05/07/21 Last week I noticed the paint peeling around the windshield on my 2017 Ford Titanium. I work at a dealership and the Body Shop Manager looked at it and said to take it to a Ford Dealer as it appeared to be a paint defect. Ford Dealership said not covered as my warranty has expired. There is clearly some kind of defect with the paint and Ford needs to take responsibility. I loved my Escape and had nothing bad to say about it, but if Ford won't stand behind their workmanship I will never recommend or purchase another Ford vehicle.
