  1. I have a 4 year lease on a 2013 Edge and today I was told that the transfer case needs to be replaced by my local transmission shop. They told me the design of the PTU is flawed as it doesn't have a plug but rather a vent. The vent is next to the exhaust so when you travel on the highway and the exhaust heats up it cooks the PTU. I'm not a mechanic but that makes sense to me and the bigger question is why isn't Ford doing anything about this problem. Local tranny shop told me that this is a common problem with the Edge. I still have 2 years left on my lease and I don't want to have to fork out another $1800 to replace it again before the lease is up. I do alot of highway driving so I am over the 100k warranty and must pay out of pocket. When I talked to my Ford dealer they said they have never heard of this being a problem with the Edge. Any input would be appreciated.
