Easy to take out.

If you have a 2010 Ford Escape, at some point you'll need to reset different lights and systems, including the anti-theft system. To do this, start by going to the front of your car and opening the hood. Find the positive cable connected to the battery, and disconnect it. Then, turn the ignition to the on or run position. Reconnect the positive cable to the battery, ensuring it's secure. Turn the ignition off and then on again. Finally, start the engine, and the anti-theft light should be reset.
