Alex Showalter
Aug 3, 2022

The 2008 Ford Edge only lasts around 150,000 miles with serious engine and transmission problems. At $6,651 to $8,054, it’s a lot of money for an SUV that breaks down often.

likeFilled The Good
The seats are comfortable, the infotainment system is user-friendly and the engine offers more power than some rivals.
dislikeFilled The Bad
There’s less cargo space than competitors, no third row is offered and the Edge loses its value quicker than other SUVs.

Is the 2008 Ford Edge a Good Used SUV?

  • No, 2008 is a bad year for the Ford Edge. Owner reviews complain about widespread mechanical problems, suspension issues, and electrical faults.
  • Interior quality is below average compared to other midsize SUVs with a lot of cheap materials used throughout the cabin. The infotainment technology is okay given its age.
  • Reliability ratings are terrible. Avoid models from 2007-2008 and go with a 20092010 which have fewer serious mechanical issues.
  • Performance is good from the standard V6 engine, offering more power than rivals.
  • The 2008 Edge is a very safe SUV, earning a 5-star overall rating in government crash tests, with the lowest score being 4-stars in the front passenger front crash test.
  • Fuel economy is good for a midsize SUV at 19 MPG, owners can expect to get around 380 miles of range out of the 20 gallon tank.

Safe while still being stylish.
Bought car new and love it. Perfect size for our family without being overly large. Nice interior and exterior styling. Dash is not overly cluttered. No major repair problems. Feels safe. Wish it had better gas mileage and upper hand holds for front seats.

On the back it says that it's an awd (all wheel drive) but it's not.
I like It's durability, the amount of cargo space it has, and It's stylish look. It is dependable and gets pretty good gas mileage. I also love the backup sensor, it's a must have for the next vehicle I get.

If you are wanting a SUV that is good on gas I would recommend something else. If you're not worried about gas mileage, I would recommend the edge, I love mine.
I like the style of it, it has a luxury appearance. It is comfortable for long trips and rides smooth. It is pretty good on gas, but could be a little better. I wish the air blew cooler and harder.

Hidden Lemon From Day One
My Ford Edge 2008 - 55,000 mile currently. First the problem with the airbag, next electrical failure with liftgate fell on my shoulder and arm...causing nerve damage. One month later while driving it started driving like I was going over multiple speed bumps for miles. Diagnosis, computer had melted a couple of rods, it had become a fire hazard. The cost for repair $3000. Add that to the $40,000 paid, it was a very expensive hunk of metal.

An average family size SUV.
I really wish it had 4 wheel drive. It has plenty of seating capacity and is comfortable. I have problems with brake calipers all the time. It is nothing fancy. Wish it had more technology capabilities. Trunk space is large and has the ability to fold back seats down which makes it nice for extra space to haul things.

It is just your standard vehicle. No surprises.
It is fairly good on gas, much less mpg than I thought when I bought it. Otherwise no issues. Considering my fiancée is a larger man, there's plenty of room for him. He prefers the larger ford's but the gas mileage sucked on his expedition. I think we went from 10mpg to maybe 20.
accountCircle Christina O
It doesn't get very good gas mileage. The automatic seats that are supposed to remember the driver does not work like it should . The heated and cool seats are a great bonus.
The vehicle actually runs great and the ride is smooth. The gas mileage is not great. The sunroof and moonroof make it look nicer. I love the satellite radio. All in all it's a great suv

What Do Critics Say About the Ford Edge?

  • Consumer Reports says the 2008 Ford Edge is unimpressive and lacks refinement found in other SUVs, with low owner satisfaction scores.
  • Edmunds gives the 2008 Edge a 4.6/5, praising the quiet cabin, but doesn’t like the long braking distances.
  • Kelley Blue Book users rate the Edge 4.5/5 and enjoy the comfortable suspension, but owners don’t like the floaty steering feel.

What Common Problems Does the 2008 Ford Edge Have?

The most common problems on the 2008 Ford Edge include the engine stalling while driving, transmission failures, and cruise control randomly engaging. Overall, these problems are more severe than issues found on other SUVs from 2008, but repair costs are average.

Stalling engines are the most common problem reported by owners, happening at around 60,000 miles. The source of the problem varies, and replacing the computer fixes the issue for about $1,200. Other owners have had to replace the head on the engine, which costs about $2,300.

Transmission failures show up on a lot of Edge models at around 80,000 miles. Usually damage to the transmission means that it will have to be replaced, costing about $3,000 depending on local labor rates.

Cruise control suddenly engaging is another issue mentioned by owners at around 35,000 miles. The source of the problem is an issue with the cruise control computer, which costs about $650 to replace.

There are 8 recalls, which is average compared to other SUVs from 2008. The most serious recall is for the fuel tank which may leak and increase the chance of a sudden fire. Many of the other recalls are just for airbags and not a concern once they’ve been changed.

How Long Will the 2008 Ford Edge Last?

A properly-maintained 2008 Ford Edge may last around 150,000 miles, which is half as long as top rated midsize SUVs like the Toyota Highlander. Regular annual maintenance costs are higher than rivals, according to Repair Pal, at $554 per year.

Since most 2008 Edge models will have over 100,000 miles buyers should be prepared to replace items including the A/C compressor for $850, the knock sensor costing $300, and the engine front gasket, which costs $1,700.

accountCircle Amy S

There has been an airbag recall however I do not have to pay for expenses to fix, it is covered by ford and the thermostat has gone out at about 130000 miles.

accountCircle Wayne R

accountCircle Jess T

Currently, I have to replace the windshield, and last time I got my car looked at, I took the least expensive route to make it drivable, so I will need to spend a lot more soon

How Much Is the 2008 Ford Edge Worth?

Blue book values range from $6,651 to $8,054, making it thousands less than a Honda Pilot or Toyota 4Runner, but still not worth the money. When new, the price range was $25,735 to $32,845. Depreciation is worse than average, losing about 13% of its current value per year.

What are the Different Models of the Ford Edge?

What Colors Does the Ford Edge Come In?

How Big Is the Ford Edge?

The 2009 Ford Edge is an average-sized midsize SUV similar in size to the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Mazda CX-9. Passenger room is good throughout the cabin, with enough legroom for adults in the backseats.

VehicleHistory Image

How Does the Ford Edge Compare to the Competition?

The 2008 Ford Edge is an average SUV based on reviews from owners, but there are a lot more mechanical problems than its closest competitors.

The Ford Escape is another rival from Ford, which costs about $1,200 less. Off-road performance is better in the Ford Escape with higher ground clearance, but the Ford Edge offers more passenger space. We recommend avoiding both SUVs for the 2008 model year, though, since they are loaded with mechanical problems.

The Honda Pilot is another rival, which costs about $1,500 more. Passenger and cargo room are both better in the Honda Pilot, but the Ford Edge offers a more powerful engine. We recommend going with the Honda Pilot since they’re more affordable to own, and last longer.

Great Vehicle, Dependable, Long Lasting
I have been the proud owner of a 2008 Ford Edge AWD SEL and honestly, I've never had a problem. I have maintained it as it should be (as the child of a mechanic, it's been ingrained in me since my teen years). It just hit 200,000 miles, and it still runs beautifully. The only things I have had to replace are one wheel bearing and the power steering belt, and I replaced the battery last week. It was the factory-installed battery. No big deal. That's pretty common wear and tear. The only issue I do have is a common issue with Ford, and that is where the rust typically shows up, around the wheel wells. There were a few recalls, no fault of Ford or the vehicle. Takata airbags were put into millions of vehicles and recalled due to shrapnel upon deployment. No charge to get that fixed. I see tons these on the road in great condition every single day. These are great vehicles.

400k mile SUV if you change 2 things.
So I bought my 08 Edge at 232000 miles. I paid wholesale price for it at a dealership. From the beginning I knew this car needed repairs; that's why I bought it. New spark plugs, engine computer repair, coils, a transmission flush a good cleaning and an A/C expansion valve and now I have a great vehicle! These cars are very reliable if you do 2 things (FWD only models) 1.) Change the transmission fluid! (Every 50k miles and PTU oil for AWD models...) 2.) Change the water pump and timing chains when they go out. Do those 2 things (on top of the normal maintenance...) and your Edge will run almost forever.

The 2008 Ford Edge SEL has been a great vehicle. I am the second owner and bought the car when it had 48000 miles. It now has 192000 miles and still going strong.

Great all of it. I love the room and color it barely shows any scratches. I love the durability and the long lasting engine and air conditioning. I also love the TV and the way it beeps when you're closer to hitting something when u back up. I just love all of it.
