Rear clunking noise Ford Escape 2018 AWD 2.0

Asked by Brad May 29, 2020 at 12:10 PM

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

In warm weather only, I get a loud rear
clunking noise when reversing in my 2018
Ford Escape. Never clunks when I’m at the
dealership of course :)

Though it’s interesting to see others here have
the same issue with 2016 and 2017 AWD 2.0
models.

Same problem with a 2017 Escape SE 2.0 AWD. Had it looked at by Ford dealership and they are replacing the Rear Differential Clutch. Appears to be a known problem with the AWD Escapes. Hope that helps.
