Back Window Leaks During Rain
2012 Ford Escape (Page 1 of 2)
This problem may be covered under warranty. Ask your Ford dealer.
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.

Began leaking under 60k warranty. Dealer put a big ass rubber seal on it and replaced window bolts. I still 6 years later have to slam it shut. However, it still continued to leak and when I went back to the dealer, it was past 60k warranty (62k). Bolts rusted again but work and defrost component rusted and came off. I can see the water run down the back window in little lines or leaves marks visible when the outside is cleaned.
