Poor Comfort Front Seats
I and several others that have rode with me find the front seats very uncomfortable. It actually feels like your sitting in a bucket. The power seat doesn't have enough lower adjustment on the fron portion of the seat so a lot of weight is under your legs and thighs with the hard seating bolsters on the side. The other major complaint I have is that the door seals don't seal well enough and allows dirt sand snow etc to be thrown up under them...really shoddy workmanship. I have to believe Edmunds and others must get incentives to write the rave reviews they have given this car. Also with cheap gas its no big deal but my I-4 Turbo has good power but will not get even close to what is posted on estimate. Then if you figure the mileage longhand you will find its even worse than what the trip computer says. The 28 mpg posted must be going down hill with a tail wind. Count on 21-23 real world running 70-75 mph

I LIKE THIS CAR
The Edge is a comfortable, quiet car with good pickup and a smooth ride. I like the technology, it was easy for me to learn. I'm still getting use to the backup camera, this is a great feature but does take some getting use to. So over all I like the car and I am looking forward to many years of service form it. I just got back from a 3500 mile drive through the mid-west. The car was comfortable to drive and gas mileage was as high as 29 mpg on one stretch. UPDATE: I bought a ford Edge in 2015, It has been a very dependable car. Comfortable to get in and out of, comfortable to drive. Maintenance costs are low. I would recommend this car.

Great car but for your butt
My new Edge has the ecoboost 4cyl with trailer package. My experience is that it does everything well EXCEPT FOR...... (see below). It provides a comfortable confidence inspiring ride. The interior is well done. Road noise, rattles etc. are negligible. Fit and finish are good. It tows VERY well. Gas milage is very good; 14mpg towing 3,000 lbs and 23mpg otherwise. EXCEPT FOR ...... The front seats are not comfortable. They appear to be designed for children and Twiggy. I am an average person, 5'9" 170 lbs, the seat is too narrow for me. Someone got carried away trying to put a racing type car seat in this model. The seat bolsters on the side of the seat are too pronounced without adequate room in-between. The result is that there is not adequate room for you butt. The side bolsters squeezes your bum together just like a pair of too small shoes squeezes your toes together. My front seat passengers have also complained of this condition. As I like this car, I will take it to an automotive upholstery shop and have the seats redesigned. I wish the steering wheel would be more adjustable - - my wife's Dodge Caravan adjusts wonderfully. But I don't think I can swap that out :-) UPDATE AUG 2016 I am a little more comfortable with the seat - all my other comments are still actuate. ANOTHER ITEM BUGS ME --> the speedometer's midpoint, at the 12 o'clock position, shows 80mph ! When the speedometer needle is straight up (12 o'clock position) It should be 50mph or 60mph NOT 80 ! The end point of the speedo is 160mph ! This car would have be dropped from a satellite to get to 160mph. UPDATE Feb 5 2017 The seat feels a little better - I absolutely HATE the speedo set-up (funny how little things can bug you) I overstated towing mileage --> I'm getting 12mph when towing --> overall VERY GOOD CAR UPDATE Aug 17, 2017 same as above - I ABSOLUTELY HATE the speedo display. UPDATE AUGUST 8 2018: Speedo layout sti'll annoying plus Speedo screen angle is poor so that it reflects so much sun light that quite often it is difficult to read. I had to paste dots on the screen at 45, 55 & 65 mph. All other comments above still hold true.UPDATE FEB, 2020 - I am now comfortable with the seat, all other pluses and minuses remain the same. UPDADE AUG 2020 I ave 8K miles a yr (Except for this year because of the covid mess) as I have several cars. However this is my “go to” car as it is my (& my families) favorite. All previous pluses & minuses remain as is We have 5 vehicles - this one is still my favorite. It does just about everything well and it can accomplish anything on my agenda. Speedo still sucks. UPDATE Feb 17, 2022 - EXCEPT THAT I HATE THE SPEEDO - This is one of the best cars that I have owned. We have several cars and a lot of children and grand children THEY ALL want to use my EDGE. It now has about 100,000 miles on it and just keeps going on. AUG 2024. Well as I lose weight the front seat becomes more comfortable. Our family members now live in houses that are within walking distance of us --> as we still own several cars, from time to time they borrow one of ours. Our Edge continues to be the choice for everyone. I've given in and use our Focus. The speedometer continues to be a joke and source of wonderment; whatever could the designers have been thinking. I don't use the Edge for towing any longer. Non-towing milage is 21. The Edge continues to be reliable, comfortable and easy to drive. Feb 19 -> same as last year - speedo is the largest irritant in this car remains the families favorite alternate vehicle

love my Edge but
The late model 2015 I have is really the new 2016 new model. What I find very dangers is the kick under bumper rear hatch close and open. It only opens when the sending unit is in your pocket, so you have to remember to take it out or it will activate it. If you reach in to get something to far the hatch comes down on your head. This has happen many times and, I asked my dealer if they could disconnect it and was told they could not. I reached in to get my fishing poles out and the hatch started coming down, had to move fast. No protection on the top of the rear bumper so the paint gets chipped taking things in and out

2015 dissapointment
I have had my Ford Edge for less than 2 years, 17months to the day that my transmission went out on it, I bought it brand new sometimes I drive 1,0000 miles a week, all highway miles, but I usually get rid of vehicles around 75,000 to stay away from big problems. So 17 months new, and I'm driving down the road and the transmission starts spinning .. my transmission completely broke at 60,979 miles so as you may know 3 yr /60,000 mile warranty didn't cover it since it was 979 miles out of the warranty, it was gone for 1 month at the Ford garage they ended up rebuilding it finally just now got it back, and I hate that I just spent 3,500+ with a rental car another 1,000 + a monthly payment of 665.00 when I don't have it for the whole month it was gone for 29 days :( I would have never imagined a transmission would go out at 60,000 miles being that there is no Service to the transmission due to 150,000 miles .I argued with them saying it was their fault my stock tires should never outlast a transmission. I guess I'm just really disappointed this is why I always buy new cars so bad things don't happen to them the lady at the dealership pretty much told me I should've bought the extended warranty, so if you didn't think I was mad enough when she said that you can imagine how po'd I was.I have never kept vehicles over 75,000 miles because the small stuff starts happening but apparently with this something huge happened at 60,979 miles. Just really disappointed with the whole situation.
