  1. Most of the problems I had with my Edge is because of the dealership's fault. I guess Ford or the dealership should spend more time in training their staff in terms of repairing and taking care of the car but given that the 2015 Edge is in its first year, I guess it is understandable.

     

    While most of the features that Ford has in their vehicles are not that "polished", i.e. MyFordTouch (laggy), it still holds the edge it terms of its "richness" and implementation, i.e. Lane Keeping Assist (sensitivity can be customized), Multi-function Instrument Panel (feature-rich), Sync 3 (intuitive), and the blind spot monitor (no beeps/sound)

  2. FWIW, the A-Pillar leak is the only one factory problem I had with my 2015 Edge Titanium 3.5 V6 301A (built Apr). Other problems I encountered were because of the service personnel's fault (dents & scratches after that A-Pillar fix).

     

    One thing I have to nitpick with the Edge as a whole is the 6-speed tranny. But I guess I'd rather have a traditional auto tranny than a CVT.

  3. It seems Flood Ford is for US residents only. Here in Regina, SK Canada, I was offered with the Tricore Tri-Care EW but declined it when I saw that the warranty coverage lessens over time (not bumper-to-bumper after 3 years).

     

    There was one time though when a dealer said to my friend they can't remove the ESP because the bank where he was about to loan wants to protect the vehicle. I don't know for sure if it is true or the dealer just wants to pull more money out of my friend's pocket.

  4.  

    Black because my carpet is black. I have never been a fan of how WeatherTech's gray or tan match the applicable carpet colors. It looks off for obvious reasons. This is why I always buy black carpeted cars because I always put in WeatherTech liners.

     

    The price tag is not easy to swallow. But if you want your carpet to look new, buy them. In the winter they are awesome because you won't have salt/snow on your carpets. When dirty just rinse off or scrub with a scrub brush and a little soap. Dry in sun. Good as new.

     

    Yup, makes sense. FWIW, I'm kind of meticulous with regards to the carpet because of leaking freaking thing so yeah, I guess I just need a nudge and I'll cave in.

     

    The only thing I'm concerned with now is if slides around. I have no problem with the driver's side because of the grommets but for the passenger's side and the rear one, I'm not quite sold on it yet.

  5. Just updated mine, took about 35 mins. All seems back to default setting, wallpapers saved before are gone. No problems on other settings such as Ambient Lighting and the usual modes.

     

    With regards to the new features, Siri Eyes works well, it's just that her/his voice sounds like in a box/mono compared to the built-in voice prompt of MFT.

     

    On the phone's ease of bluetooth reconnection, yes, it does connect to your phone faster and easier. I had this problem before the update wherein I seldom forget to turn on the bluetooth on my phone before starting the vehicle and turning on MFT. Even after turning the bluetooth on on my phone while MFT is running and on the first quadrant it says connecting to phone, it can't connect automatically unless you go to the connect phone menu, select the phone, and tap connect. Now it just automatically connects to your phone without going to that said menu. Overall, pleased with the update, although of course it could've been better if it is Sync 3 with its much better interface and operability. But hey, at least they didn't forget us MFT users.

  6. I used to work at a auto shop before and we usually drain the oil first before replacing the filter but due to the placement or orientation of the filter on the 15 Edge, I guess it doesn't matter which goes first. Any automotive expert here to confirm?

     

    With regards to the oil filter being accessible from the top, I prefer it to be that way rather than from the bottom, easier to remove and install.

  7. Hi guys, I am now part of the 2015 Great Lakes Ford Edge Owners group.

     

    Bought this 2015 Edge Titanium last May, just 1.5k kms on the odometer. Didn't notice the "wetness" of the floor on the drivers side until last week when I tried to clean the rubber mats. Brought it down this morning at our dealer here in Regina, SK and just this noon, after they did the inspection for the FSA, they found out that indeed water is leaking from the A pillar (drivers side). Now they are providing me a rental because they need to do a lot of stuff on the car (3 days of drying it out, didn't say the number of days for them to check the damage). Hopefully they will provide a rental vehicle comparable to my car.

     

    Didn't expect the service to be this fast (I heard a lot of complaints with regards to the service of the dealer) but I guess contacting the Ford rep we have here in the forum did help because Ford itself made arrangements with the dealer themselves. So I guess my advice to you if you find yours leaking, contact first our Ford rep here (one for US, one for Canada) and provide your VIN before bringing it down to the dealership.

     

    Edit: Build date: 26 March 2015.

  8. Anyone else had this issue? Tried using the factory access code indicated on the card and it didn't work so I brought my 15 Edge Titanium to the dealer for service. At first they thought that the keypad has a hardware issue but after the service, they found out that the code indicated on the card doesn't match the specific factory access code for my Edge and they've just given me the correct code on the Service Report. Just sounds fishy to me.

  9. Hi all. New happy owner of a 2015 Ford Edge Titanium in Magnetic Metallic exterior and Ceramic interior (package 301A, 3.5L V6 AWD). Wanted to get the SEL at first, but when I test drove the Titanium, I immediately fell in love with it.

     

    Wanted the 180-degree front cam but it was with the 302A package which was already too steep for me. I also wanted the 2.0L Ecoboost but what the dealer had at the time was only the 3.5L V6.
