Engine has a crack, coolant leaking in one of the cylinders. New engine comes with a 3 year warranty. Car has 85,000 miles, body is in good condition. Will need new tires soon. I appreciate the options and will need to consider each of them.
Just found out that my 2014 Ford escape needs a new engine. My wife and I share this car and were planning on trading it in when the Bronco comes.
Ironically, I had a 7 year extended warranty that ended in July and now 3 months later this happens. Originally, like most people I thought I would...
In my case, I received the updated email from Ford and when checking my account on the Ford Owner site it did update my trim change from OBX to a Badlands.
Thanks for posting. I have a 2 door on order I will be looking for a solution with. I currently have a Yakima rack that is not a tray style. It tilts down with the bikes off, in order to open the back hatch. Works well on our Escape. I use it all the time and was hoping to use it with the...
Thank you for all the info! I remeasured the door opening and I am at 77.75. I think I should be ok. If it's too close, I could remove the roof rack and only use when needed. I have been thinking of switching my build to a Badlands after attending the Off-Rodeo in Moab. It was great!
Does someone have a stock 2 door Badlands with roof rack, that could measure the height for me from the ground to the top of the roof rack?
I am trying to figure out if it will fit through my garage door opening which is 77.5 inches.
Thank you!
I ended up changing my trim from a BB to a OB to get the 4A. I just returned from a road trip to the Off Rodeo in Moab. Went over the Willamette Pass in Oregon back to Portland and ran through an unexpected snow blizzard at 5000 feet. Had to drive slow and easy in my ford escape.
Was glad I...
I also attended the Moab location last week (October 6th). Made a road trip out of it from Portland OR. Stayed at some hotels and the KOA there in Moab.
The event was way above by my expectations and first class. It helped keep me enthused while I wait for mine! I am only getting the rear...
Thanks for all your input. I ended up changing my trim from the BB to the OB to get the 4A and stuck with the 2.7. It will be our only vehicle and I didn't want to regret not getting it. I think it will be a good addition to have for us, living in the NW and traveling over passes in the...
Thanks,
I have seen some threads on the topic including this info from Ford.

Which has got me more interested, hence me rethinking my build. I currently have a Escape with Intelligent 4 wheel drive...
I have had almost a year to think about my build and am now questioning it. I was choosing between the BB and the OBX. I ordered a (BB/2 door/MID pkg/2.7/Sig lighting/tube steps/Roof rails/Tow pkg/Rear locker).
This will be my daily driver for both myself and my wife. We don't plan on doing...
