Hi all:
We just purchased a 2005 Escape XLT V6 FWD last week(52,000), lease buy back. I have a few questions, hope I am posting in the correct area of this site.
Is it too late to get undercoating done, this vehicle doesn't have undercoating? I have been told for undercoating to be effective it has to done from the first year. Any opinions. We live in an area that gets lots of snow and plenty of salt on the roads.
We have power everything and remote entry with theft deterrent. We want to add remote start for the winter, the dealer told us that if we didn't have the remote start done through Ford, that the remote start would disable the anti theft/immobilzer protection? Have any of you added remote start after the fact and not through a Ford dealer? Any problems?
We are getting window vent visors this weekend, probably going to add some splashguards this winter when buy our winter tires. Any preferences to splashguards.
I'd appreciate hearing all your opinions, I did a search here looking for info on these items but couldn't find much.
Thanks for your help.
