Problem overview

Some Ford Edge owners report experiencing rust issues on the top edge of the driver's door, often linked to problems with door latches, hinges, or locking mechanisms. Additionally, rust is commonly found on the inside bottom of the door, particularly at the seam between the outer and inner skins, which may necessitate professional intervention to grind out the rust, chemically treat the area, and repaint the door. To mitigate rust on the top edge, some owners find that applying a suitable lubricant like WD-40 can help loosen the rust and free up the door. Promptly addressing these rust issues is crucial to prevent further damage and maintain the vehicle's structural integrity and appearance. Regular maintenance can significantly prolong the life of the Ford Edge and ensure its safety and functionality on the road.
