Summary

Ford Escape 2021 VIN check

This page is a short report on the Ford Escape 2021: VIN 1FMCU0BZ3MUA13798, production year 2021, mileage 253k km, hybrid engine, automatic gearbox and an asking price of $16,000. Such a check helps to quickly understand how well a specific car matches the market, whether the price looks suspiciously low and whether the mileage is typical for this year.

Insight: High mileage — service history and the condition of the engine and gearbox are decisive. EV/hybrid — battery health and remaining capacity are key.

Market position

Based on current data, year ±2). Market prices range from $13,800 to $23,400 with a median of $17,900, and this offer is within the market: 11% under the median. This is not always a problem, but such a difference deserves extra attention to the car's condition, documents, registration history and possible bargaining.

Insight: The price is in line with the market — a balanced offer.

History & registrations

The report includes state registry data: owners — 1, transfers — 0, plate changes — 0, years in the registry — under a year. The latest recorded operation: Imported from abroad and registered on 03.02.2026. This data helps to assess the legal transparency of the car before buying.

Insight: One registration history with no re-registrations logged. History before import may be incomplete. The car appeared in Ukraine recently — the history is short, its origin matters.
