How to Add Windshield Washer Fluid on a Ford Escape (2013-2019)

About this video

Washer fluid warning on the dash, or nothing spraying when you pull the stalk? In this video, an ASE certified mechanic shows you where the windshield washer fluid reservoir is on a 2013-2019 Ford Escape (third generation, including the 2017 facelift) and how to fill it correctly.

WHAT WE COVER
Opening the hood and identifying the washer fluid cap
Filling the reservoir without overfilling
Which washer fluid to use and why plain water is a bad idea
Winter blend versus summer blend and freeze protection
Why the front and rear washers share the same reservoir

SYMPTOMS YOU MAY NOTICE
Washer Fluid Level Low message on the cluster
Nothing sprays when you pull the washer stalk
Weak spray or only one nozzle working
Rear washer not spraying on the liftgate glass
Washer pump buzzing with no fluid coming out
Frozen washer lines in cold weather

RELATED MODELS
The Ford Kuga and Lincoln MKC (2015-2019) share this platform, and the process is nearly identical on most cars, trucks, and SUVs.

Quick tip: if the pump runs but nothing sprays after filling, a nozzle may be clogged. A pin can usually clear it in seconds.
