how do I tell if it is 4WD

Asked by hawfinch Feb 22, 2013 at 11:16 PM about the 2012 Ford Escape XLT FWD

Question type: General

I've just picked up a rental - it is supposed to be 4WD, but how can I confirm that??

5 Answers

The driveshaft will go into a transfer case, to transfer power to the rear wheels as well. no transfer case = two wheel drive.

If it is an 2012 Ford Escape SUV AWD is standard. All of them are.

My title says 2005 Ford escape XLT 4WD I sold this vehicle 3 months after buying it. The man contacts me the next day and says the shop he took it to says it's 2WD. I posted as 4WD now he wants to take me to court. I don't understand how this is my fault?
