WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted August 31, 2016 Report Share Posted August 31, 2016 Welcome to the the Edge/MKX community, Davor! HID upgrades are a hot potato, but at least you have projector halogens to begin with, not reflectors. DriveBright.com is one of the sponsors of this forum, and their products are quite good, and worth a look at. Also TheRetroFitSource, whether just switching to HID kit or doing a true HID projector upgrade. There ARE LED options for projector housings you can look at from vLEDs.com. The main drawback so far with LEDs is the nearby foreground illumination is better than the distance illumination. Here is a list of various HOW TO's that may help you get started in your quest: http://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/12565-how-tos-powertrain-electronics-body-more/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Denise Ferland Edwards Posted September 2, 2016 Report Share Posted September 2, 2016 Hi, I'm Denise I have a 2014 Edge Limited purchased in May with 6,600 miles on it. Since that time we have had several issues with the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC). After several calls to the dealership they finally ordered a new cruise control module. It worked fine for about a month or so and it began shutting off stating "Sensor Blocked". If you stop, shut the car off and restart it's fine. I have begun to keep notes on when this happens so I can take it to the dealership again. I've always been a Chevy person and decided I'd give Ford a try. Right now, I'm feeling it has been a mistake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
