In this video I go over what is becoming more and more of an issue with this generation of Escapes due to the poor lift gate glass seal leaking rain water into the latch and electronics in the lift gate. I go over the cause, how to gain access, diagnosis, and of course repair.

Hi,
Thanks for the video, my 08 escape has been driving me crazy when the liftgate would "pop" when I started the car or whenever it wanted to, and then when I wanted it to open ...nothing!! Do you have the part numbers for the switch mechanism and the new rubber stripping?
Also, thanks for the video on the ABS tone ring, one of mine broke the other day and I replaced it today. Thanks to your video, had no problems fixing this.

It is all based off your vin and certain date breaks so your vin at the dealer parts counter is best.
