CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2007 Ford Escape looks pretty good compared to other Ford Escape model years, but still has a trend of transmission problems, so it's not a model year we can recommend.
Also the base model Escape did not come with side airbags so it received a "Poor" rating from the IIHS for side impact protection. Other similar 2007 models like the Toyota RAV4, Honda CR-V & Hyundai Santa Fe scored far better.

I told my daughter to buy this Ford Escape because this used car salesman told me what a great deal it was. Ever since my husband passed away, these people see me coming. We paid all the money we had because she had to get to work at a fast-food place at 5am to make the biscuits. If she misses work, her close to full time hours go down to near nothing. After a couple of months, the alternator goes bad. Replaced. Couldn't afford a real mechanic. Almost immediately, battery light comes on and battery dies.
I took it to a real mechanic. Driving out of his parking lot, something is still wrong. Some kind I bolt he said. Hundreds of dollars later, told it was fixed. Worked for maybe 2 days. Battery constantly going bad. Tomorrow we are taking it to another real mechanic with money we managed to save since last time. Now we have used up all the roadside assistance calls. I am reading all about how I should not have advised her to buy this vehicle and we have no way of getting another.
The people responsible for the design of this car should be ashamed. Some of us don't have the money to go to a dealership. Now three women don't have road-side assistance. Last year they found my daughters childhood friend's remains on the property of a local college after she was missing for almost 2 years. Do these people really know what their greedy actions can lead to, or do they even care?
