FORD FEATURES
WINDSHIELD WIPER
DEICER
Ford Escape models can be
equipped to help drivers eliminate
the winter headache of maintaining
a clear windshield. No more wiper
blades covered in chunks of ice. No
more wiper blades freezing to the
glass. And the funny-looking park-
ing lot ritual of pulling wipers off
the windshield and pointing them to the sky will be a thing of the past.
Escape is the first Ford Motor Company SUV in the United States to offer a
windshield wiper de-icer, part of a Cold Weather Package that is standard on
Titanium models and an option on SE models. The 2017 Escape is due in show-
rooms this spring.
“The windshield wiper de-icer is a great solution to one of the more nagging
problems of winter,” said Jennifer Gauthier, Ford fixed glass engineer. “Escape
drivers in the U.S. are going to wonder how they ever got along without it.”
The system is designed to clear light snow and ice from the wiper blades in
under 10 minutes at minus 18 degrees Fahrenheit.

For some, spring cleaning is a time-
honored ritual, which doesn’t just apply
to your house. Remember that your car
is likely in desperate need of
some attention after the
winter months.
“A car that’s well-
maintained is safer,
cheaper to run,
more reliable and
can be worth more
money at resale
time,” says Brian
Moody, executive edi-
tor of Autotrader.
To help, Autotrader
editors are sharing “Simple
Spring Car Care” tips to get your car in
tip-top shape for the busy driving sea-
son ahead:
• Wash and wax your car thoroughly.
If you can afford it, have it profession-
ally detailed. However, if you do it your-
self, be sure to use a pressure nozzle
in order to rid your car of any leftover
road salt or sand from the winter.
Direct sunlight can cause a car’s finish
to become dull, but a thorough wash-
ing and waxing can also help keep your
car’s paint and clear coat looking good.
It’s tempting to run the car through
an automated car wash, but those big
revolving brushes can dull the finish
over time. If you’re not allowed to wash
your car at home due to regional laws
or neighborhood rules, seek out a good
drive-thru wash and hand wax instead.
• Check and set your car’s tire pres-
sure to the level specified in your
owner’s manual or on the driver’s door
sill. As temperatures warm up, the air
in your tires can expand and that might
impact the way the car handles.
Be sure not to over-inflate
the tires. While low tire
pressure can cause the
tire to heat up if it’s
not rolling down
the road properly,
extreme over infla-
tion can cause a
blowout in high
temperatures. If
you’re not comfort-
able doing this yourself,
take your car to a shop
like Sears Auto Center or
Firestone Auto Care Center — those
kinds of chains will usually do it for
free.
• Have a qualified mechanic do a
visual inspection under the hood. If
you’re comfortable doing this yourself,
check for worn belts or hoses and make
sure your coolant (sometimes called
anti-freeze) isn’t too old. Coolant lasts
a long time, but keeping track of when
it was last changed, especially in older
cars, can help you avoid overheating as
the temperatures gradually climb.
For more tips for keeping your
vehicle in great shape whether it’s hot,
cold, or rainy can be found at www.
Autotrader.com.
For better driving all season long,
make sure your spring to-do list
includes cleaning and maintaining your
car.
