Well its official. I just purchased this 03 escape from my parents. It has been in their possession since 05 and has been well mantianed. I couldn't pass up the deal especially since we really needed a second car. It is a 3.0 v6 with 116k on the clock. And she drives great.




What are things I should look out for and prepare to replace soonish? I don't know much about escapes. I have always driven f150s. I do think the CV boots are making a little noise and plan on looking into that this weekend. I did replace the struts this spring for them.

 

Just regular maintenance.
The IAC gives issues and the alternator is a pain to replace.

Other than that they are great vehicles.

 

Plugs if ther not done
