Every hybrid vehicle is different. Some hybrids plug-in to charge, some don't. Others have regenerative braking, but not all hybrid vehicles. And most use battery power to propel or help propel the vehicle. And did you know? Some hybrid cars come with a traditional 12-volt battery along with a high-voltage battery. With so many differences in hybrid vehicle systems, it's important that you visit someone who knows your 2012 Ford Escape from bumper to bumper. We'll help your hybrid run newer, longer. Your nearby Firestone Complete Auto Care location is ready to offer low voltage and conventional services for all hybrid vehicles, including Ford Escapes.

Hybrid high voltage battery cooling system inspections: Your technician will closely examine your Ford Escape's battery filter (if applicable), and then clean its ducts. (This applies to air-cooled high voltage batteries. Liquid-cooled or refrigerant-cooled high voltage batteries are inspected differently.)

High voltage cable inspection: Your technician will visually inspect the outer cable jackets and connectors on your 2012 Escape and test to confirm that high voltage isn't making its way to the chassis. They'll let you know if the cable needs replacement.

Isolation test: For this test, a technician uses a special tool to see if any high voltage parts are "leaking" electric energy to the chassis.

Remove and replace hybrid electric battery: Is your Ford Escape's high voltage battery a goner? We can replace it quickly.

Health check for power electronic systems: We'll check the regenerative braking, power inverter, and/or electric drive machine(s)/motor(s) in your 2012 Ford Escape.
