Edge SEL 3.5L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 105,633 miles

This Edge is US made and I bought it used in 2011 with 50,000 kilometres. At around 170,000 kilometers, there was a slight vibration between 20 and 30 miles per hour on the third gear. It became more evident which cause me concern, initially, about the transmission. I had it checked but expert saw nothing wrong with the transmission.

Also on a few occasion moving from a traffic light, the suv would not enter into the second gear and stayed into the first gear. I had to stop, shut the engine, and after restarting it which caused a reset of the computer, the suv was functioning normally again. Another time, while driving around 30 miles per hour, the engine had mishap, that I thought was water in the gas tank, but it happened even with a full tank.

Last night, while warming up the engine, a CD came out of the of its slot. I thought I accidentally touched the radio then a second CD came out. So when I think of all these different mishaps, I am starting to think that this may be cause by the Edge computer not functioning properly and causing different problems on different emplacement ( engine, transmission gear, radio). Some mechanic suggested maybe the transmission, torque, engine problems - but the CD coming out ???? What comes to my mind is computer malfunction because after restarting the engine, the computer reset solved the malfunction. Still looking for the solution!
