Overview & Reviews

The 2014 Ford Escape undergoes minor adjustments to its feature availability. Notably, a rearview camera and Sync are now standard on all trim levels. The Titanium trim no longer gets the 2.0-liter turbocharged engine as standard, though Ford has dropped its price as a result. The SEL trim level has been discontinued.

• Good performance and fuel efficiency
• Many high-tech features
• Comfortable seating.
• High-quality cabin
• Agile handling

• Frustrating MyFord Touch electronics interface.

  Non dimming instrument lights - 2014 Ford Escape
  By hueyok - February 16 - 6:10 pm

  The dash lights are suppose to automatically dim with the ambient amount of light. Mine dont and I have had it in the shop several times but to no avail. A Ford Representative said in essense, "that is tough and just live with it". There is no advisory on it yet and so they do not have a fix. I was told they dont plan to make one. Maybe on next years model they will. But according to Ford technicians, this one is designed to do just this. It is a sad fact that Ford will build such complex cars but are unable or unwilling to correct them. Other threads I have read on the internet are experiencing this same problem.

  Making the Ford switch - 2014 Ford Escape
  By jfoehner - January 11 - 10:13 am

  I traded my 2012 Honda CRV for the 2014 Ford Escape to escape the Hondas horrible cabin road noise problem. In my humble opinion, the Honda was built on the cheap, while the Escapes interior materials are much better and the doors dont sound like tin cans.

  Traded up to Titanium 2.0 - 2014 Ford Escape
  By terra4m - January 6 - 2:19 am

  I purchased a 2013 Escape SE 4wd w/ the 1.6L engine and loved the vehicle. I wished I had gone with more features, so I traded it on a 2014 Escape Titanium 4wd with the 2.0L engine and all the goodies. I love this vehicle! Ive owned a lot of cars, from most all manufacturers, including high-end cars, and this new Titanium is my favorite all-around vehicle. I get very good gas mileage, its very comfortable, and the NVH, fit and finish are on par with the luxury brands. Sync w/ MyFordTouch is terrific, and intuitive. I can also use the manual controls easily if I dont want to use the voice or touch controls. Ford has really done a great job with their new vehicles.

  Fun to Drive 2014 Escape Titanium 2.0T 4WD - 2014 Ford Escape
  By escapeman2 - November 22 - 5:38 pm

  I like driving it, I was leasing a Mercedes E350 when I bought the Escape, and I really dont regret buying it, I feel just as comfortable as I was in the E Class, The Touch screen is more complicated than it should be, but it works. Everybody that see the car praises it for the looks, the drive, handling, built quality, etc. I think for the $33K 4WD and 401A package its a good value, its quiet which I like and the stereo is great comparable to the E Class. I really cant wait to drive it every day, its fun, and spacious, Im not a tall person! Even the kids like it better than the E Class, I owned before the ML and R Class but love this one the best

  Bought 2014 SE model two months ago after testing 2014 Mazda CX 5 and 2013 Toyota Rav 4 as contenders. Although it was a difficult decision we decided with the escape after receiving several thousand off and more options then the other two. I have the 1.6 liter engine and has been great accelerating then expected from expert reviews. Although common by many other consumers reviews from the 2013 it has not yet unfortunately lived up to EPA estimates of 22/30 MPG. Highest has been 25.2 on highway after only 900 miles though. We shall see if break in period makes a difference soon enough. As for the talked about My Ford Touch, well I couldnt be any happier! Escape is quiet and handles great.

  Just bought this vehicle and so far I Love it, downsized from a 2012 F150 Supercrew with the Eco-Boost engine and was wondering about feeling cramped inside but it doesnt at all. I got the 1.6 Eco-Boost and so far with only 150 miles on it is getting around 23 miles per gallon mostly around town driving. Plenty of power and love all the options. Panorama roof is great in this summer weather all most like having a convertible. Will let you know more after I have put some more miles on it. Also very sharp car gets looks everywhere we go..
