Good news! Keep us posted on the new one going forward.

Has anyone had their dealer's service shop actually be able to fix this issue? If so, what did they do?

Not sure if this will include the Edge, but I suspect it will. If you find out otherwise please let us know. http://www.autoblog.com/2015/10/29/ford-set-to-launch-huge-sale-next-week/

It would be a good idea to let your dealer know about this issue so that Ford is made aware of the problem. Hopefully then the light assembly vendor will be forced to get involved in correcting this problem. No complaint, no long lasting repair!

Hassan; Not good! Is there any way for you to find out when that vehicle was built? It sounds like a heart break for yet another new owner!

Have any idea which parameters get updated with this re-flash?

Lee; I would be interested in your thoughts comparing the 2013 vs 2015 3.5? Anything get your attention as different?

I have a bad feeling that if nothing has changed @ the vendor that builds this unit your result will be the same. It would really be helpful to know how many other owners have this issue and / or have it and don't know it yet.

He will not have wait long as the remnants of a major tropical system is headed his way ( & mine) next week.

sm; Living in Tenn. as you do I expect it won't take long for the fall rains to be "the tell" for your Edge. Hopefully your done with further issues, but if not, you have a good case for a lemon law repurchase by Ford. Look into what your state offers as lemon law protection and keep a log of dates, attempted repairs, and conversations about the issue and who said what and who did what. Hopefully all will be fine, but just in case... Be prepared, and keep us posted as to how things go. Good luck! Also please add your attempted repair to this thread: http://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/18423-post-15b21-leak-repair-follow-up-report/

I feel your pain! I had to spend $1K do accomplish the same thing on my truck. I am shooting for an April-May delivery, and with any luck I will not need to drop anymore $ into the "old warhorse" trough.

Please comment on the exterior "fit & finish" of your Edge / MKX. Any issues with the painted panels like excessive orange peel, cloudy spots, or overspray? How is your door / panel fitment? On a 1-10 scale how would you grade your new vehicle in regards to fit & finish?(1=excellent & 10= not acceptable) Please discuss your problem areas if present, and if you took it back to your dealer what were they able to do to fix your issue(s).

It might make for an interesting "seat of the pants" comparison. Run a tank of each grade and see how much difference it makes, and also to see if a difference can be detected. It also will be interesting to see if fuel econ. is affected?

Can anyone confirm that the order bank is open or will open in the near term? I just checked with my local dealer and they had not heard a thing.

I've seen the roof rails and for the life of me I can't see what they will be good for? They seem to be made of plastic and are slotted on the outside edges and don't appear to lend themselves to cross bars. Maybe I am missing something, but if not, I will need to go to aftermarket for a roof rack that will fit my needs.

sm; Thanks for your review! I want to hear some longer term reviews to see how this engine holds up before I decide. Since I will not be ordering mine until late winter, I've got some time to see how owners feel with the passage of time and mileage. Be sure to come back to this thread and update your thoughts as you put on mileage. By the way, why is your's in the shop?

Any new thoughts about 2.0 ownership? Are there any issues showing up recently? I seem to recall that a few early owners of 2015's were having issues with the pressurized air supply hose becoming blown off due to poor clamping issues. I am not certain if this was a wide spread issue or not?

Thanks for your help!

Wow! Thanks...

I drove the 2.0 Eco-4 powered Edge yesterday and was impressed with its performance. It did seem to be a bit "buzzy" when compared to the 3.5 but nothing too bad. I wondered if anyone who owns the the 2.0 has tried reg. gas in it just to judge the performance difference? I understand that the output is reduced to 220 hp +- when using reg. gas. I am now conflicted as to which powerplant I should select. I lean towards the 3.5 only because it has a proven track record, but the 2.0 Eco seem to handle the Edge's size pretty well. What factors went into your engine selection?

How exactly does it work? After engine is killed... Foot on brake @ light then just apply pressure to the gas pedal to start it? How long must your stop be before the engine is stopped?

WingNut: Can you list out the needed part numbers for the Q tower system you purchased? By the way, did you buy the optional locks for it? I am thinking they might be a worthwhile investment.

Anyone now have this feature? Like it?

My first car purchase while in the Air Force. 1969 SS396, 350hp, posi rear, rock crusher tranny with special low first gear. I wish I had it now, but those Rat motors loved oil and gasoline. No comparison to anything built today, but not a ECM, ECU, or BCM in sight! I wonder how that was possible?

Now that's funny!
