Does Yakima MegaWarrior Cargo Basket Fit 2020 Ford Escape With Factory Roof Rack

Question:

Will this fit a 2020 Ford Escape XLT with factory racks? Will it renders the moon roof unstable when installed?

I checked with Yakima for you, and can verify that your 2020 Ford Escape with the factory roof rack is 100 percent compatible with the MegaWarrior cargo basket, which is the following part number:

- Yakima MegaWarrior Large Roof Rack Cargo Basket # Y07080

So the MegaWarrior will fit your '20 Escape, and it will not affect the stability of your moonroof in any way, though it is not recommended to open the moon roof with this basket (or any rack-mounted accessory) installed to avoid any potential contact between the roof and brackets.

The MegaWarrior # Y07080 is a large, 52" long x 48" wide cargo basket so it will allow you to haul plenty of cargo, and has a wind fairing to help reduce the noise when you're on the road. I also wanted to mention that if you need a simple covering for your gear when using it, the best option is the Large Stretch Net for Yakima Roof Cargo Baskets # Y07081.
