CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2005 Escape has problems where the engine shuts down while driving. Ford finally issued a September 2014 recall. Time will tell if the recall fix really solves the problem.
However the 2005 Escape also has a defect where the PCM (Power Control Module) fries at around 100k miles. Ford extended the PCM warranty to 80,000 miles, but only after most owners were past the mileage limit. Now owners are on the hook for the average repair cost of over $2,000 (!!)

At about 56000 miles the brake pedal began to make noise as it was depressed and would go all the way to the floor on occasions. The car stops well when the brakes are hit hard but I think I have a master cylinder or brake booster going out.
