I am another with this problem. I brought my 2007 Edge, 15600 miles, AWD to Midas for an oil change and the mechanic there told me about a "transmission leak" that he had found, but couldn't trace where it came from. He told me that the transmission fluid level was fine though. I dropped it off this morning to the Ford dealer (Ford of Hyannis) and was told that the leak is caused by a bad axle seal. The part is on order and hopefully will be in tomorrow. After reading the many posts on this problem, I do recall smelling the burning smell after stopping. It only happened a couple of times and I wasn't sure if it was coming from my vehicle or not. I guess it was. Thanks to all who have posted here about the leak problem in the Edge. Hopefully, the replacement seal will work and I'll be all set. We love the car otherwise.

Congrats on your new Edge. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do mine.

Many thanks to akirby and especially bbf2530 for their input on this question. It all makes sense now. Cheers!

Ok, thanks carbon. I'm sure someone on this board knows. I'll just wait it out.

Thanks. Do you know where the sensor is located?

Does anyone know where the sensor for the ouside temp is located? I notice that the outside temp reads much warmer when I first start driving, but becomes accurate as I drive along. Thanks.

We bought our '07 Edge in October and love it. I'm 54 and retiring in the 2d week of January. I'm only getting 75% of my pay though....LOL. Who says the edge is for the younger crowd? Good luck with your new ride.

Good luck with your new Edge. I hope it comes in for you on the low end of of the "6-8 weeks". You're going to love your new vehicle. I promise.

Lisa....go with the black leather. I looked at both camel and black and the camel colored dash reflected badly onto the winshield. I got the black and it's fine. Just a little glare from the chrome in the middle of the dash.
