My 2003 Ford Escape XLS battery light has been on for 6 months. I went to autozone last Wednesday and they said my battery was bad. I got it replaced yesterday. Battery light still on. So tonight after I read another forum, hey said it was the radiator overflow reservoir. I figured it would be worth checking. My reservoir was about 1/2 inch below the full line. I filled it about 1/4 inch above the full line.....lo and behold, the battery light went off when I started the car. How freakin stupid. Also, bought my Escape in '04 and the Airbag light came on. Took it to Ford, they said it was the seat tensioner. They fixed it ($169). Came back on 3 months later. They fixed it again (this time they covered it). Has not come on in 5 years. Probably was just the connectors and wires under the passengers seat that get messed up when the seat is moved like other forums have said, and Ford is just retards.
