From what I remember, only the Edge with push button engine start has the factory alarm. As for which to go with, especially if your considering remote start, is to with Ford's. They are easily installed and we'll integrated to the vehicle's system (using the OBD 2 connection).

From the Owners Manual:

Yes, the warranty on the APIM (the brains of the MFT system) was extended to 5 years (6 for Lincolns) from purchase date without any mileage restrictions. R12M02 Warranty Extension - APIM.pdf

The Edge/MKX seem to be the only Ford products with this issue (having to manually close the last ~6-8"). But they are also the only products with a real vista roof, where the larger glass panel is the one that actually opens & slides over the roof. Other Fords have a regular moonroof as the moving part with a larger fixed glass panel behind it to complete the panoramic roof (the moon roof slides under the rear glass panel). The only exception seems to be the 2013+ MKZ with the Panoramic roof which, as per the Owners Manual seems to close like the regular moonroof, but I did not try one myself.

Believe it or not, turning off traction control is so rare that most "less involved" people won't find or even know about the Trac-off button and Some vehicles don't have a way to turn it off.

Yes. This indicator was added in 2012 or 2013 so you can know that they are on. On my 2011 it is difficult to ascertain if the lights are on or not because these new instrument clusters are always lit, unlike older cars.

They are now officially in production: https://media.ford.com/content/fordmedia/fna/us/en/news/2015/02/26/production-of-the-all-new-2015-ford-edge-officially-kicks-off.html?scmp=social_20150226_41158546&adbid=571017596859842560&adbpl=tw&adbpr=15676492

The page linked has wrong info as you can see the power rating for the 3.5L is the same as that for the 2.7L. The F-150 2.7L with higher output is listed with "regular fuel recommended": http://www.ford.com/trucks/f150/specifications/engine/ The specifications sheet for the Edge in Media.Ford also states 87 octane as the recommended fuel for the 2.7L. https://media.ford.com/content/fordmedia/fna/us/en/asset.download.document.pdf.html/content/dam/fordmedia/North%20America/US/2015_Specs/2015_Edge_Specs.pdf Finally, the article were they announced the power output of the 2.7L for the Edge Sport did not mention Premium fuel requirement for the 2.7L while it did so when they mentioned the mentioned the power ratings of 2.0L. Note that the same article is a corrected version as when it was first released the stated that horsepower increased by 10% compared to the previuos Sport (3.7L) while it is now revised to state "delivers a small increase in horsepower over the previous". https://media.ford.com/content/fordmedia/fna/us/en/news/2015/02/06/performance-and-power--2015-ford-edge-sport-certified-as-highest.html

There are other non Ford IDS OBD 2 devices used by locksmiths that can program keys/fobs. The device can be used on many makes & models, not only Fords. I had a fob programmed to my MKX using one of them.

Yes, 2011+ models got the 2" opening.

What is the actual problem? Is it the caplless system itself meaninig it is not closing correctly? What is the dealers cost for repair? Might be minimal compared to making a big issue of it being covered or not under warranty. Also, you can still purchase a locking cap to cover the fuel outlet.

Well, changing the PCM will probably be difficult as it also controls other things that might be different between vehicles (for example, the MKX has push button transmission selector). But, if the difference is really only a tune then a simple aftermarket tuner would be able to do it, much simpler than changing the PCM. By the way, it might not even be required, as per the Owners Manual, using Premium Fuel yields additional performance, so the difference between the MKX & Edge 2.7 might only be marketing and they actually put out the same power.

The order guide stated it was a late availability. 2015 Edge Order Guide.pdf

Actually, due to the 6F55 torque limitation (though it is still higher than the 6f50), it seems that the 2.7 is like the 3.5 Ecoboost where they have both been limited to 350 lb-ft of torque while in the F-150, the 2.7 is rated for 375 lb-ft & the 3.5 is rate for 420 lb-ft (and up to 460 in the 15' Navigator).

From the owners manual, the 6F55 is one of 3 transmissions available on the Edge. So I'd think this is a confirmation that the 2.7 comes with it.

I couldn't find it in the order guide that the Sport gets the Heated steering wheel.

Ford/Lincoln started this differentiation with the 2015 Expedition & Navigator. 365hp/420lb-ft for the Expedition & 380hp/460lb-ft for the Navigator. Though I did not expect it in the Edge Sport since it is supposed to be a SPORT model! Now we need to know what that power translate to in terms of performance & acceleration (0-60 & 1/4 mile). Note that Lincoln advertises the 380hp/460lb-ft rating using 93 octane fuel.http://www.lincoln.com/suvs/navigator/features/Feature1/ Going through the media.ford article, there is no mention of premium fuel requirement for the 2.7 while it is clearly stated for the 2.0. So it might really be just a marketing thing & using regular vs. premium fuel. Also, the media.ford article stated 10% increase in power & 25% increase in torque compared to current 3.7. This works out to 335HP & 350 lb-ft of torque.

If you remove the card, you will lose navigation. Navigation will only work while the SD Card is inserted.

As per the order guide, the 401a package does NOT include the panoramic Vista roof.

Or it's a very old belt that stretched too much for the tensioner to tighten up.

2011-2012 have a capacitive button, you touch/hold it for a second to turn on/off the hazards. In 2013 they changed it to a physical button.

Your welcome. If the car is still new to you, give it some time & you'll probably get used to it.

They only go up and down. In 2012 the headrests changed to 4-way adjustment, I know that they fit the 2011 models, but don't know about older models. You 2 other options: Raise the headrest so your head touches the lower part of the headrest Wichita is further. Or, Try to remove the headrest, rotate it & reinstall so it is tilted to the back.

This is how to enter the Engineering mode for the 2011+ Edge: http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showpost.php?p=3086315&postcount=2

I also have this problem, it is very annoying. I think the leather might need some type polisher/cleaner, but didn't try yet.
