  1. Sorry for the late reply. The noise makes sense now. Everything else is fine, no pulsing or other issues, so I'll just live with it.
  2. I have a 2019 Edge ST with 82k. It has the factory Class II hitch. We winter in SC (from southern MI) and this year I wanted to bring my motorcycle in a trailer. Rentals proved to be overly expensive so I picked up a 6x10 Cross enclosed trailer. The trailer is 1350lbs, and my bike is 550lbs. Add in some tools and other stuff, its close to 2,000 lbs. Towing capacity is 3500 lbs. The Edge performed great. On the first leg of the trip, I left the trans in D mode and it felt sluggish as well as a first stop fuel mileage of 14.3. I switched to Sport mode and the motor really comes to life with improved power and delayed shifts. This was especially useful in the mountains of southern Ohio, West Virginia and Virginia. I let the tranny shift automatically in Sport mode and mileage improved to about 16. Overall, very happy with its performance.
  3. Hello everyone. I have a 2019 ST with 70k with the stock brake calipers. The car has been flawless and completely trouble free since purchased new. I installed new PowerStop rotors and pads about 10k miles ago and initially there were no issues, (Evolution Slotted and Drilled, Zinc Plated https://www.powerstop.com/product/po...lotted-rotors/) However, in the last 4 or 5k miles, there is some braking noise when stopping from 45mph to about 25mph. There isn't any vibration or pedal pulsing, but just an audible "hum/noise" that seems to come from the front or maybe even the front left wheel. And again, if I'm braking from say 60 or 70mph, the noise only gets loud in the 45 to 25mph range and then gets quiet again as I come to a full stop or continue to brake through that range of speed. I rotate the tires every oil change (6-9k) and everything looks fine on inspection. I also re-torque the lug nuts within 100 miles after a tire rotation and do annual brake fluid flushes. Appreciate any help. Rick
  4. With 72k, I am noticing some leakage from the left rear shock. Can someone recommend a good aftermarket replacement? Is it an easy job for a DIY'er like myself? And will the car need a re-alignment after install? Thanks very much, RPGR90s
  5. I verified my warranty is 5 years or 60k. I'm in SC until Sunday. Interesting, that I called the local Ford dealer here and they never returned my call. Oh well, I'll check with my local dealer back in MI. Poking around, I removed the air filter assy. as this info seems to suggest I have a trans filler cap. I at least wanted to check the fluid level, but mine doesn't have one. https://www.fordservicecontent.com/Ford_Content/vdirsnet/OwnerManual/Home/Content?variantid=4734&languageCode=en&countryCode=USA&Uid=G1676283&ProcUid=G1713844&userMarket=usa&div=f&vFilteringEnabled=False&buildtype=web Thank you all for your help. Really love this ST so hoping I can get this resolved for long term ownership.
  6. Thank you so much for your reply. I had the TSB you mentioned performed so I will contact my Ford dealer to see what's next. Since the car is past the warranty, I may be screwed.
  7. Good evening, I have a 2019 ST that I purchased new. It now has 52k miles and has been pretty much problem free. Saying that, the transmission has always shifted very roughly in what appears to be in the 2-3 or 3-4 shift. I had it serviced under warranty (re-programmed) and it improved slightly but now it is as rough as ever. Are there any TSB's or other solutions that the brain trust might know about? Thanks!

    Short Rant

    Love our 2019 ST. Handling, styling, comfort and plenty of power. I have two minor complaints though, so I hope Ford is listening. The gauges. Since this is a sport truck, I want to see actual analog style gauges for fuel, volts, oil pressure and engine temp. The tach is selectable as is the boost gauge, but I would like a cleaner layout. The heated steering wheel control. I would rather have a switch. Put it right next to the driver's heated seat control. If I have my Iphone plugged in and Google Play is working, I have to un-plug the phone, then go into the home screen menu to turn the heat off. That's it. btw, for a nice improvement in braking, check out the PowerStop kit with drilled/slotted rotors and ceramic pads. Installed myself and even learned there is a parking brake maintenance mode that releases the servo to fully retract the brake pistons. https://www.powerstop.com/product/power-stop-z23-brake-kit/

    USB Ports

    2019 ST and both USB ports in the center console aren't working. I've tried several different phones, cables, etc. It's not clear what fuse(s) might be the culprit. Any clear insight would be appreciated. Thanks very much, RPGR90s
  10. New owner of a '19 ST in White Platinum. Stock wheels and brakes, which seem very adequate. Love: Moonroof/Sunroof Interior quality and fit and finish Engine performance Seats extremely comfortable Aluminum pedals and nice ST touches Fuel mileage seems better than my '14 Escape Eco Boost 4 banger (about 23mpg so far, overall) Disappointments: Dash layout. Ford couldn't engineer a permanent Speedo/Tach/Fuel Gauge/Engine coolant combination for a Performance SUV? Weird how the tach is digital and has to be scrolled to (unless tranny is switched to S mode) The coolant gauge can be displayed but I've yet to figure out how the indicator works. Is it red, light blue? Heated seats will roast you on #3 setting Steering wheel is very hot initially but does turn down on its own after awhile. Overall, it seems to be a very well made car. Hoping to do some light towing with it next year. RPGR90s
