Question? Does anyone know exactly how to adjust the headlights on an 07 SEL? My right headlight is a lot lower then my right and is quite annoying. It looks like there is an adjuster on top of the assembly, uses an allen wrench, but headlight does not move when turning in either direction. I took it to the dealership and they said they adjusted it, but still way off, a little more then before. As far as I can tell both headlights are positioned exactly the same, meaning gaps match from all angles. Any ideas on how to get them to match?

Well I took mine in to the Ford dealership yesterday, 2007 Edge SEL with 26k miles and they refuse to do it under warranty, they said it is only covered under the 12 month/12k mile provisional warranty. You got lucky getting a dealership that repaired it under warranty.

Thanks for the reply, I guess the previous owner did not do much maintenance. The only reason why I asked is that it is within the alignment specs, tires are fine. The TSB specifically states that the strut plates be rotated 180 degrees (and replace the lock bolts) to fix it because of improper installation, and that it is done only if the vehicle checks out perfectly per the alignment check (which it did). I get what your saying and know it is too late to get it fixed under warranty. Its just depressing that I have purchased a vehicle 2 weeks ago and have to pay 200 dollars already to get it driving like it should. I got it from a Mercury dealership and didn't get a driveability warranty, just the remainder of the factory warranty.

You would think that if it is a known problem for some Edges from the factory, that it would be covered under the full factory warranty, and not the provisional warranty. I guess not...

I recently bought a used 2007 Ford Edge SEL and noticed that it has a hard pull to the right. An alignment was done and tire pressure is the same on all 4 tires and it still pulls to the right. I went to the dealership with the TSB I found here that addresses the Pull/Drift to the right and was told I would have to pay ($200) to have it fixed as it was not covered under the Bumper to Bumper Warranty. They said that this work is only covered under the provisional warranty of 12 month 12k miles. My question is why would this not be covered if it is a known issue from factory? Their answer to this was "this type of work is considered part of an alignment and only covered for 12 month 12k miles". SO my next question is if this is covered under an alignment, can I pay for the alignment and they will fix it then for the cost of an alignment, the answer was no. So if anyone who has had this problem or has a suggestion please reply.
