If your insurance company is willing to pay for glass without sound deadening, talk to Safelite and tell them you will pay the extra. But first I would see if the insurance company woukd be willing to pay for OEM spec.

All moving parts (especially horizontal sliding parts exposed to rain, dirt and road grime) need lubricating. MactFordEdge has an excellent YouTube video on lubing the BAMR. I use Super Lube (contains PTFE) on mine, every four to six months. Takes only minutes, less time than it took you to enter your post. I just lubed mine, opening slow after the winter. Found a bit of gunk in the passenger rails. Start to finish, including time to open and get a small step ladder, took less than five minutes. Works great now. If your in a hurry, you can use spray silicone. Won't last as long, but it does work and it's a fast way to get the job done.

As this area is well above the weatherstripping, I doubt adding additional weatherstripping would help. It almost looks like the door is forming a low pressure center in the area of the drain. As an expirment, I would be tempted to clean the door and then apply tape over the drain area, just to see it anything changes; as far as any new accumulation. If it does, changing the size or shape of the drain may be the answer.

Try running a test on the climate control module. http://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/15071-climate-control-problem/

? really nice touch. Very distinctive, unique. Makes me want to put on a set of whitewalls on my Platinum White MKX. lol

Does your temp gauge read in the normal zone?

Believe you may be right. They did say that it required a newer (different) coolant that Ford bound to protect better. (Picture Homer Simpson standing like deer in the headlights, nodding and saying "duhhh ok").

If I remember correctly, it was to neutralize acids in the system (wasn't paying too close attention).

I remember asking about the cost associated with changing the coolant at the dealer. He told me that one of the things they do after the drain is to run a neutralizer through the system. Said it was necessary. Then refill.

Years ago, on my 1998 Mercury Sable, had it in for an oil change and they replaced the "throttle rod" on recall. They had a woman working as the service rep and she could not explain what it did, why it went bad and anything about the recall (other than it needed to be replaced).

Bad load of gas, clogged filter?

I decided to put on a new set of tires, did the due diligence and picked the Bridgestone Dueler's (same as what I had on the car). Printed out the webpage and took it into local service dept. They had no problem matching price (for the tires, regular labor, which I had no problem with, at least it wasn't a high school dropout who had his mind on something else). Point is, price IS negotiable.

Makes me wonder if the fuel pump is getting weak. (Or some other weaknees in the fuel manifold).

The PTU isn't a regular maintenance item so they didn't check the fluid level. Usually they will look for leaks.

If you consider the costs of what maintenance actually costs, it ☆might☆ be worth considering. Here's the estimated costs for a 2017, normal driving, 4 cyl. engine. 10K $53-$94 20k $103-$166 30k $99-$170 40k $103-$166 50k $53-$94 60k $141-$231 70k $53-$94 80k $103-$166 90k $459-$650 100k $497-$732 110k $53-$94 120k $142-$231 130k $53-$94 140k $103-$166 150k $447-$507

I've remember reading in another forum that the squeek was traced to the ebrake cable (where it enters the guide). Someone else reported finding it with a plastic guide under the rear seat where the cable passes through. The fix in both cases was to use lithium grease at these points.

My daughter has a 2013 Escape. She likes it ok, no real problems, but wants to trade it on an Edge or (preferably) MKX. Great ride, congrats

Sad when you have to explain it. Grunt

Check the fuse as well.

Read "lirpa loof" backwards and associate it with the first day of April. (No one)?

Try running an audio control module (radio) self test and record any codes it displays.

Which foreign cars are you referring to? Toyota that's made in Georgetown, Kentucky, or Lafayette, Indiana, or Blue Springs, Mississippi, or Princeton, Indiana, or San Antonio, Texas, or Georgetown, Kentucky? Or Honda that's made in East Liberty, Ohio, or Greensburg, Indiana, or Lincoln, Alabama, or Marysville, Ohio? Or how about the Ford Edge, which is NOT manufactured in the US?
