Known issues to check on a 2019 Ford Escape
- 1.5L EcoBoost Coolant Intrusion (2017-2019) (2017–2019)
Some 2017-2019 Escapes with the 1.5L EcoBoost four-cylinder developed coolant intrusion into a cylinder, causing low coolant, white exhaust smoke or rough running. Ford offered a one-time short-block repair under a warranty extension (7 years/84,000 miles, with a deadline for older vehicles). Many vehicles may now be outside that coverage.
What to do: Ask whether the engine was repaired under Ford's program, and walk away from unexplained coolant loss. - Shifter Cable Bushing Recall (Rollaway Risk) (2013–2019)
Ford recalled 2013-2019 Escapes because the bushing that attaches the shifter cable to the transmission can degrade or detach. The vehicle could then be in a different gear than the shifter shows, including not being in Park, which creates a rollaway risk.
What to do: Confirm the shifter bushing recall is complete before purchase. - Generation and Engine Disambiguation (2011–2026)
The Escape covered here spans three very different generations: the boxy 2011-2012 model (2.5L, 3.0L V6, Hybrid), the 2013-2019 model (2.5L, 1.6L/1.5L/2.0L EcoBoost) and the 2020-2026 model (1.5L three-cylinder, 2.0L EcoBoost, Hybrid, Plug-in Hybrid). Two different 1.5L engines exist: a four-cylinder in 2017-2019 and a three-cylinder from 2020.
What to do: Confirm year, engine and drivetrain before comparing prices or specs.
Recall applicability varies by model year, production date, engine, drivetrain and VIN. Check the VIN for open recalls and completed remedies, including repeat repairs on fuel-injector and engine recalls.
