Ford Edge Reliability

Want to more clearly know what the difference in reliability will be if you buy a Ford Edge rather than another vehicle? Concerned about your chances of getting a lemon?

TrueDelta provides this information in the form of "times in the shop" stats that make the actual repair rates clear and, in the future, "lemon-odds."

The latest Car Reliability Survey (CRS) results include Ford Edge reliability information based on owner experiences through June 30, 2010:

Fewest         Most Sample size too small to split by drivetrain. Otherwise, the AWD would likely be much worse than the FWD as with the 2007 and 2008.

Fewest         Most Have split the FWD and AWD results because of many reports of leaking AWD power transfer units. This yields a high repair rate for the AWD Edge and MKX.

To provide comprehensive results, TrueDelta needs reliability data on all cars--not just the Ford Edge--from people like you. To encourage participation, those who help provide the data receive free access to the site's car reliability information. Find out the details.

Ford Edge Repair Histories

To supplement our Car Reliability Survey, TrueDelta collects Ford Edge repair histories, a list of all the repairs that have been performed on a vehicle. With these, no minimum sample is required and owners can report repairs that occurred before joining.

Individual responses to both the Car Reliability Survey and the Car Repair History Survey are posted here:

Ford Edge Extended Warranty

Concerned about the Ford Edge's reliability? Considering an extended warranty? Warranty Direct is a 26-year-old company with nearly 2 million contracts sold and over $500 million in paid claims.

Like insurance, extended warranties are best bought to limit downside risk, and from a company that is almost certain to remain in business. While for most people extended warranties will not pay off, for some they will pay for themselves many times over.

If you are unsure about the Ford Edge's reliability, or simply want the peace of mind afforded by an extended warranty, you can click here to purchase one from Warranty Direct.

Ford Edge Gas Mileage

Everyone knows that government estimates often aren't indicative of the Ford Edge's gas mileage in the real-world.

In response, TrueDelta began collecting gas mileage data from owners of the Ford Edge, with the intent of providing real-world gas mileage estimates customized to how and where you drive.

"Why (Not) the Ford Edge?" Reviews

For car buyers' reasons for buying a Edge--or not--click here.

Want another perspective? Since 1999, Michael Karesh, the developer of TrueDelta, has contributed reviews to Epinions, where he is one of two people who oversee the autos section.

Michael's most recent Ford Edge review.

Note: The older the review, the more likely it has become outdated owing to more recently introduced competitors.

Ford Edge Tire Reviews

The Tire Rack offers the Internet's most extensive collection of Ford Edge tire reviews, tire survey results, and tire tests. To see which tires are available for the Ford Edge--or for your car--and go from there to Tire Rack's comprehensive information, use the tool in the sidebar.

The Tire Rack can be especially useful as a source of winter tires, which I have strongly recommended ever since buying a set for my car. If you're unhappy with your car's handling and braking on snow and ice, you probably just need proper winter tires, not a new car.
