  1. My 2007 SEL AWD is doing the same thing. The dealership has run out of ideas on what to do. My Edge has been in for service over 40 working days. When some figures it out let us know so I can tell my dealership how to fix the problem>
  2. My Dealership That I go to, know me by my first name because I do alot of business with them and they have told me that it's a hit and miss with the ptu replacement. You might get it done and never have the problem again. In my case at the 7th replacement Ford decided to replace everything. They still say it might have to come in again but I hope not.
  3. Thanks Solas, I'm going through that process as we speak. I would just like everything to come to an end with my Edge having to go to the shop. Basicly if I could keep all the parts that are failling on my Edge I could build another one. I'm down to two things happening right now and that is the transmision slipping which only happens in low speeds, and my front end makes a grinding noise when I apply the brakes, but both of these problems come and go. And the dealership hasn't found out the problem yet. My list so far - NEW VISTA ROOF - NEW DOOR LOCK SYSTEM -NEW SHAFT - NEW CRANCK CASE - NEW RIGHT WHEEL BEARING - NEW LEFT WHEEL BEARING - NEW TRANSMISION SENSOR - NEW HARDWARE TO REPLACE THE 60 SIDE OF MY REAR SEAT THAT FAILED TO FOLD DOWN. AND A FEW OTHER MINOR PROBLEMS.
  4. My Edge is 10 Months old with 32,000 km. I've had my ptu replaced 7 time till the 8th time they replaced the transfer case and the shaft. Mine is a AWD SEL. I wish this was the only thing wrong with mine, It's been in 20 other times for everthing else except the tires.
  5. I live near the Ford Plant where they make the Edge in Ontario Canada. My wife Works on the line and her side of the family works there too. I have talked to the union and to Upper management at Ford, they say they can't help me with getting me out of this vehicle and getting me into another one. The answer was WE KNOW YOUR HAVING A LOT OF PROBLEMS BUT IF WE HELP YOU WE HAVE TO HELP EVERYONE ELSE. The lemon laws aren't as good here as they are in the states. I do love my Edge but she is in major trouble. I'm a person that is very quiet and never complains but if anyone that has gone through what I'm going through would understand. I'm hopping someone out there reads this and can steer me in the right direction. I just want to get on with life. Over 40 day in the shop and still having issues.
  6. I've had My Edge 11 months now and it has been in the shop over 40 working days. The list is huge on the troubles I'm having with this vehicle. The first week I had the unit it started to slip in gear changing. The dealer replaced the sensor and reprogramed the transmision. Then it was in for the rear right wheel bearing, that the dealership replaced. After a month it went in for the left wheel bearing. The satelite kept cutting out for no reason the dealership said they would have to rewire the pod on the back of the Edge. I said no that I'll let the six months run out and not renew the Satelite service. I noticed that the tail gate was rubbing against the side of the bummper. I talked to the Bodyshop manager at the dealership. He showed me that the hatch was off a little bit and that it would me major work to fix it. I said lets leave it. The transmision still slipping and getting worse. The Edge starts to leake transmision fluid all over the driveway, THIS IS THE START TO MY NIGHTMARE. Take it to dealership, they replaced the gasket on the transfer case. My wife and I go out one evening and the passanger door won't unlock. Off to the dealership they replace the electronic lock system. Leaks again they replace the gasket again. The cluster panel starts to flash one night, So I take it in again and the replace a rear sensor. Starts to leak again and I take it in, Now the dealership starts to give me a hard time. The Shop manager is starting to make the gilt trip om me. The seal has been replaced 6 times by now. And yes now the Vista roof starts to make a noise. I talk to the VP of FORD Larry Nurse customer relations. He tells me that Ford is working on problem and that there is nothing they will do in buying my Edge back. But still keep bringing it back in to the dealership and it will someday get fixed right. My brother inlaw works at the Oakville plant and so does my wife. My brother inlaw talks to the head of Enginering and tells him of all the problems I'm having. The Edge goes back to the dealership for the slipping of gears and the burning of oil and the moisture in the rear taillights and the noise in the Vista roof. The Manager and I have not so nice words to tell each other. Basicly it's all in my head. Two Enginers come in to the dealership thanks to my brother inlaw and replace the drive shaft and the crank case. Which took 8 time to do this. I take it home that night and back in the next morning for the Vista roof noise. The Tech hears the noise and I lose it again. This time they replace the hole Vista roof. I picked it up today and guess what, The Transmision slips again. What am I going to do. The dearship doesn't even want to give me a curtesy vechile any more. I NEED HELP. I HAVE OWNED 15 FORD VECHILE IN THE PAST 14 YEARS AND HAVE NEVER GONE THROUGH SOMETHING LIKE THIS.
