smokeatr164 Posted September 14, 2014 Report Share Posted September 14, 2014 I have a 2013 Edge SE with manual seats, I wanted to move some long materials today but could not get the front seat to fold flat. In reading my owners manual it says the seat folds flat for transporting long cargo, but I could not figure it out. Everything I searched for on the forum seems to pertain to the electric seats, and nothing about the manual seat. Does anyone know if I'm missing something or is my manual wrong and i do not have this capability? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youri631 Posted September 15, 2014 Report Share Posted September 15, 2014 According to the Ford website, fold flat front passenger seat is only available as an option on the SEL and Standard on the Sport. It is not available on the SE or the Limited. I think it is strange it is not on the SE since it would make more sense, especially since the fold flat part is manual, not electric (the seat is electric, except for the tilt/fold flat, which is manual). It is very useful, but the back of the seat is in leather, which you have to protect if you are going to carry rough stuff like 2x4, it should have been plastic. Here is a link comparing the model, the fold flat seat is in the interior feature tab. http://www.ford.ca/crossovers/edge/compare-models/?models=se|sel|limited|sport#categoryInterior_Features In my mazda 6, I used to carry long load with the seat folded as far forward as possible and the headrest removed, it was not flat, but worked.

smokeatr164 Posted September 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 Youri thanks for the input, im definitely bummed that the seat doesnt fold flat. It was a great feature that I had in my Chevy, but unfortunately slipped my mind before purchasing the Edge. Atleast i was still able to fd it down flat enough to move what i needed.
