cpnmorgan Posted December 7, 2010 Report Share Posted December 7, 2010 I have seen this mentioned a couple other places in the forum but a search did not come up with any responses discussing this specific issue. On my new 2011 Edge, at least once every time I drive it I have an issue where changing the volume via the steering wheel results in a delay followed by the volume cranking half way up. At this point I have to frantically turn the center volume know down to keep the volume from continually rising. I was wondering if many other people are experiencing this and how regularly. I know there are many issues with the MFT, most of which are minor to me, but I consider this issue a serious safety concern, so it surprises me more people aren't bringing it up here. With all of Ford emphasis on hands-off technology and driver safety, this bug seems to be a big cause for concern. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sboots88 Posted December 7, 2010 Report Share Posted December 7, 2010 I've never experienced this issue. Sounds to me like your control on the wheel needs to be replaced or at least looked at. it may be sticking... -steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krash67 Posted December 7, 2010 Report Share Posted December 7, 2010 From time to time it happens to me. Usually it is a the beginning of my drive and very cold outside and it is indexing my usb connections. I get delays when I press the voice button too. Not all the time just occasionally.

Usually when the vehicle is cold. Edited December 7, 2010 by jmclark47 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cpnmorgan Posted December 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2010 Ditto. Usually when the vehicle is cold. I do notice that it happens more towards the beginning of the drive. The indexing thing is intriguing as I always keep my ipod with over 6,000 songs on it plugged in so I wonder if it is churning through indexing those when I notice it. I will unhook the ipod on my drive home and see if I notice any difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
