Hi From Over The Pond (I Think I Should Have Posted Question Here)

[DavesEdge]

Hi All

 

Having just found out that my registration has been activated, I would just like to start by saying Merry Xmas, Happy New Year.

 

Just over a year ago I purchased an Edge Titanium with Lux Pack option. Have had a fair few issues with car until it went in for some warranty work (oil leak from rear diff (basically)). I think that whilst it was in, the on board computer system was reset, thereby correcting most of my issues.

 

I will be taking it back again soon for more warranty work, but was wondering what your thoughts are on this car over the pond, as in good, bad or indifferent?

 

The biggest gripe of mine at the moment is the sat nav, telling me to take the sixth exit at a roundabout (there was only three exits on the whole roundabout, lol). Also telling me to take the third exit off another roundabout (this was a 'T' junction, what ever next I wonder).

 

Don't get me wrong, I am still really enjoying my car, even after just over a year of ownership.

Hey Dave. Welcome. Man how I hate @$!/^&^×=% round-a-bouts. There's one in front of a local retirement center. Every once-in-a-while you see a car stuck up on the center berm where the driver couldn't figure out which exit to take, so they went straighr. (Bless their souls, I'll be there soon enough.)

 

As to your question, I'm driving a 2009 Lincoln MKX and it's still in perfect condition. Now I drive sensible and do all the maintenance, but if you take care of your new "baby", it will last, and last and last. Just avoid driving near any retirement centers .... Cheers, and welcome to the group.

Welcome! I am not fond of the navigation, so I use CarPlay most of the time now.

 

Oh and round abouts are amazing! Keeps the flow of traffic, I wish we had more of them around me (more and more are coming as new developments are built).

forget the navigation on these. ford needs to do some more thinking beyond what they've done.. because it as absolutely awful. i tend to always print out some google maps before i take a trip, and if they are wrong, or i get lost, navigation helps me get back on track. otherwise, it takes me the LONG way most of the time (and yes i've checked the settings)

 

welcome to the forums!
