This system ensures you receive timely reminders to maintain optimal engine performance.

Oil Change Interval for Third-Generation Ford Escape

With IOLM: Change oil when notified by the system, typically every 7,500 to 10,000 miles under normal driving conditions.

Severe Driving Conditions: If you frequently tow, idle, or drive in extreme weather, consider oil changes every 5,000 miles.
