Anonymous, PA (2012 Ford Edge)"Handling and comfort make this vehicle so fun to drive."
Anonymous, BC (2012 Ford Edge)"very sluggish had to get a major repair to engine (not transmission)"
Anonymous, WI (2012 Ford Edge)"This is a very comfortable car to drive. It handles quite well on the highway, on local streets and in all kinds of weather. The engine/ transmission is very adequate for the vehicle and I have never been in a situation that I felt I needed more power or better handling. My car is garage kept and looks as good, inside and out, as it did when it was new. Ford definitely built a quality vehicle that I fully expect to last to at least 150,000 miles. With the exception of Ford's abandonment of support for their vastly over priced infotainment and navigation systems, this is the best car I have ever owned. Sadly they ruined it all by shafting their customers with the electronics package."
Anonymous, FL (2012 Ford Edge)"Very strong torque steer under full acceleration to the point where on a wet road you could lose control."
Anonymous, ON (2012 Ford Edge)"Pleasure to drive, great on trips, could use more engine power, transmission shifts are not always smooth"
DENNIS L., MI (2012 Ford Edge)"The car has pep for an suv and we have experienced very good handling, acceleration and braking in our 5 years of usage."
H K., MD (2012 Ford Edge)"hesitation causes missshift at times when in traffic and hitting gas. When taking foot off gas- feels like engine brake is engaged, instead of coasting down a hill it maintains the speed."
Anonymous, MA (2012 Ford Edge)"Handling"
Anonymous, BC (2012 Ford Edge)"I chose the 2.0L, 4cyl., Turbocharged engine over the standard 6cyl. engine. I have never owned a car with a 4cyl engine in over 50 years of driving. From the start I have been thoroughly impressed with the performance of this engine, especially in a rather heavy SUV. My Edge handles quite well on the highway and around town. It is nimble, quiet, comfortable and has a solid feel. It is simply fun to drive."
Anonymous, FL (2012 Ford Edge)"lack of knowledgeable service people"
MICHAEL R., FL (2012 Ford Edge)"Transmission unreliable, changing from "park to drive, a noise is heard. Steering wheel made of a non leather material, deterioration observed after third year."
Anonymous, PR (2012 Ford Edge)"Smooth, quiet and for a 3.5 liter motor, powerful with excellent around town mileage (21/22). My wife loves the styling and overall looks of the car. Easy to drive with good all-around vision. Excellent brakes and transmission. A nice car to drive."
Richard T., MA (2012 Ford Edge)"Very peppy. Great passing. Great fuel mileage"
Anonymous, AB (2012 Ford Edge)"Just great handling and acceleration ."
Anonymous, TN (2012 Ford Edge)"Handles well for SUV, not real excited about 6 speed transmission."
Dick H., FL (2012 Ford Edge)"This Edge accelerates quickly. There is no lag time from when you hit the gas and actually start to moving. This is my favorite part of this car."
