CarComplaints.com Notes: The top problem trend for the 2014 Escape is transmission failure at around 70k miles.
This is relatively low mileage for an expensive transmission failure ($4,500 average to fix), but unless the trend becomes more established, we are only awarding the 2014 Escape our "Beware of the Clunker" badge for now.
I am thankful I am single and don't haul anybody in the back. because the person would not be able to get out of the vehicle. When they slap these vehicles together they don't take the time to make sure and do it right the first time. I bought the vehicle new and am very disappointed with everything i've had to have done. I have had a new battery installed which is covered under warranty. I had to get new tail lights put on because there was moisture on the inside of the lense, which, as of today I still have moisture inside the lenses. My temperature display on the radio information display sometimes doesn't show up. My solution to all vehicle problems is not mass producing them. They don't need 3 shifts to make vehicles. If car companies would slow the assemby lines down and not make them 24 hours a day things would be better.
