★ Top Answer
Ford Escapes typically have a lifespan of around 150,000 miles, although some owners have pushed theirs to reach 250,000 miles. However, reaching this high mileage is not guaranteed, so it's advisable not to expect your vehicle to last that long. To extend the longevity of your Ford Escape, regular maintenance and check-ups are essential. If you buy a new Ford Escape, it's a smart move to invest in an extended warranty. This way, you can ensure that all maintenance is taken care of on a strict schedule during the initial years of owning the vehicle.

I drive a 2003 model with 389,000 miles on the odometer (I verified the vehicle history), and surprisingly, it still operates smoothly like it's brand new! I can't explain how, but I'm just letting you know that it does.

Oh, you all were just getting it started. My 2002 Escape had piled on more than 727,000 miles before I had to say goodbye to it.

130,000 is laughable; they endure much longer than that.

I just bought a 2014 Escape with a 1.6-liter engine and front-wheel drive, and it has 100,000 kilometers on it. I'm curious about its longevity given some negative feedback on car complaints forums warning to steer clear of it. I thought I had conducted sufficient research, but checking the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) reveals no recalls.

I've had a 2014 Ford Escape that's been problem-free until recently. I had it fully paid off in April 2020 and have been diligent about its maintenance including oil changes, tire rotations, and addressing any recalls. Last week, it started hesitating at stop signs and lights, but would eventually shift into gear. I took it to our trusted local mechanic the next day, and was shocked to hear that the entire transmission needs to be replaced or rebuilt, at a cost ranging from $3100 to $4000. To my dismay, I discovered there is ongoing litigation regarding a recall for the 2014 Ford Escape due to transmission issues. Ford is recalling certain 2013-2014 Ford Escape and 2013-2016 Ford Fusion vehicles with six-speed automatic transmissions, as the transmission shifter cable bushing may detach over time. It's frustrating to realize that the 2014 model year, in particular, has had significant transmission problems, causing cars to stop unexpectedly while driving. Many owners have experienced multiple instances of having to restart their cars during a single trip. It's disappointing that Ford never issued a recall for these transmission issues. I am extremely frustrated and have decided that I will not be purchasing another Ford vehicle in the future.

Here's a paraphrased and unique version of the text: My car has 180,000 miles on it and I drive it every day. It may be noisy, but it's my loudest vehicle yet! People on their cell phones ask me to close my windows, but I have to tell them that my windows are already closed.

I recently upgraded from my 2001 Ford Escape, which I bought brand new, that had 217,000 miles on it. I had replaced the tires, brakes, a few coil packs, and a fuel pump that was located under the back seat on the driver's side and was a quick 10-minute fix. The car always started easily and ran smoothly. I traded in for a pre-owned 2015 Ford Escape.

I recently purchased a 2012 Ford Escape with 130,000 miles on it, and it's working well for now. However, I've come across various opinions about it. The main problem I'm facing is with the MyKey lock feature. I'll need to shell out $350 to Ford to have it replaced so I can disable it. It's limiting me to only turning the radio volume up halfway. Does anyone know a way to bypass this without the costly replacement?

My 2007 Escape XLT with a 4-cylinder Duratech engine and 165 horsepower has clocked in at 150,250 miles. Over the years, I've had to tackle a laundry list of repairs, including replacing the transmission, engine/transmission mounts, A/C compressor clutch and A/C compressor, and rebuilding the A/C system. I've also had to make frequent belt changes, replace tie rods, steering linkages, trans-axel seals and packings, brake lines, parking brake cables, the right window, right aft window motor, valve cover, exhaust flex pipe, and fix a transmission cooler leak on three occasions. Regular maintenance tasks like changing oil and air filters have also been part of the routine.

I drive a 2011 4-cylinder with 160,000 miles on it. Around 90,000 miles, I needed some transmission work done, but it wasn't anything too serious - just a seal, if I recall correctly. Other than that, I've mainly dealt with regular maintenance like brakes and tires. Recently, my heater fan stopped working, and for the past few years, it only operated on the highest setting. Overall, just dealing with minor issues.

Over 213,000 miles on my 2005 car and it broke down yesterday. Ended up getting a 2011 model with around 140,000 miles on it. It wasn't my first choice, but considering the cost compared to a pickup truck, I had to go with what I could afford.
-
In 2007, the vehicle has traveled more than 240,000 kilometers. The transmission and front brake lines have been replaced. Tires and brake pads will need regular replacement. It's important to note that 130,000 miles is equivalent to 210,000 kilometers. Recently, the water pump failed, causing damage to the engine. If the rising temperature gauge had been noticed earlier, it might have been possible to drive the car for another 30,000 kilometers at least.

We own a 2007 Ford Escape Hybrid that has 214,000 miles on it, and it is performing exceptionally well! In our opinion, this is the most reliable vehicle we have ever driven. We have only needed to replace tires and do regular oil changes. We use it daily for a considerable distance, and everything functions perfectly and quietly. Overall, our experience with this car has been outstanding, and we highly recommend the Ford Escape to others. We are extremely satisfied with our 2007 Ford Escape!
-
Over 367,000 miles on a 2007 wedding with a V6 engine. There's a $5 oil seal that needs replacing, but I've been procrastinating. I let the oil run so low that I heard the lifters knocking twice. I've changed three coil packs, the air-conditioning compressor, tie rod ends, and front struts. The truck was backed into, causing enough damage to destroy the radiator, which I had to replace. The only electrical issue has been with the radio lights. Despite all this, I still drive 4000 miles a month and can't seem to kill this resilient truck.

In 2013, what is the maximum speed of an Escape?
-
We own a 2003 vehicle with 320,000 miles, and apart from routine maintenance like brake pads, tires, oil changes, and spark plug replacements every 100,000 miles, it's been trouble-free. Our 2013 car has also been reliable with 230,000 miles on it. As long as you maintain them properly, they can last a long time. The majority of issues arise from owners who would encounter problems with any vehicle.
-
I own a 2006 Ford Escape. Over the years, I've had to replace the ignition coils twice, but other than that, it's just been regular maintenance like changing oil and buying new tires. Even with 249,000 miles on it, my Escape runs great.
-
I drive a 2009 Ford Escape with a manual transmission and 173,000 miles on it. It's been running well, with only regular maintenance like changing brake pads, the battery, alternator, and tie rods. However, I did have to replace the key ignition switch and a belt tensioner wheel. While fixing the tensioner, I also had the water pump replaced for extra assurance. Additionally, I had to replace the a/c evaporator core. Despite these issues, the engine is in good condition. I make sure to use synthetic oil and change it every 7500 miles.

I have driven 143,000 miles on my 2010 Limited 4-cylinder since I purchased it new in December 2009. It’s still running strong, although I’ve encountered a few minor issues. The most frustrating problem I’m facing now is these intermittent TPMS sensor faults. It’s reassuring to hear that many Escapes last well into the 200-300K range.
-
Certainly! Here is a paraphrased and revised version of the original text: "A 2013 Ford Escape with 65,000 miles is listed for $9,000, which seems like a good deal. However, considering it can only last up to 130,000 miles, is it worth it?
-
I've driven my 2010 Ford Escape XLT V6 for over 200,000 miles and it's running well. There have been some slight issues, but overall, it's a great car. I use it as my daily driver, and despite some minor hiccups like the tire pressure sensor fault indicating fine pressure and the occasional oil light when idle, I still consider the Escape a dependable vehicle. I've owned mine nearly since it was brand new, and I'm very satisfied with it!

I own a fantastic vehicle - an American-made trailer with a capacity of 228,000 pounds that I use for work purposes. It's the most reliable vehicle I've ever had, with only needing front brake replacement at 186,000 miles, as well as new tires and a battery. On average, it gets 23 miles per gallon, but when cruising without a trailer, it can reach an impressive 26 miles per gallon.
-
I purchased my 2001 XLT Escape brand new in 2001, and back then it had only 2 miles on the odometer. Fast forward to today, August 30, 2020, and it now has 189,560 miles on it. Unfortunately, I noticed that it started to slow down significantly, currently only running at a sluggish 15-20 mph. I suspect that the issue might be with the transmission. I'm planning to bring it to a nearby mechanic for a diagnostic check to confirm and fix the problem.

I've driven my 2009 Ford Escape for over 320,000 miles since buying it with 90,000 miles on it four years ago. As a Lyft/Uber driver, I've been fortunate to not encounter any major engine or transmission issues, aside from replacing the valve cover gasket once and the transmission seal and bushing three times. However, I've had to replace the suspension multiple times, as well as the front wheel bearings. I made the switch to full synthetic oil upon purchasing the vehicle and regularly keep up with maintenance. Currently, I'm in the process of replacing the motor/transmission mounts. I've also replaced the tensioner twice and the driver-side ABS speed sensor twice. Despite the occasional repairs, I have a strong affection for my Escape.

Our 2014 Ford Escape experienced a complete transmission failure around 130,000 miles, leading us to spend a significant amount to have the transmission rebuilt. Shortly after, we had to have all the tubes replaced due to persistent transmission fluid leaks. The engine compartment is disorganized and difficult for mechanics to access, resulting in high labor costs and difficulties finding shops willing to work on Ford Escapes. One shop even mentioned a gas smell upon starting the vehicle and suggested letting it burn if it catches fire. When inquiring about selling the car, a mechanic indicated that he couldn't in good conscience sell such a problematic vehicle to someone else. Dealing with this car has been a nightmare, and we are eagerly looking forward to parting ways with it.

I own a 2009 Ford Escape XLT 3.0, bought it at 112,000 miles and now it's at 143,000. I had to replace the coils and brakes before purchasing it. The tire pressure sensor has been problematic since the beginning, which is a common issue with this model, but nothing major. The engine runs smoothly and everything else is in good shape. I've noticed a pattern in the feedback from comments and mechanics - the 3.0 engine seems to be more reliable compared to other options for the Ford Escape. My family had other Escapes with different engines that didn't last as long. If you have the 3.0 engine, you're probably in good shape, but if you have a different one, you might want to consider retiring it early to avoid potential breakdowns.

Hey James, when you say that an Escape doesn't last more than 150,000 miles, you're not quite accurate. Before 2013, the square-shaped Ford Escapes were commonly used as taxis in New York City, often reaching over 300,000 miles. People who don't use their cars for transportation extensively may reach only 150,000 miles in 15 to 20 years. Most Americans change their cars every 5 years, so it's rare to see a 2015 Escape with 200,000 miles unless it's a taxi or Uber. I know someone who owns three older cars, including a Chevy Trailblazer and a Volvo from 2010, none of which have more than 150,000 miles. This is why you don't see Escapes with high mileage, as most vehicles with over 300,000 miles are usually found in taxi fleets. Uber drivers try not to accumulate too many miles on their cars to maintain their value.
-
I live in Fort Myers, Florida and drive for Uber with my 2014 Escape S, a great car equipped with a 4-cylinder 2.5-liter engine. Many Uber drivers in this area also use Escapes and a guy I know is already on his third one. The first two reached nearly 300,000 miles before he got another one, and all were still running well. Now he has a hybrid, having previously owned a 2015 and a 2017 model, which were also great. So, don't tell me that all Escapes are good, as there can be some duds in every brand. I've seen Japanese and Korean cars at the airport here breaking down before hitting 200,000 miles - or around that mark. Many of these vehicles are not reliable.
-
It appears that the most durable cars are those made in 2012 or earlier, which I believe were actually manufactured by Mazda. On the other hand, those made in 2013 and onward are from Ford.
-
I drive a 2008 car with a 3-liter engine that has just hit over 436,000 miles. I often rev the engine above 5,500 rpm, and the only issue I've come across is having to frequently replace the rear half shafts due to their weakness. I'm considering getting custom shafts to solve this problem.

My 2003 V6 Escape with around 320,000 miles has been a reliable ride, mostly driven on highways except for a year when it was parked. It has had minimal repairs with the original engine and transmission still going strong. Surprisingly, I find myself preferring it over my 2011 Escape AWD 4-cylinder, which has had ongoing issues with bearings and suspension despite having 185,000 miles. The 2011 model has had the transmission replaced once and the wheel bearings changed at least three times, along with other repairs. I often drive off-road for work, and I initially thought the AWD feature would be perfect for my needs, but it turns out that the constant engagement of the AWD system may not be well-suited for my driving style in muddy terrains. I've come to realize that AWD may be more beneficial for snowy conditions rather than muddy off-road tracks.
The 2013 AWD model has been effective in navigating through rough mud, but the maintenance costs outweigh the benefits. I have found that sticking with the older 2WD model and either walking or seeking help from a passerby in challenging situations is a more practical solution. The V6 engine in my 2003 Escape has made me determined to never go back to a 4-cylinder engine, especially in a heavy vehicle like this SUV. The better gas mileage achieved by the 2WD 6-cylinder Escape compared to the AWD 4-cylinder 2011 model has solidified my appreciation for the older vehicle.
Initially, I contemplated selling my 2003 Escape but now I am grateful I didn't. I plan on maintaining my older model and will consider replacing the engine or transmission if needed, as it would be more economical than purchasing a new car. Additionally, I have learned the importance of opting for one-owner vehicles with predominantly highway miles, as city driving can take a toll on both the driver and the car. It's also become apparent to me that a 4-cylinder engine may not be as fuel-efficient if it's working harder to support the weight of the vehicle. I believe that a V6 engine offers a good balance of gas mileage and power, particularly for a heavy SUV like mine. -
Just reached the 200,000-mile mark with my car. The engine is incredibly reliable, but I've had to replace the transmission four times - first at 18,000 miles and most recently at 126,000 miles. Luckily, I had purchased an extended warranty.
-
I purchased a used 2010 Ford Escape with 90,000 miles on it. Since then, it has accumulated a total of 336,000 kilometers. I've been diligent about getting it serviced every 10,000 kilometers, replacing the tires and brakes as needed. The eco fuel sensor failed at 280,000 kilometers and hasn't been replaced. Currently, the differential is leaking, and the transmission has failed. I've been given an estimate of $3,000 to $7,000 for a rebuild, including labor costs. However, I don't plan on getting it repaired as I already have about $1,000 worth of other repairs that need to be addressed.

In 2008, my Ford Escape with a 4-cylinder engine has clocked 210,000 miles without any engine problems. The only issues I've encountered are related to the brakes. I'm hoping the car gives out soon so I have a reason to upgrade, but it's running smoothly without any signs of trouble.
-
My 2011 Escape V6 has 174,000 miles on it. I make sure to change the oil regularly, and I find changing the transmission fluid to be simpler than changing the engine oil. I've also replaced the coils, plugs, front brake hoses, shocks/struts, brakes, sway bar links, control arms, AC compressor, and purge valve. Unfortunately, I am now noticing some rust on the rear fender wheel wells.

I just bought a 2014 Escape 1.6L with 100,000 kilometers on it. The VIN report shows no current recalls. However, after checking a car complaints forum, the general advice is to steer clear of this model. This is causing me a lot of worry.

If your car has over 200,000 miles on it, that's impressive! I'm curious about the level of maintenance you must have done. Did you have to replace the transmission, engine, or any other important parts? Was the recall repair for the transmission free, and did it fix the issue, such as with the steering or other components?

I have put 132,000 miles on my 2003 XLT V6. Recently, I had to replace the coils and plugs. Other than that, the routine maintenance includes oil changes, tire replacements, and front brake pads. I also added a new muffler and had to remove the two factory running boards (due to rust) to pass inspection. There is one rust-through hole on the rear fender well.

I own a 2007 Ford Escape with over 230,000 miles on the original engine. I've kept up with regular oil changes, been through 4 sets of tires and replaced the batteries twice. Recently, I had to have the alternator and air conditioning compressor replaced. Fortunately, I won't be out of pocket for the compressor. Despite these repairs, our 2007 Escape has been a fantastic vehicle.

In 2008, a Ford Escape with 208,000 miles experienced a power steering sensor recall in 2014, which Ford addressed. However, in 2020, the steering column assembly malfunctioned, requiring a costly $2,800 repair at a Ford dealership. Despite consumer litigation, it was deemed baseless. Ford did not recall the new issue, despite the past power sensor problem. Although the vehicle is generally reliable, the high cost of fixing the recent issue in relation to its age and mileage is a concern.

I've got a 2012 car with 197 thousand miles and counting. The only major thing I've had to replace is the exhaust system, and I've done some minor repairs too. Overall, it runs great and I'm really happy with my purchase.

I've traveled a total of 241,894 miles.

I own a 2001 Ford Escape XLT with 305,000 miles and a 2003 Escape with 352,000 miles, and they're both still in good working condition. The 2003 Escape runs better, but I am the second owner and have taken excellent care of it. Originally, the 2001 was meant to be used as a parts vehicle, but it turned out to be a reliable backup for everyday driving. Both of them are great SUVs.

I've driven 206,000 miles on my vehicle, and although the subframe broke at 140,000 miles, it got replaced and it's still running perfectly fine.

My 2007 Escape Hybrid recently hit the 200,000-mile mark and it's still going strong. I did have to get the water pump replaced, but it was covered by a recall, so Ford gave me a refund. This car is the best one I've ever had.

This is total nonsense, my 2013 Ford Escape has surpassed 110,000 miles and is still running smoothly.

My first engine has 11,000 miles on it and the second engine may be failing after only 2,000 miles. It appears that there might be a design issue with the 1.5 engine.
