Some Ford Edge owners report experiencing intermittent starting issues, which may be attributed to various potential causes. These include electrical system faults that can prevent the vehicle from starting, as well as fuel and spark issues stemming from a loss of fuel or high voltage spark at the spark plugs. Additionally, a failing ignition switch can lead to symptoms such as stalling and a lack of power to the radio or accessories. Fuel delivery problems can also result in the Edge cranking without starting if the proper amount of fuel does not reach the combustion chamber. Other common culprits include a dead 12v battery, corrosion on battery terminals, and a dead key fob battery. Starter problems, such as a broken starter, may further complicate starting issues, and an immobilizer error can also prevent the vehicle from starting. It is recommended that owners experiencing these issues seek a thorough inspection to accurately diagnose and resolve the underlying problems for reliable vehicle operation.
