Exact, remove the bench, unbolt the 2 bolt you see, flip down the rear rest, unbolt the 2 other bolt, move up the rear rest and put the foam under the metal bracket between the bracket (black) ans the tole (white).
-
16mm / 4 bolts with a rench

I did it during the week-end and...it's FIX!!
I use foam used under Wood floor.

I think that this is a normal design tolerance found in most any car; from the least expensive to the most expensive. It's probably accountable to being able to squeeze everything into the space available. From a marketing perspective, the layout of the instrument cluster has a greater first impression than a the steering wheel being off by an inch or so. Ever notice that the peddles are not standardized either?
The peddles are correct BUT...the footrest is too thick for nothing!! It's annoying...Have to rest my left feet on the ground!
If I rest my feet on the footrest...after 5-10 minutes, I realize I'm pushing with my left feet (because my left knee is 2 inch higher than my right knee (footrest too thick)) on the floor and creating a back pain.
And you??
-
So foam between the bracket and body?
Exact! It's the next thing i'm gonna try
-
It's not the problem. The dealer remove the nut and tightened it down correctly.
I'm gonna put a layer of foam between the parts and try it again on the road during the week-end

After a couple month, I sat in an another Edge Sport, Explorer 2016, Taurus 2016, Escape 2016 and every car had a little off steering wheel... I think it's for a proportional space between the door/seat on the driver side and door/seat on the passenger.

FOUND!!
Under the bench of the rear seat, passenger side, left bracket who fix the rest on the floor

Frank, just want to confirm that your experience was with a 2015 model, correct? Also, I have heated seats, so there must be some electrical leads running into the seat bottoms. Did you deal with these connections when you removed the seat bottoms? Thanks.
Yes, 2015 Sport awd
There's only 1 wire on the driver side under the bench. Easily disconnectable.

I just want my car back so I can get the process moving on having it declared a lemon. Ford says I'm not eligible for a rental vehicle but fortunately my dealer has given me one on their dime. They've been great to work with but I want this resolved sooner rather than later.
Primo: GO with the lemon law!!
Second: "you're not eligible for a rental...WTF are they serious!?! After 10 days !?!

Finally, having the work done on my Edge.
1- They change both rail for the pano roof ("toc" while opening gone...) SOLVE
2- Rattle under the bench of the rear seat... After searching...didn't found something wrong !!?!?! NOT SOLVE
3- Weird sound over my head (roof? headliner?) while the body structure are under light torsion... NOT SOLVE
For #2... I'm testing something else tomorrow
For #3... I do not find where (exactly) the sound is coming....

Thank!! I'll try tomorrow

I was able to remove mine quickly and easily.
Push the front clip (under the bench/front side where the legs rest) on each side.
Push the bench (toward the back rest as much as you can) and pull out the rear of the bench (each side separately).
I don't ok if it' clear (I'm a french guy)...

This one? (Over my head...driver side...near of the B pillar)

Take a look hereIt sounded like it was from under the car. I couldn't tell if it was from the front or the back because I thought I heard it from both. My guess is it was the gas because we had a quarter of a tank.
-
From inside or outside of the vehicle?
From the front, middle, rear?
Over your head...under your head?
Record the sound et post it on youtube with the link
-
I think I'm hearing the backseat rattle on mine now. Any updates?
I'm dropping the Edge to my dealer Monday morning (October 5) to fix (I wish) all the trouble...
-
I got a squeaking noise coming from insude the headliner driver side near the door. Sounds like two pieces of plastic or hard rubber rubbing each other. Dealer found nothing, of course. No biggie, just annoying when the music's off. Also the Vista glass in the rear makes a creak or snapping sound whenever the body flexes (i drive up and down ramps alot since i live in a condo with 3 levels of underground parking i need to drive down/up. If it weren't for these annoyances, the car would have been perfect ... so far.
Same thing here about: "Vista glass in the rear makes a creak or snapping sound whenever the body flexes" ... !?$@#%

THATS THE FUCKIN SOUND!
My dealer took a look one month ago...They didn't find nothing.
I have 3 annoying rattle...
The back seat!!!
From the top near of B pillar https://youtu.be/i9LM1kwmJtA
During pano roof opening https://youtu.be/JNCl9w7ng4Y
And...since 1 month, at low speed, the pano roof make noise when the surface are not flat (the gap between the street and the sidewalk)...
-
So I've had a rattle for the past month that I don't think anyone has described. This rattle is coming from the back seat i think sounds like from the passenger side. Sounds kinda like a sharp buzzing sound when i go over a lot of vibrations on a road esp the bumps before tolls on the highway. Anyone have an idea what this is?
THAT fucking sound?
Coming from the back seat/passenger side...
-
-
Or it is the plastic cover under the car that the rest of us fixed.
Nope, already fixed since day 1. It's clearly the back rest of the rear passenger seat (right side)
-
took it by the ford garage for the recall told them about it said they didn't have time to mess with it didn't suggest setting a time when they did have time
WTF...your dealer is a idiot!
The noise come from the back rest of the back seat (passenger side) for sure. To test it...fold the split 40 (right side) of your back rest. While driving over 60 and hearing noise...push lateraly (toward the door) on the back rest and the noise is suppose to disappear...
Try it and give me a feed back.
PS: the dealer haven't fix my problem yet. They tried but...they failed.
