With Less than 30,000 miles, had to get it towed twice and went through 2 cracked radiators. Not happy

Great choice. Drives like a dream. This is the Titanium and has the 2.0 Eco Boost which is not on the list above. Voice commands (Sync) are confusing especially when using navigation. Tried to tell it to nav to Ojai. Got a reply that this was not understood. I had to pull over and manually type in Ojai before the nav would work. Not really a Ford issue but thought I would mention it. Great hands free rear door that is height programmable. Important if you have a low garage door. I am disappointed about the MPG. Not what was advertised but the Escape is still new and might get better. More expensive then I wanted to spend but overall it is a great choice for a smaller SUV. My wife loves it and after all isn't that what life is about?

Bought this one because wife is very short, and complained about previous SUV that she couldn't see out. The Escape Titanium has full 10 way power on the passenger side, and she is delighted with the ride.

First I have the 2.0 Turbo Engine. Let's start with the Vista roof. You cannot have the windows down as the head liner will flip and drive you crazy at any speed. I have taking it on one major trip and now have parked it and looking to sell it soon. Under the front is a cheapest cardboard covering of the engine you will ever find! That's is until you have to have it replaced because of a piece of Truck tire that hit it. What it really does, is protect a small piece on the A/C compressor that looks like a afterthought. It's fuel Economy should be more. I would look at a Edge because of power verses mileage. The Escape doesn't corner well. At least with the 19" tires. It's tall and narrow and drifts. For the money, you can find a better SUV. The 2017 has made changes the 2016 doesn't have. Like a bigger gas tank. Then their is the shifter that is to far forward on the 2016 but was moved on the 2017. You will like the sound but that can come on just about any Ford, the sync 3. I had one side window blow out on a turnpike and the glass did not stay together but went everywhere, lucky for me, my grand-daughter was asleep under a blanket. The hood was really ugly but the 2017 they did some changes also. I would stay away from this SUV and look at others before I buy and also look at the HP. The 2017 added more HP, but again when you get only about 3 mpg over a 300 HP V6, I would really look at the V6 Engine. Last, when will Warranty be upped on a Ford? Even the Lincoln has 4 years. Many others have better and for the money I really would not do this again. And for love of money don't buy a White one if people around you burn wood as it's a magnet for soot! The tailgate on mine goes in for a look as waving my 11" shoe will not open the back. I hope this helps someone, Thanks! Oct-2018 Update: After driving this car since Sept. of 2015 I have found out more things to you buying a used 2016 Escape. ( I bought mine new) For the biggest problem, I would start with Blinds spots. This is very important to safety! Even though this SUV has mirror blind spots Led's, the shape of the mirror's nixed this feature. It is important to turn your head going into a merge that will allow you to see a vehicle. Lets say you are merging into a highway and the traffic is going 70 Mph. You could very easy get into a accident because of the very large area between the windows. My wife and I both have had very close calls. Next, the German 2.0 turbocharged engine in this 2016. (they improved this in the 2017's) This car needs premium fuel! Even though the HP is fine on a flat road or highway, you will find this to always works hard on big hills. This is problem that cannot be overcome. Also the mileage with a full load will also give you poor range with the size of the tank. This really is just designed mostly for around town car. It's tall and narrow and in a strong wind you will find it hard to maintain the lane. We have almost stopped driving this but to town and local areas. I would go for a newer year if staying with the Escape. Happy Driving!

I didn't realize how much I was going to love this car. It is so comfortable, even for a small person, and I can see out the windows. I feel like I need a booster seat in most cars. We rent a lot of cars on vacation and that is how we discovered the Escape.
