Let's start over......
batteries used to be 5-7 years typically, in the last 8 years or so it seems 3-5 is the average lifespan
there are only 2 or 3 battery manufacturers in the USA, so doesn't matter the "brand" that sold it to you, it all came from the same place. I typically recommend Walmart because they carry the best warranty

I like the Walmart ones as well - since I spend so much time on the road for work it’s nice to have so many locations where it is easy to get warranty service if I break down while out of town. Oddly enough, Walmart doesn’t carry the correct size for the Escape - I usually have to go to Autozone to get the correct unit in a version that has any kind of appreciable warranty. Seems strange since there are so many Escape’s around.....

It had the appropriate foot print, and cable locations, and went right in?
