Test details: The Ford Escape and Mazda Tribute were introduced in the 2001 model year and structurally modified beginning with 2005 models to improve occupant protection in frontal crashes. The Mercury Mariner, introduced in the 2005 model year, also had the structural modifications. The Mazda Tribute skipped the 2007 model year. All three models were modestly restyled for the 2008 model year, and electronic stability control was added as a standard feature. Note: These ratings and specifications do not apply to the hybrid (gas-electric) versions of the Escape and Mariner. Restraints/dummy kinematics — Dummy movement was well controlled. During rebound, the dummy's head hit the B-pillar and roof rail. Injury measures — Measures taken from the head and chest indicate low risk of injuries to these body regions in a crash of this severity. Forces on the right tibia and both feet indicate that injuries to the lower leg would be likely and injuries to the feet would be possible. Forces on the neck indicate that injuries to the neck would be possible. Head acceleration from the B <b>...</b> | | | | |  | ROOF STRENGTH IS FOCUS OF NEW RATING SYSTEM

Twelve small suvs are the first to be put to the test. Only 4 earn the top rating of good. The Volkswagen Tiguan has the strongest rated roof, and the Kia Sportage has the weakest among the 2008-09 models evaluated. This new rating system is based on Institute research showing that occupants in rollover crashes benefit from stronger roofs. Vehicles rated good must have roofs that are more than twice as strong as minimum federal safety standards require. The Tiguan, Subaru Forester, Honda Element, and Jeep Patriot earn good ratings. The Suzuki Grand Vitara, Chevrolet Equinox, Toyota RAV4, Nissan Rogue, and Mitsubishi Outlander are rated acceptable. Roofs on the Honda CR-V and Ford Escape are marginal, and the Kia's is poor. "We anticipate that our roof strength test will drive improved rollover crash protection the same way our frontal offset and side impact consumer test programs have led to better protection in these kinds of crashes," says Institute president Adrian Lund.

The Ford Escape and Mazda Tribute were introduced in the 2001 model year. Two tests of a 2003 Escape were conducted, one with an optional side airbag for the driver, and one without. A third test of an Escape, a 2005 model, was conducted because the side airbags were changed beginning with 2005 models to include protection for the rear passenger. These vehicles are rated separately, except that the injury and head protection ratings for the rear passenger are based on both tests of the 2003 models. Structural ratings for the three vehicles are based on all three tests. Tested Vehicle: 2003 Ford Escape XLT 4wd | | | | |  | Four Small suvs Earn Top Safety Pick Good Ratings for Hybrid

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety recently completed front, side, and rear crash test evaluations of eight small SUV models. For the first time, every model the Institute tested comes equipped with electronic stability control as standard equipment. Institute ratings of good, acceptable, marginal or poor are based on results of front and side crash tests - plus evaluations of seat/head restraints for protection against whiplash injury in rear crashes. The best performers, earning the Institute's TOP SAFETY PICK award, are the 2009 Ford Escape, 2008 Mitsubishi Outlander, 2008 Nissan Rogue, and 2009 Volkswagen Tiguan. These four models earn good ratings in all three of the Institute's evaluations - and all are equipped with standard electronic stability control and side airbags. The Escape's ratings also apply to the hybrid version - which is sold as the Mercury Mariner and Mazda Tribute, as well as the Escape. Consumers now have multiple hybrid suvs earning TOP SAFETY PICK to choose from. Others include the midsize Saturn Vue and Toyota Highlander, which the Institute evaluated earlier.

Refer to manufacturer installation instructions and specs for complete information. Today on this 2009 Ford Escape we will be installing Hidden Hitch part number 70758. This hitch installation will also apply for the Draw-Tite part number 75281. Okay we are underneath the vehicle and we have gone ahead and removed the spare tire for clarity here. Looking at the drivers-side frame rail you can see we have numerous holes here, existing in the frame rail. The two holes here on the inboard side of the frame are going to provide our two attaching points for our trailer hitch and then the hole a little bit forward here at the bottom of the frame will provide the third attaching point. And that is going to be the same on both sides of the vehicle. To fasten the hitch to the frame we are going to be using blocks and 1 /2 carriage bolts and what we are going to do is fish them inside the frame and pull them out through the existing holes here on the vehicle. We need to do that at all mounting locations. To get the carriage bolt and block inside the frame we are going to be using the 1/ 2 inch bolt leader that is provided with our installation kit. What we are going to do is take and feed it through the hole that we are going to be pulling the carriage bolt down through. Then we will first take the block and feed it onto our bolt leader. Then take the carriage bolt and spread it onto the bolt leader. Then we will come over and <b>...</b> | | | | |  | Four Small suvs Earn Top Safety Pick Good Ratings for Hybrid
