It starts with the virtues that have come to define Ford's recent car and truck offerings. The Edge is one of the most popular SUVs in the country, and after last year's overhaul, it's easy to see why. 2 position, a midsize, five-seater model that is realistically the just-right size for most families. In this crossover hierarchy, the 2012 Ford Edge sits above the Escape in the No.

Whereas most other manufacturers sell two or perhaps three, the Blue Oval offers four plus a pair of truck-based behemoths for serious family hauling. When it comes to crossovers, Ford definitely has you covered. I truly hate this car and will never purchase this brand again. But the maintenance and repair bills have been unreal. It seemed like a great value, all the options for the price. It was a 1 owner, zero accidents, only 40k and everything I was looking for. I was so excited about this car when I purchased it. I can’t believe under 100k and I’ve replaced so many things including major drivetrain stuff. And yes I had the fluid changed at the recommended mileage.

Currently, the transmission is shifting hard and is probably on its last leg. Not to mention various other smaller repairs that I can’t think of at the moment. I’ve done a $500 hose repair, new rotors, and replaced the TURBO AND CATALYTIC CONVERTER, which was a $3300 repair. That’ll be an additional $500 if I want it fixed. And that didn’t even fix the rear view camera. At 60,000 … miles & only 4 years old, the touch screen went out completely. I have done all routine maintenance on time. The worst part is I’ve taken better care of this car than any car I’ve ever owned. But this car has needed more repairs than any car I’ve ever owned. I have the 20 inch chrome wheels & all the bells & whistles. But the many bugs and issues I have had are a huge problem in that I feel like I am constantly complaining about stupid things going wrong with an SUV that is still fairly young in age. I do know that with my bad back it is one of the easiest vehicles for me to maneuver in, and has plenty of storage.

Could you please not put buttons on the side of the gear shift? What engineering genius thought of this? Do I hate my vehicle? No. Or where certain buttons are located that you accidentally hit while trying to use the counsel.

Let’s also talk about a Symc system you have to go through … several hidden steps to hook up your phone. A bad brake sensor, and not a bad wiper switch.all before 100 k. Let’s start with a bad fuel pump at 60k miles. I really want to believe I purchased a lemon in the group. Everything about this vehicle met my needs however, many, and I do mean many, little annoyances have not made this my best vehicle choice.
