Bought an Edge 2011 SEL on October 23rd. Drove perfect for four weeks, nearly 45o miles. SYNC worked perfectly, easing bluetooth pairing with iphone 4. The coming back from the grocery store one day, screen rebooted and continued to do so.This was the error message:

Took it into Galpin Ford here in LA which is the largest Ford dealership in the world. They said they hadn't seen this yet. That was last Tuesday. Today, the car was supposed to be ready. Needed the APIM replaced, and a software update they were waiting on. Today they informed me it would still be a couple of weeks. The service technician has been nice enough, but this is becoming truly maddening at this point. Apparently he said, this was now happening to other vehicles as well. How Ford couldn't of run this software through more extensive diagnostics is beyond me. Will update when I know more. In the meantime I told them the Honda civic they gave me as a loaner was no longer acceptable and I need a comparable vehicle to the 40K + car I just bought not four weeks ago. This is my first Ford having driven Toyotas for 12 years with never a problem. Contemplating selling the damn thing when I get it back.
