They look nice but it's hard to compare with the Weathertech's without seeing them side by side...
Claude.

Do they have something like that for the 2011-2014 models?
Yes.

Vinyl wrap it. I'm sure you will save quite a bit going that route plus it won't look cheap!
Thanks for the suggestion…but 1st, I don't know anyone in my area doing this and 2nd, I don't want to remove the parts from the dash… and 3rd…why do you say that it would look cheap? I've done a complete kit in my '02 Thunderbird (see picture) and it looked terrific, looked original to the untrained eye!...

I'm very tempted in getting a gloss black dash kit for my '16 Titanium. I don't plan on using all the parts included in the kit, just the ones around the shifter, the small storage compartment door, heated seats and radio and heater controls and last, the touch screen surround piece. (I'm including a picture of the pieces I'm talking about below)...There is already some factory-installed gloss black pieces on the console and doors (where the switches are) but I find that the area I just described above would be a nice addition which would blend-in with the factory pieces...
What do you guys think?

I can confirm that it does wipe out all your settings.
Yes… I also did a master reset and it did wipe out all my previous settings.

... I should have added that I'm certain it's right, I read it on the Internet.
Mmmm…I'm a little confused…What exactly is "right" ?
Claude.
-
I don't believe that any personal settings are deleted, channel settinfs, etc. are all retained.
Well… I guess the best way to find out is to TRY which I definitely will. I'll let you guys know how it turns out...
Thank you,
Claude.

From Ford info on SYNC 3:
Use Recent Destinations to select from your last 25 navigation destinations.
Note: Previous destinations cannot be individually deleted from SYNC 3.
Oh s**t!…. :rant:And I suppose they call that "progress"…yeah sure...
and
Looks like someone's trying to cover their tracks!
Yeah…so what?...

For a '16 Edge, can someone please explain how to delete the addresses from the "Previous Destinations" file? I tried today again and again with no luck. In my '11 MKX, it was simple…you just went into the "previous destinations" file and besides each address there was an icon you could click to delete the addresses but I can't seem to find how to do it in my new '16 Edge.
Any help is appreciated...

My dealer told me that I might need to go online and "update" the Sync in my 2016 Edge… That's new to me…but in the real world, HOW will I do that? Any info would be appreciated...
Thanks,
Claude.

Did you buy it because you liked it or just to get comments from others? If you like it then that's all that should matter.
I bought it because I already liked the new Edge but I must admit that the color greatly influenced my choice. I agree that what really matters is that it pleases Me.
and
"Basic" colors are easier to appreciate. "Electric Spice" is NOT a basic color by far. It definitely stands out in a crowd, but at the same time, likely divides the audience.
I agree…It's one of those colors that either you like it or you don't. I do.

On the '15s, only the Sport had the Electric Spice color scheme.
Yeah but it now appears that it's available on any model…Proof is that I just saw an SEL in "Electric Spice" last week! It's also available on Escapes too. Don't know if it's available on Lincolns though...
Claude.
P.S: Right now, I'm beginning to have mixed feelings about the color… At first, I was thrilled about it but now that I've owned the vehicle for 5 months with almost no positive comment about the color, I now understand why I don't see any of them in that color : --> People don't like it, plain and simple, (even my girlfriend doesn't like it) and dealers just don't order them by fear of remaining stuck with them on their lots. At the dealer where I bought mine, I was told that it's the only Edge they've had in "Electric Spice" along with one Escape… If I knew, I would've chosen the same vehicle but finished in "Ruby Red" instead...

I'm going to have them look at the rear passenger door when go in for an oil change. It definitely is not sitting correctly, I think a lot of the noise is coming from that. And the top near the open side I can see the paint from through a crack in the door
Funny that you mention this…I've had the exact same problem with mine which the dealer fixed and it now aligns correctly with the front door. But one thing I noticed is that the rear door chrome mouldings which surround the glass doesn't align with the mouldings of the small rear quarter glass. I've looked at other Edges and found that a lot of them are like that...

I bought my 2016 Edge Titanium, "Electric Spice" with 20" wheels, Navigation, DVD players in headrests, moonroof etc...in April and I'm happy with it. The only issue I'm still having is about the Sync3 which has a hard time functioning correctly with my cell phone and the dealer wasn't able to make it work either. Other than that, I had to have the passenger side doors adjusted at the dealer 'cause they were a little uneven at the top when closed, but that is ok now. Before that, I had a "Kona Blue" 2011 Lincoln MKX which I kept for my girlfriend…She loves it.

What kind of phone?
It's a Sonim XP5520.
and
Ok, sorry, my mistake. Probably a stupid question but have you updated to your latest operating system for your sonim xp5520?
Mmmm…I've never heard of that before much less how to do it… Sorry

Settings > General > Accessibility > Incoming Calls. The choices are "Default" "Headset" and "Speaker". Set to "Speaker".
Thanks "enigma-2" for trying to help me, but the parameters on my cell phone are not like that. What puzzles me is that I can make a call using the Sync but cannot answer when I receive one… …go figure... So what I did is to simply turn the Bluetooth settings to "off" and use my phone through it's built-in speaker…too bad but I guess I'll have to live with that Sync s**t.

Is it me but I noticed that most Edges I see which are finished in "Electric Spice" color are all "Sport" models?…Mine is a '16 "Titanium" in "Electric Spice"… Is that rare or not?… Someone at my dealer told me that they received only two vehicles in that color, mine and an Escape...
Are there any other members here with a titanium in that color or am I the only one?
Claude.
-
Finally, the dealer fixed the right side doors which didn't align well…looks great now. As for my cell phone, they were able to make it work but for some unknown reason, when I receive a call, I have to hit the "privacy" button twice after answering…but at least, it works.

Thanks Joy. I'm going to try with my girlfriend's iPhone this weekend and see what happens… If it's still the same, I'll wait 'till next week to go at the dealer. I'll keep you guys posted.
About my cell phone, I know it's not an iPhone or even a "smart" phone at all but heck…it was working in my MKX!
Claude.
-
It's in privacy mode.
No it is not, I already checked...
That was my first thought as well but you would think the dealer would have noticed that (then again, I may be expecting too much of some of the dealers).
I have an appointment at the dealer next Tuesday and they said they they'd look into in again...

Hi Claude,
I'd like to help with your SYNC concerns! What kind of phone are you using? Can you explain what happens exactly when you try to pair it to SYNC?
Joy
Thank you Joy for your reply. The cell phone I'm using is a Sonim XP5520. What I don't understand is that it did work in my 2011 Lincoln MKX but not in my new Edge and the dealer, not being able to make it work simply took the easy way out saying that it was my phone which had something wrong...
The problem is that when it's paired, I can see it on the screen but if someone calls, it's the phone which rings and I cannot hear or talk unless I pick up the phone and use it normally. Does not go through the Sync.

I bought my '19 Edge this summer and absolutely love it. This is my third Edge: ('11 MKX, '16 Edge Titanium and now this one '19 Edge Titanium "Elite"). If I didn't like them, I wouldn't have bought three of them!

I want to buy some custom wheels for my new 2016 Edge Titanium and would like 22"s or maybe 24"s. I've searched all over the net for some pictures of second generation Edges with custom wheels but only found a handful of them. I know it's a matter of personal taste but I like "bling", or if you prefer chromed wheels over the current trend of black ones. Every year, I travel to South Florida and I know about several vendors in that area (I even bought a set of 22" DeCenti's for my girlfriend's 2011 MKX while down there) and I definitely plan to shop for wheels while I'm down there. Curiously, these places sell some brands I've never heard about before (some which are very nice!) and it makes me wonder why I've never seen these wheels before when doing a search on the net. Most of the time, it's the same brands which keep showing up again and again...
What would you guys do?
thanks,
Claude.

Like the title says, I'm a new member from Canada (Province of Quebec). My name is Claude and I just bought a brand new 2016 Edge Titanium in "Electric Spice" color and I've also owned a 2011 Lincoln MKX for four years and transferred it to to my girlfriend when I bought the Edge. I'm also a member on several other car-related forums ("TurboBuick.com", "Team Chevelle" and "Chevelleforum.org"). I'm a big muscle cars fan and own two, an '87 Buick Grand National which I use for cruising, shows and occasional drag racing and also a 1971 Chevelle SS for cruising and shows.
Well that's about it for now… talk to you guys soon!
