doji_nj Posted December 17, 2011 Report Share Posted December 17, 2011 (edited) Got to admit I was nervous about getting a Ford, coming from all Hondas always. We were willingnto trade reliability for some luxury, and the risk of a breakdown. We love the Edge so far! We got the premiumcare plan wto add to the certified Edge we got. In 2 weeks, the engine crank got longer, and I took it in to the dealer today after the Check Brake System came on. They semi-cleaned the terminals, jump started the car after cleaning and sent me on my way. i should have realized something was fishy right then. Went to get a state inspection and the car would not start. Called Ford roadside assistance, got a jump start and back to the dealership. After complaining to them politely, they decided to replace the battery. In the process of the battery going dead, something in the radio got screwed up at the shop and they said they have to replace the whole radio now, 6 cd changer et al. And I have to come up with the $100 deductible. Wasted day away from work. Anyway, canceled the ESP I bought at the dealer for $1400 for 3 yr/72k miles and got it from Zeigler for $1100 for 4 yr/100k miles instead. will use the money saved to install a remote starter. Any recommendations if it should be dealer installed, or any other shop can do it? Edited December 17, 2011 by doji_nj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
