Engineering Insight
Worldwide Testing Helps Ensure Quality,
Reliability and Durability
Escape has undergone rigorous testing in locations worldwide
to examine specific aspects of the vehicle. “We tested brakes
in the Grossglockner Mountains of the Swiss Alps and in
Mexico,” reports one Escape engineer. “There’s a three-and-a-
half-mile descent from Mexico City to Puerto Vallarta that
requires almost constant brake use to stay on the road. We
gave a few Escape SUVs to Las Vegas taxi companies.
They’re notoriously tough on transmissions and it gave us a
good insight into Escape’s durability. The Royal Canadian
Mounted Police and the Denver Police Department also tested
Escape in their high-altitude, high-demand environments.”
• Stylish and features quality, reliability and durability
• 100,000-mile scheduled tune-up interval results in less time and money spent on routine
tune-ups under normal driving conditions with regular fluid and filter changes
• Extended lifetime service intervals for automatic transmission, and for rear-wheel power takeoff
and rear differential (4WD models — 150,000 miles under normal driving conditions)
