  1. The owners manual says nothing about wiring the coach battery to the tow vehicle battery. The question is why is the tow vehicle battery discharging when the manual is being followed exactly.
  2. We recently purchased a new 2011Edge because we were told that it could be flat towed. The dealer referred us to page 242 of the owners manual and if we followed these instructions, we should have no problem.Traveling to Arizona this winter, on the second day, the battery's vehicle was dead. We got it jumpstarted and again were on our way. We contacted the dealer and advised them of the problem and were told by the service manager to buy a dolly. Next, idle the car while being towed by the motorhome. After a short period of time we were advised against this because of insufficient air flow to the radiator. Then we were told to take to the nearest Ford dealer as they were experiencing problems with the battery. The dealership advised us that the battery was okay and they could find no electrical problem with the car. On our return trip, not to experience the same problem, we did not drive at night and the after our second day of traveling we once again experienced a dead battery after strictly following the guidelines in the owner's manual. Has anyone else experienced a similar problem? A very disappointed new Ford Edge owner
