    I own a 2013 Ford Edge with 140000 miles, 3.5 v6 non turbo. It is the SEL so it has a lot of bells and whistles. The only problems I have had are: a/c door actuators, door latch on drivers side(even though the door is shut it shows the door ajar light. I just ran a wire to bypass the door sensor, they wanted $230 for the switch). And the brake switch under the brake pedal, the dealer wanted $350 to replace the brake switch assembly(it took $25 at O’Reileys for the brake switch. I change oil every 5000 miles with full synthetic oil and change my transmission fluid every 30000 miles. I also flush the radiator every three years. I just pray the water pump doesn’t fail.

    I own a 1985 s15 truck with 2.6 engine with a carb and no electronics.
    The truck has 800,000 plus miles and still running strong. I would buy this navigator for that price. If you take care of the vehicle it will probably get another 100,000 plus more miles.

Ran like new only replaced radiator at 19 years. Only three exhaust systems over the years all the rest original. Lived in the New York area with minor rust on running boards. Smacked up the driver's door and rear quarter panel. Insurance offered more than I could sell it for so a year in my eye i😢 bid farewell.

      Mine did that and the valve that came from the carbon canister to the engine was stuck open. Everytime I filled it ( to the top of the tank...trying to get that last dollar in ) raw gas was being pumped through instead of the fumes. The car would want to stall out after filling to the top a few times and then it would clear up and run great after. The dealer told me to stop filling the tank after the pump shuts off. Over filling a tank can damage the valve and or the carbon canister. They replaced the valve and the problem went away.
