  1. I really like the ST in this color. I actually was going back and forth between the Magnetic, and white platinum from 2 different dealerships. Both cars were optioned exactly the same, but in the end I got the better deal on the White one.
  2. Its definitely not the fuel pump. Mine does it if I open any door, or even just unlock the vehicle and not open a door. It is definitely something physically moving, like a gear engaging or solenoid engaging. I figured from the start it had to do with the AWD system that disconnects the rear drive train.
  3. Mine does this at one gas station every time. I have to hold the nozzle up so its just just hanging in the spout like you normally would. Basically it points the nozzle in the spout down more and that keeps it from shutting off. At this gas station it will kick off every few seconds even at a slow fill.
  4. So I finally had the alignment done on my ST since it came from the factory with an off-center steering wheel. Before the alignment the car always hugged the left lane. The steering wheel also was slightly turned left when going straight. Now that the steering wheel, is *almost* centered, the car now seems to want to pull closer to the right lane. I have noticed if I let it go, and it gets close to the right lane, it will center it back and then stay pretty centered. But if I keep my hands on the wheel it will constantly be pulling the wheel to the right.
  5. Ugh. wow. This is the kind of horrible customer service that gives dealers a bad name. Yes the headlights turn on. But there is a whole set of features that isn't working. They need to actually run your VIN and check for the recalls.
  6. My ST had 3 miles on it when I purchased it. It sat on the lot for 2 or 3 months before I purchased it.
  7. This is my biggest gripe with my ST. I absolutely hate that horn.
  8. You can change the input with the 4 way arrows on the right side of the steering wheel. Its not as easy as pushing one button until you get to the source you want, but is doable. When your right cluster screen is showing the current channel or song, press right, and it will give you a list of sources.

    Edge ST MPG

    I've tracked my mileage in Fuelly since purchase at 3 miles. So far my best tank was 20.05mpg. Lowest was 18.32mpg. I am currently at 2200 Miles. I have always ran Premium gas in it so far, Except for one tank I did 87 no ethanol which gave no change in MPG, but the car didn't seem as peppy on the throttle. Fuelly shows my average at 18.9 and the car shows 20.2. Normally I will reset trip A with each fillup, and its usually 1mpg higher average than what fuelly reports.
  10. It may be time to replace your battery. I have seen people on other ford forums say their cars do strange things such as random warnings and lights flashing when the voltage dips.
  11. I've had both on and like I said in my last post, going around a curve, lane centering keeps it so close to the left line, that lane keeping will kick in. Usually it will just vibrate, but at least twice I have felt it kick in and push the car away from that line. They definitely do work together. I think if they didn't work together, if you turned one on, the other would turn on off on its own.
  12. I just meant that when going straight down the road, my steering wheel is turned about a half inch to the left.
  13. I have noticed that if I go around a curve with lane centering on, it puts me very close to the left line, close enough that lane keep assist starts to vibrate the wheel. I like the lane centering, however, it does seem to want to fight me sometimes. Mine also feels like it prefers to stay very close to the left line. I also should note that my steering wheel isn't straight from the factory. When I brought this up with the dealership, they said I get one free alignment with the warranty, and that I should wait to see if it fixes itself, or gets worse. When they do that alignment, I'm going to see if they can also calibrate the lane centering, if that is an option.
  14. The system is definitely there. It's just not functioning. I have video of my headlights moving during a module test. So they do move, Just aren't getting any signal from the car to move.
  15. The auto-Leveling currently doesn't work. I think just having LED headlights will get people flashing you. I know a lot of people just say they hate anyone with those damn blue headlights
  16. I only notice the engine noise on hard acceleration. Seems to do it in regular drive and sport mode for me. There is no difference between drive and sport when engine is at idle.

    Your Price

    MSRP on mine was $53,010 After X-Plan discount and Rebates my price was $47,300 They also gave me 4k over trade value on my 2013 Fusion Titanium. After my Trade and down payment I financed $35,800 at 0% interest.
  18. Yes, lane keeping is exactly the same as its always been, except unlike my 2013 Fusion that had it, its always on by default. The Fusion you had to turn it on every time. The lane centering only works when you are using the adaptive cruise, and when its active it constantly is steering the vehicle. It seems to work pretty well so far too. It does take some getting used to as sometimes it feels like its fighting against you if you're actively steering while it is also.
  19. Guess its time to bust out forscan for this car. I do wish there was a physical button for the steering wheel though. I rarely have my screen at the home screen. I typically am at the radio screen or android auto.
  20. I just picked up a Metallic White ST with 401a, cold weather package and brake package. I did not order it, dealer had it on the lot and purchased with x-plan. Build Date looks to be around December 10th. Loving the car so far, its been a fun step up from my 2013 Fusion Ti. A few things I've noticed and wanted to add to what others have mentioned: 1. My home display on the sync3 screen shows ONLY the heated steering wheel icon, no heated/cooled seats buttons. 2. No fake engine noise. Although if I accelarate hard, even in regular D mode, the engine gets noticeably louder, and almost fake sounding. Not sure if they changed it to happen only in certain situations or if its just my imagination. 3. I haven't noticed the adaptive head lights moving while driving, but sitting in the garage, on first start they do move a little. I do have an issue with Sync3. it will not pair to any of my phones. It just tells me my phone doesn't have any sync compatible features. I can pull the battery and drain power and bring everything back on, and it will pair normally one time, and then won't pair again. I have a appointment with the dealer to work on this Next week, but just wondering if anyone had dealt with this on any other vehicles.
