Ford Escape Usados en Venta en Syracuse, NY

My 2015 Ford Escape is my favorite vehicle I have ever owned. There is a feature where the car will sense traction loss and engage 4wd. I have never felt so safe in a vehicle while driving in the snow. The inside is roomy and has lots of tech capabilities. I enjoyed the comfortable ride and have had this car for three years and have not had to replace anything. It was a roomy vehicle for a long road trip. There is a turbo engine that uses Fords eco boost to accelerate, although there is a long delay before activation. The car has a small engine, which is a problem for some, but for daily driving, I didn't find the car needing any more acceleration capabilities than it comes with. There are other features including winter weather package and sunroof features. I chose the model with a smaller screen for rear view camera, as I don't care for a clunky center console.

When I purchased this vehicle I was really excited about the prospect of a smaller SUV that allowed enough space for storage and seating. First impressions provide a nice looking car with room for 5. After having the vehicle for a prolonged period of time we felt the seating space was tight and the car was really loud. You cannot fit 2 boosters or car seats and a third person in the back seat without being crammed in, and the trunk latch went faulty right away, which is a known issue that has not been covered under warranty. In the end we realized we should have invested in a vehicle that provide another row of seating and had better reviews and more pros outweighing the cons.

Initially I loved the Ford Escape. A little smaller than the Explorer but much better gas mileage. Comfortable ride and fairly quiet compared to other vehicles in that price point. Handles well in the rain and snow. I would like to have a higher towing capacity as I am limited to what I can tow with the Escape. The rear seats fold down nearly flat but you have to remove the headrests in order to do so. Plenty of leg room for driver and passengers. Electric seat adjustment works very well. Info display offers the convenience of seeing odometer, 2 trip mile counters, miles until empty, etc, but it would be nice if it would say what was wrong with the vehicle when the check engine light is on. On the front doors there are vertical aluminum sections on the outside along the back edge of the glass that are painted black, or coated in a black, that has fully peeled off exposing bare aluminum. This started at around 40K miles. At 85K the transmission broke and needed replacing. Several other components have needed replacing that I feel should have lasted longer.
