What owners wrote

During any heavy rain with the windshield wipers on full, there're not fast enough to give your clear visibility, making driving in the rain very dangerous. My others ford cars do not have this problem. When the wipers are set to full setting they are much faster than on the ford edge. I see this as an serious. Dangerous problem.
