  • Great Car, But Has Some Faults - 2011 Ford Edge
    By -

    We got our 2011 Ford Edge SEL in Sept. We love the extra interia room, comfort and performance. The gas mileage is not up to what Ford claims. Ford says, 19/27, dont believe it. Unless you are very, very concious about your driving habits, you are not going to get what is claimed. I dont have a heavy foot and were getting 12. We have 1K miles and so far, the Edge came with the rear window washer broke. Then the high beams/low beams now make a clunking noise and both side view mirrors now grin. The radio sync does not switch to the correct station with voice. Also, why did Ford place the indside door handle so close to the hinge side it makes it difficult to close the door.

  • 2011 Ford Edge is bouncy - 2011 Ford Edge

    Have only had my Edge since Sept. When I test drove it the ride seemed good. Now that I bought it and driving it around town, the ride is very bouncy - disappointed in Ford. Maybe they need to change the suspension to be a little bit more firm. The Edge bounces too much on uneven pavement. Used to driving cars with a firmer ride. This is my first Crossover/SUV vehicle and think I made a mistake. So far no problems with the MyFordTouch but it is a little distracting and Ford supposedly has an upgrade for the software. I dont have any problems with the headrests hitting the back of my head. Very quiet ride. Overall nice SUV.

  • DO NOT BUY THE CAR WITH THE SYNC SYSTEM - 2011 Ford Edge
    By -

    I purchased a 2011 Ford Edge with the Sync system. The system does not work Ford is covering up the problem in all of the Edges and Explorers The dealerships are unable to fix the system My car is my office the whole system does not work can not recieve or talk on the phone Radio some times goes out System re boots on its own If you use your car as your mobile office do not buy I have an internal Ford e mail stating system does not work and supposedly fix is coming in Jan Feb . I bought an American car to support our country. They have not lived up to the problem in their customer service divsion and have not come out publically and admitted they have a problem Maybe they should follow

  • Ford Service is a Joke - 2011 Ford Edge
    By -

    We purchased our Edge SE 4 weeks ago and have put 1K miles on it. I switched the headlights to "auto" and the first time it activated the driver side low beam popped. I brought the Edge into the dealer. Going on day 3 and they still have not been able to locate the bulb. They gave me a Nissan Altima as rental replacement as they are keeping my vehicle until its repaired - for a headlight bulb.

  • Love the car hate the problems. - 2011 Ford Edge

    Several issues with this vehicle. 1. Mytouch sporadically connects my Verizon Droid X phone. 2. Transmission jerks when accelerating at slow speeds. 3. "No Key Detected" warning on numerous occasions. 4. Navigation wont recognize streets that have been around for years. 5. Voice Recognition never works right. Love the car and all the features, just wished everything worked like it should.

  • Disappointed - 2011 Ford Edge
    By -

    So very, very disappointed. Ive only had my 2011 Edge a few weeks, but the gas mileage is terrible. While mostly highway miles, Im barely getting an average of 16 mpg. If this continues, the 19/27 mpg as stated by Ford is a gross misrepresentation. While running errands today, I got 11mpg (50/50 highway miles). I feel mislead and deceived.

  • Couldnt be more satisfied. My EDGE is like a family member. - 2011 Ford Edge

    Its only been 8 months since I drove it off the lot and said to my wife ..."Did I really pay that much fir a Ford !!?" Now I am constantly surprised that I was able to get all these features, and this ride for such a low price. Ive owned 2 Accords, a Chrysler Town and Country Limited Van, an RX7, and before that a Chrysler 5th Avenue, and a Mercury Marquis Broughm. They all had their good points ... but none has fit me so well as this Edge. Decent mileage (19.5 city), comfort, all the pickup I need, and easy on the eyes. Im so sold on it, I should probably quit my job and apply at the local dealers to sell Edges.

  • Comfortable & solid, but MyFordTouch needs work - 2011 Ford Edge
    By -

    Ive had the Edge Limited for a few weeks now and am averaging almost 20 mpg in mostly city driving. Wanted the Ecoboost but it wasnt out yet. Very comfortable interior, love the huge sunroof, like the keyless entry and pushbutton start. Touchscreen could be more responsive and better designed. The lag in response makes typing addresses in navigation a chore (it didnt have my POI in the database), and voice commands takes getting used to. Some adjustments require navigating too many screens it wouldnt be so bad if touchscreen were more responsive. Once Ford works out the bugs, the Edge will be almost perfect.

  • Ford Edge Sport - 2011 Ford Edge

    Forget going to the grocery store in a hurry. You will get quizzed on what you are driving. It goes across all age groups and even just driving around its a head turner too. We live in X5 and Range Rover Land and for the money there is no comparison. We drove them all including Lexus and Audi and Lincoln too but if aggressive style and value is your deal then this is the vehicle for you. This Edge is fully loaded and its like toy time for adults. Even our teenagers and their friends have a blast inside. Mytouch and Sync require a learning curve and there is an art to the touch screen too but once mastered its powerful stuff. Love the reverse camera and killer sunroof too.

  • This thing is falling apart ( - 2011 Ford Edge

    well we bought our edge 4 months ago the sync system has failed 4 times and it runs so slow half the time when you hit a button you have to wait 45sec till it response, its kinda of dangerous because you keep looking and waiting for something to happen. and the power lift gate stoped working and the dealer said its not covered under warrenty because it just needs to be reprogramed. that was $110 for nothing. it shouldnt lose its programing [violative content deleted] ford I own a $44,000 piece of junk thanks ford.
