My wife is uncomfortable with the seat but I love the vehicle. Drives like a car and that is what I like about it the most and it has more balls than other crossovers in its class. Tech is un-matched in it's class. Does it for me.

Wow, you *really* don't like those front seats huh? lol I have the 24 Ford Escape Platinum as well and the wife and I think the seats are super comfortable as does everyone who has taken our car for a test drive. We have many fam, friends, colleagues etc. who also drive Escapes (or have driven them in the past) and none of them have ever complained about the seats either. The one thing I do agree with you on is that I also wish the seats were ventilated. The massage part, meh, that's just gimmicky to me and something I can easily live without (and also see malfunctioning several years down the road) but definitely ventilation would be nice and should be standard in all vehicles across the board in 2024. I know Ford and Stellantis in particular are both behind the times when it comes to ventilated seats in all of their vehicles and hopefully they rectify that failing in the very near future.

IDK why they went with a turbo 3 cyl engine on the lower trims, most people don't want a 3 cyl and don't wanna pay 40K+ USD for a turbo 4 as if that replaced the V6 completely. The car market's gone to sht.

I have an ESCAPE ACTIVE and I find the Seats VERY COMFORTABLE. Not sorry you are not, some people are just Picky!! The Base 3 cyl Turbo 181 Horse has more pickup power than the Equinox 4 Cyl of the same size. Traction Control is on the 13.2 Screen. The round Shifter is Very Simple Compared to the Absolutely STUPID And CONVOLUTED Shifter in a NISSAN ROGUE. Quit your Bitching about the seats.. OH MY GOD….I don’t need a Louder Blinker… OMG… As an ESCAPE LOVER, I HAD MORE THAN ENOUGH OF YOUR COMPLAINING AND SHUT YOU OFF…I am VERY COMFORTABLE IN MY ESCAPE…
