We run these Escapes as part of the fleet vehicles at my job in NY/NJ. They absolutely blow engines and trans between 80-90k miles make sure to do the trans service. Also check for recalls . I believe there is one for a shifter bushing on this model.

@CoachClyde3 ай бұрын
which engines do they have? The ecoboost engines seem to be the ones with issues. The regular 2.5 NA engine doesn't have those issues but most people don't buy that one because it's on the lower trim levels and it's slower than the ones with the turbo.

Nice flip. You should use a torque wrench whenever putting a valve cover gasket back on. They have a torque rating for each vehicle so it doesn't get under or overtorqued. It can leak again. Same with mounting wheels and tires, spark plugs, etc. 😎

To be a "good" dealer and have even repeat customers your right you need to fix anything you find that is wrong. Unless the motor or trans is bad or it is something you do not feel you can do yourself. That is what will make you stand out and get more customers.

That car looks to have the 2.5 engine and not the 1.6 turbo. That is a good engine, the turbo (ecoboost) engines have been the issues for those escapes. The NA engine with no turbo isn't as "fun to drive" and is slower, but it's overall a better engine.

I’m overall you should as a dealer change: Oil, Filters, Spark Plugs, engine air filter and cabin air filter, brake pads and coolant, do a preventative maintenance so if de ask to make a pre purchase inspection the deal will almost be closed, and a good wash on the undercarriage, engine, exterior, and a good cleaning on the inside so you can stand apart from the others
