Curt 2-inch Class III hitch # 13650 is a USA-made hitch that fits the hybrid and standard versions of the 2012 Ford Escape. This hitch offers no-drill installation on the Escape without a factory hitch. An install video is linked for you along with the written instructions from Curt.
For a 4-pole wiring harness for the Escape without the factory tow package use part # 118251 if you do NOT have the backup sensors. Models WITH backup sensors can use # 118551.
For a ball mount for towing you can use recommended Curt part # C45030 along with 2-inch hitch ball # 63845 or 2-5/16-inch ball # 63847.
Several helpful articles on hitch installation and towing are also included for you.
