It's a Love/Hate relationship

First off: has been very very dependable without asking anything extra from me. Can't say that about all my relationships. Pricey with a few "frills" missing. Like no locking "glove box" Like no electronic plug-in in the rear seat area. Like no little blinkin' lights on the left and right rear view outside mirrors to warn people I'm changing lanes. Guess that's their problem, not mine. Safety issue: Driver's side windshield piler is so wide that is blocks view when making left hand turns. The frills that I LOVE are heated leather seats, rear view camera, nice to open the door and SLIDE right in (17 inch wheels!) and with the open sunroof interior slide open my hair looks gorgeous. Front drivers seat very comfortable. Haven't ridden in the passenger seat. Well, someone had to drive.

I like the cloth seats but would prefer bench seats for these smaller vehicles with a little more cushion in them. The cruise control needs to be less complicated. I have the 2.4 engine with 4wd so if you are able to set cruise control before going up hills it's better. Would have preferred a 6 cylinder.

Terrible car

I just got the 2.4 automatic Compass Limited last week. It's a fleet vehicle, didn't have a choice so didn't test driver one. Picked up the car one evening, didn't do anything but drive home 5 miles. Woke up the next morning and the remote access buttons on the key did not work, used the key, got in, started the car and the radio wasn't working either. All kinds of similar issues. I'm sure that can be fixed but the biggest problem is the engine/powertrain. The vehicle does terrible when you try to accelerate to change lane or merge, pulls to the point of almost losing control. I drove a '12 Escape with a 2.5 engine, much more powerful engine. Well I was sent an email today (2/4/17) to update my review. I no longer have the Compass, I have a 2017 Ford Escape. It's got a 1.5 liter EcoBoost engine (essentially a turbo, not sure why they call it EcoBoost) . Anyway this little car hauls you know what, well at least compared to the Compass. It accelerates great and takes hills without crying! Car is also much more solidly put together. The Compass door was very light and felt cheap so did the interior. The Escape feels a lot more sturdy. While I'm not a huge fan of the exterior of the Escape, I thought the previous models looked like a truck, the newer model doesn't know if it wants to be an SUV, CUV or Mini Van. Still for everything else great about the car, I'll live with that. I got an e-mail asking me to update my review......it still sucks!
