Potentially buying used car

Asked by alexcute Sep 20, 2024 at 06:32 AM about the 2013 Ford Edge Sport AWD

Question type: Shopping & Pricing

132k miles on this AWD they are asking 11500 but I can get them down 11 I
think. This one comes with everything except trail hitch. My biggest concerns
are the car fax, gas gusler, how does it drive in winter, that high mileage,
the panoramic roof, the year. It’s been in 4 accidents here the car fax

It happened in the earlier stages of the car 20/30k miles, it seems to have been
just fine after those accidents since it’s at 132k now. Haven’t test drove it will
today, need to get it looked at professionally, just wondering what you know or
have had experiences with thanks for taking the time.

Too high a price even if they do come down to 11. These things are not the best, engine problems, transmission failures, electronic issues. My neighbor bought one 3 months ago and it has been in the shop more than he has driven it and he is really mad. Head gasket blew, HVAC computer went bad, window sensors went out causing the windows to just open for no reason, keyless entry stopped working, it needed a new module. All that in three month's time and it was a low mileage unit under 55000 miles just a 2014 vehicle. So, yes if you like it then get it checked over by a shop

These were not good vehicles. Look for an Explorer or Escape instead. In that order. Jim
