2005 Ford Escape review from North America
"Super value, perfect reliability for 100,000 miles"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
It has had absolutely no repairs over 101,000 miles.
May now need wheel bearings. Replaced original tires at 101,000 miles. The most reliable car I have ever owned.
General comments?
Incredibly reliable, and excellent highway mileage; over 30 mpg with typical 75 mph speed. The car is not fancy, but suits my height (6'4") well, and performs well in Illinois weather and road conditions.
