I am guessing that you have never looked under the hood of a 2016 Escape because you need to remove the air box to remove the battery.
I’m not sure what kind of Escape the folks above have but if you are going to pull the battery without damaging the tray above it you will need to pull the windshield wipers and then the test above comes off in 2 pieces pop the clips off the front of the panel and then the clips by the windshield after that is removed then there are 4 bolts that take a # 10 socket to remove once that is removed then you can pull the bracket off the battery and loosen the battery cables all my fasteners were #10 pull the front of the battery up and work the battery out

Take it to NASA they will fly it to space and get aliens to do, other than that go purchase $4 to 500 in tools and take 1/2 the car apart. Henry would be rolling in his grave if he seen this fiasco
