  1. So i was finally able to get it fixed after the ones i kept receiving from drivebright ended up blowing out my middle light bar. After the dealership replaced my bar and installed new OEM bulbs, i ordered these error free LED license plate bulbs from Amazon and they did the trick. Have not had any issues with them so i'd be careful with buying them from drivebright.com. The puddle lights are good though.

  2. Hey All,

    Has anyone purchased the LED puddle and license plate bulbs from drivebright.com? I had purchased the set not too long ago and the first set of license plate bulbs began to flicker. I contacted the company and they shipped me out new ones and those worked well for about 2 weeks or so and also began to flicker. Anyone run into any issues like this? It quite annoying to say the least haha. The puddle lights work fine with no issues. Thanks!

  3. Yes. on my 2015 Sport I swapped out factory 4300K to 5500K and they are much whiter without too much blue. Now if I can just get it out of the shop. 3k miles and it developed an oil pan leak and a suspension issue. It has been in the shop for 2 weeks now....Frustrating as this is my first Ford.

    Was it difficult to do the swap? Retrofit has them for a good price and have been hesitant to purchase them. Do you have to tear down the whole bumper to replace the lights, or can you just swap them right from the inside the engine bay? I was doing to purchase 5000K. Thank you for any information.

  4. I have a 2015 Edge 3.5L. We previously experienced the loss of power / stall issue (see http://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/19171-edge-loss-of-power-stalling/).Dealership had the vehicle for about a week addressing this issue and a couple of other items.

     

    On Tuesday evening this week, our Edge stalled again--the first time since the PCM flash. This time, we were driving and the vehicle stalled. We were able to stop safely, and the vehicle started again after putting it in park.

     

    I contacted the dealer the next morning. Our salesman is a long-term employee and superb. Within the hour the dealership had involved 6 people including the owner. They asked us to bring the vehicle to them. They put us in a new Edge with only 8 miles in order to drive during a holiday trip and told us they would get this problem fixed.

     

    I am really pleased with the dealership. I am also concerned about whether they or Ford can get this problem fixed.

     

    Anyone else have the PCM flash and then their Edge stall after the PCM Flash? We have also lost about 3mpg in average mileage since the PCM flash.

     

     

    My wife has the 3.5L Titanium and this has only happened once. I was hesitant to report it to the dealership as it had never happened before and was doubtful they would be able to replicate the issue. I has not happened since but it was kind of scary having the car just shut off in a flash. Luckily we were on a side street with no cars in sight. Do you think i should take her car in to have it checked?

  5. My passenger seat cools both back and bottom. The driver seat only cools the bottom. I understand the issue but it does not seem to me like a deal breaker. I have not had any other issues with the Edge and have been satisfied with it. I get no rattles anywhere and the cabin is super quiet. I will continue to look at this thread and see if there has been a remedy to the seat cooling issue. Thanks guys!

  6. Hmm .. i did not even know the back of the seats were supposed to cool too. Now that you guys mention it the back of my seats don't really cool only the bottom does. I have a Titanium. Should i take it to the deal or just wait it out? Does this mean that in the winter time the back of the seats should heat up as well ??

  7. I have V-LED LMZ LED headlights in my Mustang and they work great. Light output seems equivalent to HID and like all LEDs, they come on at full brightness instantly and they seem to have more consistent and accurate color temperature.

     

    However, they are somewhat pointless in this discussion because they're designed for halogen conversion and nobody makes them to fit an HID D3S housing.

    Oh ok I see. I actually have seen them for the D3S housing. Funny as it may seem i saw them on Alibaba.com which is why I asked if anyone had them and if they were worth getting over HID. One reason being is because the HID bulbs (at least a good name brand) for our Edge runs a little over 200 dollars. If i cannot find any other alternative I will buy them soon and see how they look. I will be doing HID change out soon as I hate the stock HIDs lol.

  8. I just traded in my 2014 Mazda 6 for a 2015 Edge Titanium 3.6L V6 AWD fully loaded. The only thing i was unable to put on it was the driver assistance package which was delayed from what i heard. Wife was asking me to get us a SUV since our family is growing. Well as they say a happy wife equals a happy life lol. Surprised her with a Oxford White Edge. She loves it. The technology in it is more than needed but figured we get it so it doesn't go out of date too fast. Thing drives soft and super quiet. We drive it everywhere. No complaints here!

  9. Ok thank you everyone for the input. I will take pictures tomorrow of the stock HID and also check to see how easy it is going to be to take out the stock ones and replace them with new ones. I am more than likely going to purchase 5000K from retrofitsource as i have purchased from them prior and their products were good. I will post pictures once i manage to do the upgrade.

  10. Yeah but the adaptive lights in the Lincolns don't compare to the ones they have overseas. And if you think about it here in the states we have to pay that premium for that technology while overseas they get it standard or for a small upgrade. And yes I have read that the reason we do not have that technology is because of our DOT regulations which are crazy outdated, some 50 years i believe. It is a shame we cannot enjoy that type of technology. This technology is sick! https://youtu.be/klkqOO7EaW0

  11. Hey everyone,

    So I just recently purchased a 2015 Edge Titanium that comes with HIDs. Now my question is: Does anyone know if the HID bulbs are easily able to be swapped out? The reason I ask is because I cannot say that I am completely content with the light output of the current factory HIDs. I am not sure what K they are but have a slight yellowish tint in them. I had the same issue and complaint when on my previous car which was a Mazda 6 GT 2014. Unfortunately on that vehicle in order for my two swap out the HID's i had to go through a lot of trouble which i chose not do. I was looking to see if maybe this car was easier to just change out the current bulb and put in a 5000K bulb instead. Thanks for any help!!
