWD was, but steering feel from the D/S is excellent and driving exp. is great. Economy has gone UP! Started around 22mpg avg and has gone to nearly 25mpg avg. 8.1k on the odometer.

Great so far. traded a 13 Honda crv ex-l on this 14 tit. 2.0l awd. The Honda seats were very uncomfortable. Every day use made your tailbone sore. Worked with an upholstery guy for a while but to no avail. Only drove 1400 miles. the ford makes the Honda feel like it was a ten year old car. Love the power of the 2L turbo. Much better than the 1.6 in my fusion se fwd. drives nice, feels solid, quiet. put a hitch on. 2000 lb cap. learning to use the nav. and sync. nice features but takes some learning. Will follow up at 10000 miles or so. About 17,000 miles now and like it more than when it was new. Air works great compared to that Honda. Excellent engine power. Seats still a little firm for me but they are pretty nice. Might try an Edge next time for more room. About 22000 now. Still like it a lot. 10% less gas mileage but 30% more H.P. than the Honda. Big power difference. My friends thought it was a V6 engine, and that was with four people in it with the air running. almost 30000 miles now and everything is good. still love that 2.0L turbo engine. This setup is great, I hope it runs a long time. Tires getting iffy, but that's normal for factory rubber. I would like something a little bigger next time, like the edge sport would be great. 37000 miles now and nothing new to add. 42,000 plus miles and all is well. Love the power of the 2.0 ecoboost. replaced the battery and tires. That's it so far. 55000 mi and all is well. Still impressed with this engine. Edmunds needs to update their model information. A 2.0 liter turbo was not on the model choices. 65000 and just rear brakes so far.

I purchased my 2014 CPO in May 2016; I'm writing this review in December 2017. My car currently has about 48,000 on it. I have every option but the sunroof and towing package. Overall, I really like it but a few things may prevent me from getting another one. I'm a 40-something woman who loves cars and has had a lot of them. I prefer cars that are more fun (GTI, Mini Cooper S, etc) but decided to get something completely different this time. What I love - the engine, the steering g, the handling, the seats, the ergonomics, the safety features. What I don't love - the dash and be the console are ugly, it isn't the easiest thing to see out of, the rattles in the center console, the interior trim pieces that keep falling off. To me, the drive is like that of an older VW (i mean that as a huge compliment) but the stupid quality issues annoy me. Used or CPO, I think this is a good value new, I think it's expensive. If they'd take the mechanics of the car and put them in a German car skin, it would be perfection. I tend not to keep cars for more than a couple of years but I think I'll keep this one for a while. I do miss being in a car vs. a crossover so I'll probably get a station wagon next time but that's just my personal preference. I do think that more people should consider Fords than currently do; i test drive a bunch of foreign brands before I bought the Escape and it was better than most of them, at least of what I wanted, which was a quick wagon that handled well and has good safety features like BLIS. I am a little worried about how best the this f will look in 3 more years, though.

Reliability Nightmare on 2014 Ford Escape 2.0 AWD

Nice looking vehicle that has had many issues. When I was looking for a new vehicle it ended up being between the Toyota Rav4 and the Ford Escape. I wish now that I would have chosen the Rav4. Problems and more problems! It took Ford 1-1/2 years to fix my Escape door that would not always latch shut. At least I think it's fixed now. 2.0 engine has intermittent hesitation that Ford has not been able to resolve. Rear differential noise has been repaired twice in 25,000 miles. Trans slips from 1st to 2nd and sometimes downshifts for no reason. Besides the recalls dealing with Ford customer service is just about as bad as calling my cable company. Continue to experience violent transmission downshifts. From day one my Escape still experiences intermittent hesitation which has caused many close calls making this Escape unsafe to drive.

Would love this car, if not for the fact that it whistles when going over 55. An internet search has shown me that this is an ongoing problem with this model Wish I had seen that first. Have had it to the service department over 7 times, and they cannot fix it. Ford tells me I am out of luck. Do yourself a favor, try a different vehicle.
