When maintaining a 2004 Ford Escape, it's recommended to use Motorcraft Mercon ATF transmission fluid for both the 2L and 3L engines. The 2.0L engine requires 9 quarts of fluid, while the 3.0L engine needs approximately 10.2 quarts. The main function of transmission fluid is to lubricate the engine and extend the transmission's lifespan. Regularly checking the transmission fluid level, ideally on a weekly basis, ensures that the components inside the transmission remain in good condition for long-term use.
