Q: Where can I get a used 2010 Ford Escape Front bumper cover Steel blue Color?
What are my chances at finding one of these in that color at a junk yard? Would I have to get it new?
A: For a 2010? Yeah, you probably need a new one as junk yards wouldn’t have many of them unless they’ve been totaled.
Q: First hand experience pinions on the Ford Escape?
Hello!
I am contemplating the purchase of a “used” Ford Escape as a second vehicle. I have always owned larger vehicles, and when I test drove the one I am contemplating, I discovered it to be a bit “noisier” than I expected. It is not so much “engine” noise, as opposed to “road noise” that I am hearing.
If you own the Ford Escape (or the Mazda Tribute … essentially the same vehicle), I would love to hear your opinions! Thank you!
A: repair parts for these vehicles are expensive, especially if it is a vehicle built for California
Q: Should I buy a used 2010 ford escape or a new 2011 ford focus?
Well it’s actually not me who’s buying it but my mom is buying it for me since I’m 17. I like the ford escapes due to the roominess but I’ve heard of 2008 and 2009 models having transmission problems…and the 2011 ford focus would be good because I could get all the cool features like the gps and sync system…by the way I know nothing about vehicles lol, so which one would be best in your opinion?
A: Personally, I think that the escape looks nicer and like you said, there is more room.
Don’t let what you heard about the transmission discourage you from getting the escape. Besides, what you heard is about 2008 and 2009 models, you’re getting the 2010, right?! 
If you’re leaning towards the Escape, I’d go for it!

Good luck!

Q: The fuel gauge light on my Ford Escape, 2007, is burnt out. How difficult is this to repair?
The warranty might cover it, I just bought it used from the dealership.
It’s not that big a deal, and I’m not sure how much trouble I’m willing to go to over it. What would they have to do in order to repair it?
Thank you.
The back light, for driving at night.
A: The back light for driving at night?
Or the one that tells you you’re out of gas?
Q: Just bought a 2008 Ford Escape. I want to keep the nice finish; What kind of cloth & cleaner should I use?
I just want to polish it up a bit when it rains or gets superficial dust. I don’t want to mark the finish. Should I use a wet fake chamois and water or anything better?
A: Use a super soft polishing cloth for dusting off, or you can try one of the Swiffer dusters.
And when you wash it, dry it off with a damp REAL chamois.
If you decide to wax or polish, use McGuire’s NXT or
Nu-Finish Auto Polish…both are excellent.
Also, ALWAYS use a touchless car wash…any other will put scratches and swirl marks on the finish.
Q: Is there a special tool to release the fuel filter on my 2001 Ford Escape?
It has an in-line filter and appears to have quick release hoses on either side. Has anybody ever used this tool and will the fuel pour out of the line when I disconnect it?
How much do you suppose one of these special tools cost?
A: You can use a pair of pliers to release the fittings. You can also rent a tool from AutoZone.
Good Luck
The circular set is called ” AC/ Fuel Line Disconnect Tool Set ” part # 37000, you can purchase it at O’Reilly auto parts store. AutoZone will have the tool also but different part number.
Q: Highest Mileage I Should Consider For A Used Car?
I am looking into buying my first car, and because I am not the richest guy in the world, it will be used (likely a Ford Escape). I have a lot of options I am looking at, but I am wondering about the highest mileage I should consider. I originally thought 30K miles, but am willing to go higher.
I plan to run the car out, and will likely keep it into the hundred-thousands miles range. I am considering the hybrid, do they last that long?
A: Hybrids are a relatively new technology! It may be better to wait till any problems are ironed out & there are mechanics that can repair them!
Any vehicle of any age or mileage is worth consideration if it has been properly maintained! It may help to know the previous owner & know that the older the car the harder it is to find parts for!
30-50K miles, for the most part, is a good ‘just broken in’ starting point!
Q: How do I fix the boot that I “Herced” on the ball joint of my 2005 ford escape?
Used a ball joint fork. Ya gotta believe me, there wasn’t any other way. Do I just have to suck it up and apply grease everytime I change the tires?
A: You can but replacement boots at Autozone…
Q: How can setup my Ford Escape 2006 radio to work in Europe(even FM Frequency Numbers)?
I have a Ford Escape 2006 that i use in Europe but is manufactered in USA. In Europe FM Stations broadcast only in Even Frequency Numbers. (Like 100.0, 101.4 etc) but my Ford Escape Gets only stations that broadcast on Odd Frequency Numbers (Like 101.7, 107.7, 98.1 etc).

A: Go to a Local Ford dealer and see if they wil swap out your radio, or buy an after market unit.
Q: Should my husband and sell back our 2005 Ford escape for a 2008 Ford escape Hybrid?
We bought a 2005 ford escape from Rich ford about two months ago and think it seems to be a better deal buying a brand new vehicle for maybe a few thousand more with a better warranty and better gas mileage. We live in Sandia PArk so we need something that is going to last us for a long time. We figure why put so much money into a used car that has 35 thousand miles on it when we could buy something NEW. We talked to the dealer down 4 thousand on the used I am sure we can talk them down at least 5 thousand for the hybrid especially if we a re putting cash down. Anyone’s knowledge can help…. any dealers out there??? If you can get us a cheaper and better deal we will buy from you,HAHAHA!
A: i dont suggest the hybrid. i have 2 aunts who work for 2 different honda stores and both of them told me that honda did an unpublished research on the long term effects of the hybrid engine and after 7 years of driving an average of 12000 miles per year, the engine puts out more pollution than a ultra low emissions gasoline engine. The study went unpublished because of the Clinton Administration ordered car dealers to manufacture a vehicle that gets more than 40 miles per gallon while producing low emissions.
My aunts work in the service department.
Q: what size wheels do the 2008 escape use?
i was just wondering what size wheels the 2008 ford escape uses. i was looking at rims but i am not sure what size can fit the escape.
A: 17″ p225/65r17
16″ p235/70r16
Q: ford escape 2002, are they good? and the shifter…?
I’m going to check a used Escape, 2002. It is a bit far from where I live, and I have a couple of questions before I decide on whether I wantto go all the way there to check it out..
1. are these car good, solid and reliable?
2. the shifter is in the console. Does it mean it is manual, auto, or manumatic? and how does it work if so?
-it says it has cruise control. do cruise control ones always come Automatic?
Thanks!!
alright, so it is Auto!
A: 1.) That model escape had a very high rollover rating, but other than that i haven’t heard any negatives.
2.) Shifter on the console could mean any of the three, but i highly doubt that the escape has a “manumatic”. I would bet that it is an auto. I have never seen a manual escape, but it is possible i suppose.
3.) Cruise control goes with either manual or auto.
