My Sonata had it, traded it for the edge. Was entertaining for a while then stopped using it as was just as simple to keep foot on brake or put it in park waiting on drive through.
With Fords decision to not build out it's EV plant and not build the 3 row electric SUV, anyone know if this means Edge won't be discontinued for 2025?
Since your car is older they probably have accumulated a lot of road grunge in the hinge area and have tightened up from lack of use. Spray some silicon or lubricant of your choice liberally in the hinge area and let it sit for a while, then try folding the mirror again and try to work the lubricant in. It may take a fair amount of pressure to get it to lose the first time or too (unless completely seized up which I doubt). Mine are a little tight and takes more pressure than a slight push.
I know you ordered the 2023, and yes, it should be pretty much identical, but for those in need "hard copy" if you download the pdf, take it to a print shop, they can print it professionally and bind it for probably close to what a new one goes for.
You've told us Insurer says corrosion, what did mechanic say? Generally, they would say they missed it and add it to claim if in fact they believe accident caused it. They get more work and guaranteed payment that way. Sounds like it may be co-incidental, but we would just be guessing without the mechanic's follow up report. If you feel the mechanic is wrong for whatever reason, talk with them and if still not happy inform them you are going to have it towed to another mechanic for a 2nd opinion.
"You Do Not Have Permission" is the message I get when I try to view response to my post on "What is this green Wire" thread. Can't even find thread any longer, assuming due to this message. Makes no sense, generic thread, I posted to it, and now can't even see my own post. Anyone have an idea? I did write Admin.
You may, and I say may, be able to have a decoupler installed. There are companies that make them for this purpose. Not sure if they make one for 2024 Edge, but I remember seeing them when I found out I couldn't flat tow a manual tranny Tacoma after dealer told me I could. That's a whole nother story....
Doubt you will have a warranty problem. If it doesn't show visable abuse, then very hard not to warranty, unless they open it and find peanut butter or similar.
People use to debadge the Hyundai Genesis when it first came out. Dealers pulled logos and put the "Wings" on it to as an upgrade charge. Funny how similar it is to Aston Martin. Great cars and they knew it, but they were embarrassed being a Hyundai. Now it's a badge of honor.
There is a tray you can put in there. It came on the earlier models such as 2021 and "should" fit your year as nothing else changed. Any Ford part dealer should be able to look it up, or you could look in a junk yard or possibly ebay for a used one.
