The rear window has two clamps that attach to the vehicle. The clamps are deteriorating and crumbling to pieces. I have also seen this on other ford escapes. With the clamps falling apart it will only be a matter of time until the rear window will shift or fall off. This same vehicle is rusting also. The rear hatchback is rusting out and other components. Ford motor company refuses to take care of the problem. *tr

I have many concerns that a two year old vehicle could have these type of things…

Purchased a 2010 ford escape new, 4 months after the air conditioning stopped working. Took it to the dealership to have it fixed and they claimed it could not be fixed because it was damaged by an object most likely from the road. Damages are not covered under warranty. The service tech went on to say that the grill does not provide adequate protection for the ac condenser therefore even if i paid to have it fixed…
