I am planning to buy Ford Edge 2008 Model. Please can anyone tell me possible maintenance challenges i am likely to face?

What about fuel consumption?

Do we have high number of mechanics who repairs the type of car?

What about cost of spare parts, are they considerably pocket friendly and available in our auto parts markets in Naija

Pls i want someone to enlighten me on all these?

Thank you Nairalanders

They are a very reliable spare part plug. I highly recommend them

Smart alaba opened my eyes to the fraudulent dealings of my auto mechanic who used to buy cheap and fake parts that never last

They only source the highest quality products. Their prices beat the retail prices you know and are used to. Competitive prices without compromises to quality & durability. They have delivery services among other top quality services.
you really should check them out.

Based on personal experience, I would advise you to run from that car as fast as your legs can carry you. Spare parts are mostly available but cost an arm and leg. Everything that can go wrong with a car will probably go wrong at some point; from leaking fuel tank to overheating and the terrible terrible suspension/wheel bearing issues. When I had it, I had to budget at least N50k monthly for repairs.

But like i said, personal experience, maybe I was unlucky and got a lemon. All the best either ways, but I wish I had someone back then to advise me to add small money and buy a Lexus RX instead.

Parts are expensive..... my Dad owns one and He spends a lot on maintenance and replacements
