What Owners Say
"Camera was replaced on warranty due to malfunction."
Raymond Z., TX (2015 Ford Edge SEL 3.5-L V6)"dThis happened only once. I was in a hurry and had some difficulty holding my foot on the brake in sync with pressing the start button. The sputtered but enventually started. I started drivinging and noticed that I had no dash gauge info. When I got to where I was going and restarted to leave everything came up normally and has ever since"
Anonymous, AR (2015 Ford Edge Sport 3.5-L V6)"Twice in the six months I've had the vehicle the sound system has just frozen up, I can't change the audio controls at all, including volume and station. Restarting the vehicle fixed the problem both times, but unfortunately I was on the freeway for both incidents so had to keep on driving"
Beth R., WA (2015 Ford Edge)"Started with frequent shut downs with software updates u til one day the screen went blank rendering no access to my heat/cooling controls, radio, backup camera, Bluetooth and navigation. Had to go to dealership who proceeded to inform me it needed a manufacturers software update. Has worked fine ever since. Seems coincidental I had received a notice from Ford prior to this stating I needed to purchase a new SD card for the navigation system to update my maps. That was several hundred dollars and didn't want to not for that. I ended up having to pay for it even though I purchase the extended warranty which covered everything."
Anonymous, ME (2015 Ford Edge SEL 2.0-L 4 Cyl turbo)"The SYNC screen goes blank several times in the past 18 months. I believe the system is not reliable. Car spent nearly two weeks at dealer in first month. Problem continued for the next year. Reported problem to Ford and requested car replacement. Returned to dealer where they did system update. No problems in the last 2 months. Still have no confidence in the system. We can't wait for the lease to be done"
Anonymous, NC (2015 Ford Edge Titanium 3.5-L V6)"When listening to a radio station and I connect my iphone the radio automatically switches to iphone music. I have to select radio station again to disengage iphone music. This has been happening more often within the past month. While the phone is connected the system intermittently keeps switching to iphone music while I'm Driving."
