  1. I had a 2015 Titanium AWD with the 3.5 V6. I drove it for 2 years and had no problems. If I recall, one of the problems with the early builds was with a water leak that I believe was in the drivers side A pillar. As I said, I had no problems with mine although I did not put a lot of miles on it.
  2. According to the recall notice that I received only the front hoses were to be replaced. Mine were done last week. The repair order indicates that 2 hoses and 4 washers were replaced as per the instructions for recall 20S42.
  3. Still waiting for Ford to say that parts are in stock for my 2017 Sport. Supposedly the were to be in during the first quarter as per Ford's letter of September 2020.
  4. No. I do not have pics of the old stuff. Most of those older units were before everyone had a camera in their pocket. As you might guess, I am on the downhill side of 80 and all I did was drive them hard.

  6. I can't help you with your problem as my hatch is powered. I can comment on the lack of response to your post. I visit this site frequently, of late daily, and have noted what seems to be a drop off of participation over the years. It may be that other forums or social media are better attended.
  7. I believe that the lemon laws are specific state by state. I had Ford buy back a 2006 Lincoln LS in California after about 40 days in the shop trying to fix some electrical problems. The process included arbitration which was accomplished in large part through a telephone conference. All in all a fairly easy and straight forward process.
  8. Thanks for your continuing efforts. It didn't take long to realize how much checking in daily had become a part of my life. Thanks again, Martin
  9. When the lease on my 2017 Sport is up I will be looking at a Lincoln Nautilus. At today's prices, a Select AWD with 2.7L and most of the options (no BAMR) would come in at an MSRP of about 50K.
  10. It may be that had you turned the ignition off and opened the door you may have had a different outcome. I believe that much of the center stack remains powered for some time, maybe 10 minutes after the ignition is turned off or until the door is opened.
  11. Akirby, It is interesting that my wife's 2018 Honda CR-V with Sirius XM has never displayed the update message in almost 6 months of use. The problem with the Sirius XM in my Edge did not manifest itself until after 6 or more months of service. On one occasion the message read something like "need to validate unit" or something to that effect. The failure of the phone to be recognized started about the same time.
  12. The display in my 2017 Sport frequently has the message "Sirius XM Updating". This occurs almost daily. Occasionally the phone will not attach. Also, the screen goes blank now and again. Sometimes it fires back up on the previous screen, some times I get the Blue Oval. My dealer had it for a day and claimed to have updated something but the issue with the Sirius and the phone persist. Any thoughts on the matter?
  13. Welcome aboard. You will find a lot of good information here.
  14. I just saw this post and thought that I would check my 17 Sport. It too has the small (approximately 1") sections of weather stripping removed. I say removed because it looks as though the material was removed after the weather stripping was installed. Possibly done with a razor knife. On mine, it would appear as though the paint is scarred on what would be the lower edge of the gap.
  15. Davidsbrenner1, sure would like to hear how this is resolved.
  16. The date in the lower center box of the Window Sticker of my 2017 Edge Sport is 04 26 17. The vehicle has a build date on 05 05 2017. This is consistent with the timing on the build of my 2015 as well. It was built about 1 week after the date on the sticker. I believe that the date on the sticker is the date that the job is sent to the to the production line.
  17. It would be my next ride if the 2.7 was an option.
  18. I agree with Burrcold. I had a 2015 that had none of the reported problems but still would advise to go with a 16 or 17. I now have a 17 Sport and the Sync 3 is quite an improvement.
  19. I believe that some of these features are not functional until a programmed speed is met. As akirby suggested the manual can be enlightening but I think that the lane keeping feature does not kick in until approximately 40 mph.
  20. The fob for my 2017 Edge Sport drops the front windows only.
  21. I also dislike the suede inserts and find them somewhat grabby. I agree with your observations.I had a 2015 Titanium and now have a 2017 Sport. I prefer the all leather seating surfaces of the Titanium but wanted the additional HP and Torque that were provided by the Sport so I took a chance on the seats.. I do not think that I will pursue a remedy, but hope that the 2019 is optioned differently.
  22. I have a 2017 Sport. When I press the start button, whether I am starting the car or just accessing the accessories, I get 4 sets of 3 chimes. Just seems like a friendly greeting to me.
  23. I have a 2017 Edge Sport with the adaptive steering and have not experienced any abnormalities at any speed.
  24. I had a 2015 Titanium V6 AWD with 19" wheels and now I have a 2017 Sport AWD with 20" wheels. Between the change in wheel size and the sport suspension I notice a considerably stiffer ride. Were it an option on the Sport, I think that I would opt for the smaller wheels with a taller tire sidewall.
  25. The 2016 is on the same platform as the 2015. The change in the platform was from 2014 to 2015.
