Customer feedback describes quick, straightforward installation and reports that the struts hold the supported panel and allow smooth lifting and closing. The comments supplied refer to hood struts and a Jeep, so they do not establish fit or performance on the Ford Escape or Mercury Mariner applications listed here. The overall ratings are mostly five-star, with a smaller one-star share, but ratings alone do not explain the reasons for those experiences.

Positive themes

Reported ease of installation and smooth lifting and closing.
