I currently have a 2006 Ford Escape Hybrid with 225K. The front suspension was replaced at 150K which included all struts and shocks, inner and outer tie rod ends, and front control arms. Things now are starting to go bad again-driver side inner and outer tie rods and shucks and struts along with a broken wire on the driver seat harness which controls the air bags. I was considering a 2010 FWD with 88 thousand miles that is in mint condition from Georgia. Should I be worried about the mileage on the vehicle. The previous owners kept the car immaculate. It was a trade in to a Honda dealer who said the car is perfect, but I am worried they can not check the hybrid system. I live up north and do not want to buy a car from here because of the rough winters. All opinions are welcome.

I don't know about 2010's but seems like it be worthwhile to test drive it with a scangauge or have a hybrid tech scan it

Are your suspension problems from bad roads or salt or?
