mcfcjoe Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Hi guys. Just an update on my edge. It's still with the dealer. They sent it to Bristol ford yesterday so could look at the problems today but heard nothing from dealer. That's a whole week now they have had it . In fact the dealer has had it more days than me. Really fed up now. They have given me a kuga rental car but just dissapointed. does anyone have any suggestions what I can do ? Could I refuse the car and tell them to keep it . Thanks Joe.

NeilRS Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 Think you've got to give them a chance to fix it before you can formally reject the car- google rejecting a new car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarEdge Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 Have you got Ford Customer Relations involved? They can sonetimes put pressure on the dealer. Might be worth a try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcfcjoe Posted March 24, 2017 Author Share Posted March 24, 2017 Thanks customer relations are involved .....told today they don't know how to fix the problems waiting for ford Canada to get back to them with ideas ....they have had the car now 10days and still have no idea how to fix the problems. Given me a rental car but feel very deflated ...hopefully next week I will have an answer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kylinski Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 I have formally rejected my Edge. Hopefully getting a Mondeo Vignale for replacement. Ford customer relations were great, kept pushing things along when the dealer seemed reluctant to get it sorted. Still ongoing though . . . What problem(s) did you have with yours?

Kylinski Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 Main problem was leaking pan roof. Water got into roof and centre consul switches. Loose door trim, excess speed warning chime not working. Rear seat folded half way. Marked paintwork. Bent scuff plate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Killer Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 Just booked mine in for very loud rattle coming from passenger door and rear hatch sticking. Never had any warranty issues with the Kuga though but that was built in Europe the Edge was built over the pond and the amount of miles I have driven over there I didnt have one exceptable decent car. Always found build quality with American / Canadian vehicles dreadful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
