Grupet Posted June 4, 2009 Report Share Posted June 4, 2009 Hi, I have a question about service. I went for my 7500 miles service and when i picked up my Edge the sticker in my windscreen said next service 10500 miles...??? Isn't service every 7500 miles? So should'nt my next service be at 15000 miles? It's a Limited AWD from 2008, and i lease it. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're just trying to get some extra $$$ out of you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the gullible who do not read their Owner Guides and Maintenance Schedules, they can make a lot more money. When you Leased your Edge, you were given an Owners Manual, a Maintenance Guide Booklet and a Warranty Guide booklet. Just follow the scheduled maintenance listed in the Maintenance Guide Booklet. That will be 6 months/7,500 miles for "Normal Service" (as you already knew), or 6 months/5,000 miles for "Severe Duty". "Severe Duty" is considered any vehicle used for towing and other particular driving circumstances. Check the Guide for the specifics. There are other things that need servicing (tire rotations etc), so be sure to check the Guide to be sure that all scheduled maintenance is performed on time. Good luck. :beerchug: Edited June 4, 2009 by bbf2530 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
