Since you didn't mention the Edge's model year, I pulled this from the 2018 Edge Workshop Manual...

Because front receivers are typically produced for trucks and other off-road vehicles, I was surprised to find a front receiver produced and available for the Edge, though it is stated to fit only non-Ecoboost 2011-13 models. Curt Manufacturing's website shows their Edge front receiver as still available while quantities last, implying production of this front receiver has been discontinued. The last inclusion of this Edge front receiver in Curt Manufacturing's published catalogs was in 2019, so presumably demand was low and updating its fit to later models did not occur. A search of the Web shows many online retailers selling this Edge front receiver at prices much lower than Curt Manufacturing's website suggested retail price. My 2015 (GEN-1+Facelift) MKX's front lower bumper crossmember and subframe appear identical to the mounting surface photos shown in Curt Manufacturing's installation manual (PDF direct download link). Additionally, front subframe service part numbers are identical among GEN-1+Facelift Edge (2011-2014) non-Ecoboost & MKX (2011-2015) models. In a couple of months, I will likely purchase this front receiver, in order to eventually be pushing (instead of backing) my boat into the garage. Once I receive it, I'll update this post with comparative dimensions, especially of mounting holes, in case any other Forum member is contemplating a purchase. For Gardenman, a local welding/fabricating shop may be able to revise the mounting brackets of this receiver to fit your 2018 Edge, which I expect would be less expensive than having them custom-fabricate a front receiver for you. Good luck!

Perhaps you are taking your town's slogan too literally. Good luck!

I've always been intrigued by those. How does the tent's interior length compare to potentially sleeping inside the Edge, with the front seats moved fully forward. with the second row folded down, combined with the cargo area, perhaps using something like this? Good luck!

It is NOT the case that 2011 or newer Edge/MKX wheels will fit your 2010 Edge, because those newer wheels have a center bore that is SMALLER than your 2010 Edge's hub spigot. If you are seeking Ford-Lincoln factory wheels to install without having the center bore enlarged, only those from 2006-2010 Edge & MKX will fit. From wheel-size.com ... Good luck!

From the online 2020 Edge Workshop Manual, edited and with emphasis added, explaining the “little dancing” headlights caused by the Headlamp Leveling system initialization, and also, the redundancy of Adaptive Headlamps’ Information Display setting, due to Autolamps headlight switch positional requirement for Adaptive Headlamps system operation… Headlamps [ and ] Automatic Headlamp Leveling For base and mid series headlamps, the LED headlamp system consists of a non-replaceable low and high beam Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) that are focused through a single projector lens. For high series headlamps, the LED headlamp system consists of a non-replaceable low and high beam Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) that are focused through a single projector lens and additional high beam Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) that are focused through a separate smaller lens inboard of the main lens. The mid and high series headlamps may be equipped with automatic headlamp leveling. The headlamp beam height is automatically adjusted according to vehicle load, speed, acceleration and braking. Automatic headlamp leveling is activated when the headlamp switch is in the HEADLAMPS or AUTOLAMPS position. When the Adaptive Front Lighting Module first receives voltage when the ignition is ON, the and Adaptive Front Lighting Module commands the headlamps up and down to initialize the system. During the initialization, the HCM runs diagnostics on the system and set Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) for applicable system faults. The high series headlamps are equipped with adaptive front lighting. Depending on the inputs received (steering wheel angle and vehicle speed for example), the adaptive front lighting module can command the angle at which the headlamps are aimed (left or right) to improve nighttime visibility around curves. Adaptive front lighting is only activated when the headlamp switch is in the AUTOLAMPS position. Good luck!

Wheel-Size.com advises the following tire & wheel sizes for 2010 Edge... Using the website's search-by-wheel-size feature, the only Ford/Lincoln factory-installed wheels that fit are from 2006-2010 Edge and MKX, likely due to the wheels' 70.5 mm center bore being reduced to to 63.4 mm on 2011 and later model years. By year and model, your choices are... 2007 Edge 2008 Edge 2009 Edge 2010 Edge 2008 & 2009 MKX 2010 MKX You may want to try Car-Part.com's search engine to select used wheels by model year and/or specific wheel size/design in your area or nationwide. Photos of the individual wheels offered for sale are usually viewable, along with condition grading & pricing information. Good luck!

This past discussion very thoroughly describes the roof rail installation process. Good luck!

I shared info on this subject in this prior post, and will add more on my experience, here, now that the work is done. Our 2015 MKX cooling system upgrade was done using dealer-sourced Motorcraft radiator ($213) & cooling fans ($328) to gain the 2-year parts and labor warranty on those components, and I supplied an add-on transmission fluid cooler ($54), 1/2" ID transmission cooler hose ($40/8 ft), and cooler mounts ($5). Installation labor for all that and a wiring upgrade for the higher-amp cooling fans was 7 hours ($700). Because the 26,000 miles MKX was new-to-me, and I want to maximize the life of its original internal water pump, I also had them flush and refill with new engine coolant. Including a few minor parts (hose clamps, connector, fuse), but not including sales tax, the total bill was just over $1,300. I was fortunate that a prior owner paid to have the Motorcraft hitch bar ($210)and trailer wiring kit ($92) installed by his dealership (labor cost unknown), and all this demonstrates the bargain that a factory-installed Tow Package ($510 in 2015) represents. Good luck!

North American-market Edges with the factory-installed Tow Package do include trailer wiring and a 4-pin connector with a removable rubber cap... ...which, in this illustration looking from underneath and toward the back, slides into a bracket attached to the factory-installed hitch (yellow-outlined red arrow)... ...with the connector visible just beneath the rear valance panel to the left of the of the 2 x 2 receiver box (yellow arrow) on these of 2016 Edge SELs... The factory 4-pin connector’s wiring should be a ribbon of four wires color-coded & functioning as… If the trailer wiring is the dealer-installed Ford accessory kit, it may have a ribbon of four wires (white, black, yellow and green) leading to the 4-pin connector, along with a Ford logo on the rubber cap. Good luck!

It may be useful to clarify that my earlier comment on using ForscanLite and OBD Fusion to monitor the Liftgate handle-mounted latch release switch relates to operation of the power liftgate on my GEN 1 2015 MKX. Because 2016 Edge is GEN 2, and the 2016 Workshop Manual mentions only the Body Control Module (BCM) in relation to manual Liftgate latch release, I did a deeper dive and found confirmation of the exclusive involvement of the BCM in the Manual Liftgate wiring diagram... Consequently, using OBD2 scanning software on a GEN 2 Edge will likely yield a BCM Parameter ID (PID) comparable to the Workshop Manual's diagnostic-mentioned LFTGATE_R_SW. Good luck!

In order to assess if a properly equipped do-it-yourself owner could monitor the operation of the liftgate release switch, I installed my OBD2 adapter and connected to my 2015 MKX using ForscanLite for Android on my smartphone, since the task does not require any programming activity, which is only available using full-strength Forscan on a laptop computer. Using either the Dashboard function or the Graph function, and selecting the Parameter ID (PID) HANDLSW for the Liftgate Trunk Module (LTM), or LTM.HANDLSW if searching ALL modules, ForscanLite's Dashboard will display onscreen the momentary activated status of the exterior Liftgate release switch, and the Graph function will show a flowing bottom flat line which jumps up when the switch is pushed and the line returns to the bottom flat line when the button is released. Also on my smartphone, I have the OBD Fusion Android scanning app with its optional cost Ford-Lincoln-Mercury extension for my 2015 MKX. It too allows monitoring of the exterior Liftgate release switch, available under the Liftgate/Trunk Module as the Handle Switch Signal PID designation. I am aware that many national-chain auto parts stores will perform OBD2 scans for Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) on customer vehicles, but I do not know if they will go so far as to perform a scan to assess the successful operation of the exterior Liftgate release switch, though it is likely a replacement part which they may sell, so if it's in their self-interest toward a parts sale, perhaps they would perform the scan if they have that capability. Good luck!

Liftgate latch & release components and their operation, edited for manual liftgate, from online Workshop Manual... Liftgate Latch Release (manual liftgate) The liftgate latch can be released using: the exterior liftgate release switch. a valid programmed passive key. The Body Control Module (BCM) sends a voltage signal to the exterior liftgate release switch. When the liftgate release switch is pressed, the voltage signal is routed to ground, indicating a request to release the liftgate latch. The BCM momentarily provides voltage to the liftgate latch to actuate the release motor. When using the liftgate release switch, the BCM releases the liftgate only when the doors have been electronically unlocked and the vehicle is in PARK. Liftgate Passive Entry (with vehicle locked) With a programmed passive key within 1 meter (3.28 feet) outside the liftgate, press the exterior liftgate release button on the rear of the vehicle to release the liftgate latch (manual liftgate). When the BCM detects the exterior liftgate release button is pressed, it activates the low frequency antenna in the luggage compartment area. The low frequency antenna sends out a signal to activate the passive key. The passive key then responds by sending a high frequency signal back to the Radio Transmitter Module (RTM). The RTM interprets the high frequency signal from the passive key and sends the information to the BCM. If the BCM detects a valid programmed passive key, the BCM releases the liftgate latch (manual liftgate). The following are diagnostic procedures intended for professional technicians, along with replacement instructions for the exterior liftgate release switch and latch mechanism. 2016 Edge - Manual Liftgate Release Diagnostic Procedure - Workshop Manual.pdf (download link) 2016 Edge - Liftgate Inner Trim Panel Removal and Installation - Workshop Manual.pdf (download link) 2016 Edge - Liftgate Release Switch Removal and Installation - Workshop Manual.pdf (download link) 2016 Edge - Liftgate Latch Removal and Installation - Workshop Manual.pdf (download link) Good luck!

Ford's corporate website, https://parts.ford.com/en.html, has a VIN-based parts search engine, which they recommend as providing the greatest accuracy in search results. Ford's dealer-centered OASIS information system provides a variety of reports, including the Historical Vehicle Bill Of Material (HVBOM), reported by VIN, which lists parts numbers of components used at the time of manufacture. Compatible replacement parts may have a differing part number, as a result of engineering changes/improvements over time. I expect more than several Forum members have OASIS access and could provide you a VIN-specific HVBOM, as well as a copy of the original Window Sticker, listing the systems and features on the vehicle when it was sold. Good luck!

In my 2015 MKX, fulfilling the GEN 1 Information Display message by pushing the Start Button with foot already pressing on brake pedal causes the gauge cluster and center stack to awaken and the normal memory seat & steering wheel positions to be resumed. That concurrent brake/button action apparently normalizes the vehicle's running state and removes the engine shutdown potential. The gear shift remains locked until the brake pedal is pressed and then the transmission can be shifted out of Park. The GEN 2 procedure represents a streamlining of the "To Drive:" process with the Intelligent Key present -- at least on U.S. paper -- apparently substituting the the Gear Shift interlock button for the GEN 1 action of pressing the Start button, such that stepping on the brake pedal & shifting is all that's necessary to get a GEN 2 vehicle underway. Good luck!

My 2015 MKX is still GEN 1, whereas 2015 and later Edge are GEN 2, as well as 2016 & later MKX/Nautilus are GEN 2. Interestingly -- as you say -- GEN 2 Edge/MKX/Nautilus "To Drive:" directions after remote starting are different from GEN 1 vehicles. According to the 2016 MKX and the 2020 Edge Owners Manuals, the Information Display message should be... Good luck!

Based only upon the Workshop Manual info, I also was concerned for you that a high-dollar assembly replacement might be necessary. Good luck!

Based upon your past Forum posts, I expect this information will equip you for a likely DIY repair. The online 2017 Edge Workshop Manual describes the Body Control Module (BCM) role in stoplamps operation… And the quasi-fusing effect of the above-mentioned Field Effect Transistor (FET) in stoplamp fault conditions is described as… Here is the full Stoplamps Diagnosis and Testing Procedure, though your need is only for the “One Or More Stoplamps Are Inoperative” portion, which I have expanded for the Rear Lamp Assembly Left Hand connector testing detail, 2017 Edge Stoplamps Diagnosis and Testing Procedure.pdf (download link) which involves this Rear Lamp Assembly connector… …and hopefully won’t progress to additional testing involving this Body Control Module (BCM) connector… Though simple, here is the Rear Lamp Assembly removal procedure... 2017 Edge Rear Lamp R & R Instructions.pdf (download link) Wiring diagram...

After being remote-started, the 2015 MKX stays running when the release button on the locked shifter is pushed. The 2015 also shows a "To Drive: Press Brake and START Button" reminder message in the left side Information Display. This "To Drive" reminder was initially added to 2014 models. Good luck!

My prior levity aside, discussions here often allow me to learn something new. In my nine years of MKX ownership, I've used the remote start function three or four times. From my 2012 MKX, I recalled the need to press the door-lock button on the Intelligent Access key before double-pressing the remote start button. I always presumed that was to deny access into the vehicle while the remotely started vehicle was running. Not so. Just went outside and opened 2015 MKX driver's door. Pushing door-lock button, indeed, actuated doors to lock, after which, double-pushing remote start button caused MKX to start with driver's door open. Closed driver's door, opened rear liftgate, pushed door-lock button, doors locked, double-pushed remote start button, MKX started with rear liftgate open. These were not the outcomes I expected. Remote Start information in Edge/MKX Users Manuals from 2011 to 2021 is essentially the same... Good luck!
