  1. I've narrowed it down so I can reproduce it, and I'm going to take it to a dealer when I have time. It seems to be electrical, or the AMP. It cuts out completely randomly while I'm driving, but oddly every time I open the power hatch it does it as well. Only for a second or so. Maybe it's not getting enough power?
  2. I'm having some issues with my woofer. I had it replaced under warranty a few months ago because it was rattling. Now, and for the past few months, whenever I listen to music at about 30% volume while driving, the subwoofer will cut out for about two seconds, then come back to life again. It's rather annoying, especially seeing as I listen to fairly bassy music. The only time I was able to reproduce it (with the vehicle parked, I opened the power hatch) but since has not done it. I took it to the dealer when that happened and "everyone was on lunch" so they could not look at it. I have never had this issue before regardless of volume (although I will mention turning the volume down doesn't necessarily prevent it), and it is one that is extremely difficult to reproduce for the dealer. Anyone have any suggestions on what I might try or what it might be? Thanks in advance for any reply!
  3. I had a rather terrifying experience with my Edge and snow. I live in Saskatchewan, Canada, and about a month ago we got a very nasty snow storm. Now generally, to get home from the south end of the city i take a back grid road because it's much faster. Generally it is plowed, and even if it isn't the edge has no problems tackling a couple cm of snow. Well, I was driving down the road and notice the train ahead was stopped on the tracks not moving. So I figured I would go down the side road, and take the next road up to beat the train. I pulled up to the road, and was completely unplowed. Someone had already driven through it, and it looked like it was about 2-3 cm deep. So I went for it... well I was wrong. Turns out their 16" deep tracks and had been mostly filled with snow, and I was trying to plow through it in my Edge. Turned the traction control off, foot to the floor, and somehow I made it all the way to the train tracks. I was in the middle of nowhere, so calling for help would've been impossible. Of course, I get to the top of the little incline where the tracks are, and see that there is no road afterwards, just snow. Didn't want to risk it, so i turned around and gunned it back through my tracks, and made it all the way back. I couldn't believe that my edge had just done that, as i'm sure some trucks would've gotten stuck! As I finally hit the gravel on the road again, I noticed a tiny little "Road Closed" sign, half covered with snow. An experience for sure.
  4. Same here, got mine just outside of Regina, in Weyburn actually for $36k. Red 08' Limited AWD
  5. The aluminum finish on my centre console is dented, due to a friend fumbling their cellphone and essentially throwing it at the dash. What can I do about this? Can I order a replacement? Can I get a replacement at a lower cost from somewhere besides ford, as I'm sure they would be happy to overcharge me for it.
  6. As far as I know, that rattling seat is actually a part of the vista roof. My seat "wobbles" but doesn't rattle.
