I justed had it done on Wednesday here in Canada. Make sure to mention your problem as describe in the reason for recall as they mentionned : "... certain vehicule may experience ...."
Remember, if you don't have the new A4 Map SD Card, your NAV system will not work with this upgrade. Ford will provide you one for free, ask for it ... :-) ...

Ford call it recall 12S40 ...

Install completed successfully. I have a few other issues (trim lifting and leaking tires) so i went to the dealer and will be bringing the car in for the repairs. They did indicate there is a recall on the nav card so apparently i will be receiving a new nav card...
In fact there is a recall, I justed had it done on Wednesday here in Canada.
If you have a 2011 Edge it is call Application Performance Upgrade 11A03 - Supplement #02
If you have a 2012 or 2013, it is call Application Performance Upgrade 12A04

The dealer wrote on my receipt that he did 12A04 even if I have a 2011 ... doesn't really matters, it is the same upgrade ...

My wife had problems with her cell phone (Motorola Razr V3) losing connection or with bad bluetooth performance ... Seems to be OK now ... time will tell. Oh ya, temperature is back in the middle screen ... Yeah ! Also, the interaction with my Ipod Touch (4th gen) seems to be faster including the first time it is "scanning" (indexing) the database ...

Update for info ...
Went back on winter tires last Friday (Nov. 15th) and self-learning process did it again !!! So in resume, this is the third wheel changes I did (Original chrome clad to and from Winter mags) with succes without reprogramming, without a warning message and with a TPMS fully working ... Did the low pressure test again today and warning came on ... Fill some air in it and gone is the message ...

Spring update ...
As posted here : http://www.fordedgef...9630#entry79630
I, for one, last fall, put up my winter tires on with new rims and 4 Ford original new sensors last October and never had to deal with programming them. I was ready for it, I had bought the programmer for it.
2 weeks ago, had the summer chrome clad wheels put back on and no reprogramming at all ...
The learning process seems automatic each times.
PS : Never heard about the "Canadian theory" of the TPMS, but I've got a Canadian 2011 Edge limited and living in Canada (Montreal area)

Considering how bridges in Montreal hold up, Ford is probably just being pro-active. In a couple more months it will be accurate again...
Got to give it to you, it's a good one !! But considering that this one was built by a private company and it is a revenue ($$) bridge, it might stay up for a while !

Upgrade went wrong
It stalled on the first screen for over 1 h 30 and then I tried to do it again ... it went on for a while and stalled again in the third step (6 out of 9) ...
Now everything is froozen in the middle of the proccess without giving me access to the screen. Can't reach the "master reset" option, the screen always comes back to the frozen process very fast ...within a second ...
Can still manage to controls most of it thru the steering controls ...
Removed the 29 fuse overnignt will see today the follow-up ... grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
I might suggest to others a master reset BEFORE starting the process ....
EDIT : It's frozen between the 6 and 7th screen (out of 9) printed in the "how to upgrade ..." booklet provided in the package. Going to the dealer tomorrow (Monday) morning ...
Follow Up
Got to the dealer today. They think the USB key was corrupted .... They download a fresh version on a new usb fob, try the reinstallation process and everything went smooth. (Couldn't do it last sunday as the Ford download site was down ...and still is !!)
Everything is in good working condition now ... and I got my smile back !!! :hyper:
New maps are really up to date, there are streets less then a year old on the map ... Unfortunaly there is a 12 months old major bridge missing on highway 25 linking Montreal and Laval in the Montreal Area .... (TomTom and Garmin have it ...)

I think the theories on the Canadian delay were semi correct. I noticed an "FR" written in blue marker on the lable of the package, which I'm making the assumption that these packages had to be created special for the CDN market. The software was likely fine, just some packaging / documentation changes.
Just for info : Being French Canadian and living in Quebec, there were no "FR" marking on mine ... Just the regular address on the label.
Install has yet to come this weekend ...
-
The shinny blue package has arrived here too (Montréal suburb area) ... Everything is bilingual (How-to, user guide, packaging, and so on) ... and in a really good French I might add. (Will see later for the French quality of the software...)
Got the full package with the USB drive and SD card ... Not an appointment to the dealer ...
Question : the new SD card for maps has been identified as "A3 Map Version" ... Bought the Edge last August with "A1" maps that looks like 5 to 7 years of age according to my relatively new residential area, wonder if there was ever an "A2 Map Version" ??...
Also, inside the plastic box, there is that note : "The data enclosed is updated annually. For more information to purchase an update ... bla bla bla... go to your Ford Dealer" - I'm anxious to see that happen in real world in 2013 !!!
Will install over the weekend ...
-
It does say "United States /Canada" right on the front...
It only means that the map coverage includes both countries ...
My current Canadian original box says : "Map Coverage - United States / Canada" and Languages : "English / Canadien Francais / Espanol"
-
The first one to get the Canadian package and post pictures (with proof it's Canadian, and not dealer) wins.
On your mark... get set.....go!!!
OK but won't hold my breath !!! :boring:
As for the possibility of a French version delaying the shipping, it might be a possibility, but I don't think that in 2012 it should be an issue, after all, all the previous released were bilingual or trilingual ... they already have a working recipe for the screen and voice recognition !
And as a French Canadian, as long as they don't use an automated translator such as Google, I can live with it ... so please Ford... ship it !!!

How about these Ram-Mount from GPS City ...? http://www.gpscity.c...1&t=iPad+Mounts
I use their products for my Ipod Touch 4th gen, very solid and tight fit mount and adjustable arm ...
You can use a mount wizard on the manufacturer site http://www.ram-mount.../Default.aspx#/

Hi guys, I don't experience that problem, but while looking for another issue, i found this ....
Here's what could be the solution to the problem, it has been posted by "FordGuru" in the "recall" section of this forum
It's has been dated by Ford on March 7th 2012 for TSB 12-03-03, it's called :
tsb12-03-03 Power Liftgate Opening - Intermittent Operation - Built on or Before 3/2/2012
Here's the link to post # 19 of that section ... http://www.fordedgef...topic/9075-q-a/
Hope the fix is the right one for you guys ....

Hi everyone
Last month I bought a brand new 2011 Edge Limited AWD with the 18 in. chrome wheels and cut the final deal including 4 Pirelli Scorpion Ice and Snow winter tires.
Having winter tires out here is not a choice, living in Quebec, Canada, winter tires are mandatory from December 15th to March 15th since 2008 but TPMS are not .... From a safety point, it is a good thing to install winter tires from mid-November to Avril.
Trying to save the chrome wheels from going thru tire changes twice a year that would surely bring some minor damage to the finish everytime (looks easily damageable), I bought a full set of GLR Wheels, a nice looking winter mag wheels model Escobar-M http://www.glrwheels.../escobar-m.html on for 110 $/ea to mount my winter tires. From then, I will be able to change the wheels seasonnaly myself.
Being who I am, I've decided that I wouldn't go thru 4-5 months with the full 4 inches left display showing a warning message on everytime I (or my other half) drive the Edge so I bought 4 TPMS from the dealer AND the programmer. I know, I would not go thru the warning message for 5 months, while dealing for these this week, the TPMS warning light keeps coming on and off on my 2009 Dodge Charger and I hate it !!!
Back to the TPMS, right now and until December 14th, in Canada, Ford dealers are selling tires and tire parts (National Tire Event) at 10-15 % discount, so I bought a full TPMS kit :
4 TPMS called TPMS-12 (part no. 9L3Z-1A189-A) for $56.60 /each
1 programmer called TPMS-19 (part no. 8C2Z-1A203-A) for $32.60. Yup 32 bucks !!! - That programmer is the exact same piece sold for 45 $ by tirerack.com here : http://www.tirerack....itoring+Systems
By Friday, my mechanic will have received and installed the wheels and tires and I will program the TPMS sensors and let you know how it went.
Just an update on my situation
A little work kept me away from home and had me far from my PC ...
After installation, the tpms was not reprogrammed, I was waiting to get THE message and after a month, none came yet !!! I provoke a "low pressure" situation and the message came on ....Filled it again with normal pressure and it dissappeared - Everything is OK !!!
Will see what happen for the spring tire change ...
-
The new power steering pump was installed yesterday (Nov 7th)... and .......... no change - There is still a "steel" noise coming from turning the wheel to either end while moving (slow speed turning right or left) ...
They are keeping the Edge to investigate further ...
Will keep you up to date ..

Just found this site which propose ALL the LED bulb replacement by part number and light position - Use the car selector and it's all there ...
http://www.superbrig...bulb_finder.php
For the 2011 Edge with HID find the bulb replacement you want here : http://www.superbrig...lamps/20/470/52 including dome and courtesy lights but not a word about the side view mirror light ?..? Even my owner's manual doesn't say a word about these lights that I have on my Limited ...

I just checked and the sticker on it says 2011.
So, I put the SD card in my computer and looked at the files. The data is from Dec 16, 2010.
Same thing out here.
I'm in Montreal, Canada and I took possession of my brand new 2011 Edge Limited on August 31st.
The plastic box containing the nav card says : "Map Version A1" and I read the SD card on my PC and the data file is also dated from "Dec 16th 2010" but on the text file the map are listed as from June 2nd 2010 and not counting that there are not from 2010, but at the most from 2007 in my area.
The text file says : " Countries=US,CA - Map=20100602 - Nuance=20100602 - Gracenote=20100318"
Hope Ford will update the data soon because for example, the area where I live is 4 to 7 years old and only the older part (6-7 years) are on the Ford nav system.
On my TomTom, I went thru 4 free full map update during the same period and a few hundreds of "community update" ...
P.S. : For info, the whole card contains 14,1 Gb of data

*** Solution ?? ***
Hi guys
Since August 31st, I have a brand new 2011 Edge AWD Limited that just showed this noise a couple of days ago..
I went to my dealer this week and they had a lot of "bla bla" over a possible noisy power stering pump but after a lot of insisting from my part, they search in their "bible" and they found a TSB on this thing. It is going back next Wednesday ...
The number here in Canada is TSB 11-9-4
I'll let you know next weekend about it ...
OK Guys
The TSB was done today and guess what ... No change !!
I ended up with two mechanics that came out to hear ...they think again that it is the power streeing pump that is anormally noisy. They're ordering a new one ... another trip to the dealer to come ...
