2012 Ford Escape Oil Capacity

The 2012 Ford Escape’s oil capacity depends on which engine it has: the 2.5L Duratec takes 5.0 qt, while the Duratec takes 6.0 qt. Both use 5W-20 oil. Match the engine name in the catalog to your vehicle before using the capacity figure; the numbers are not interchangeable.

Read each capacity as the listed oil amount for that engine, and use the accompanying viscosity specification to select the oil. The figures differ by engine, not by a stated trim in these facts. They do not specify whether the amount includes an oil-filter change or provide another engine or trim variation, so confirm any figure not listed here on the door jamb or in the owner’s manual.
