I know this might sound stupid but have you checked to see if the bendix spring has not broken. If the starter is turning but engine is not most likely bendix has broken.

I had a similar problem with my key flob if you take the key flob apart you will note small metal disks on all the pressure points if the disks have moved then the control will not work. They will need to be glued down again in the centre. 

A little frustrating as not all glue works, I finally used medallion adhesive 

Sound like you have air still in the system. I would change out the fluid as well.

You are suffering from Windows Tech-knowledge I have things like that happen all the time. Ford has a better idea unfortunately you have to wait until they put Blackberry tech in which happen a couple of years later.

All you can do is either live with it, take it to the dealer to have your system rebooted at about $125.00 per session or pull the main fuse and then reset everything. After taking it to my dealer twice on warranty and having the same things happen two months later I just live with it. It will go away for a while then return in its own time.

I have had a similar problem over the last few months. Ford told me it was a shiftier relay. But was told to hold off as it might cure it self, as it is rather expensive to fix, around $600.00 Canadian. So I left it and have had no problem since. Having said that the windows operating system in your car can be a problem as it does what it wants at times. Sometimes my rear hatch will only open part way or it tells me I don`t have a key to start the car even if I am sitting in car with key in hand. Fords option is to reboot the computer at about $125.00 per shot. I found if you just leave it, it will go back to normal for a while.

I had no problem ordering new one through dealer and they programmed it for me took a couple of hours. They are not cheap but they do have them if they take the effort to look them up.

Ya! know the problem, it is windows doing what it wants. I have had this happen plus many other things. But it always works perfect when it does to the dealership.

Basically you are suffering from the Windows problem that seems to come out every now and then. I have had that happen, but many other things as well. Like the other day I got out of the car and the tailgate opened. No reason just something in the computer system said open tailgate so it did. My tailgate makes up its mind when it wants to open sometimes it will open at the first push other times it takes 6 times to open, 6 inches at a time. Its not the battery, been replaced, I have also had it rebooted a number of times at $125.00 a kick still does it. Oh yea it only does it when I am not at a dealership. It will not work properly for days on end, but take it to dealership it works perfect. Also sometimes you start the car and the radio does not work, turn it off start it again and away you go. One time the GPS tried to send me in the complete opposite direction to where i was going. I use GPS only to look for shorter drives, but when it tells you to go East when you are going West and wants you to drive through a forest where there is no roads then you kind of want to not rely on it.

I just live with it, it has had all the updates everything, it is just cursed. Other than that little problem I love the car.

The biggest problem I have with mine is it has a mind of its own it will either open if it wants to or not sometimes it takes 6 tries before it will either open or close. Please don't suggest i take it to a dealer been there tried that. Two different dealers and every time I take it in it works perfect. Take it a block away try it and it will not open on first try. I thing it is cursed.

Not sure about your dealer issue, but i have had problems with my tailgate since i bought it. And every timer I take it in it works perfect. The very next day it acts up again. What I have been told is that there are four sensors in the lift ram and if they get dust or dirk on them they will act up. Yesterday it took five times for it to work today perfect.

Sounds more like a battery problem.

I have had this problem for a while. The tailgate has this habit of not opening or closing when it sees fit. I have had it to the dealership to have it rebooted and it works for a few weeks then it is back to playing games again. One time it will open and the next it only opens about a foot. Or it opens but will not close. Of course it always happens when you have an arm full. Is there some sort of sensor that needs cleaning or what?

I have factory installed door sill lights, but the Ford dealership says that they can not find a Ford part number for a replacement light. The car has been in the shop for three days trying to replace lamp. Anyone know the part number so these idiots can get this done.

The passenger door sill light was flickering so took it into dealership. Was informed that they were after market and there was no part number for them with Ford. When i told them they are a factory oppion they seemed confused.

Any one had to replace LED light in dooe sill?

I have the 2011 Sport with 22" rims and it is getting around 19 to 20 MPG. Where I live there is no such thing a highway mileage. i use cruise when I can, but even on the highway in the Vancouver, BC area, you don't get to run on actual run at substained highway speeds. Just to crowded on the highways unless you drive late at night or early in morning. Took a trip to Seattle with the Edge and was getting 22 MPG.

Dragster if your doing a proper "-" sizing on your tires when you do down from the 22in wheel to the 18' wheel your speedometer should not be off enough to be noticeable...

I agree with you but the closest I could get was about 1" smaller. It was hard to get snow tires this year as they were predicting a harsh winter so all were gone by the time I got the car.

Maybe they are not that far out it just most people around here drive like it is the Indy 500 at all times. When you are showing 60 MPH ( 90KMP) on your speedo in an 50 (80) zone and they are passing you like you are standing still.

Now I have had the 22" on for a month I think it is just me.

Love the car it gets lots of looks runs great.

Just took off 18" winter tires & rims and put big boys back on. The only problem I found with 18" tires it throws the speedo off big time.

Now the Edge is back where it needs to be. Would not run 22" in winter, too much salt on roads.

i thought my rims were doing good in the snow, until i went on the highway and i thought i was going to blow out a tire at 100 kph because the vehicle was shaking so much, i had to pull over twice to get the snow out of the rims, and now my rims are chipping after a month of having the vehicle.

its crap

And that is exactly why I got Snow tires and rims. I figure with the salt they use on the roads the rims would be screwed in one winter.

The only concerns you will have is all your friends wanting to drive it.

So i a rush to get to work this morning.

There is one thing i found out from my dealer when the Edge Sport did not show up when it was suppose to. One the Ford Edge is build in Canada, but has to be shipped to the US to get some of the sport trim. Sounds strainge to me but that would explain why my Edge came through Washington State. Two the dealer can track the car from the time it leaves the factory until it gets to the dealer. This I know because when I did not get on the day it was suppose to be here they were able to tell me where it was every day. As an example on Dec.22th it was in Wenatchee, Washington, on the 23rd it was in Kent Washington and on Dec 24th it was at the dealer.

So when the dealer says they don't know where it is, I think they might be fudging a little. One other thing I have been told; but can not confirm is thet,Ford, are giving top billing to the US market first.

My exact quote to the sales person when he asked about the sun roof except I am on the extreme other coast.

Yes if I want to see rain drops falling on my head I will do it in my house.

I ordered my Edge on Oct. 23rd and It was build on Dec.6th. Your dealer should be able to give you a build date. One thing I did not know is though it is built in Canada, to get some of the sport add ons it has to go to the US. That explains why the car was delivered through Washington State. The only two things I did not get on the Edge were DVD and sun roof. No DVD as I have no kids to use it. and no sun roof because we live in BC. It rains more then it suns out.LOL

Try using the radio volume control while the Nav voice is active

Tryed that all that happened was the radio got louder. Most likely something they need to work with. Don't really need the voice on the nav anyways. Just thought i would try it and could not get it any louder.
