Hey all, glad to find the forums!
I've got a 2011 Edge, and as much as I've wanted to love it, I've run into issues I've never encountered with any previous car.
This is a roughly five-year-old car, and within those five years I've already had most of the electronics fail:
The side sensors have failed and needed replacement.
The front sensor, and all of the cruise-control functions associated with it, has failed and needed replacement.
One of the rear backup sensors has failed and needed replacement.
The main cabin panel, controlling the audio, menus, and climate control, has needed complete replacement.
Last month, the back-up camera itself failed.
This has been five years of intermittent system failure, notwithstanding all of the design flaws in the onboard Microsoft Sync system, probably well-documented somewhere within the forums here.
Other than to vent my bewildered frustration with this five-year-old car, I'm also here to find out if others have had such a conspicuously poor experience with the Ford Edge. The basic drive train and brakes have been reliable enough, and the electrical system itself has held up (again, this is not an old car by any means). I realized the Sync system was crazy-bad from the first weeks I owned the car. But when the electronic features began to fail outright, again and again, I've given up loving and defending the car.
Anyone else?
