I'm new to the whole TCS and RCS systems in the Edge, but yesterday evening coming home I came around a corner over some rough stuff (roads in Michigan, terrible) and then accellerated down the ramp to merge onto the freeway. I notice the TCS 'Sliding Car' icon is flashing on my dash, stays flashing for maybe 60 seconds, then just stays lit?
What the heck is that all about? Just picked up the car yesterday, so this could be user error..
Long story short, I took the next freeway exit about a mile up, pulled into a gas station, shut off the vehicle. Keyed it back on and started up. No more 'Sliding Car' light...
Anyone know anything? Should I take it back to the dealer? It's only been driven 45 miles since I got it.
Just joined this forum as I was looking around on the net, we have the same problem with our 2010 Edge. My wife was driving the about 6 weeks ago and heard a clunking noise. I drove it around and noticed the noise happened when the TCS light came on. The car would also start to bog down. This was on a Thursday. Took the car in to the dealer the next day. At the end of the day they told us that the car needed a new sensor, and they did not have it in stock, it would be in Monday. They kept the car for the w/e and Monday when we called we were told that the part had to be back-ordered, they would call us when it was in. Still have not heard from the dealer, and they do not return calls. Have stopped in, and was told that someone would contact Ford directly and get back to us. Still have not heard back.
So, here is my question. Looks like others have the same problems. Has anyone had a resolution to the problem yet?
