Our ST Line in silver with Tech Package 1 and the Cold Weather Package is excellently designed and produced. Henry Ford would be impressed - a great vehicle at a reasonable price made in the USA. Love that heated steering wheel in the winter, wonderful use of gasoline and surprising power from the engine.

Battery issues, wind noise, great summer MPG

The main headline is battery drain. The car will go into a power saving mode that eliminates interior lights when entering at nighttime, door handle sensors, remote start, radio stopping as soon as your shut the car off (instead of waiting until you open the door) etc etc. The source of the problem is unknown, however, some online think they've equipped these cars with too small of a battery. I'm about to be in the shop a second time for battery issues, which would make it its 3rd battery in just over a year and a half if they swap it out again. This vehicle is great for MPG in the Summer (low 40s) but in the high 20s/low 30s for MPG in the cold winter. I've been frustrated by wind noise by the driver side mirror that I was told was "normal" by service dept at dealer and I had to take things into my own hands by wedging the rubber piece off an old wiper blade into a vertical mirror crevice. I would highly recommend the car if it weren't for those two pesky problems with noise and battery issues.

Perfect size, look, economy. The seat and steering wheel warmers are wonderful. We also like the seat adjuster on the door. No complaints yet!

I like all the features the Escape as available to me. I like the ability to adjust the steering wheel and the feature of a heated steering wheel.
