Found out the problem the hard way. Apparently on the EDGE the sliders on the calipers where the pads attach have to be lubed every 5000 miles. If they are not they begin to stick and it puts added wear on the pads and the rotors. Mine was doing this and this maintenance was never brought up to me or is it on the maintenance schedule. At 19/K I got a grinding sound. I took it in and the backside pads were worn off and messed up the rotors. No warning the pads were bad, drove it one day it was fine. The next day got the grinding sound and took it in the following day. This is when I learned about the lube on the sliders. Thye also do not stock rotors for this, so it took 2 days to locate them along with the pads. Repair cost: $525.00. My other vehicle gets 25K - 30K or more off a set of pads. 20K or less is what they say for the Edge. Anyone else have any brake issues witht his vehicle. Mine is a 2007, had it 1 year now.
