akirby Posted December 2, 2014 Report Share Posted December 2, 2014 That would make a lot more sense, but there is no reason that shouldn't be covered by the b2b warranty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CinnamonEdge Posted December 3, 2014 Report Share Posted December 3, 2014 Sounds like this vehicle was in an accident and rebuilt either as a used car or as a new car(by dealer or Ford prior to first purchase.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dalbeck Posted December 4, 2014 Report Share Posted December 4, 2014 Hello Robert, I was reading through this and it has made me a little discouraged. A month ago I was in an accident with my 2012 Ford Focus, its still in the shop hoping it will be done by early next week. But, I went and test drove a 2012 Ford Edge Sport AWD. Just on the small test drive it wasn't bad, the vehicle has 45k miles on it, and I put a holding deposit down while I wait for my Focus to be completed so that the dealer can take it as a trade-in. Once everything is all done with the transaction I will post back to see if I run in to any similar issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diesel350 Posted December 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2014 (edited) Hope you will LOVE the way your Edge drives! Don't settle for anything less. I definitely don't like the way the Edge Drives. Explorer is much more comfy and drives smoother. Seats in the Edge are uncomfortable, rides rough but that's expected since it's got 22 inch wheels and sport suspension, and it's fairly noisy inside. My wife loves it for some reason though. Planning on keeping it until the new RX's come out then trading this lemon in. Edited December 5, 2014 by Diesel350 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CinnamonEdge Posted December 5, 2014 Report Share Posted December 5, 2014 WTH you have very bad luck. I've never heard of a car having so many problems. Are you sure that they didn't crash this car in the first 5 miles? Sure sounds like they made the car out of all defective parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted December 5, 2014 Report Share Posted December 5, 2014 Sure seems like your Edge should simply be replaced! It seems to love the service shop a little too much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gb6049 Posted December 8, 2014 Report Share Posted December 8, 2014 Sorry to hear someone having so many problems. Over 40,000 miles on my 2011 Limited with no issues other than I wore out the front rotors and pads from the high speed slow downs on the autobahn here in Germany. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akirby Posted May 27, 2015 Report Share Posted May 27, 2015 The battery drain is probably caused by the bad shift to park sensor. It's easy to fix - just swap out the shifter assembly. If you put on new tires and the vibration persists, it's probably not the tires. Check the rotors for damage. It could also be the driveshaft.

WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted May 27, 2015 Report Share Posted May 27, 2015 Do you have the 22" wheels on your Sport, Diesel? I have heard that the firmer ride can provide additional feedback in the cabin, including vibration. If you have AWD, the driveshaft is a possibility as akirby said. In which case, I would take a look at PTU & RDU fluid levels & condition. Wheel bearings were pointed out earlier as a likely suspect, did you have a chance to verify them? As far as alignment goes, sometimes the subframe has to be adjusted a bit for that last bit of perfection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akirby Posted May 28, 2015 Report Share Posted May 28, 2015 Not just the wheel bearings but the fit of the wheel onto the hub. Factory wheels should be fine but you never know. Another option is to have them balance the wheels on the vehicle to account for the entire rotating mass including the rotor and hub. BTW - there is no such thing as a RWD Edge - only FWD or AWD. I assume you meant AWD. Even if the rear diff isn't engaged the driveshaft is still spinning and if it's out of balance you could get a vibration.
