Towing Your Escape
Towing your vehicle behind
an RV or any other vehicle
may be limited. Refer to
Towing the Vehicle on
Four Wheels section in the
Towing chapter of your
Owner’s Manual.
Tire Pressure
Monitoring System
Your vehicle illuminates a
low tire pressure warning
light
in your instrument
cluster when one or more
of your tires are significantly
underinflated. If this
happens, stop and check
your tires as soon as
possible. Inflate them to
the proper pressure. Refer
to the Inflating Your Tires
section in the Wheels
and Tires chapter of
your Owner’s Manual for
more information.
Fuel-efficient
Transmission
Your vehicle has been
designed to improve fuel
economy by reducing fuel
usage while coasting or
decelerating. This may
be perceived as a light to
medium braking sensation
when removing your foot
from the accelerator pedal.

opposite window slightly to
reduce this noise. Press the
switch to open the window.

the window.
Front and Rear

This system sounds an
audible warning tone if
there is an obstacle near

moves closer to the
obstacle, the rate of the
warning tone increases
in frequency. The front
sensors are automatically
activated when the vehicle
is in D (Drive) and the
vehicle speed is below
6 mph (10 km/h). The
system will detect objects
up to 27 inches (70 cm)
away from the front of the
vehicle and about 14 inches
(35 cm) to the side of the
front end. The rear sensors
are active only when the

Fuel Tank Capacity/
Fuel Info
Your vehicle has a 15.4
gallon (58.5L) fuel tank
capacity. If your vehicle is
not a flexible fuel vehicle,
then only use unleaded fuel
or unleaded fuel blended
with a maximum of 15%
ethanol. Do not use fuel
ethanol (E85), diesel,
fuel-methanol, leaded
fuel or any other fuel
because it could damage
or impair the emission
control system.
Easy Fuel® System
With this system, you
simply open the fuel door,
insert the nozzle and begin
fueling. It is self-sealing
and therefore protected
against dust, dirt, water,
snow and ice.
Wait 5–10 seconds from
the time the refueling
nozzle is shut-off until you
remove the nozzle from the
vehicle to allow residual
fuel in the nozzle to drain
into the tank. When using
a portable fuel container,
slowly insert the fuel funnel
(located in the spare tire
compartment), and pour
the fuel into the funnel.
Note: Do not use
aftermarket funnels as they
will not work with the Easy
Fuel system and may cause
damage. Properly clean the
funnel after each use.Location of
Spare Tire and Tools
Your spare tire and tools
are located beneath the
carpeted load floor in the
rear of your vehicle. The
spare tire is designed for
emergency use only and
should be replaced as soon
as possible. For complete
details on changing your
tire, refer to the Changing a
Road Wheel section in the
Wheels and Tires chapter
of your Owner’s Manual.
SOS Post-Crash
