  1. GTSnake.....Thank you so much for sending me the links! It made me call Perilli and look further into my tire situation. I was able to ask questions and get some answers and options. Again, thanks for looking out, that is what I came on this platform for.
  2. Thank you todd92, for your opinion and for pointing that out! Just came on here for some help and advice which you so kindly gave. Your right! I am a female who brought a performance option I didn't need, understand, or want. THANKS for that advice and help. Now, I know what to get next time, sweetie! THANK YOU, STBEAST for understanding! I came on here for advice because I wasn't sure and knew there were some people with the same/similar car that might be helpful. Again, I have leased so many Edge's since 2007 and never had this many problems in less than 2 years of having the car. And I am certainly not going to come on here to try to get advice but then lie about how I am driving the car. If I drive crazy, then I'm going to say so. So, guess what? I decided to call Perilli about the tires and BINGO, they said the ZR is for extremely high speeds and made with very soft rubber, so you can drive normally every day, those particular tires will for a fact go bald faster and around a few years. I SAID OK, SO I AM NOT CRAZY AND I AM NOT DRIVING CRAZY LIKE I SAID IN MY EARLIER POST. They confirmed it's the type of tires and no it's not my fault. The dealer may be trying to get in on some service and parts $$ but I did tell the service lady I was going to find a workaround (cheaper way) to replace these things on the car and she said no problem she would too! LOL
  3. Thanks for replying! Yes, I could see that the tires were bald. I changed to used tires. 4 for $290 Perilli
  4. Thanks for replying! Yes, I love the red calipers, that is what sold me on the car! I don't think I had normal rapid wear on brake pads. I got the premium rear brakes from Advance Auto ($59.99) and had my backyard mechanic who has been doing brakes for years change them for $50. He looked at my rotors and said "You do not need to change these rotors, they're ok". I still will take a photo of my rotors once I leave work today and upload them.
  5. Thanks for replying!!! Hi, so I took a detour. I got the premium rear brakes from Advance Auto ($59.99) and had my backyard mechanic who has been doing brakes for years change them for $50. He looked at my rotors and said "You do not need to change these rotors, they're ok". The brakes YES it was flat as a pancake...SMH! As far as the tires go, my tires came with 265/40ZR/21 (105Y) Perilli. I went to a used tire place and they had 4 used Perilli tires same tire size and speed number ---except it was (101Y) not (105Y) 265/40ZR/21 (101Y) . I know it is the weight difference, but I was told it would be ok. I not hauling huge furniture in my truck or anything. The sticker on the door said I have to put on (105Y). Hopefully, I am ok because I drove about 4hours yesterday on the highway and everything seemed smooth. Just trying to keep the truck up until I have to turn it in.
  6. I (leased) my New 2022 Edge ST brand new 2 years ago. Once I started driving it and stopped at lights, I would hear a loud squealing noise (remember brand new). I took it to the dealer service twice and complained and they said it was normal because it is a high performance vehicle/brakes. So til this day, it still squeals whenever I stop at a light. I thought, I wonder if any other people with Edge ST's hear the same noise. OK, so here is the kicker. I have been leasing Ford since 2007 and never had these issues 2 years in. I have had 3 oil changes (with tire rotation and checks) so far. My Edge currently has 23,0000 miles on it. A few weeks ago when I got the 3rd oil change at the Ford dealership service area, they had to: CHANGE MY BATTERY BECAUSE IT WAS GOING DEAD TOLD ME MY BRAKES ARE BAD AND NEED CHANGING MY ROTORS ARE BAD AND NEED CHANGING MY TIRES (by the way which are $400each) ARE BALD AND NEED CHANGING I do not drive crazy with my car, I have little children so I am very careful how I drive. Again, I have had leases since 2007 and never had to do this with any of my new leases. I don't know what to do because this stuff is not covered under warranty except for the battery which they changed for me. The tires are like special tires because it's ZR 21-inch high-speed tires. ( not that easy to get used ). I am hearing all tires have to be the same or I will mess up the All Wheel Drive on the Edge. I am so mad right now. This stuff is expensive (rotors too) and I feel like something is up. I should not be having these problems 2 years in. I love my truck, it's cute but I can't......smh Does anyone else have a similar problems or do I have a dud? Any help or advice?
