The 2012 Ford Edge for buyers
We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2012 Ford Edge for sale by us right now. The 2012 Ford Edge for buyers: what the numbers say, what to check, how to try it.
What to check on the Edge
NHTSA has 1,134 owner complaints on file, mostly about electrical system, service brakes and unknown or other. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. There are 3 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done.
The numbers in plain words
The powertrain to know here is the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo, with front-wheel drive. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
At 9.8 L/100 km combined, a 300 km drive takes roughly 29 litres of fuel. Driving 300 km costs roughly $45.57 at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,800 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Inside and out
It offers the space of an SUV with the height that makes loading easy.
Good uses for the Edge
It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going.
A longer test drive
Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. A week with the Edge answers more than any brochure.
The cost of driving it
At our price setting, 100 km costs about $15.19 in fuel. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car.
Which one to look for
Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires.
