I have a 2002 Ford Escape XLT. Had a front end collision at low speed 3 weeks ago when I hit someone who went through a stop sign. Radiator, transmission cooler and several related lnes were replaced as well as front bumper. Yesterday, right before pulling onto highway, the front right frame catostrophically failed. If it happened on the highway, I wouldn't be here to write this. Ford dealer and insurance adjuster say it was due to rot. Seriously, after 77,000 miles the frame is shot? What a piece of shit. I will be fighting with Ford I guess for reimbursement but don't anticipate success. maybe it wasn't due to the collision, but what kind of inspection are they doing for damage due to collision?
