  1. Took delivery of my SEL January 27, totally dissapointed with the workmanship. After I drove it home, found a couple of major paint defects and broken sun visor clip. Trip back to the dealership, work order open and since been parked in the garage. Scheduled to go in tomorrow to the bodyshop for repairs. While prepping the car today, found another set of paint defects. Total to date is 14 paint defects. Pictures attached of the main ones:

    Surprising how all of these defects passed quality assurance at the factory and pre-delivery inspection at the dealership.Makes me almost regret trading in my 2013 EDGE

     

    That sucks, is it 2016 model?

  2. I'm planning to buy Edge 2016 Titanium I have read a lot about the PTU leak and now I'm scared.

     

    I really want AWD model because my previous (current) car Subaru Legacy AWD, and I so used to AWD style of driving.

     

    Do you think they solved the problem in 2016? Or should I buy just extended warrant so dealer will be taking care of all those kidna leaks during 7 years?

  3. Thank you for your replies! I think "Titanium" probably would be my choice.

     

    Another thing is, I've read a lot about PU leakage. Do you think AWD worth it? Have you really ever noticed the difference AWD vs FWD?

     

    I was thinking maybe I should pass on AWD and avoid PU leakage problem completely..

  4. Hello there,

    I'm interested in buying Ford Edge 2016, and I have couple of questions.

    1) Does this car have good noise isolation? From 1 to 10 how do you find it noisy compared to your previous vehicles?

    2) What trim do you think worth its money? Currently, I'm leaning more towards "SEL"

    3) What tires do you suggest? 18,19 or 20". I find 19" not very popular and see their prices usually highest.

    Thanks!
