The antifreeze (coolant) reservoir on a 2002 Ford Escape is typically located
under the hood, near the radiator. It's usually a translucent plastic tank with markings indicating minimum and maximum fill levels. Look for a tank with a cap that says "coolant" or has a similar marking. There might also be a radiator cap on the radiator itself, but you generally add coolant to the reservoir, not directly to the radiator unless it's completely empty.
However, before adding antifreeze:
* Consult your owner's manual: This is the most reliable source of information for your specific vehicle. It will show you exactly where the reservoir is and what type of coolant to use.
* Let the engine cool completely: Adding coolant to a hot engine can cause serious burns.
Always use the correct type of coolant recommended for your vehicle. Using the wrong type can damage your engine.
