Welcome!!

Got a call back from Service on Saturday. Ford Engineering contacted them after receiving pics of the wheels (a requirement of the system for a visual issue?). They are aware of the issue and do not have an answer to the problem as of yet from a design/process standpoint. They are working on a "band-aid" (my word, not theirs) as they will NOT be replacing wheels going forward but will be re-affixing the cladding to the wheel. There is not safety impact to the condition so I am to continue to drive it with the noise until they come up with the "super glue" (again me, not them) needed to fix it at which point they will issue a TSB for all to see. HUH!??!?!!? Still not sure what to do or say.... Thoughts?

21K miles on my '08. Crusin' thru drive-thru on Monday and... click, click, click... almost like a baseball card in your bicycle spokes... Took into dealer today and after about 30 minutes service guy came out to say there was a pending service bulletin for the cladding on the wheels. Had a call into Ford and asked if I could hang until they called back. No problem. He came back in about 15 minutes and said new wheels were on order and all 4 would be replaced per Ford. "Cladding" was separating from rest of rim. Anyone heard of an update in regards to the processing of the clad/wheels? Just curious as to the revision-level of the replacements.

Congrats and welcome to the forum!! Lots of great folks here with a lot of great ideas and knowledge to share!

Holy Crap! I've read this post 4 TIMES and still don't have a clue what you said! :wacko:

I love the fact there are guys like you two on here! Makes it great for non-tech guys like me!! I await anxiously for further updates as I would LOVE to have those lit up! Thanks for all you do!!

And I don't blame you! Nice view! Congrats on the new ride! Love Savannah, by the way! Down there for a few days a few months ago!

Welcome to the forum and to the Ford Family! I've owned Mustangs, F-150s and now my first Edge. No issues to date!

Welcome aboard! Just got mine about 1.5 months ago and I echo your happiness and the good words about this forum! Happy Driving!

That's correct.

Welcome!! I echo bbf2530 except for the Jersey part!

Beautiful ride you have! Welcome to the forum!

Thanks for pointing that out akirby. That is something I missed mentioning when I posted earlier about no issues in NE GA. I always run the unit on recirculate.

Welcome aboard! Very nice looking ride you have there! Whatcha got in mind for the grille?

I have intermittent problems with Sync recognzing mine. Frustrating as I can get in and out of the car a dozen times and it syncs up every time. Then on the very next entry into the car, I spend 5 minutes trying to connect it. Oh well... My phone (LG VX8700) isn't on the "list" at sync (as referenced by CorporateEdge) so I knew there might be issues. Up for new phone next year and will hopefully find one on the list that I like and go with it.

Hi Lex! I honestly came straight home due to some friends coming over for the evening. I'll try to take note this weekend and drive some roads I noticed the rolling on before. I really don't know what to expect from it but I'm not expecting a lot. Just had it in for the oil and said what the heck, give it a shot! TSB08-05-12 Pics of the shield this weekend! I must honestly say I've let it get um, dirty (the Edge that is) :blush: and need to clean it up b4 putting it b4 the camera! :shades:

Took Edge in this morning for 1st service. Sitting on about 5000 miles. Was gonna wait til 7500, but had ordered a bug shield, it was in, so took it on in. Things done and done well were - Oil Change Tire Rotation TSB for Rolling in Drive Programmed the Daytime running lights (switch in Automatic, lights on at 80%; gets dark enough - full power - very sweet!) Replaced the weather stripping in the read doors. For some reason, it was not adhered very well. Attached bug deflector. All I can think of... Great service!

I have zero issues with my A/C (flow/temp or otherwise) and I do not have the towing package...

Yeah, I'm not happy at all. Well actually I got past it a few years ago, but want to make sure I buy the right set for the Edge. If they work out well, I'm sure I'll replace the ones for the van and truck.

Hi Larry! How well have the rain deflectors held up in a year's time? Bought some for my wife's van and my F150 about 4 years ago (not from Weathertech) and within a year or 2 they were coming loose (adhesive) and have since cracked in a few places. Looking for something more durable. Thanks!

Might want to have that looked at. I feel the air from vents often to the point of having to bump the temp up to "slow the fan". Have never ran it at max setting. As mentioned (looked it up this morning), avg temp this summer has been 98. Add in humidity avg of 65% and it is hard to cool the body down. I often turn it down and or away from me as I get too cold.

Love ours too! Congrats and welcome aboard!!

I agree with Lex and Corporate and jeffreybehr... Not in Phoenix but averaging 95+ all summer and no issues except could use more adjustment.

Oops! Yep! Thanks akirby! What you said is what I meant. I'm not very savy on the electrical stuff.
