Good car but poor dealer network. Plastic stuff will break. Had two sets of front brakes, one set of rotors and 4 tires. Front tires go....V6 car though. 3 check engine light issues (EGR related)...on warranty. Had to repair the cruise control cable also (repaired myself with a pin). I use synthetic oil in it. Auto trans not always smooth. Happy with truck...good price...good looks.

Hi All,
I have a 2002 Escape XLT with 62 000 Km on it. I had the front support arms and lower A arm changed on it. My tires will have to be replaced in the fall. I wonder about the motor but it seems to be ok at this time. My trans shifts into OD funny sometimes but it works for now. Regards, Spotovi

I don't why U had the A arm changed...???? Tires always wear out....the front suspension is a McPherson strut design and with front wheel drive...tires always get burnt up. Motor is good....I use synthetic....10w-30 Castrol. 65K on it now.

2003 (& technically very early 04MY) Escapes seem to be the most prone to the suspected Zircon contamination.
