Consumer Review Video - 2008 Ford Edge SE 3.5L V6

Common problems and easy repairs on a 2008 Edge

The 2008 Ford Edge SE is easy to maintain. All of the headlights are accessible by simply reaching behind their bulb housing, allowing for reliable bulb changes whenever necessary. The tail lights also have quick access, as their housing pries out of the vehicle without a problem. The engine air filter allows for quick changes, as no tools are needed to disengage the housing to allow for access to the filter itself.

However, the 2008 Ford Edge SE has its downsides. The glove box and a second panel will need to be removed in order to access the cabin air filter, which won’t allow for reliable filter changes. Accessing the brake fluid reservoir might be a problem as it is slightly obstructed beneath the manifold in the engine bay. The interior fuse box has obstructed access in the footwell, and prying the dual covers out may prove rather challenging.
