We have a 2003 Escape V6 with 70,000 miles, noticed 2 weeks ago paint is peeling on the top behind th sun roof and on the drivers side door. Fords say because it is out of warranty they will only pay 60/40. Is there any suggestions on who to contact at Fords to get help. We feel that Fords should take care of the repainting of the Escape. Thanks

The bad news came when I was told they had to take the drive shaft off to change it. 5-7 hours labor.

Escape 2.0 XLT 2001 Replaced the alternator a year ago, Mar 2007 with a reconditioned one. The original is double the price. Replaced the battery in June 2006 and again today Mar 2008.
