Please check out this web site for more information about your car. Sorry, but, your car is not highly regarded. Take a look at all the transmission problems with your car. If you can, I would bail. http://www.carcomplaints.com/Ford/Escape/2002/

Just how many miles are on your car? If you have AAA Premier, they will tow your car up to 100 miles at no additional charge. So, we're not just talking about your A/C, but your cooling system and transmission. That's three system failures at once. Just how much money do you want to invest and you probably already read the link I sent you earlier. This vehicle is not doing well. Consider an alternative vehicle instead of fixing this. Sorry. Asian cars, particularly Honda , Toyota and Subaru are a safer bet. Good luck.

My 2008 Ford Escape AWD floor matts keep getting soaked. I thought I had fixed it by making sure the sunroof was closed properly, but it has continued. I have tried to figure out where this is coming from and finally after drying them out again I laid under the the vehicle and both on the drivers side in the middle of the front floor area and the passanger side there is a small hole about the size of a dine right in the middle. That would account for the water coming in after rain storms and such, but why would these two holes be there? Was there a drain area there with plugs and they are missing? Can I have a piece of metal welded over them? Don't know why they would be there. Doesn't seem to be a rust issue as it is frim all around these small holes. 7 Answers

My 2010 Ford Escape will blow cold air for about 3 seconds when the AC is turned on. I checked the compressor and the clutch will engage for those first couple seconds and then stop completely. I thought it might be low on freon, but when I went to check the low pressure, I got a low pressure reading of 100, which is way too high. My guess is the relay is done or maybe the compressor. Any advice? 1 Answer
