Fabulous Ford

Drove a Ford vehicle everyday for the better part of 30 years. LTD, Crown Vic’s and Explorers That took abuse from fleet use and never quit. Transmissions typical Ford but they lasted 100000 miles or better. This Edge by far comfortable, adequate power and smartly styled. Excellent value for the money.

Scared to drive on a Rd trip

2017 Ford edge titanium , had to replace tires before 30000 miles. Took on trip and whole radio, GPS, touch screen quit working. Button s below would not work either. Driving thru snow storm and can't get defrost to turn on. Very scary. Called Ford for assistance and got someone over seas. Told us to contact our dealership, was told not a safety issue for recall. Really!!!!! Was told to take to a dealership in AZ. And leave so they could look at it, no rental or loaner car. I'm like thousands of miles from home.

Quiet and smooth ride for SUV

We put a lot of mileage on our cars and after going the hybrid route decided it was time to get rid of the noisy drive and all the bumps. Love the Edge as it performs beautifully in both categories. Have not owned it long enough to know reliability. But we'll enjoy the ride till we find out!

Taking it up a step

Just bought this car today. Put 80 miles just driving it back home. Performance is good, but has the larger engine in it. It does have mirrors that tell you if something is in your blindspot so that will take some getting used to as I turned around to look and couldn't see. Love the lift gate and panoramic roof. All in all, so far, so good.

Ford is on the mark with the 2017 Ford Edge.

This was our first lease experience. We were concerned about the overall quality of the Edge, but since we were leasing, we decided to give it a try. Once we settled on the specific vehicle we wanted, we told the dealership (Columbia Ford) we were going to shop around at all the other Ford dealerships in eastern Conn for the best deal. No other dealers could compete, except for the Ford dealership in Plainfield, Ct, except they did not have the car. We are very pleased with the lease to date. The Ford Edge has proven to be well made and reliable. Only two issues, a defective battery and an overhead hand grip that became dislodged; both items promptly corrected by Columbia Ford at no cost. The Ford edge meets our needs: all wheel drive, large roomy, stylish design, plenty of power, good heating and cooling. Plus a dealership that is a most attentive and caring about our needs.

Great driving car

This car has no blind spots and the automatic lift gate is the best! It has a very smooth ride and accelerates very quickly and efficiently.

Have not had one problem with the car

I have the I have the Sport version with the EcoBoost. It is like driving a little sports car. Lots of acceleration and great handling I am very happy with my purchase. I bought it from Dahl Ford. Good dealership.

Excellent All Around Vehicle

I could not be more pleased with my purchase of this vehicle. I bought this SUV new on December 28,2017. Here are my observations after 1 year and 9,527 miles. Vehicle: 2017 Ford Edge SEL. Options I chose: All-Wheel-Drive, 2.0 Ecoboost engine, Blue Jeans Metallic exterior, Ebony leather interior The good: A lot of feature content on the SEL trim. Mine has leather seats, heated front seats, power driver & front passenger seats, heated steering wheel, fog lights and much more. The interior is very comfortable and VERY spacious. I am 6 ft 6 in tall and I have plenty room to spare in both the front and rear seats. One of my big reasons for choosing the Edge over other SUVs was how spacious it is. The ride on both the highway and in town is excellent and the cabin is very quiet even at 70 miles per hour. Cargo space is generous and the 2nd row seats fold down which is helpful. The gas mileage is acceptable for a mid size crossover. I average 21 mpg and on the few road trips I gone on, I've averaged 26-27 on the highway. The All-Wheel-Drive system works great in snow. The AWD is intelligent meaning that there is no button to push or dial to turn when AWD is needed, the car senses the road conditions and activates AWD when appropriate. The build quality and reliability has been top-notch so far. The size is perfect for driving around town and driving on the highway. The Bad: Value for the money. If you buy the Edge brand new, the price is very close to that of an Explorer or other 3 row vehicle. To add onto it, the resale value is mediocre at best. I looked up the trade in value the other day and it's quite low considering how much it costs new. I'm not planning on selling it anytime soon so this isn't an issue for me but if you like to trade often, this will be a downer.If you need three rows of seats, the Edge isn't the vehicle for you as there is no three row option, which is great for people like me who don't want or need a 3rd row of seats. Verdict: The Edge was a great choice for me , I very satisfied with it and I hope to own it for a long time. This is my 2nd Ford Edge, the first one being a 2011 SEL that I traded in after 22,000 miles for a pickup truck in 2013. I have observed that the 2017 is an upgrade from the 2011. The car I traded in to buy the '17 Edge was a '13 Subaru Outback 2.5i Limited. The Outback was a very good reliable car(46,000 miles with no issues) but it wasn't quite as comfortable and spacious as my Edge is. I would certainly recommend the Ford Edge to anyone looking for a practical,spacious,comfortable SUV.
