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.

I bought a used 05 FEH with 80K last winter with no appreciable history of defects. I had just normal maintenance and recall work done until lately, when the differential bearing failed and it cost $1,600 to repair. The service manager said there was no record of that part being a particular problem on the hybrids, however.
