Just walked away from a head on collision in a 2020 Escape Titanium. Speeds around 45mph driver headed toward me decided to make a cross lane turn immediately in front of me. High praise for the safety system. There really wasn’t anything I didn’t like about the car. Well maybe the direct injection engine without port injection to help keep the valves clean.
I have the 24 Escape Active Tech Pk 1 and Absolutely Love it. Great Fuel Milage, Very Solidly Built. Very High Tech for a Base Model compared to others. Seating is extremely comfortable as is the visibility!!
Great! Glad you’re enjoying it. Thanks for tuning in.
I live in Maryland. I have 2020 eco sport with just under 30k miles. my local dealer keeps trying to get me to trade it in. I did go in a look at the bronco signed a bunch of paper but then I backed out cuz the rims I wanted where white and they weren’t willing to switch them with black ones. So I ended up walking. With this escape I don’t see the wow factor that would make me trade mine in and start over on payments. This is the model they are trying to upgrade me to and I don’t personally like it. Other then a lil more space, the rear vents and the interior there’s no wow factor there for me with this model.
Excellent review! Mine arrives in 3 months! Thanks
Thanks! Thank you for watching. Much appreciated.
hello, how are the full led headlights on night? I'm coming from a focus with matrix LED and for me this static LED would be a downgrade.. :(
In Germany the car is called KUGA. I test drove the plug-in hybrid and the full hybrid, both are really convincing. The special thing about FORD is its chassis. You can take a motorway curve at 200 km/h without any problems, as if the thing were running on rails. Then I ordered the full hybrid straight away. Unfortunately, it won't be available for another 5-6 months. This will be my 9th Ford and I can't wait!
Great! Thanks for tuning in and the feedback. Best of luck with the order.
I just picked my ST Select early this week. I do have the 2.0l four cylinder which comes on the ST Select and is smooth and powerful. Same color as shown here. I like the car except for the technology package. The adaptive speed control is very, very slow to react and is uncomfortable to use when using the increase or decrease speed arrow buttons. Would prefer standard speed control which I'm used to. The nav system is subscription after a year. Screen controls are not intuitive and I dislike them with an intensity that is hard to describe. Lane centering is okay. Instrument controls and setups are typical of most auto makers today... lousy! I'm taking the car back to the dealer today in an effort to get some training in this nonsense. Would prefer more info and less tech.
On the rear view mirror its Not auto dim you have to flip that button
I thought the cluster was fully digital with the 13.2 screen?
was looking at the new ST Line Elite Hybrid.. seems really nice but im not sure i trust it.. especially vs the Rav XSE Hybrid.
If you’re going to buy and keep it a long time, the RAV is hard to beat. If you’re leasing for 3 years, then you may want to take a chance on the Escape since you’ll never be out of warranty.
Of the subject I do have ! comment - Had a 2013 Ford Focus Platinum with all features Ford Does not have a way to check The transmission Fluid. At 143000 kilometers the Transmission made a wierd Noise. The dealer where I purchased and had serviced the car - The transmission Was very low on oil.
Now who is responsible for this? Is the dealer supposed to check the transmission every 6000 miles when the car is serviced or what. Have spoken to other Focus drivers and they have more than double the mileage. DAMN you mechanics or DAMN dealer vfo rthis tramsmission being damaged.
This is Ford SERVICE - I will publish this articles as long as I live.
Pretty nice car! Like the grey finish snd wheels. The "safe" option may well be the 2.5L Hybrid 4..might be fun to price compare with Honda CRV Hybrid. The 3 cyl. and 2.0-
4 might give me reliability/ durability doubts. A base Tucson, Sportage or Forester are cheaper. The equipment package is a plus on this vehicle. Excellent review..keep your prospective consumers thinking!!
hello there 🫡🫡
