2001 Ford Escape XLT review from North America
"Very good car overall (100% recommended)"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I had to replace the AC compressor twice in the same year.
Radio screen don't illuminate half of the times, even when the radio is on.
Other than that, no problems at all.
General comments?
Very nice car for the price!!! fun to drive. Excellent response... it doesn't feel like those heavy SUV's. No problems with reliability until now. Nice view of the road all the time.
I'm a little disappointed with the MPG since I expected more efficiency as publicized.
Good car overall!!
