Escape. However, to ensure that the roof box does not interfere with being able to fully open the rear hatch, you will want find the rear hatch clearance

You can find this out by first adjusting your front crossbar as far forward as possible and then measuring from the center of the front crossbar to the line where your roof and rear hatch meet. If that measurement is at least 57 inches then this cargo box will fit on your 2014 Ford Escape.

The attached diagram will give you more information on how to measure your crossbars to find the clearance between hatch and cargo box.
