★ Top Answer
For the 2017 Ford Escape, the recommended coolant is Prestone Extended Life 50/50 Dex-Cool. Spark plugs typically need to be replaced every 100,000 miles, unless you have a copper one, in which case it should be done every 30,000 miles. The air filter should be changed between 15,000 to 30,000 miles. Coolant replacement is necessary every 60,000 miles. Be vigilant for engine issues like loose gaskets, spark plug detachment, and the serious risk of engine overheating, potentially leading to fires or even explosion. Watch out for excessive oil consumption, which may necessitate more frequent oil changes, and address oil leaks promptly.
