The top negative thing about this car is the failing of the backup camera. One last pro, would be the buttons on the steering wheel, which help control the radio, volume, cruise control, answer phone calls, and use voice activation.
2011 FORD ESCAPE XLS DRIVER
The blind spot mirrors are a pro, they really help the driver in ensuring they are aware of what is around the vehicle at all times while behind the wheel. The car is not too big and it is not too small, it is just the right size. The size of the vehicle is a pro, you get the comfort of being in a raised SUV, while still being compact enough to drive without too much thought. One a cold morning it takes no time for the warmers to heat up the seat and keep you warm, it also feels very nice if you are experiencing some lower back discomfort. The seat warmers in the car are another pro. The sensors as well are in my opinion a bit more helpful than the backup camera as they really help gage how close your vehicle is to an obstruction. The pros to this vehicle are the backup camera, despite how the backup camera has been working recently, when the camera does work it is beyond helpful and something I can not drive without now that I have had one. The side view mirrors also have blind spot mirrors on them which is a very nice safety feature that I enjoy and since having I could not be without. The gas mileage on the car is not too bad I drive the car everyday and fill up once a week, averaging around 18-20 miles per gallon with a 13 gallon tank. It really is a hit or miss with the camera, but the backup sensors have never failed me and helped me time and time again. However within the past year the backup camera in the car has deteriorated and does not always work, sometimes the picture is cut in half, sometimes it just shows a blank screen, and sometimes it works perfectly. I had one tire pressure sensor go out, one replaceable recall, and another recall that was not recommended for replacement.
In eight years of ownership I have not had too many problems with the car. This is a very unique feature and not something I have seen on other vehicles. The limited trim comes with a back up camera that pops up in the rearview mirror.
It is an SUV, however, a relatively small one, so it is very easy to get into smaller parking spots. What I like about my vehicle is the size of it.
