ECOGARD XC25571 Premium Cabin Air Filter Fits Ford Escape HYBRID 2006-2011, Escape 2005-2012 | Mercury Mariner 2006-2011 | Mazda Tribute 2008-2010

pleased with the product.

Just installed it today. Fits my 2008 Escape Hybrid. This is the filter that goes in the trunk and part of the HVAC system for the battery pack in the back. The fit is 99% as good as the Motorcraft models I've been using. I just needed to wiggle it a bit to go in. I subtracted 1 star because the airflow arrow is printed on an inconvenient side of the filter, not a huge deal but Motorcraft does make this part nice and clear. As for filter efficiency? Who knows! It looks the same as Motorcraft, but that doesn't mean much. Until someone creates a definitive way to compare these things, I guess I'll take my chances.

These little filters have went up in price but this one is well made and still reasonably priced. 2005 to 2009 escape hybrid battery air filter

I watched a few videos on YouTube on how to replace these filters and I did mines in just a few minutes first time. As other posted make sure you note the arrow for direction of airflow (downward) to battery pack. Also on the main page Amazon shows (incorrectly) that this does not fit 2008 Mariner Hybrid while the title of this product correctly states it does. My filter was delivered to my porch within a day for perfect convenience.

This battery air filter installs into the driver's side trunk area access panel. Easy as pie, no tools needed.
