Wix 24477 Cabin Air Filter for select Ford/Mercury models, Pack of 1

While this air filter is used in some cars as a cabin air filter, in the 2007 Ford Escape hybrid it is used as the air filter for the hybrid battery (in the back of the car). While you could drop by your Ford dealer and pick up the same part (5M6H-19N619-AD) for twice the price, this Wix filter is of top quality and a perfect fit. Just as good as the excellent Ford part. [The complex hybrid battery has it's own heat/cool system.]

BTW, in the hybrid this filter should be changed every 25,000 miles or so. I waited 50,000 miles but by then the original was filthy and that tends to trip the Ford hybrid service-soon idiot light (a wrench). You can change the filter without tools. It is under a plastic cover on the left side of the trunk. The Wix filter includes air-flow markings, making it easy to install.

If you have an Escape Hybrid this is the battery Air Filter. Most people never change this filter however it is extremely important as it's what keeps the hybrid battery cool in this filter can get clogged weight easily. It's an inexpensive replacement that will extend the life of your hybrid vehicle. It can be changed in about 30 seconds. I change this about every 10,000 miles a lot cheaper than replacing expensive hybrid batteries that overheat.

Why 4 stars instead of 5? The box. It is HUGE for the size of the air filter.

Other than that, it fits great into the rear battery A/C filter housing on my 2006 Ford Escape Hybrid. It does have a screen-printed set of arrows, telling you which way to position for correct filter flow which is a nice touch. The motorcraft filter I had didn't even label that.

Used this for a 2008 Escape Hybrid and it fit perfectly. This goes in the rear cargo area to filter air used to cool the hybrid components; very important job! It is at least as high quality as the OEM filter, maybe better. At half the price of what the dealer charges you cannot lose. Buy at least enough to get free shipping and save even more.
