I bought this vehicle used from a dealership in virginia and there is extreme premature frame corrosion and rust. The exterior body does not exhibit spots or surface rust on visible body panels. The mechanic informed me that the entire frame is rusted and is cracked under bed and rear wheel wells. The frame may no longer support weight of vehicle due to the rust holes and longitudinal cracks formed on the bottom and side frame surfaces at the stress point before the rear wheel bend. This car will not pass the state inspection. Ford is aware of the problem and has recalled 385,762 Ford escape models-year 2001-2004 for the same problem.
