Once your new hybrid battery has arrived, put the core battery back into the same packaging your battery arrived in. As soon as we receive your core battery, we will refund the core deposit back to you. It’s that easy.
Our rebuilt battery restores your Escape to normal operation without breaking your budget. We test every cell, swap out the weak ones, and balance the whole pack to Ford’s standards. You get reliable hybrid performance with a 12-month warranty covering unlimited miles.
This upgraded option uses brand-new cells that last longer and perform better than standard replacements. You’ll notice stronger electric assist and better fuel economy. Comes with a 36-month warranty and unlimited mileage coverage—our best protection for owners keeping their Escape long-term.
The 2010 Ford Escape hybrid battery is now 14-15 years old, which puts it well past the typical lifespan for hybrid batteries. All batteries wear out over time from regular charge cycles—it’s just how the chemistry works. Heat exposure, cold weather driving, and years of daily use gradually break down the cells inside the pack.
Ford used the same hybrid system from 2010 through 2013, which means a 2011 Ford Escape hybrid battery works exactly like a 2012 or 2013 model. The battery pack sits in the same location behind the rear seat, uses identical cells, and follows the same replacement procedures across all four years.
When your 2012 Ford Escape hybrid battery starts failing, you’ll notice several clear symptoms. The wrench warning light might appear on the dashboard. Your fuel economy drops from the usual mid-30s MPG down to low 20s. Acceleration feels weaker because the electric motor isn’t providing its normal assist. Some owners report rough transitions between electric and gas power, or the hybrid system shutting down completely during driving.
The 2013 Ford Escape hybrid battery faces the same age-related degradation even though it’s a year newer. At 11-12 years old, these batteries are entering the typical replacement window. Even Escapes with lower mileage experience battery failure because age matters as much as how many miles you’ve driven.
We don’t just swap batteries and send you on your way. The process starts with diagnostic testing to confirm the battery is actually the problem. Sometimes other issues can mimic battery failure—like problems with the hybrid control module or cooling system—so we verify before ordering parts.
Once we confirm you need a battery, we remove the old pack from under the cargo area. The Escape battery location behind the rear seat makes access relatively straightforward compared to some vehicles where batteries are buried under the floor.
We install your new battery, connect it to the hybrid system’s electrical connections and cooling lines, then run calibration procedures. The car’s computer needs to learn about the new battery’s characteristics so everything works smoothly together.
Finally, we test drive your Escape to verify the hybrid system operates correctly. You should feel immediate improvement in acceleration response and see the battery charge gauge working properly again.
The whole process takes about one day once we have your battery in stock. Most Escape owners drop off their SUV in the morning and pick it up the next day.
A 2011 or 2012 Ford Escape hybrid battery replacement costs less than you’d lose trading in your SUV with a dead battery. Dealers recognize battery problems immediately and they’ll discount your trade-in value heavily—often by $3,000 to $5,000.
Your Escape is probably paid off by now. It’s cheap to insure, parts remain affordable, and besides the battery it likely runs fine. Spending $1,795 to $2,295 gives you several more years of reliable transportation without monthly car payments.
Compare that to buying a used SUV for $15,000-$20,000 or taking on payments for something new. The battery replacement is significantly cheaper and you keep a vehicle you already know and trust.
Both battery options include warranty protection, but coverage differs:
The remanufactured battery at $1,795 includes 12 months of coverage with no mileage limit. Drive 5,000 miles or 50,000 miles—you’re covered either way.
The premium new cell battery at $2,295 includes 36 months of coverage, also with unlimited mileage. This gives you three full years of protection.
All warranties cover defects and performance issues. If something goes wrong with your battery during the coverage period, we fix it according to the warranty terms. Full details are on our Warranty Page.
Stop wasting gas with a dead hybrid battery. Whether you’ve got a 2010, 2011, 2012, or 2013 Ford Escape hybrid, we’ll get it running efficiently again.

If you notice warning lights on your dashboard, don’t rush to the dealership for an expensive diagnostic report. Many local auto parts stores can scan your vehicle and provide error codes for free—just ask them to run a quick scan with a diagnostic tool.
Above, we’ve listed some of the most common hybrid error codes. Keep in mind that the check engine light must be onfor major issues to be detected. If your vehicle is experiencing hybrid battery failure, dealerships often charge thousands of dollars for a replacement—typically with a limited warranty.
At Greentec Auto, we offer a cost-effective alternative, providing high-quality hybrid battery replacements at a fraction of the price. Plus, we back our batteries with a comprehensive warranty to give you peace of mind.
Our remanufactured battery is $1,795 with a 12-month warranty. The premium new cell battery is $2,295 with a 36-month warranty. Both prices include professional installation and unlimited mileage coverage.
Yes. When your hybrid battery works properly, you should get 32-34 MPG combined. With a dead battery, you’ll only see 20-22 MPG because the gas engine does everything. A new battery brings your fuel economy back to where it should be.
Battery replacement usually takes about one day. We need a few hours to remove the old battery, install the new one, calibrate the system, and test everything. You can typically drop off your Escape in the morning and pick it up the next day.
Yes. Ford used the same hybrid system for all four years. Whether you have a 2010, 2011, 2012, or 2013 model, the battery and replacement process are identical.
