2002 Ford Escape XLT review from North America
"It is an all around good car and would buy it again!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My rotors needed replacing at 100,000km.
A U-joint on the 4x4 shaft went bad. (I just took the shaft off and left it off 2x4 now).
The parking brake light and ABS light now stay on constantly.
General comments?
This has been a great car for my family. We go through all 4 seasons and have had great luck with it. I figure myself to be very lucky after reading of every ones comments and am going for 300,000km!
