Ford Escape The Ford Escape has been thoroughly updated, reinforcing the character and appeal that have made it America's perennial best-selling small sport-utility vehicle. The improvements nearly cover the spectrum, and inject a new level of refinement. We'd call the Escape a little truck among small SUVs. Its new styling deliberately invokes Ford's larger, truck-based SUVs.

Default transponder key programming

I need a second key for my 2004 Escape. I understand they are available online but the programming costs an arm and a leg. I called a bunch of local locksmiths and they quote me the same as a Ford dealership ($65 - $75) just for the programming.

Does anyone have a less expensive suggestion?

Thanks,

Ed

Not unless you have 2 programed keys already.

If I had two I wouldn't have asked the question.

Try your local Car Alarm/Remote starter installer, they have the equipment and may cut you a better deal.
