Ghastly Posted June 11, 2010 Report Share Posted June 11, 2010 Sorry for the duplicate thread . . .I'm new to the forums. I'm a bit late to this thread / party, but thought I would start this discussion since I've been searching the forums for info. I just bought a 2008 Edge Limited with (gulp) 46,000 miles on it. Obviously, the 3/30,000 warranty is moot, but the 5/60,000 is still in place. I tried to go to the Ford ESP site and shop for an extended warranty that may cover items I've been reading about on the boards (chrome on the wheels, issues with the vista roof, etc). Due to the mileage, I don't qualify. Otherwise, the vehicle is in great shape. Does anyone have any suggestions? Any "honest" ESP vendors out there? Any help would be appreciated and I'm sure others on the boards would find it useful as well. Thanks in advance! Ghastly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike6ds Posted June 19, 2010 Report Share Posted June 19, 2010 I too just purchased a used edge out of the factory warranty. I did some research prior to purchasing and found that you can still get the Ford ESP plan, but you have to get the car inspected. Check out fordwarrantys.com . The inspection around $120 if i remember. This website also has coupon codes that you can google. I think the one i found saved around $180. Also, when you're filling out the quote be sure to give your email. I received a promo code for 185 off if i signed up within the next day. My dealer ended up matching the price I had online so I didn't need to go this route. Hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love my Edge, but based on issues with my last truck (1999 Dodge Durango), the long term maintenance cost was the biggest source of stress I was dealing with. My Edge is over 46,000 miles, but the deal I got on the price was too good to pass up - especially for the Limited trim level. The prices don't seem too bad - I'll take a deeper look over the next day or two. Thanks again! Ghastly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
