Oil leak.
So my truck went into the shop today. 2015 xlt 2.7. 37000 miles and exactly an year old.
Went in to change the oil on this truck the other night. My first time atempting an oil change on it. I observed oil dripping from the pan. Seems like the point of the lea was at the oil pan gasket.
Just a warning to everyone out there. Make sure you get under the truck yourself every once on a while. It will save a lot of heart ache later on.
I would have never known about the leak if i didnr get under there myself. I park on the grass so theres little chance i would see it on the ground.
Dealer was swamped so the left me witha brand new 2017 escape se as a loaner. This suv is underwhelming to say the least. I liksd the old escapes but this one feels like a focus with a slightly different body on it.
Sucks not boeng able to plug in my phone charger to a 110 outlet and have it fast charge.
