It’s good, but not class leading what-so ever…

I’ve had multiple Ford Escape rentals for months at a time due to issues with my cars sunroof ( 3 to be exact ) for probably a total amount of 6 months. Every time I get into these escapes I do like how well they handle and how sporty they can feel, how good the audio is, and the decent MPG. But that about sums it up for things I like about the 2020-2022 escapes. The transmissions before the break in period make the car miserable to drive, meaning that it hunts for gears, jerky shifts, sometimes pushes it to 4-5k RPM when using small amounts of throttle ( and this happens on all 3 of the ones I’ve drove ). I do not like all of the cheap plastics inside of the escapes, even the top trims have the cheap plastics, such as the SEL/TITANIUM. They just feel cheap for the absurd price you have to pay for one of these escapes ( the titanium can get up to 45k dollars… really? ). Also, one last little complaint… UNCOMFORTABLE. I truly do not see these cars lasting past 100-150k miles just due to the 1.5 turbo motor paired with the 8 speed, plus I don’t see owners of these cars wanting to own them for 8-12 years. Compared to even the last generation Escape, this thing is quite pathetic.

Horrible

Just an all around crappy vehicle. Ford has always made some of the worst looking and running vehicles but the new escape is one of the worst. I drive mine as a company car so I’m in it roughly 5-6 hours a day. So cheaply made and it shows in every aspect of the vehicle. For the price, a rav4 or even a rogue would be 100x better.
