Alternative Jack or Lift Points on 2017 Edge
1004ron replied to RJSargent64's topic in Exterior & Body
Wow, that's some serious corrosion and question the structural integrity. They also salt the roads in my area - I have the monthly payment deal with the local car was and take it through the wash every time I drive on salted roads and don't have any corrosion on my 2017. If it were mine I'd add Jacking Rails like I installed on my wife's Mustang - you could contact the suppler/manufacturer to see if the make these for the Edge, or modify them to fit.

Those incompetent service shops are making wild guesses that its a "heater hose cracked". Are you seeing coolant on the ground? It could be the issue detailed in the below linked thread: -

It sounds like you've had your vehicle at three incompetent service shops, which in the end has cost you more than it would have taking it to the Dealership service center or a reputable independent shop. The only advice I can offer is to take it to a reputable competent service shop. -

I've ordered the replacement from Amazon - Its the Dorman brand and hopefully it lasts longer than the OEM. Amazon.com: Dorman 923-133 Center High Mount Stop Light Compatible with Select Ford Models : Automotive @Haz do you have any details for the double-sided tape used between the spoiler and the glass?

I'm not familiar with the 2.0L, but maybe @Haz can help. In photo #3 it looks like an air/vacuum pipe is disconnected ? In photo #4 it looks like the serpentine belt is InsideOut ? -

Ford Edge Forum: WHAT HAPPENED?
1004ron replied to robertlane's topic in Forum Help & Site Suggestions
Thanks for the update, but I'll believe it when I see it because robertlane sure leaves us with the impression that he's abandoned this forum. Maybe the new hosting service will correct the fault that prevents the profile detail being displayed. Posted August 28, 2019 -
I've done the Drain/Fill twice on my 2017 Sport at around 45K miles each time and it was not black. If its black I'd be concerned that its been abused or its a sign of issues on the horizon. 70K mile oil change interval for the PTU is way overdue - I do mine at 30K miles.

When I changed spark plugs on my wife's 3.7L Mustang I found oil in the intake - I replaced the PCV valve and installed a catch-can and no longer get oil in the intake. I doubt that the engine braking would cause this.

Best way to get scratch out of console?

I don't believe there's a way to remove it, but I use 303 aerospace protectant to mask it. -
Windshield Replacement
1004ron replied to 1004ron's topic in Glass, Lenses, Lighting, Mirrors, Sunroof (BAMR), Wipers
I stopped in at their shop on Friday and the identified an error made by the installation tech - they confirmed that the windshield will be removed and didn't do so on Friday because they didn't have stock of mine - the senior tech says that they usually install a complete new one because during removal it often breaks and the time to clean the sealant off the old one also makes it cost effective to use a new one. -

A few days after the windshield install I went through the car wash and when I got home I saw a little water on the drivers side mat, so went through the car was again this afternoon checking the mats are all dry before - I have a leak. Will call tomorrow to schedule the fix - wonder if it means removal to reseal. -

Can nav be added to a 2022 Edge with Sync 4A?
1004ron replied to JohnCT's topic in Audio, Backup, Navigation & SYNC
I'm not an expert on this but believe that it is possible to add NAV but it would need a new APIM and GPS antenna - this is what I did on my wife's 2015 Mustang. I can PM you the contact for the person that sold me all the Ford hardware needed, all configured. On my 2017 Edge Sport I no longer use the in dash NAV after getting a wireless Carplay device - Waze is all I use for navigation. -
