Better than my 2017!

I traded in my 2017 (which I was very happy with). Wasn't in the market, but dealer made a great offer. After 3 weeks with the vehicle, the upgrade was well worth it. It feels like Ford asked me "How can we improve on your 2017?", and then addressed all of my answers. The new 8-speed is super smooth, and the car feels much peppier especially off the line (it's no hot rod). The Start/Stop system is innocuous, and the ride is more refined as well. The dial shifter takes some getting used to (I reach for a stick that isn't there). The B&O stereo has better sound quality than the Sony system in my previous car. Build quality is much better, and the restyled hood gives better visibility than my previous one. Like the new steerable headlights (LED) and the fog lights, and the wireless charging. 1 year update: Everything above still holds. Have taken it on a couple of road trips and averaged 27-29 mpg highway depending on conditions. I never get below 21 mpg in all conditions. I recently noticed that Ford deleted the Adaptive Steering system in the 2019 that was part of the 2017 Ford Edge Titanium package (not that I ever used it). 18-month update: Above still holds. Also like the OTA updates that Ford provides for Sync 3. The latest updates have include enhancements to the Navigation sub-display next to the speedometer that shows Google Maps directions when using Android Auto. It also shows the speed limits. They also revised the Sync 3 "skin" to reflect the current Ford graphics style. 2-year update. Only one problem so far: faulty Windshield Washer motor, which dealer replaced under warranty. Only beef I have is with the sound system when using Android Auto. The sound quality is diminished if you use Bluetooth for audio. If you connect the phone to the car via USB, you have to select "This phone" on your to get improved sound quality (through USB) rather than "Ford Edge" (which uses Bluetooth). I wish Ford had sprung for Aptx support so that higher frequencies would be reproduced more effectively. 30-month update: Ever since purchase, the front end had a clicking noise when turning. Two dealers couldn't find it. I took it to a third dealer (with a video of the issue occurring from my phone), and the dealer replaced both front half-shafts which eliminated the issue! Other than that, car's been great!

AWD malfunction!!!

So I bought this car on 11/23 but it came from the factory with a broken touchscreen. 1 week later, new one installed and had problems with Apple car play. They replaced the screen and still had the same problem. Next they replaced a module and then Apple car play worked about 80% of the time. Then the AWD Malfunction warning occurred on a Saturday, dropped it at service on Monday, picked it up on Wednesday by Saturday I got the same AWD Malfunction light. Took it back to service on Feb 25, 2019. Today is day 51 straight that it has been in the shop at Ford dealer. They've replaced at least a rear end differential, the rear end wiring harness, some modules and still the problem exists. They even sent an engineer from Ford and it sits in the shop with no estimate on when it will be fixed. I keep asking for my money back or a replacement vehicle but Ford keeps refusing. It's been in for repairs 61 days of its less-than 5 months of being on the road. That is well within the qualifications as a LEMON in the state of Texas but they won't acknowledge that fact. So FED UP with Ford. NEVER AGAIN. Ford Motor Company ended up buying back that vehicle from me and I now drive a Chevy Blazer AWD and love it.

ST is a worthy upgrade over the Sport

I went from a 17 Sport to the ST with brake package. Ford did a great job with the suspension and brakes on this vehicle. It rides and handles better than the outgoing Sport model. The brakes are fantastic for vehicle of this size and weight. The new 8 speed transmission is an nice improvement as well. Off the line acceleration feels quicker and smoother than the old 6 speed. As far as the exterior styling goes, I love it. Ford really nailed it with the updated front and rear fascia's. Optioned with the 21" inch wheels and brake package, I think it is one of the best looking 2 row SUV's on the market right now. It gets a lot of looks and people asking me how fast it goes. The safety features and technology you get with the co-pilot 360 is pretty good as well. I'm glad to see Ford bringing it to more models and trims. As far as the interior goes, the B&O play sound system is a noticeable improvement over the Sony system that it replaced in the Sport. The seats look great, are comfortable with just the right amount of bolstering. The updated center console with rotary shifter definitely looks better and allows for more functional use of the center console space. I wasn't sure how I would like using the rotary shifter but after a couple weeks of using it I wouldn't want to go back to using the gear shift knob. Surprisingly, using a gear shift knob seems clunky and antiquated to me now. Now, If i was going to ding the Edge for something it would be the blah looking dash. Functionally, there's nothing wrong with it, all the buttons you'd expect to have are there and the 8" screen with Sync 3 is good. But the instrument cluster and dash could use a styling and refinement upgrade, something similar to what they did to the 2020 Explorer would be great. All in all, I really think the Ford Edge ST is a fantastic vehicle and a very nice upgrade over the Sport.

Great Car for the Mountains

A year and a half and 20,000 miles into it, I love my Ford Edge ST as much as when I first bought it. The power is awesome. I-60 in 5 seconds for what is a big car is just amazing. Handling is great too, more sports car like, as is braking. It’s a comfortable car that’s fun to drive. Original review: My Subaru 2.5 Outback blew a rod going over Vail Pass, so I decided I needed a 2 row AWD SUV with some power. I read and watched every review of the new Edge ST, and my opinion is that those who don't think the Edge ST is a "real ST" probably live somewhere where it's flat and sunny. I don't want a car that's going to throw out the rear wheels cornering, because for me that corner might sometimes be at the edge of a cliff, or in the freezing rain, sleet and snow you can get in three seasons in Colorado's Rockies. The Excellent Traction Control and Cornering Stability on the Edge ST makes it a great choice in places like Colorado, Utah, Montana and Wyoming. It's a fun car to drive! Off-the-wall acceleration, feels just a tad slower than my 2006 Corvette. The twin turbos shine at high elevations. No problem getting over mountain passes with this thing. And, it's even more spacious than my Outback. Plenty of room to haul everything, also with a tow hitch package as standard. Update - one year and 17,500 miles into owning my Edge ST and I still love it as much as when I first bought it. Except for the 10,000 mile service I have maintained it myself, changing oil and filter every 3,000 miles. Also added a crankcase ventilation oil catch canister to the passenger side and put in a K&N air filter when new and regular service it. Snow tires installed December through April. Anyway, great car. Fabulous acceleration, braking and handling. Gas mileage driving it hard 23 to 25 mpg. I would buy it again. UPDATE: At age 72, and having owned eight new cars in the past 25 years plus a dozen used cars in prior years, realizing that this is my favorite says something. I'm hands-on and do all the basic maintenance myself. Though they weren't needed I did a four-wheel new brake job last year, as I wanted drilled and slotted rotors. I've had zero mechanical issues in 51,000 miles. It's just a really fun car to drive. It's the 2nd fastest car I've ever owned, 2nd to a C6 Corvette I bought off the showroom floor in 2006. I had a 1972 Ford Cougar that might have kept up with this car but that's about it. This big 2-Row Edge ST is fast, really a perfect car for urban drivers who want great acceleration and braking. I've read complaints about the transmission and I don't get that at all. I read of coolant leaks but in my car haven't lost a drop. Handling is precise for a big SUV. All wheel drive is stellar and I think better than the Subaru Outback I purchased new in 2013. I live in Colorado and drive in the mountains, so every car I own gets tested in heavy winter conditions, over mountain passes, etc., and I completely trust this car in adverse weather conditions. There's also ample space for all of my gear, whether hiking, camping, cycling, snowshoeing or skiing. I've got a rear bike rack that uses my 2" rear hitch, but if I'm just driving my bicycle to the start of a ride or outing, any of my bicycles fit in the rear hatch fully assembled. The interior cleans up well, and looks good after 3 1/2 years. The exterior still looks great too. I plan to drive this car to at least 100,000 miles. I'm super happy with the car, and don't know of any car south of $65K that I'd choose to replace it.
