I too know this is an old thread but getting tired of replacing bulbs and sockets. I have a 2008 Edge with only 68,000 miles. We have already replaced the bulbs 3 times and the sockets 2 times. We too have been told by Ford that they have never heard of it. Isn't that amazing when so many people have had the same problem with several years of Edges. It totally is a fire hazard. Unfortunately until people die I don't believe Ford will do a recall. They are one of the last to do recalls even though people have had trouble. We too have tried different number bulbs and they have burned up along with the socket - 3057 and 4157. If anyone has a solution I would love to hear it. Thanks

Thank you Celbine for your service and stay safe. We will miss you on the forum but look forward to periodic posts on how your doing. Always in our prayers too.

Thank you for your response. Surprisingly even though the ford dealership tells you they haven't had problems with them, it arrived today. We put the new amp in and it seems to be working fine. We will be testing it before putting everything back together. It appears that the solid connection from the amp had a problem as the slightest movement of it made the amp go out. Hopefully this post will help someone else too as everyone has helped me. Again thank you for your quick response.

Sorry I reposted what I said by accident. Need some help from anybody regarding my amp. Have tackled the problem but need some help. When we went into a ford dealership they plugged in the VIN number and it came up with one number on the amp. My husband opened everything up and exposed the amp. We took the number into ford and they said that amp doesn't even show it should be in an Edge just other cars. They ordered the one that says it should have and am waiting for it. Now when you wiggle the harness from the sub that goes into the amp the base sometimes goes out. Wondering if the plug going into the amp could be bad. No help from ford unless you want to pay their high prices for diagnostic. The base comes on sometimes if I turn the radio on and off at the switch. I know their is a wealth of knowledge from people on here and would really appreciate some advice. Thanks in advance for you're help

I know this is an old post and I have even posted on it before. Still having problems where the base goes out in my 2008 Edge Subwoofer. When I turn the stereo off and on again the base will usually come back on but then will go off again. I stopped at a stereo place and they told me by turning it off and on again, it is resetting the Amp. They too said it is probably the amp but they can't check it, it would have to be done by Ford. Stopped at Ford and they told me to check it, I would probably have to pay around $50.00 for an hour of service to see what it is. With our discount I can buy the amp for $76.00. Trying to figure out if I just take a chance and buy the amp and replace it without having it checked first. Has anyone else dealt with this problem? Do you think it is very likely the amp and not the subwoofer. Only have about 28,000 on this Edge. Thanks to anyone that might have any suggestions. Really getting tired of losing the base, the stereo doesn't sound anything like it should when the base is out.

I just found this post and will enter into it even if it's a little old. I have a 2008 Edge. One rear light socket bulb burned out and upon changing it we saw that the socket had gotten hot and was discolored. The plastic on the bulb had also melted. Thought it was a freak thing until the one on the other side did the same thing. At this point all we have done is change the bulbs but is there a fix for this. When you as Ford, they just deny knowing anything about it. If you search though, I found many complaints that were filed with Ford for the same thing. When do they decide something could be a safety factor, when a car catches on fire.

Thank you, I do like it as it's different

Ok, I'll see if I can at least post one more picture showing the stitching. Hope you can get the idea from this. I wasn't able to post the back seat but I think you can get the idea. This is the 2008 black edge I posted earlier.

Cellbine - Love the pictures you posted. As promised here are some pictures I took of the red inserts in my interior. Some of the pictures off the iphone make the red look faded but it definitely isn't faded at all. Also took one to show the stitching. Having trouble loading all the pictures so I'll try in another post.

Carbon edge+ I too am glad everyone is ok. That looks like a pretty bad collision. Looks like the Edge did its job in protecting you. I have read in some Edge complaints to Ford that their airbags didn't go off in a collision. Did your go off? Keep us posted on getting it repaired. Thanks

Yes, Cellbine, I'll get some pictures of the inside this weekend to show you the red inserts on the seats. I am little surprised they only had them for a short time. I suppose when I sell it, either someone will really like it or really hate it. Anyway I'll get on those pictures. Thanks for the great comment too, my husband surprised me that day with waxing it, but I do take pride in keeping it up and have only hand washed it since day one and kept it waxed too.

I have the clear black. The interior is black leather with the red inserts and red stitching, pretty cool looking. Had to order it special as they only offered it in 2008.

I know mine is older than most of them posted as it is a 2008, but it still looks pretty good. Probably can't tell from the picture but it has silver leaf pinstriping on it. Also has the red insert in the black leather in the seats with red stitching. I believe this was the only year that had that interior. I special ordered it and still really like it. I also put after market 22 inch wheels on it.

I am having the roaring that everyone is talking about with the wheel bearings in the rear. I have a 2008 Edge with only 28,000 miles on it, very low. My 5 year warranty was up last December. I have the TSB printed regarding this and will be taking it with me to the Ford Dealership on Friday to have them listen to it. Is there anyway possible with low miles and it just expiring last December that I can get them to pay for this repair. Any idea how spendy it could get. I looked on Complaints filed with Ford and there are several regarding this issue. Thanks for any helpful answers.
