2013 EDGE Trailer Sway ON and fuel efficiency

Recommended Posts

Hello everyone,

 

My Edge: 2013, SEL, AWD, Tow Package

 

Questions:

1. The Trailer Sway is ON by default and can be turned OFF in the Settings, but at the next key cycle it will turn ON again. I ordered the tow package but I will tow maybe once or twice a year a small trailer, so I wanted to torn OFF the trailer sway feature for the most of the time. Is there any option to do this?

2. If I turn OFF the Trailer Sway, will the gas consumption improve? Right now after having my EDGE for 3 months, I'm a little off than what I was expected.

 

Thanks,

jedi_m

Trailer sway has nothing to do with fuel economy. There is no reason to turn it off, just leave it on.

 

Ford's AWD system takes a long time to break in, usually more than 5000 miles, so just wait a bit more before judging the fuel economy.
