  1. Same here. Adding coolant now and then. Looks like its one inch low now. (65K-2013) Typically I work on my own cars but I'm not sure if I'm down for pulling the timing chains et.al , during my xmas leave to get at the water pump. Local dealer says check out the thermostat housing area for leaks, as he's had a couple of those on Edge's. Unfortunately when I checked mine last night with a bright LED light there were no leaks. Just follow the coolant hose around to the top right of the engine to locate. I had no idea Ford would bury the water pump - basically inside the engine. This may be expensive before its all over with. But I cant have a fairly expensive car self destruct on its own without putting a fix on it...
  2. I have the driver's side- passenger door, "door ajar" acting up on my 2013 Edge. I pulled the top torx inside fastener as was suggested some posts ago. And sprayed with contact cleaner, through the threaded hole. Low and behold what did I hear? A micro switch. The same micro switch actuator sound that I heard when I took the stem and probed the actual white plunger in an up and down motion. So after spraying again I took the long red stem off the spray can, put it through the threaded hole aimed at about one o'clock and was able to run the switch 20 or so cycles listening to the clicks. As a E tech I wish I had some technical insight that would fix this problem for sure but I've been too busy with other issues. I hope this helps in some small way. Thanks to the guys who took the photos and the guy who suggested pulling that torx bolt out! Wife's car is good to go. p/s I was only able to hear the micro switch in a closed quiet garage. And locating the switch with the spray stem through the hole takes persistence. Also stick with plastic safe contact cleaner.
