CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2012 Ford Escape has an acceptable complaint history so far, with leaking rear window problems showing up as the main concern so far. NHTSA complaint data shows an early pattern of problems with stalling while driving.
Another concern is the 2012 Escape rolled onto its roof during an NHTSA side impact test so it only received a marginal side impact rating ... not good.

Note received from the warranty company:
The glass hinges fail due to a manufacturers defect that causes them to internally corrode and fall apart. From what I am aware, only the Escape uses these hinges and they have been an issue for them. Unfortunately the glass hinges corroding and falling apart is not something the policy covers. We wouldn't be able to help out with this type of repair.
