2017 Ford Escape Titanium SUV EcoBoost - First Gear - Review and Test Drive

[@elle8099]

Very nice review. Hope this would be my first car

[@shawnbeck2303]

Bought a used 2017 Escape Titanium AWD 2.0 turbo Eco-Boost. With 21,000 miles. Has all the bells and features I wanted. Well, Ford strikes again! Water Intrusion in cylinder 3. Bought the extended warranty. Ford paid $6600 for a 2020 engine. The engineers at Ford knew the Eco-Boost engine had this issue. Before putting the Escape on the market. I have owned the Escape since 2019. Before Covid 19. The tires from the factory sucked, head lights that burn out but can't be reached by the owner, The oil must be changed every 5,000 miles or the rings jam into the pistons, The oil gets diluted by the high pressure direct injection, The valves get gummed up on the backs because no fuel cleans the carbon off. Every 40,000 miles they need walnut blasted, The oil line filters to the turbo get clogged with carbon and destroy the turbo. A recall on the plastic Shifter adjustment for the transmission will break and leave you strayed. The radar for the front end to stop you from hitting someone goes out. You can't read the transmission fluid because it sealed. But, Get's dirty and your transmission goes out. All the fluids are hard to take out and replace for maintenance. The Escape needs a 10 speed transmission to get over 25 miles to the gallon. To many bells go off every time you want to get out of your Escape. The battery is under the driver side dash. Try and change it your self. Almost impossible. So now the thing's I like about the Escape. Very fun to drive! Nice slide back top, The seats are comfortable and hold you in place, The Escape is a great looking SUV, plenty of room when laying the back seats down for groceries and bags of dirt. One more bad thing is the paint is really thin all over the vehicle. Ford could of made a great compact SUV. But, Chose to rip the consumer off. Why Ford? You made The F 150 and The Taurus great. Why not The Escape?. That's why your stock is $12.00. I hope you go out of business all together. For just being greedy. Henry Ford would turn over in his grave. For what you have done to his beloved Company! Shawn.

How do you not know what an amplifier is? You literally just mentioned the subwoofer. That "thing" is what powers it.
