Adding the T-Connection Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C56320 to your 2018 Ford Escape will not void the warranty on your vehicle.

Aftermarket products such as this will not void the warranty because you are protected by what is called the Federal Magnusson-Moss Warranty Act. This states in part that if something breaks on your vehicle and you take it in for warranty repair, the dealer must honor your warranty unless whatever you have added to your vehicle or its installation actually caused the problem in question.

I have added a link to a video of this part being installed in a 2018 Ford Escape for you to take a look at.
