CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2012 Ford Escape has an acceptable complaint history so far, with leaking rear window problems showing up as the main concern so far. NHTSA complaint data shows an early pattern of problems with stalling while driving.

Another concern is the 2012 Escape rolled onto its roof during an NHTSA side impact test so it only received a marginal side impact rating ... not good.

While driving above 50mph, get a loud thud, thud, sound. Along with a change in interior pressure, or rear wheel problem. Slight vibration noticed. Sound relly hurts ears have to reduce speed below 50 mph. Dealer has failed to make an in depth inspection or test drive SUV. Ford Motor Company has indicated this is within normal operating specifications (more or less). Currently paying for a so called top rtaed Ford product. But I can not enjoy the full capacity of it. More than 30 years of buying a Ford product.
