baba_ali - Please keep us posted on what happens with your 3 issues / problems in case this happens to me or anyone else. I keep hearing about the metric / imperial problem for the Navi and your # 2 is scary to, hope this is not a permanant prob and does get fixed Tony

Nice, wonder how many others have this issue? Should have done a poll, I'm curious to know if other 2011 owners are no having this issue and why it's in certain vehicles only that this is happening? Any news from the dealer on a fix yet? Tony

Are you saying then that any 18" wheel from a 2009 - 2010 Edge be it SEL or Limited will fit no problems on the 2011 model as it's the same width, offset etc.... If that's the case, it will certainly open up some more options for me! Thanks! Tony

Hello, I have a 2011 Ford Edge Limited on it's way and would like to buy a set of 18" Original Equipment Ford Edge wheels from a 2011 Edge with TPS that I can use for the winter. I plan on purchasing (4) new winter tires in a 235/65/18 to use with these wheels so I don't really need tires but if they are already mounted on the wheels, that's fine. Ideally I am looking for someone in Montreal or Toronto or in Canada so I can just pick them up locally or have them shipped to me if pricing is fair. Please let me know or send photo's of what you have as I will need them by November 15th - 25th or around there latest. I am open to previous years Edge models e.g. 2009 - 2010 18" wheels if they are an identical fit and would work just as good as the 2011's. Thanks, Tony

Great question, I've been trying to find this out myself and was going to post this as well. I am picking up a 2011 Limited with 20's but also need to know if i can use some 18's from previous models / years?? Has Ford done anything that would not allow SEL or Limited 18" mags for example from 2008 - 2009 - 2010 to fit on the 2011's? Are the widths the same and bolt pattern to? 2011sport - as long as your overall tire height / ratio remains the same, you will have no problem providing we find out if the wheels are the same width, size, bolt pattern etc.. I'm looking for a set of rims for the winter and need them quickly also! Tony

Jhnybgd, What size are they (18's or 20's) and from what model year edge? Are they brand new and do they have the TPS sensors in them? I'm "unofficially" looking for a set of winter rims for my 2011 and checking out my options right now. Where you located? Tony

I have the iphone 4 as well, i do all my reading and posting from it, I’m always on this site and never a problem. When you get to this web page (I started by doing a search for it on Google), once loaded you have to touch / press "Full Version" to see the site properly. On my end, all is fine with iphone 4 and this site compatibility. Tony

Thanks for the replies everyone. Like choff1138 stated, living in Quebec requires me to run winter tires, I am not allowed to go all season anymore. I was (and possibly still am) on the fence between the AWD and FWD...I should be ordering the vehicle next week and I was finally priced out for the FWD which is affordable for me but the AWD put me slightly over the top of what I want to be paying so I opted out of it, that and I don't think I really need it..what do you think: Yes, we can and do get tons of snow, however, for starters, my wife and I do not drive the car to work. We use public transport (bus) which stops 3 houses away from me and is a 25 minute bus ride to work and to boot, the bus stops INSIDE the building I work in so I never see the outside. The bus has its own reserved lane in the morning so I fly by the traffic which would take around 1 hour to get to work vs. my awesome 25 minutes. Secondly, if we get very heavy snowfall, I wouldn't drive the car unless I had to, if we get a storm, we'll just stay home and car is always parked inside our garage. If I need to go out and it storms, I’ll just wait until tomorrow. My father drives a Caddy, FWD with a decent set of snow tires with traction control and he loves it, never a problem once and he drives in all conditions, I just sold my 1996 Impala SS RWD and also didn't have any problems in the snow based on my driving habits and the torque on the SS was simply insane, I can't imagine needing the AWD Limited now? I don't go up North much, and don't tow in winter, not to mention having more "parts" for the AWD scares me should it brake one day....$$$$!!! Am I making a mistake going with the FWD? Regardless of which I pick, I still need a solution to my winter rims dilemma...I need to find some rims to run in the winter on this truck, I refuse to use the chrome 20's for this, I need a set of 18's but not sure what direction to go in and I hear the TPS is fairly important. Liked i asked, will previous years of the edge (say 2009 or 2010) models rims fit on the 2011 models and did those years come with the TPS sensors Thanks! Tony

Just curious, I've bought tires from Tire Rack in the USA before for previous cars I’ve owned and was curious to see what they had in terms of rims. They don't seem to have any winter steelies out yet however when i used my search criteria of 2010 Ford Edge FWD to find rims, i came across tons of options that i really liked, they would be nicer than going all Black steel for sure! This is the link to my search results: http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/results.jsp?sort=Price&autoMake=Ford&autoModel=Edge+Limited&autoYear=2010&autoModClar=FWD&filterSize=18&filterFinish=All&filterBrand=All&filterSpecial=false&filterNew=All I filtered by price and size (18") and got all these hits! Ok, so, being 2010 Edge wheel alternatives, will any of these fit on my 2011? They do not have anything yet listed for 2011 so that's why I'm asking, i can't use the 2011 year in the search. Also, do i need to worry about the Offset, Backspacing, or Bolt Pattern? I'm guessing these should all be already pre-configured to fit correctly on the edge no and the quality of the rims should be good for the weight of the truck? The nice part is the suggested wheel size they show is exactly the size i would need to run for winter tires of 245/60/18. It'll be nicer to have a cheap pair of mags with winter tires. My budget for rims alone is about $500 - $550 and around that for brand new tires, looking to walk away spending $1000 for a wheel and tire combo MAX, lower would be better if i found a used set of Edge wheels at a decent price.

Hey Everyone, I'm about a week shy from ordering my 2011 Edge Limited FWD and expected delivery for me is mid November to mid December. As i live in Quebec i won’t even be able to drive it off the lot with the All Season tires it comes with as the law here states that i need WINTER tires to drive and god forbid something happens with "illegal" tires on my car, who knows what the insurance will do. As i am getting the 20" option, i am not going to use those in the snow and salt and also don't feel like constantly swapping tires on those rims each season, the less work i do on them the better, I'd rather have a set of rims for summer and another for the winter. I want to keep the 20's for the summer and run 18's in the winter using the stock 18" tire size shown on the Ford site of 245/60/18 to keep the same height / diamter and found a decent price on winter tires in size as well. So my questions are... a - Will previous years rims e.g. wheels from 2008 - 2010 fit on the 2011 Edge? Where there any changes that were done that would not allow older Edge rims to fit on this new model? b - Where would be the cheapest place (besides looking in the classifieds here) that would either sell used Edge rims (I already tried ebay and Kijjiji). I would "prefer" picking up some OEM 18's from previous years models as they would prob be fairly inexpensive however i am also looking for even a set of plain old all black steel or aluminum wheels that many people put on as their winter rims, these are also usually very cheap but can't find any online? c - What is the width of the 18" rim that typically fits the Edge? I know it's 18", but 18 x what? Lastly, d - Is there another Ford vehicle that shares the same 18" Edge wheel specs that i could look for that i could use as a winter rim? Does the flex, or other model have interchangeable wheels? This would then open some more doors and have wider selection to look through. If anyone wants to also share their thoughts on other alternatives that i can do or use, please chime in. I need to figure this out hopefully very soon as I need would like this figured out before i order my car next week. Thanks in advance!!! Tony

Congrats on your delivery! Your car looks absolutely fantastic, it really does. I am also curious about your Sync issues, what are they and will they be getting fixed? Seems like many owners be it Edge or MKX are commenting on troubles with Sync and my touch which is a little concerning. My question, is Ford being made aware of all the different issues people are having by either the owners or dealers? Is someone reporting them so they get fixed now and are not there on future builds? I am just about ready to order, actually the exact same setup as Controleur2001 but these sudden issues make me hesitate as many people don't like buying a car on it's first year of retooling. Tony

I was waiting to read "and then I woke up and the nightmare was over"…guess it wasn’t a dream
