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.

Escape XLT 3.2L V6

A D V E R T I S E M E N T S

was taking my son to the ER when I smelled burnt/smoldering wire smell through the A/C vents after hearing what sounded like plugging in a microphone in the popping sounds that it makes. My stereo quit working totally had to pull over and call 911 to make sure my truck wasn't on fire. the previous week I had been hit on the passenger side rear panel prior to this contact my stereo worked fine. When truck went in to be fixed they said fuses were fine as was the wiring but something inside the radio is burnt and that I need to take to the ford dealership for the dash to be pulled and further investigations be done. But USAA wont pay to have it fixed. due to the first repair shop saying the have no real clues to link to the wreck.
