Lee1 and Group, I don't know if certain models have the vents but mine sure doesn't. I got underneath with a flashlight, looked everywhere, no vents, slits nothing that even looked like a vent. Mine is a 2013 SEL. It was built January 2013, don't know if that would make any difference unless ford discontinued the vents because of the exhaust smell?? Larry

Lee1, I couldn't spot anything that looked like a vent under my rear bumper. What pressure would they release? What do they look like? Thanks Larry

Help - Issue with 2011 Ford Edge - Ford not Helping !!!

Cellbine, Did you buy your edge new? If so you should have Basic 3 year / 36,000 miles , Drivetrain 5 year / 60,000 miles, Roadside 5 year / 60,000 miles, Rust 5 year / Unlimited miles, from Ford. If you bought used then you have what you bought. I have a 2013 edge. If I end up keeping it past the 3yr/36,000 I'll check around for Ford ESP plans. As long as you buy the ESP plan before the 3yr/36,000 is up the rates are cheaper. Check prices here, http://www.floodfordesp.com/ I just checked on mine. I used 35,000 miles for reference. cost was $1120.00 7yr/125,000 but actually it's only 4 yrs. because ESP plans start at the vehicles original retail date and mileage. so mine would start with 65 miles and purchase date Feb.8,2013. Ends up costing $1120.00 for 4 yrs. = $280.00 per yr. One trip to the garage to get almost anything fixed will cost $280.00 plus. Just my two cents. Larry

Incinerator, Do you think it would damage the paint over time??? Thanks Larry aka 1edge

Jared, Very sorry. Pet's are like our kids. There should be more laws passed to protect our pets. You read and hear every day about the sick things so called humans do to animals. You say the guy said his pants were torn from Riley. Well that's possible BUT I bet the a--hole kicked him first to cause Riley to defend himself. I' m not saying this happened BUT is possible. Either way this guy should get the samething he gave Riley. We know no such luck on that. Hope you have good luck going the legal way. Larry

2013 Edge Limited. First long trip. Very Good
Larry replied to pinballbob2's topic in Owner Impressions
Hi All, Haven't had my SEL on a trip yet. My driving so far is county roads and two lane highway. For the last 1700 miles it has averaged 24.4mpg. I'm not too impressed with that. Mine is supposed to get 19 city/ 27 highway. Plan on taking a trip this Oct. from Northern,Indiana to GatlinburgTn/ Cherokee,Nc from there to Pensacola,Fl and back home. I'm expecting/hopeing to average at least 25/26 mpg. I don't have a heavy foot but I run a couple mph over the limit. Edge has 3.5 engine Larry Northern,In -

Haven't had my 13 sel on a trip yet. I've only clocked 2500 miles. I quit messing with the #2 trip at about 900 miles. For the past 1600 miles I've averaged 24.7 mpg I'm not pleased but knew what the mpg was claimed when I bought it 19/27. Drive county roads and two lane highways. Haven't ran more than a 100 miles at one time. Plan on taking a run to Pensacola, Fl. this fall. ( Oct. ) About 950 miles one way. Probably with the running around there , will put on close to 2500/2600 miles. See what it averages then. I've added window air deflectors and removed the front plate holder since this pic. Also had mud guards but removed them Larry Northern,In about 15 miles south of the Michigan state line

Cellbine, Better hang on to your ride. Never heard of one averaging that much. I have a 13 SEL 3.5 only have 2500 miles on it. Bought it in Feb. this year. Got very poor mileage until warm weather broke. Still nothing to brag about. I played with the trip meters when I first got it. I quit messing with trip 2 at about 900 miles. Since then I have 1600 plus miles at 24.6 average. This is county roads and two lane highways , no more than 50 miles per trip. Plan on taking a road trip this fall ( Oct. ) about 3000 miles, hopefully it will average better. Not too impressed with the mileage. I had a 04 Ford Freestar minivan that averaged 22/23 MPG on a trip. I'm hoping for at least 25 MPG with the Edge. Guess I knew what the MPG was when I bought the Edge 19/27. Can't blame no one but myself. Bought the Edge instead of the Taurus because the Edge sits higher, more like the Van did. I like to be able to see ahead. Larry Northern,Indiana

Leaking coolant AFTER changing water pump???? Larry

oskar27, Not sure what is meant by tinted clearcoat. Far as Red goes I've found that any paint containing red cost more. I have a ruby red 2013 edge sel and yes it cost $300. more for the paint. Should have got silver, darned red shows the dirt too much. Larry Northern,In

Never thought of using lamin-x. Good idea !!!!!!! Larry Northern,In.

Nightshades would probably work very good. The only problem I see it states the paint is almost impossible to remove. The cheap flat black I used will come off with rubbing alcohol and some work. No damage to the plastic. I know because I sprayed too much on the first time. Took it all off and started over. Just one quick spray across the top of the sensor. Let dry overnight, buff the overspray off with paper towel or cloth. You can't tell buy looking the sensor has been painted. I practiced with other items to get the pattern I wanted. Update on this fix.. I've noticed on very dark overcast days the lights will come on ( that's good ) but if the sun peeks out and shines on the front of the car the lights will go off. Sun hides again, lights will come back on. Could be annoying to someone you a following.. So in this case ( rare ) I turn the lights on manually. This fix isn't perfect. Maybe that's why ford made the sensor the way they did?????? Larry Northern,Indiana

I purchased the samething you have, didn't even try to install it, looked to big and bulky for my taste also didn't want to drill. I'm thinking about the clear skin or the aeroskin but not sure about sticking directly to the paint?? Anyone used the stick on deflectors?

ludsey, $30,470. Before or after taxes?? Either way doesn't sound too bad. I paid $27,500. out the door for a 13 SEL with No added frills. Larry Northern,In

2013 Silver SEL Edge AWD w/ Appearance Pkg.....Likes/Dislikes
Larry replied to jsjs1's topic in Owner Impressions
I kind of wish I would have got silver but the boss wanted ruby red. Ours is a plain SEL cloth etc. everthing we need. So far we like it, only 1700 miles on it. We've been averaging 23/24 per gallon. There is one thing that I really don't like. The door stop arms with the crazy two notches/curves , makes the door go when you don't want it to. Ours was $27,500 out the door. Sauers Ford Michigan City, Indiana.. Is ND North Dakota or Notre Dame ?? Larry Northern,In -
Hi Clark, Welcome. Nice looking ride. Good to hear you got rid of foreign and bought American, well Canadian, but I don't consider Canada as a foreign country trying to out sell us. I assume Canada Ford is UAW Union. We have a 13 SEL ruby red. Wife color. I would rather had silver. So far we like it. Gas mileage has been between 22-24 mpg. County roads and two lane highway.
