**This one feels almost too new to call used.**

With only 12,104 miles, this 2022 Ford Escape SE AWD has the kind of mileage that immediately changes the conversation. A lot of used SUVs already feel used by the time they hit the market. This one still presents like a near-new vehicle, and that is the hook.

Finished in Agate Black Metallic with Dark Earth Gray cloth interior, this Escape has a clean, simple, modern look. It is not overdone, and it does not need to be. The value is in the condition, the mileage, the all-wheel drive, the clean CARFAX accident history, and the fact that it gives the next owner a newer SUV experience without starting from scratch on a brand-new one.

Power comes from Fords 1.5L EcoBoost engine paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission and AWD. That combination makes sense for everyday driving. It is easy to park, easy to drive, efficient, and confident enough for Midwest weather. The window sticker rates this Escape at 28 MPG combined, with 26 city and 31 highway, which helps keep the ownership cost reasonable for an AWD SUV.

The window sticker shows this Escape carried an original MSRP of $31,605 and came equipped with Equipment Group 200A, 17-inch Shadow Silver-painted aluminum wheels, mini spare wheel and tire, Ford Co-Pilot360, BLIS with Cross-Traffic Alert, rear view camera, Intelligent Access with push-button start, SYNC 3 with 8-inch touchscreen, FordPass Connect, SiriusXM capability, split-fold/sliding rear seat, USB-A and USB-C ports, privacy glass, LED taillamps, and rear spoiler.

That equipment matters because this is the kind of SUV people actually use every day. The AWD system helps in rain and snow. The rear camera and blind-spot system make daily driving easier. The push-button start and SYNC 3 screen keep the cabin feeling modern. The sliding second row and hatchback cargo area make it practical without making the vehicle feel oversized.

The CARFAX story is strong. It shows this as a CARFAX 1-Owner personal lease vehicle, owned in Illinois, with no accidents or damage reported, no total loss, no structural damage reported, no airbag deployment, no odometer rollback, and no title brands reported. CARFAX also shows regular oil changes and 11 service history records.

The low-mileage ownership history is the best part. CARFAX estimates the previous owner drove only about 3,730 miles per year. That is extremely low use for a 2022 SUV, and it helps explain why this Escape presents so well today.

Service history also supports the value. CARFAX shows repeated Buss Ford service, including oil changes, maintenance inspections, tire repair, PCM reprogramming, brake checks, tire condition checks, cabin air filter replacement, and front wiper replacement. The recent Buss Ford prep helps make the vehicle feel ready for the next owner.

For transparency, CARFAX shows open recall/customer satisfaction items, including a PCM software update, SYNC screen update, catalytic converter replacement if required after evaluation, and rear camera replacement if required after dealer evaluation. Buyers should review final recall and program status with the dealer.

Remaining warranty is another meaningful advantage. CARFAX estimates remaining drivetrain warranty coverage of approximately 22 months or 47,901 miles, along with remaining roadside, corrosion, and safety belt/restraint coverage. Buyers should confirm final warranty coverage with the dealer or manufacturer, but that remaining coverage adds confidence compared with older used SUVs.

Market-wise, this Escape is easy to understand. Newer AWD SUVs continue to get expensive quickly, and many used options in this price range have far more mileage. This one gives the next owner a low-mileage, clean-history, AWD Escape SE with modern safety technology, strong fuel economy, remaining drivetrain coverage, and a like-new feel.
