My 2006 Ford Escape just reached 60K and I decided to keep it noise and all. This is a great little SUV and perfect for my use but the road noise has been horrible. Yesterday I installed a new set of tires (Goodyear Fortera) and couldn't be more pleased...I'm able to listen to the radio at low volume and talk in a normal tone to passengers. If you like your Escape like I do ....... change the tires......You will be pleased. It is a real pleasure to drive now!

I have the same problem with front end road noise. Got rid og the Contintals 25k Installed 4 Coopers. The road noise was greatly reduced. Now 40k miles IT"S Back. The noise is as bad as before. The Coopers aren't evan worn! I'm not about to replace the tires again. I will not buy another Escape!

I have a 2004 Escape when I pull out on a slight or hard pull. My Escape make a terrible rummbling noise in the front end.
