Just bought a lightly used 2013 Edge SEL and I'm having the same problem. There is an S on the shift pattern with the +/- buttons on the side of the shifter but it automatically goes into manual mode without touching the shift buttons.

 

The Ford dealer is telling me that Sport Mode was an option because the manual says (if equipped) by the description. It was my understanding that it was standard on all 2013 and newer vehicles. All the other vehicles I test drove had it so I did not even think to check because I saw the S on the shift pattern.

I think I posted this elsewhere but I had my sport mode fixed a while ago. They reflashed the PCM. Wow, what a difference.

 

Even without using sport mode, there is a huge gain in performance. I always thought my edge was sluggish. I was told once that it was because I have 20" wheels on a SEL. Don't know why that would make any difference. Now driving in D is like using S and driving in S is just awesome.

 

If your transmission goes directly to manual shift when putting the selector in S, HAVE IT FIXED. You won't regret it.
