The Ford Edge is the Best Friend You Didn’t Know You Needed

The Ford Edge is worthy of praise, and it’s long overdue. Consumer Reports coined the crossover as one of the best for less than $40,000, one of the most reliable mid-size crossovers, one of the most reliable three-year-old vehicles, and one of the safest and most reliable three-year-old vehicles. The Edge’s list of accolades continues to expand once more. For 2023, J.D. Power evaluated the mid-size crossover segment, and the Ford SUV ranked third in the US Dependability Study.

Although Ford and Lincoln experienced a decline in the J.D. Power study, the Edge couldn’t relate. The 2020 Ford Edge is the most reliable mid-size crossover on the market, ranking behind the Chevrolet Blazer and Hyundai Santa FE. The accolade for the Blue Oval stamped SUV is more than deserving of the achievement seeing as how the rest of the contenders in the segment offer inflated pricing. 

The 2023 J.D. Power US Vehicle Dependability Study observed responses from over 30,000 original owners of 2020 model-year vehicles after three years of ownership. In addition, the study examined how 2020 models perform regarding replacements, appeal, quality, and its intentions to erect better that withstand the test of time while advocating for higher resale values. Furthermore, the study examined 184 specific dilemmas across nine major vehicle classifications: climate, driving assistance, driving experience, exterior, features, infotainment, interior, powertrain, and seats. 

“The used-vehicle market has helped sustain dealers’ profitability in the past couple of years, but they need to know which vehicles to have on their lots. Having vehicles with strong dependability scores will nurture a positive brand perception and drive foot traffic.” 

– Jonathan Banks, vice president and general manager of vehicle valuations at J.D. Power
