I am very jealous of my friends Honda CRV. But if you want something that's well thought out, smart design choices and has any kind of spunk to it you're looking at the wrong vehicle. The design choices by Ford on this vehicle were done for those who just want to mindlessly drive to their destination and want nothing more out of a vehicle, and I would happily recommend the vehicle to anyone like that. The Escape is a joyless point a to point b vehicle for those who don't care what their vehicle is giving them. You also can permanently turn off the auto stop/start, you need to do it every time you turn on the vehicle. Forget to turn off the car and you hop out, even for a second, the car will loudly honk twice at you. Automatic cruise control sensor frozen over or dirty? well it's dinging at you. Got a dash message? dinging at you even if you cancel it out. My least favourite thing about the vehicle is how often it's dinging or beeping or honking at me. My dealer thankfully installed a block heater which gets a lot of use late Dec - late Feb. Freezing rain is a nightmare in this vehicle. Also the front window defogger takes forever to thaw out the windshield but when its going you'll be so warm inside you need to crack a window at -40 and figure out that temperature balance. The first time it happened I thought my power steering pump had failed it was that stiff. You can feel the stiff components in the vehicle especially when steering. ![]() The moon roof is too far back over the front passengers, you need to crank you neck all the way back to see anything.Īlso not great for Canadian winters, for those really truly cold starts in those frozen mornings. I own the SEL model with the full retractable moon roof which was a feature I loved when I was shopping but having lived with it for a few years it's useless. The android/apple auto/carplay hardly works, randomly disconnects, you need to use the cable that came with your phone or it wont work at all, no aftermarket phone chargers!! I'm a 6' 200lbs male and I don't feel like I fit in the drivers seat, they could be a few inches wider considering the gaps between the doors and center console. The interior of the vehicle for how spacious it is feels cramped. Prior to this vehicle I owned a full size pick up (with a 5.4L v8) and the fuel performance is only slightly better, during the winter with the heater (more on that below) running your fuel economy will suffer massively. The vehicle is just very mediocre, the fuel performance is no where near as good as it should be. Purchased new in late 2019, was one of the last Escapes on the lot.
