2002 Ford Escape XLS review from North America
"When it's good, it's very good, but when it's bad, it's horrid"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
For the past two years, the car sometimes doesn't start and twice has had to be towed into a Ford dealership.
Due to this problem, idler has been replaced twice, fuel pump has been replaced and it's been in five different dealerships more than a dozen times to find out what is wrong.
My "trunk" lock wore out.
General comments?
I love my car, it's been my favorite vehicle ever until two years ago when I don't know if I will be stranded or not, will it start today or no?
It has little pick up on the highway, but when it goes, it goes, very easily.
