CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2007 Ford Escape looks pretty good compared to other Ford Escape model years, but still has a trend of transmission problems, so it's not a model year we can recommend.
Also the base model Escape did not come with side airbags so it received a "Poor" rating from the IIHS for side impact protection. Other similar 2007 models like the Toyota RAV4, Honda CR-V & Hyundai Santa Fe scored far better.

The passenger side rear shock assembly totally rusted away from the frame. The car has only 133,000 miles on it and is stored inside. Body shop says they have seen many of the same issues on Ford Escapes. Checked with three mechanics-Car-X, Strange Garage, Walter's Garage. All three verified that they have seen this problem over and over with the Ford Escape. Loved the car but this shouldn't happen on a low mileage car that is stored inside. I have replaced the transmission twice-once Ford paid for it and the second time I did.
