To quote MOFSTEEL - "How about some pics?"

Here's the NY Lemon Law : The New York Lemon Law applies to new cars, both purchased and leased, which suffer a nonconformity; a defect or condition, which substantially impairs the use, value or safety; that has been addressed a substantial number of times (normally 3-4) by an authorized manufacturer's dealership. This nonconformity must first occur within the first 24 months or 18,000 miles, whichever comes first. The New York Lemon Law also applies to vehicles that are in the shop for repair thirty (30) or more calendar days during the first year. You obviously have a case. I have had two cars lemon lawed, a Dodge Durango and a Mazda CX-7. The Dodge was a quick process, two months from start of process to having a check in my hand. Mazda quickly agreed to buy my car back, but took nine months to finally pay up. Hopefully Ford will be a quick turnaround for you. Good luck.

Had mine in the dealership for this. They got on a "hot line" directly with Ford and diagnosed as a faulty sensor in the transmission. They opened up the trans., put in new sensor, new trans. fluid and it's good as new. MPG are way up after the new part also. I don't have the repair order with me so I can't give you the part #, but if you need it I can look it up when I get home tonight. Good luck!

So does a bad PTU seal leak trans fluid or a different fluid? These posts suggest that trans fluid can leak from a faulty PTU seal but I was under the impression that the PTU was a sealed unit with a different fluid. Anyone know?

Well - My wife HAD a Mazda CX-7 which Mazda bought back from us(with attorney influence), because it was a certified POS. Anything and everything that could go wrong in that car did. Just pointing out that every manufacturer can have it's problems. Her Edge fit and finish is fine.

Agree - definitely pink.

I've owned two GM's, one was a bigger POS than the other. BTW, had the Edge out Sunday morning and hit some black ice on a curve, car straightened itself out beautifully. BMW coming the opposite direction was at an absolute crawl just trying to get through the curve.

Raised mine also after the same experience. Passenger side light was extremely low!

Saw a new SRX in a parking lot and that was the first thing I said - very close to the Edge.

Bummer- I have it on three of my cars and works fine on all of them.

After you hit OK, you have to press the up/down arrows that are next to the CD slot until you see "SAVE SONG" in the menu screen. Now press OK again and the song that is currently being played will be put into memory. When that song is played again on any satellite station you will get an audible beep and "SONG ALERT" will be in the menu screen. Press OK and it will take you to the station playing that song. You can save up to twenty songs. Page 33 in Owners Manual.

I don't know what type of Michelins he put on, but at $100 each you shouldn't feel so bad, you got a great deal. Cheapest Michelin on Tire Rack in that size is $168 and that doesn't include mounting and balancing. Congrats!

You didn't want to use your spare tire?

See my post here. Have not brought it into dealer yet. http://www.fordedgeforum.com/index.php?sho...amp;#entry32533

'09 Edge, less than 1,000 miles, second time it has done this - stopped at a red light facing uphill, fairly steep. Light changes, step on gas, loud clunk from trans, trans won't engage. Rev the gas like crazy, then trans engages and off we go. Other than these two incidents car rides like a dream, any clues? Obviously bringing it into dealer but would like some input. Thanks.

It's normal. It will display song names for MP3's and Sirius if you press the Text/Scan button.

It's not going to give you all the info you are looking for, but you can put your Vin # here and it will give you some info. Looks like your's is already built as they are showing a production sequence number. https://www.fleet.ford.com/maintenance/vin_tools/default.asp Good luck with your new ride, we are loving ours!

No, I know I have the kill switch. I have two connecters, the OBD 2 port to the right which is tucked up in the dash, and the kill switch to the left which is screwed to the bottom of the dash.

Actually, we're pretty sure it's a kill switch. Big discussion over in the Welcome Forum. See New guy in it for the knowledge-base.

OMG, No, no, no,no. When did I say I was from Canada? This is not a Canadian thing! I am in NJ. Please read all posts before jumping to conclusions. All I said was kill switches are common in Canada.

I have the kill switch in my 2009 edge, so believe me, I know what it looks like. I think what we are all trying to find out here is why so many Edge's have them installed, and yes, why there is no mention of them in the Owner's Manual. Like I said in an earlier post, they are very common in Canada, where the Edge is assembled. Do a search for used Edges from Canadian Ford dealerships and you will see "Kill Switch" listed as an option more often than not.

Have to disagree. The drawing clearly shows the wire tail connected to the kill switch. The OBD-II port is tucked up in the dash with no visible wire hanging.

Just an FYI - noticed in the Edge 2009 Owners Manual - page 222 has a drawing of the parking brake location - the kill switch is also in the drawing.

igciting - yes, the plug on the left is the one we are talking about. I doubt you will see it coiled up, they mount these so you can easily insert or take out the key.
