Compact SUV · what it costs new, what it’s worth used, and who has one near you.

The 2017 Ford Escape is a compact suv we track across the used market in Canada. It comes in gas (13.3 L/100 km) and hybrid (5.8 L/100 km) forms, so the main choice is fuel — the hybrid earns its premium back over enough kilometres. A 21-year-old one keeps roughly 5% of a current model's market price — what actually matters over five years of ownership.

4 campaigns issued by the manufacturer
Visibility · Power Window Devices and Controls
Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain model year 2017 Ford Escape Titanium and SE vehicles manufactured October 5, 2015, to May 12, 2016. The settings for the closing-force of the power-operated windows may allow the windows to close on an object such as a body part and injure it before the windows auto-reverse. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 118, "Power-Operated Window Systems."
