I just put this protector on my 2016 Edge. It has the wrap around to the vertical portion of the bumper that I wanted, the Ford one doesn't. https://www.amazon.com/2015-2016-Ford-Bumper-Protector-Guard/dp/B018F52ZD6/ref=sr_1_3?s=automotive&ie=UTF8&qid=1470230664&sr=1-3&keywords=rear+bumper+protector+ford+edge

Is it my imagination or is there no true 'Accessory' mode in the 2016 Edge with pushbutton start. The pushbutton only has two positions - OFF or Run. In the run position, which is the only option for accessory, the ventilation system is running and you have to manually shut it off. We have had Toyota and Honda with pushbutton start, and they use a 3-position pushbutton - OFF, Run, Accessory.

The fob can drain the battery. I had that happen on my 2012 Toyota Rav4 I just replaced with the Edge. One original fob was going through batteries every two weeks. I had used Maxell bought on Amazon and thought that could be the problem. I then bought Energizer and Duracell retail at Walgreen's and the problem was the same. Switched to a fob I had bought on eBay and haven't changed the battery in months, until I got the Edge.

I picked up, last week, a 2016 SEL 2.0l in Bronze with a Dune interior. 201A package Utility package Technology package Cold Weather package Panoramic Roof 18" Polished Wheels MSRP was 41,770. I paid 39,500 after prolonged negotiation. They tried to tell me the package discounts on the window sticker came from them and I should pay the MSRP. I've gotten several compliments on the colors, both exterior and interior. I'm very happy with them. Coming from a Rav4, I have to get used to the larger size. I'm getting there. The wipers are strange, like a throwback to the 60's. I've always had parallel arm wipers on all my cars, going back over 40 years.

I know it's been awhile, but I have this coming from Amazon. It has a lip that curves over, and offers more protection than the Ford guard. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B018F52ZD6/ref=od_aui_detailpages00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Headrests on the new Edge are adjustable, I believe 4 positions, fore and aft.
