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. 

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. 

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. 

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.

Went by the dealer this morning, I was told that as long as the headlights were working, the recall did not apply to me.

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. 

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.

I hear the horn on the ST is a good bit more quiet VS the Sport. 

This is my biggest gripe with my ST. I absolutely hate that horn. 

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. 

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. 

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.

I find the fact that the owner's manual makes no mention of the compatibility, or not, of the two systems to be an oversight by the company; if there was something against using them together, surely Ford should state it.  I was "that close" to bouncing the question off of Ford Owner (& still am) when Sage started this thread, so I decided to exchange some thoughts here.  As most, or all, of you realize, Lane Keeping doesn't activate until above 40 mph, after it's been turned on, & I'd prefer to just keep it on, so it stays ready to work when I get above 40 in a non-highway situation or while I'm accelerating between 40 & cruising speed upon entering the freeway.  I saw a YouTube video about 10 days ago in which someone said that if Lane Centering isn't detecting one of the lines, then Lane Keeping will at least nudge the vehicle toward the center from the one discernible line, as a backup; I don't recall who posted that video, but I didn't give it huge credibility because I noted that the guy isn't an engineer.  Turning Lane Keeping on & off--then on again & off again--depending on the circumstances, would get tedious, so as I said, naturally the preference would be to simply keep it on & let it supplement Lane Centering as I've described, provided there isn't a conflict.

 

To reiterate, when both systems are on & I'm using Adaptive Cruise on the highway, my Lane Keeping only seems to vibrate the wheel weakly/unreliably (even with sensitivity set to high).  And, so far, I've not noticed the Lane Keeping kicking in to nudge the Edge when Lane Centering temporarily isn't detecting a line; I'll try to keep in mind to put that to the test.  Maybe I will end up configuring for vibrate-only on LK, although LK's steering torque could also be helpful if LC hiccups.

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.

As complex as Edge stock steering wheels are, with all the functions linked to them, what steering wheel mod have you done?

I just meant that when going straight down the road, my steering wheel is turned about a half inch to the left. 

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.

I had adaptive Bi-Xenon in the 2011 MKX and it worked flawlessly. I think Ford's issue with the 2019 Edge stems from the Edge being also offered for Europe with the adaptive lights since 2015 or 2016, so it might be a marketing mistake and/or build issues where Edges built for North America have hardware differences compared to those for European market.

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. 

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

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. 

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.

So an interesting thing I discovered when comparing to my 2015 Sport to the ST is that there are now TWO different lane systems: keeping, which is the button on the left hand stalk and was there on my 2015, and the new centering which is a steering wheel button. I was initially disappointed when the left hand stalk keeping button appeared to be no better than the 2015. Then I realized there was an entirely separate button for centering. 

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.

You can add heated/cooled seats icons on homescreen using Forscan. They will show left and right of the heated steering wheel icon.

 

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. 

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.
