It’s the #1 thing you can do for your car.”

Ford recommends changing your 2018 Edge’s oil at regular intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. Your Edge may need an oil change right away if your check engine/oil change light is on, you hear engine knocking, sense an oil smell in the cabin, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust.

In fact, more frequent oil changes give our technicians more opportunities to catch and alert you to any issues, like worn brake pads or a weak battery.
