If a new forum/site has been created for the ST model, why bother to maintain a subsection for that model on this forum/site?
-
20 days since I last checked, and it must be the lower ambient that has increased the amount of separation, so much so that I don't think that it would make the 5K miles oil change interval.

A tip, when you come looking for advice at a place like this, take just a little time and effort to describe what you've already tried, and the results.

Always best to follow a diagnostic approach, which could have saved you the cost of a fuel pump and control module. First thing to try is a squirt of starter fluid, and if it runs on that it's a fuel delivery problem, if not, then start looking at valve timing etc. Check for error codes - Autozone will loan a code reader to you if you prefer not buying one. What engine? What's the mileage, and service record, oil change intervals, spark plugs, ............. the more pertinent information you provide, the more likely you'll receive meaningful suggestions.

Heated and Cooled Seats
1004ron replied to Wedgeamatic's topic in Interior, A.C., Heat, Interior Trim
I clicked new posts and only saw yours, not the previous comments about the latest Ford approach of doing away with the cooled feature. Quite odd that they can get the seat bottoms to work well but not the backrests. -

We're talking cooled seats here. -
Heated and Cooled Seats

I've got 35,400 miles on the clock and contemplating addressing the failure of the backrest cooling with Ford before the general warranty runs out at 36,000 miles, but if they don't have a real fix then I wont waste my time. If I did take it in I'd have them address the rattle of the two under body covers which I temporarily fixed. -

ROFL Digging deep and still no evidence of these "gassing" parts. -

You reported that your vehicles brakes are now repaired - did that include the replacing these "gassing" parts with "non-gassing" parts? Please post the details, part numbers and description of the non-gassing parts. -

Many other members here repeatedly advised him to take the vehicle to different dealership because it was blatantly clear that they were incompetent, then after an uphill battle one of them at that dealership saw the light and realised what bleed procedure is required. -

Yawn, You made the wild claim but cant post a single link to support it. -
I did the first oil change myself at 3000 miles mainly to get it switched over to full synthetic early in its life.

I just bought Collinite 915 Marque D'Elegance Auto Wax and will report back in a few weeks. I work at a power plant, and in certain climate conditions and the emission control equipment not working as it should, my Edge gets acid rain which has etched the clear-coat. I might look at getting the hood wrapped because the etching is the worst on it. What's odd is my black Harley paint hasn't suffered the same.
-
I believe the consensus on the RDU oil change can be found in the post directly above yours.
-
If this was a scheduled outage you'd expect that it would be announced and done mid week.
-
This is what I find in my JLT 3.0 can after around 500 miles. I can't resist checking it when I check my engine oil level.

Direct interpretation: you don't have the facts to back up your claims. All we can hope for is that you stick to your word and leave it to the U. S Government. -

After umpteen posters advised you to take it to a competent dealership service centre, that dealership eventually learnt how to bleed brakes systems that include ABS. You say the issue is corrected on your vehicle - does that mean they have changed the "coating on rear internal disc brake parts" ? -

Come now, you made the claim, you back it up. https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-1&q=loss+of+brakes+on+a+ford+edge Point out which of the search results draws attention to "Seems there is an Issue with "coating on rear internal disc brake parts"". -
2012 Ford Edge_Loss of Brake Pedal
1004ron replied to quincy's topic in Brakes, Chassis & Suspension
Looks like @akirby was right all along. I'm lucky to have a few Ford dealerships to chose from and use one that is +30 min drive from the one closest to me, because of poor service from the one closest to me when I took a company vehicle to them. -

I'm not seeing any conclusive evidence here, and its not good etiquette to cross post the same thing all over the forum. Cant you post some evidence with links etc.? -
Its does - I'd get it changed if it was mine - might not be that easy, as the claim would be that's the latest trim. Great looking ride and really like that blue - it's almost like my wife's Mustang deep impact blue.
