    No Accidents! One Owner!

    OTHER NOTABLE FEATURES AND OPTIONS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT:





    Comfort

    • Manual reclining driver seat - Lean back. Gain some space between you and the wheel with manual reclining driver seat. It lets you adjust the angle of the seatback for added comfort while you're driving, or for a more comfortable rest while you're pulled over. Settle in, with manual reclining driver seat.
    • Power driver seat fore/aft adjustment - A touch forward? A touch more back? The choice is yours. Enjoying your drive begins with being comfortable in the driver's seat. With power driver seat fore/aft adjustment, you can find your perfect position to reach the steering wheel and pedals. Not only are you more comfortable, you're safer, too, with power driver seat with fore/aft adjustment.

    Convenience

    • Cruise control with steering wheel mounted controls. Set it and forget it. Road trips used to be stressful, until cruise control set the pace. Simply set the desired speed using the steering wheel mounted controls and it will maintain that speed without driver intervention. This can help minimize driver fatigue and improve overall fuel economy. Resting your right foot is right at your fingertips thanks to cruise control with steering wheel mounted controls.

    Powertrain and Mechanical

    • Variable valve timing - Change your output. There are a lot of variables in your drive, so why should your engine always operate the same? With variable valve timing, the engine is efficient at both low and high RPM's, so you get better fuel efficiency, cleaner emissions and improved performance. Variable valve timing provides a better drive, every time.

    Safety and Security

    • Brake assist - Stop right there. Something jumps out into the middle of the road and you need to stop now! With brake assist, you will. It uses the speed of the brake pedal's travel to sense panic braking, then applies all available power to boost your stopping power. Brake assist can stop the accident before it is one.

      Solid Basic SUV - old but even survived Hurricane

      by FordEscape on 4/5/2026 4:08:08 AM

      Solid Basic SUV - old but even survived Hurricane. Paint doesn't look good anymore after roof shingles basically sandblasted it in some areas. Other than that it should run another at least Two hundred thousand miles.

      My (beloved) Clunker.../09 Escape Hybrid

      by Brent on 4/1/2026 1:13:59 AM

      No real complaints about the 17 yr. old Escape Hybrid. Not a luxury vehicle but hasn't let me down yet aka it's been a very reliable vehicle. Try to maintain it as best that I can (although now that it is quite old, I'm not as diligent in taking care of it). The Diagnostics just went on it (i.e. tire pressure sensor fault light is always on, engine (oil) warning light always on, check brakes etc). Also the AC quit working...stone apparently struck the condenser. As old as it is, I can't justify the cost of fixing these issues (& my mechanic agrees). That said, since we have long winters c/w having to deal with lotsa salt on the roads in winter, I have tried to keep the vehicle rust protected (get it oil sprayed every other year) and I also (hand apply) wax (almost) every year. The result is it looks great. The only thing I seem to do is change the oil/reg. service as required & it just keeps going.

      Great car for anyone

      by Yotagirl on 12/29/2025 9:24:03 PM

      Purchased my 08 escape used (1 owner) I've had no issues only normal maintenance needed in 5+ years I've owned it. Now at 150K miles it still runs great. Reliable, handles well in rain snow, and even ice. Comfortable and easy to drive. Plenty of power even when towing a trailer full of camping gear and heavy tool boxes and more. I recommend this model /yr. A good first car and a good car for anyone driving in Washington's weather conditions.
