How much weight can these factory installed side rails really carry on them? Want to put a cargo box on it and not sure if they are strong enough. Thanks!

Welcome! Hope you are enjoying your MKX!

Need your help here...Does anyone have any suggestions on what is the best cargo box to fit the 2007 Edge? I have been looking at the Thule/X-Cargo ones and from what I have been told, the Ford OEM crossbars are not compatible and will be pretty muchg useless . Luckily I don't have them but was almost about to buy the Ford OEM ones before finding out this piece of information. I will need to get their crossbars, the Thule recommended ones, which will attach to the OEM siderails already on the vehicle. Any suggestions??? Thanks in advance!

Wow, really glad that you posted this topic because I have been experiencing the same thing but not at all often. The last instance was just 7 days ago after a 380 mile drive...We just pulled up to the house and needed to back into the garage, put the car in reverse, stepped on the gas and it stalled. Agreed, car must be hot to duplicate...I'll be watching for answers.

Hi There, Newbie here!!! I checked several of the catagories but could not come up with the right place to post this topic! So, I apologize in advance! :-) Quick question...Hubby and I leased the '07 Edge SEL Plus when they first came out. We did this knowing that it was a production/introduction year vehicle and might have some issues and if there was anything major we could just walk away from it. Well, in about 12 months, our lease is up and we are having a hard time deciding on if we should just keep this one or trade up to the new 2010s. The decision has pretty much been made from the standpoint that we LOVE the Edge and if we do trade up, we will probably get another one. But the thought of finally being car-payment free in a few years is also a nice thing to look forward too also. The only issues we have had with the car is: 1. the know tranny leak and had that fixed, under warranty 2. the trunk/hatch button burnt out and had to be replaced, under warranty a. when this was fixed, there is a 'brain' module that controls quite a bit for the interior and that had to be replaced too, again under warranty. 3. blown turn signal tail light, fixed ourselves (but based on some topics I have been reading (www.fordedgeforum.com/index.php?showtopic=2594) we need to relook at the harness as I do remember some discoloration) We really love everything about this vehicle, the look, the ride, the comfort, etc. and would not be in this dilemma if we were not so attached to it. Weird, huh??? OK experts...Lemme have your thoughts, opinions, recommendations, etc. on what to do next.
