2001 Ford Escape XLT review from North America
"Is a good deal for the bucks"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The shift handle linkage broke.
Leaky window seal.
General comments?
Ford dealer took care of both repairs free of charge.
This car does great hauling light trailers, plenty of power.
Seats are very comfortable.
Lighting in the cabin is sparse.
