I have had this 'Cute UTE' 6 months now. I've average 32.5 mpg over that time. There have been no problems with anything. The ride remains easy and well controlled. The sound system is really a fine setup. I've loaded perhaps 40 CDs into the Hard Drive and enjoy the use of the system. I really find the navigation system a plus. I like keying in a destination address and letting the computer direct me to my destination ... my hands and mind are on my driving the entire distance. I have never ended up in the wrong place. I think it a great system.
I've had no problems with the breaking, the steering, roll, noise, or any other item for that matter. I had a 1991 Ford Tempo that had the 2.3 liter engine, the one bored out to make this 2.5 liter engine in the Escort. Now it was noisey ... lots of engine noise on acceleration. Maybe that influences my opinion that the engine noise of the 2009 Escape Hybrid is a non-issue for me.
The only issue I have with this 2009 Ford Escape Hybrid is the distractions I experience by taking my eyes off the road to check the map, set the cruise control (by use of the cruise control and gas pedal maipulation I can get cruise control at 40 mph in full electric mode), using the voice recognition system, or using any aspect of the navigation system. Maybe this distraction will diminish with time and useage. However it all still really fascinates me.
Ford really put together a great package with this 2009 SUV Hybrid.
