  1. been reading a lot on here......my parents bought an edge a few weeks ago its a 2008 with less than 50k miles. after driving it only a few thousand miles it started missing horribly. when i scanned it i got misfire and coil codes. since the dealer would not give me specifications and procedures on how to test the coils i switched their cylinders to see if the miss followed. when the same cylinders were found to be missing i called the dealer again asking if they had heard of any pcm issues. they said no and asked me to bring the vehicle in. after they looked at the edge they determined all 6 coils, plugs and the pcm needed changed as maintanance for the cost of $2500. called ford they talked to the dealer and determined that the coils burnt up and caused the pcm to burn up. ive tinkered with cars for a while so this all sounds like a heap of BS. they said if the pcm had caused it then ford would cover it........wow even if i believed the coils killed the pcm i would still be pissed that the coils failed simultaneously. further still why were they engineered so that they burnt up the pcm (poor product developement, faulty product) so now that ford told us to get bent does anyone know any decent lawyers in the ohio area. i honestly dont thnk i will ever buy a ford new or used.......the service has been awful my questions get answered with questions i never asked. can any techs out there explain to me how if even possible the coils can fry the pcm when the pcm controls the coils. theres wayy tooo much of these similar cases for me to roll over and let ford win
