The spare tire for a 2010 Ford Escape is located under the rear of the vehicle. Look for the tire change tools beneath the carpeting in the rear hatch. After accessing the tools, raise the lower part of the hatch trim to find the mechanism for lowering the tire. You may need to use your lug nut wrench for this. The mechanism can get rusty, especially on a vehicle that's over ten years old, so you might require more force. Insert the jack handle into the middle of the lug wrench for extra leverage, and consider using a rust removal product if needed. It's a good idea to do this maintenance regularly to ensure you can use the spare tire in case of an emergency.
