2001 escape xlt . Rear Differential Fluid level question. Dana differential. I have gotten different answers about the rear differential fluid level. Which is correct ? I know the supposed amount of fluid required. My question is: Some say fluid level should be AT  the lower plug, Some say it should be 1/2 to 3/4 inches Below the lower plug. Which is Correct ? Thanks

2020 seat memory stopped working after changing battery, the mirrors move though. Does anyone know the fix for this?

When the outside temperature is about 35 degrees Fahrenheit or colder, the power distribution panel shows power is going to all four wheels. Regardless of the speed or distance driven, the panel never shows just the front wheels receiving power. If the outside temperature is above 35 degrees, the panel shows only the front wheels being powered after a short distance I have taken the car to the dealer and they claim they cannot find anything wrong. They road tested the vehicle and said  everything was OK. Outside temperature was about 44 degrees during the road test. The dealer has not been able to find any other occurence of this problem.    Does anyone have a similar problem or know how I can contact someone in Ford emgomeeromg that might be able to solve this issue?

I strongly prefer the 2022.  The HVAC controls are not buried on the touchscreen.  I like the aesthetics of the front end better than the 2023's.

I traded my 2019 Fusion PHEV for a 2022 Escape Titanium PHEV for the increased EV range and utility.  I'm delighted with it.  I am very glad that I have the Titanium because if has, among other things, heated seats and steering wheel AND Ford 360+ driver assist features.  Note the "+".  Its lane CENTERING is fantastic, along with INTELLIGENT cruise control - automatically adjusts vehicle speed to the changing speed limit.  I also prefer the 2022 to the 2023, because the HVAC controls are physical, not buried in the touchscreen.

Judging from the market on these I would be willing to take $1200 for the set, I can deliver locally up to 50 miles from zip code 01376 or ship at buyers cost.  Thanks for looking.  I can email pics if interested.

Hello, new member but long time Escape owner. I’ve had a ‘05 3.0L Escape and Mariner and currently an ‘07 Escape 3.0L.  I’ve had it for 5 year now and all of the sudden ran into a high idle problem.   At cold startup it would idle at about 2000 rpm’s and then drop to about 1500.  After researching it sounded like the IAC valve was the culprit. When I unplugged it sure enough the rpm’s would drop to 750ish. I went ahead and replaced it on Monday.  The rpm’s went down to about 1300 at startup and 900 at normal temperature. But it sounds like it should be about 750.  Today I performed the idle relearn procedure but it didn’t change anything. It’s still about 900ish and about 750 when stopping in traffic with the brake pressed.  Was the IAC not the real problem?  Any suggestions on what else to look for?  Thanks in advance!

I have a front wheel drive escape plugin.  I do not get power to all 4 wheels.   The Ford service guy told me to run the warmup cycle during charging to get power to the 12-volt battery during the charging.  This shuts the battery saver notification down and turns the interior light on when I open the door, but it is effective for only one day. The alternative, he said, was to buy a charger.  Other forums offer a larger battery as a fix.  Comments about that idea bring concern about voiding the warranty.  

Looking to see if there is any interest from the forum in buying a set of 19" wheels and new tires w/TPMS sensors for sale.  I purchased an aftermarket set of 20" rims and tires and looking to unload these.  Tires are new less than 250 miles on them.  Rims have 31k on them and are perfect condition.  I live in Western MA. so I can do local pick up or buyer would pay for actual shipping charges.  Let me know if you are interested, I will post pics later today.  I'm not posting a price because I'm new to the escape vehicle and not sure on what the market is; feel free to make an offer and I will get back to you.  Thank you, for looking and I look forward to participating in the forums.  Just a little background I have been a service advisor, service manager and parts manager for ford so I may be able to help with general questions.

Battery doesn't have the cold cranking amps to get started below freezing. Go to Auto Zone and have them check your battery with a meter. If it fails the test during cold weather, they may recommend getting a new battery.
