CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2005 Escape has problems where the engine shuts down while driving. Ford finally issued a September 2014 recall. Time will tell if the recall fix really solves the problem.
However the 2005 Escape also has a defect where the PCM (Power Control Module) fries at around 100k miles. Ford extended the PCM warranty to 80,000 miles, but only after most owners were past the mileage limit. Now owners are on the hook for the average repair cost of over $2,000 (!!)

paint rusting by moon roof opening
I can't believe living in a southern state (originally I'm from Detroit area) that I would get rust on my Ford Escape and in the weirdest place, near the moon roof opening (just behind it). I didnt' event know about it til I looked down from my 2nd story bedroom window of my townhouse! I know it will need repainting , but its frustrating after paying all that money for a vehicle and of course it's out of warranty. Grrrr!
