I am complaining that Recall # 21S12 has been unresolved for years now. They have replaced the passenger airbag, but not the Driver side. This is a serious issue and not addressing it in a timely matter puts me and my families safety at risk. In the case of the passenger Airbag, I was offered a loaner vehicle. Now with the Drivers side Airbag recall, I have not been offered the same measure of safety. Thank You, Sincerely, Floyd Baker

DASH LIGHTS FLASH AND CAR LOSES POWER DURING TRAVEL RESULTING IN A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION
May 05, 2021
VEHICLE IN MOTION ON CITY ROAD WHEN VEHICLE ALL OF A SUDDEN MAKES LOUD/HARD CLANK NOISE AND IMMEDIATELY LOSES POWER - ALMOST LIKE IT STARTED TOWING A TRAILER! LOSS OF POWER, WRENCH LIGHT, TPS LIGHT, AIRBAG LIGHT ALL COME ON, SPEEDOMETER STOPS WORKING. PULLED OVER, LOUD/HARD CLANK SOUND WITH EVERY GEAR CHANGE P-2. VEHICLE HAD DISPLAYED NO ISSUES PRIOR TO THIS. DROPPED VEHICLE OFF AT MECHANIC, WHEN HE LOOKED AT IT NEXT MORNING, VEHICLE IS RUNNING PERFECT. I AM GREATLY CONCERNED ABOUT WHAT APPEARS TO BE A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE WITH THIS CAR. THERE ARE MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE TO BE FOUND ALL OVER THE INTERNET WITH NO FIXES KNOWN. FORD NEEDS TO ISSUE A RECALL AND FIX THIS ASAP BEFORE SOMEONE GETS SERIOUSLY HURT OR IS KILLED FROM THE EXTREME LOSS OF POWER THE VEHICLE IS SUFFERING FROM WHEN THIS HAPPENS.

SERVICE BRAKES

Brake pedal is very hard to press, there is a hissing noise sometimes it may sound like a whistle inside the car from the brakes. Took car to mechanic & was advised the brake power booster is bad & that there is a recall on it, however for some reason my car is not included in this recall.........why?
Jul 31, 2023
The booster went out needs replaced and on other sites it said it is recalled
Mar 05, 2023
When braking, the brake petal is hard to push. I traveled about 10 miles the other day and it happened about 20 times so now I'm trying not to drive until Friday when my shop can check the brakes and if I do have to drive I will stay great distance behind other vehicles. The mechanic said it sounds like brake booster problem. I checked online and found that other Ford Edge vehicles are having this problem, but there is no recall.
Jul 05, 2022
Front passenger side brake caliper keeps going bad. We have replaced it 3 different times. No trouble out of driver side only passenger.
Apr 29, 2022
WHEN I PRESS THE BREAKS TO STOP, IT IS HARD TO PRESS, LIKE I'M PUSHING AGAINST AIR AND ON A COMPLETE STOP IT CONTINUES TO MOVE IN MOTION. (THE BREAKS DON'T STOP THE VEHICLE WHEN STATIONARY. IT STARTED 2 DAYS AGO AND I'M SCARED BECAUSE I HAD MY NIECE IN THE CAR AND I ALMOST RAN OFF THE ROAD WHERE AN INCOMING CAR WAS GOING TO HIT ME STRAIGHT ON MY LEFT. IF I BREAK IT ALSO JUMPS THE CAR LIKE IF I WAS HIT FROM BEHIND. IT'S VERY ROUGH.

THE WATER PUMP ON THIS VEHICLE IS LOCATED IN A POSITION THAT REQUIRES A FULL AND EXPENSIVE REMOVAL OF THE ENGINE TO EVEN CHECK ON IT. MANUAL HAS NO WATER PUMP MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE.

BY THAT POINT THE COOLANT HAS ALREADY RUN THROUGH MY ENGINE AND CAUSED IRREVERSIBLE DAMAGE THAT REQUIRES A COMPLETE ENGINE REPLACEMENT. FORD IS AND HAS BEEN AWARE OF THIS ISSUE AND REFUSES TO DO ANYTHING.

While driving my 2007 Ford Edge on the interstate highway, going around 70 MPH, I noticed a wrench appear on my dash. My speedometer also had stopped working and I got the error code “ODO DATA ERROR”.

Sep 13, 2021
TAILLIGHT WAS INOPERATIVE, PASSENGER SIDE, ALONG WITH DIRECTIONAL SIGNAL. THINKING IT WAS A BURNED OUT BULB, I REMOVED THE TAIL LIGHT CONNECTOR FROM THE PLASTIC HOUSING. I NOTICED THAT THE BULB HAD TOTALLY FUZED ITSELF TO THE CONNECTOR. WHILE THE BULB FILAMENTS APPEAR INTACT, THE BULB AND CONNECTOR HAD GENERATED ENOUGH HEAT TO ESSENTIALLY MELT THE BASE OF THE BULB TO THE CONNECTOR INTO ONE UNIT. ODDLY ENOUGH, WHEN LOOKING FOR THE CAUSE OF WHY SO MUCH HEAT WOULD BE GENERATED, I GOOGLED "CAR TAIL LIGHT CONNECTOR AND BULB MELTED". SURPRISE SURPRISE, I WAS DIRECTED TO THE FORD EDGE FORUM WHERE THIS SEEMS TO BE A VERY COMMON COMPLAINT. NATURALLY, I NEEDED TO GET THIS FIXED QUICKLY AND MY HUSBAND WAS GOING TO THE SALVAGE YARD FOR UNRELATED PARTS, SO I ASKED HIM TO SEE IF HE COULD FIND A CONNECTOR, SINCE THIS PARTICULAR ITEM WAS COMMON TO MANY, MANY FORD AND MERCURY VEHICLES. HE FOUND T FORD FOCUS' THAT USED THIS CONNECTOR, AND BOUGHT THEM. OF NOTE, THE TWO CONNECTORS (1 WAS A "SPARE") HE BROUGHT HOME WERE BOTH SHOWING SIGNS OF DISCOLORATION OF THE PLASTIC ON THE CONNECTOR. THE FORUMS SAY FORD HAS NEGATIVE KNOWLEDGE OF THIS, BUT YOU GOTTA WONDER. DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON THE POOR QUALITY OF THE CHEAP PLASTIC RETAINER CLIP USED TO KEEP THE WIRING HARNESS CONNECTED TO THE CONNECTOR. I REMOVED FOUR UNITS. ALL FOUR RETAINER CLIPS BROKE OR DISINTEGRATED. MY FEAR IT THE POTENTIAL OF A FIRE HAZARD AND SIGNIFICANT ELECTRICAL FAILURE AS THIS IS NOT A SIMPLE BULB REPLACEMENT. ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED. I DO HAVE THE BULB IN QUESTION IF YOU NEED ME TO SEND IT IN.
Dec 28, 2019
DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT 60MPH AND SUDDENLY MY SPEEDOMETER AND GAUGES ALL SHUT DOWN. JUST AS FAST AS IT WENT OFF IT CAME BACK ON AGAIN. THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON OCCURRENCE WITH THE FORD EDGE. THERE IS OBVIOUSLY A SEVERE ISSUE WITH THE COMPUTER SYSTEM AND SOMETHING NEEDS FIXED BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED!

I HAVE A 2007 FORD EDGE WITH CONTINENTAL TIRES SIZE P245/60 R18-------104T THIS VEHICLE ONLY HAS 16,000 MILES ON IT AND THE FRONT TIRES HAVE WORN DOWN DRAMATICALLY AND THE BACK TIRES HAVE WORN DOWN ON THE INSIDES ONLY, WHICH WASN'T SEEN UNTIL THE TIRES WERE ROTATED IN SEPTEMBER. NOW THAT THE TIRES HAVE BEEN ROTATED THE TIRES THAT WERE REMOVED FROM THE BACK AND PUT ON THE FRONT ARE NOW WEARING DOWN, LIKE THE ONES THAT WERE IN THE FRONT DID. I HAVE CONTACTED CONTINENTAL TIRE WHO SAYS THE PROBLEM BELONGS TO FORD AND FORD SAYS THE PROBLEM IS THE TIRE COMPANIES PROBLEM.

WE OWN A 2007 FORD EDGE AND DURING OUR TRIP THIS PAST WEEKEND HAD TWO OF THE FOUR VALVE STEMS GO BAD ON US AND CAUSE THE SENSOR TO ACTIVATE. WHEN WE CHECKED EACH TIME WE FOUND THAT THE STEMS HAD "SPLIT" AND AIR WAS COMING OUT CAUSING FLAT TIRES. THE FIRST EVENT WAS ON THE 30TH OF JULY ON OUR WAY TO DESTINATION AND THE SECOND WAS ON THE 2ND OF AUGUST ON OUR WAY BACK HOME. THIS WAS ESPECIALLY FRUSTRATING AS WE WERE IN A NOMANS LAND AREA WITH NO SERVICES AND HAD TO LIMP FOR A FEW HOURS ON THE DONUT SPARE TIRE TO GET TO A TOWN THAT HAD SERVICE. AS A RESULT WE WILL BE HAVING THE OTHER TWO REPLACED TODAY! *TR

Rear turn signal blubs continue to blow out over and over. Last time I went to replace the bulb had fused to housing. I'm afraid it is going to catch fire. Also tired of buying bulbs every few months to replace burned out ones.

I CHECKED THE OTHER SIDE AND IT WAS CHARRED AND MELTED EVEN WORSE THEN THE BULB THAT WASN'T WORKING. THIS IS VERY SCARY AND A SAFETY HAZARD AS IT COULD START A FIRE AND MY CHILD IS IN THE BACK SEAT!

THE MIRRORS ON THE EDGE ARE PLACED SO THAT THEY CONTINUALLY BLOCK ,SIGNIFICANTLY, VISION ON EITHER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE.

THIS VEHICLE HAS A COUPLE OF PROBLEMS I AM CONCERNED ABOUT. FIRST, WHEN YOU ROLL DOWN THE WINDOWS, REACH SPEEDS OF 30+ MILES PER HOUR, THEN TRY TO ROLL THE WINDOWS UP, IT CREATES A TERRIBLE VACUUM PRESSURE INSIDE OF THE CAR. THIS PRESSURE ALWAYS MAKES MY EARS HURT, AND I BELIEVE MAY BE DAMAGING MY EARDRUMS. I FIND IT DISTURBING THAT AS A CONSUMER, I CAN NOT ROLL DOWN THE WINDOWS OF MY CAR IN ACCLIMATE WEATHER, BECAUSE OF THE PRESSURE THAT IS CREATED INSIDE OF THE CAR WHEN I DO SO. ALSO, I DON'T KNOW IF OTHERS HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM, BUT THIS CAR IS A SHOCK HAZARD. I AM CONSTANTLY GETTING SHOCKED EVERY TIME I CLOSE THE DOOR OF THIS CAR. IT IS A CONCERN, AND I ALWAYS WORRY THAT WHEN I GO TO A GAS STATION IT WILL CREATE A SPARK (GOD-FORBID). I HAVE NO CONTACTED FORD MOTOR COMPANY, BUT I HAVE EVERY INTENTION ON DOING SO. RIGHT NOW, I HAVE A LAUNDRY LIST OF ISSUES, BUT NONE AS MAJOR, IN MY OPINION, AS THESE. I THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR TIME. IT IS MY HOPE THAT IF YOU GET ENOUGH OF THESE COMPLAINTS, BECAUSE I REFUSE TO BELIEVE I AM THE ONLY ONE, SOME CHANGES WILL BE MADE. HOPEFULLY, NO ONE WILL HAVE TO SUSTAIN ANY EAR DAMAGE OR SPARK A FIRE, BEFORE THESE ISSUES ARE RESOLVED. *TR

2007 FORD EDGE. HISTORY: REGULAR SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE PERFORMED ALWAYS, GARAGE KEPT, TAKEN WELL CARE OF. MILEAGE AT THIS TIME IS 145K. ***DRIVING ALONG (IN TOWN) WHEN I NOTICED THE EDGE WAS IDLING REALLY LOW (NOTE: 2 WEEKS AFTER SCHEDULED OIL CHANGE, INSPECTION AND NEW BATTERY)-ALL OF A SUDDEN HEARD THIS TERRIBLE CLANKING NOISE. IT SOUNDED LIKE THE WHOLE CAR WAS FALLING APART. I PULLED OVER IN TO A PARKING LOT, SHUT THE CAR OFF. TRIED TO CRANK IT AGAIN AND IT WOULDN'T CRANK-FINALLY DID AFTER SEVERAL TRIES (STILL MAKING THIS TERRIBLE SOUND). **NO WARNING LIGHTS, NO FLUCTUATING IN GAGES---NOTHING. WE HAD THE EDGE TOWED TO OUR FORD DEALERSHIP AND WERE TOLD THE WATER PUMP WENT BAD AND THE ENGINE WAS DESTROYED. OUR OIL WAS FULL OF WATER/COOLANT--IT LOOKED LIKE MUDDY WATER. WHAT? HOW? NO WARNING, NO SIGNS? AFTER MUCH RESEARCH WE ARE FINDING THAT THE WATER PUMP IS INSIDE THE ENGINE, THEREFORE IF THE WATER PUMP "GOES" THERE ARE NO EXTERNAL SIGNS OF LEAKAGE---IT'S KINDLY LEAKING IN TO YOUR ENGINE AND DESTROYING IT. THIS LITERALLY HAPPENED IN A MATTER OF MINUTES. YES, THIS IS SAFETY ISSUE--IT LEFT ME STRANDED AND NOW I'M WITHOUT A VEHICLE FOR ANOTHER WEEK OR SO WHILE A NEW ENGINE IS BEING ORDERED AN INSTALLED. I CAN'T BELIEVE FORD HASN'T ADDRESSED THIS "DESIGN" ISSUE WITH ALL THE COMPLAINTS I'VE READ THUS FAR. THIS DESERVES A RECALL AND AT THE VERY LEAST IT DESERVES FORD'S ATTENTION TO BE REDESIGNED. RESEARCH ALSO SHOWS THIS IS NOT JUST A FORD EDGE PROBLEM---IT'S OTHER FORD MAKES AS WELL. THIS IS NOW AN $8000 "FIX". PLEASE HAVE THIS LOOKED IN TO ON THE CONSUMER'S BEHALF.

MY BLINKER LIGHT STARTED BLINKING REALLY FAST AND I KNEW THAT THAT INDICTATED THAT I HAD A BULB OUT. I SAW THAT IT WAS THE REAR LEFT AND PURCHASED A NEW BULB FOR IT. I SEARCHED ONLINE FOR HOW TO CHANGE THE BULB PROPERLY AND FOUND SEVERAL VIDEOS FOR HOW TO DO IT BUT THEY ALL SHOWED THAT THE BULB SOCKET HAD OVERHEATED AND WAS BURNT. SURE ENOUGH, WHEN I OPENED UP MINE TO CHANGE THE BULB, THE SOCKET THAT HOLDS THE BULB IS BURNT AND THE THE BULB WAS PARTIALLY MELTED INTO THE SOCKET. I CHECKED OTHER SIDE AND IT IS THE SAME THING. THE SOCKET IS BURNT AND CHARRED AND THE BULB IS STUCK IN IT. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY AN OVERHEATING ISSUE AND I'M CONCERNED FOR THE SAFETY OF THE VEHICLE.
Mar 28, 2018
THE REAR TAIL LIGHT SOCKET ON THE PASSENGER SIDE IS EXTREMELY CHARRED. THE LIGHT BULB ON THAT SIDE HAS FAILED 5 TIMES OVER 7 YEARS, CLEARLY FROM OVERHEATING, CAUSING LOSS OF BRAKE LIGHT AND TURN LIGHT. THE OTHER SIDE HAS NEVER FAILED BUT SHOWS EARLY SIGNS OF OVERHEATING.
Feb 18, 2018
WHEN OPERATING THE TURN SIGNALS IN EITHER DIRECTION THE REAR LIGHT WOULD NOT WORK INTERMITTENTLY AT FIRST, AND THEN PERMANENTLY. UPON PULLING THE REAR BULB HOUSING, I NOTICED THE TURN SIGNAL LIGHT SOCKET WAS BURNT IN APPEARANCE. OPON TRYING TO REMOVE THE BULBS, ONE OF THE RETAINING TABS ON ONE SIDE BROKE OFF. INSIDE THE SOCKETS (BOTH SIDES) WERE FULL OF WHITISH CORROSION. THE MAIN ISSUE HERE IS TWOFOLD: IF YOU LOOK ONLINE ON THE FORD EDGE FORUM, YOU WILL SEE MANY, MANY OTHER PEOPLE HAVE HAD THE EXACT SAME ISSUE. SECONDLY, THIS PRESENTS A FIRE AND DRIVING HAZARD. KEEP IN MIND MY WIFE'S CAR DOES NOT EVEN HAVE 70,000 MILES ON IT YET AND IS GARAGE KEPT. SHE DOES NOT RIDE THE BRAKES AND TURN SIGNALS ARE USED AS OFTEN AS NEEDED...HAZARDS HARDLY EVER USED. I'LL HAVE TO PAY FOR 2 NEW SOCKETS AND BULBS WITH NO GUARANTEE IT WON'T HAPPEN AGAIN.

PLEASE LET ME KNOW SOME FEEDBACK ON THIS DUE TO FORD HAS REDESIGNED WHEEL BEARINGS, HOWEVER IS STATING THERE IS NO RECALL ON THESE, AND REPAIRS ARE PASTED OFF TO THE CUSTOMER (2ND TIME FOR ME AND OTHERS VIA GOOGLE)- I FEEL THIS IS A BAD DESIGN FROM FORD, AND RECALL NEEDS TO BE DONE. *TR

MY CAR WAS IN A CONSTANT STATE OF SHAKING AND SPUTTERING AND INCREASED WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES. THERE WAS SOMETHING SIGNIFICANTLY WRONG AND IT WAS PRETTY SCARY TO EXPERIENCE PARTICULARLY WITH 3 SMALL CHILDREN. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO MY AUTOMOTIVE SERVICE COMPANY WHERE THE CAR'S SOFTWARE SYSTEM DISPLAYED CODES INDICATING TWO IGNITION CODES FAILED. SUBSEQUENTLY, THE SERVICE PROVIDER REPLACED ALL THE SPARK PLUGS AND TWO COILS. THE CAR WAS NOT FIXED AND IT WAS FURTHER DETERMINED THAT THE PCM BOARD IS SENDING EXTREMELY HIGH CURRENT TO THE IGNITION COILS AND COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ENGINE FIRE. THIS IS VERY DISTRESSING. FORD HAS ISSUED AN INTERNAL TSB ACKNOWLEDGING THIS ISSUE BUT HAS NOT ENACTED A RECALL. THE ESTIMATED COST TO REPLACE THE PCM, SPARK PLUGS AND COILS (6) IS APPROXIMATELY $3,000. ADDITIONALLY IN MY RESEARCH THERE IS A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT THAT HAS BEEN FILED BY A GROUP OF FORD OWNERS. *TR

I FILED THE ORIGINAL COMPLAINT (10680995) ON FEBRUARY 3RD, BUT I WANTED TO EDIT OR UPDATE IT, BUT COULDN'T FIND THE WAY, SO I AM TAKING THE LIBERTY TO POST A NEW ONE. IT HAS BEEN 2 AND A HALF MONTHS SINCE THE INCIDENT AND AS A DISGRACE IT HAS NOT BEEN POSSIBLE FOR THE FORD DEALER IN CENTRAL AMERICA TO GET THE COMPUTER MODULE PART. CAN YOU IMAGINE THIS AMOUNT OF TIME WITHOUT YOUR VEHICLE, SPECIALLY IF IT IS YOUR WORKING TOOL? THE FOLLOWING WAS MY STATEMENT IN THE FIRST REPORT: "I HAVE A 2007 FORD EDGE WITH VERY LOW MILEAGE TO DATE. THIS IS USUALLY MY FAMILY CAR, DRIVEN BY MY WIFE. WE LIVE IN GUATEMALA AND DROVE TO A HOUSE ON THE BEACH, THAT IS ABOUT 100 MILES AWAY. ON JANUARY FIRST WHEN WE WERE RETURNING I STARTED THE CAR AND NOTICED A SHAKE AND SPUTTER, AND I THOUGHT THAT IT WAS PROBABLY A DEFECTIVE SPARK PLUG. I MANAGED TO DRIVE OUT OF WHERE WE WERE AND AS SOON AS WE GOT TO THE MAIN HIGHWAY I HAD TO STOP AND CALL FOR A TOW. THE SHAKING AND SPUTTERING WERE FRIGHTENING. THE SHOP I TOOK IT TO SAYS THAT AT LEAST 3 IGNITION COILS NEED TO BE REPLACED AND ARE NOT SURE IF THE PCM ALSO HAS TO BE REPLACED. UNFORTUNATELY, SINCE THERE ARE PARTS STOCK PROBLEM HERE, I HAD TO WAIT ALMOST A MONTH TO GET THE PARTS AND NOW THAT I HAVE THEM (THE COILS) I STILL HAVE TO WAIT TO SEE WHAT THE REAL PROBLEM IS. I HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALER IN THE REGION TO SEE WHAT CAN BE DONE. I HAD TO REPORT THIS AS IT IS NOT A UNIQUE PROBLEM TOBUYERS IN THE US, ALSO ABROAD". SO FAR, I DO NOT KNOW WHEN THE PART WILL BE AVAILABLE. LAST FRIDAY IT WAS STILL IN BACKORDER IN THE FORD PLANT, OR SO THEY SAY. I DONT KNOW EITHER HOW MUCH IS GOING TO COST, BUT AT THIS RATE I JUST WANT TO GET RID OF THAT PIECE OF JUNK. I HAVE PROVIDED A FLORIDA CONTACT AS THERE IS NO ACCESS TO OTHER COUNTRIES. *TR

YOU CAN HEAR THE FAN CLICK ON HARD WHEN YOUR IDLING AT A RED LIGHT. IF I ROLL THE WINDOWS DOWN, THE AIR WILL APPEAR TO GET COOL. WHEN YOU PICKUP SPEED WITH THE WINDOWS DOWN THE AIR BEGINS TO GET COLD, BUT ONCE I CLOSE THE WINDOWS THE AIR STOPS BECOMING COOL AND HOT AIR BLOWS. IT'S BEEN EXTREMELY HOT AND I CAN HAVE A HEAT STROKE AND I HAVE HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE. I HAVE TO ARRIVE TO WORK AT 7AM WHILE IT'S COOL OUTSIDE AND LEAVE AFTER 7PM WHEN THE SUN BEGINS TO GO DOWN.

SINCE HAVING OUR FIRST BABY 8 MONTHS AGO ON THIS LATEST CAR TRIP WE DECIDED TO USE OUR CARGO ROOF RACK FOR THE FIRST TIME. THIS ROOF RACK IS THE RACK THAT CAME ON THE FORD EDGE FROM THE MANUFACTURER. WE DECIDED TO BUY A SMALL 36"X30"X18" CARGO BAG (CLOTH) TO PUT A FEW ITEMS IN & CARRY ON THE ROOF. FIVE MINUTES INTO THE TRIP ON THE HIGHWAY IN THE HOV LANE WE HEARD A LOUD SNAP NOISE & THE ENTIRE ROOF RACK BROKE OFF WITH OUR CARGO BAG & WENT FLYING OFF BEHIND US IN EARLY AM RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC NEARLY CAUSING A CAR ACCIDENT. NO SHOULDER ON THE HIGHWAY MY HUSBAND AND I HAD TO GET A POLICE OFFICER TO HELP US BLOCK THE HOV LANE SO WE COULD GET THE CARGO BAG & BROKEN ROOF RACK. THE CARGO HAD NO MORE THAN 60 LBS. WORTH INSIDE SO WE KNOW WE DIDN'T EXCEED ANY WEIGHT LIMIT. I MYSELF @ 130LBS & 5'2" COULD PICK UP THE CARGO BAG MYSELF. WE DROVE STRAIGHT TO FORD DEALERSHIP WHERE WE WAITED THREE HOURS TO HEAR THAT FORD WOULD NOT REPLACE THE ROOF RACK BECAUSE IT WAS DAMAGED BY OUTSIDE CAUSES. I SHOULD MENTION THAT MY EDGE IS STILL COVERED UNDER THE 36,000.00 MILE BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY. TO MAKE MATTERS WORSE THERE ISN'T A STITCH OF INFORMATION IN THE OWNERS MANUAL AS TO WHAT THE ROOF RACK WEIGHT LIMITS ARE OR HOW CARGO SHOULD BE STRAPPED TO IT. I WILL BE FILING AN APPEAL COMPLAINT TODAY & IF I HAVE TO I WILL GO STRAIGHT TO ALLAN MULALLY MYSELF. I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT FORD WOULD NOT STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT ESPECIALLY WHILE UNDER WARRANTY THAT COULD HAVE CAUSED A FATAL ACCIDENT. EVEN MORE DESPICABLY TREAT A FAMILY SERVING THIS COUNTRY WHO PUT THEIR TRUST IN THE FORD MOTOR VEHICLE COMPANY & THEIR "WARRANTY" COMMITMENT SO POORLY. WE HAD STRONGLY CONSIDERED BEING FORD OWNERS FOR LIFE, ESPECIALLY AS OUR FAMILY GREW BUT TO HAVE TO PUT UP A FIGHT OVER A ROOF RACK UNDER WARRANTY HAS CHANGED OUR MINDS. *TR

AFTER STOPPING AT A STOP SIGN, WHEN I PRESSED THE ACCELERATOR MY 2007 FORD EDGE WOULD NOT GO FORWARD (ALTHOUGH THE ENGINE CONTINUED TO RUN). I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND TRIED SEVERAL MORE TIMES UNSUCCESSFULLY. NOT KNOWING WHAT ELSE TO DO I PRESSED HARD ON THE ACCELERATOR AND IT STARTED AGAIN. THAT HAPPENED 6 MONTHS AGO. IN THE PAST 3 WEEKS IT HAS HAPPENED 2 MORE TIMES. TODAY, IT TOOK A DIFFERENT TURN. THE CAR SHIFTED WITH DIFFICULTY, THE WRENCH ICON LIT UP ON THE DASHBOARD AND THEN RODE SLUGGISHLY TIL I GOT HOME (ABOUT 4 MILES). I LEFT THE CAR IN MY DRIVEWAY FOR 30 MINUTES - WHEN I TURNED IT BACK ON THE WRENCH ICON WAS OFF AND THE CAR RAN FINE. UPON A SEARCH ON THE INTERNET I HAVE FOUND I AM NOT ALONE WITH THIS SAFETY ISSUE. I AM ALSO NOT ALONE WITH GETTING NO HELP FROM FORD. I WOULD GLADLY HAVE IT REPAIRED BUT MY DEALER APPEARS CLUELESS AND SAID THEY CANNOT FIX IT IF IT DOESN'T HAPPEN WHEN IT'S AT THEIR GARAGE. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY PROBLEM AND FEELS LIKE PLAYING ROULETTE WITH MY LIFE. I BELIEVE I HAVE BEEN LUCKY SO FAR BUT WHO KNOWS WHAT HAPPENS IF I'M ON A HIGHWAY WHEN THE EDGE DECIDES TO STOP. PLEASE HELP! *TR

WHILE DRIVING ON INTERSTATE AT A FIXED SPEED OF 70MPH, THE CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED TO 80 MPH, THEN SLOWED DOWN, AND REACCELERATED. THE RPM NEEDLE WENT OVER TO 4000. I HAD TO TURN CRUISE CONTROL OFF. IT HAS OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES, BUT I HAVE NOTICED THAT DURING WINTER MONTHS, IT ISN'T AN ISSUE, BUT WHEN THE WEATHER IS WARM, THE PROBLEM BECOMES PERSISTENT. DEALERSHIP COULD NOT FIND PROBLEM SO THEY RESET THE ELECTRONIC SYSTEM. STILL HAD PROBLEM. *TR

TURNED ON CAR, ONCE WE PUT IT IN DRIVE, COULD GET NO FORWARD MOTION WITH ACCELERATION, MINIMAL FORWARD MOTIONS WHEN WE FLOORED IT. PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE AND THERE WAS A HEAVY KNOCK AND FELT LIKE THE ENGINE FELL OUT OF THE CAR. WE TURNED OFF THE CAR, WAITED A BIT AND TRIED AGAIN AND IT DROVE NORMALLY. THIS HAS HAPPENED A DOZEN OR SO TIMES, BUT RECENTLY OCCURRED AFTER I HAD BEEN DRIVING NORMALLY AND CAME TO A STOP AT A LIGHT. I TRIED TO ACCELERATE WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN BUT COULDN'T GO. I PUT THE CAR IN LOW GEAR AND IT MOVED SLOWLY FORWARD, THEN AFTER A BIT I SHIFTED IT BACK UP TO NORMAL AND THE GEAR ENGAGED AGAIN. SCARY IF YOU CAN'T MOVE WHEN NEEDED! I AM ALSO EXPERIENCING A CHUGGING WHEN I ACCELERATE TO ABOUT 40MPH... IT STUTTERS.. WHO KNOWS WHAT THAT IS! I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP AND EXPLAINED MY PROB. AT ABOUT 55000 MILES... WHILE STILL UNDER WARRANTY... AND THEY TOLD ME THEY COULDN'T FIND A PROBLEM. I'M SURE THAT FORD KNOWS ABOUT THESE ISSUES. THE DECENT THING TO DO WOULD TO HAVE A RECALL AND FIX IT!! NISSAN DID FOR MY MURANO. MAYBE I'LL JUST GO BACK TO A NISSAN. *TR

P0301 misfire in the engine and P0201 fuel injecter both should be recalled on all 2007 Ford edges as me and another lady both wrecked hitting a small poles and the business owners was nice and said to make it home safely since there was no damage. I have done plenty of research and Ford is refusing to do any recalls on the spark plugs in the engine and the fuel injecter. Please recalls those so no one gets seriously hurt from it.

MY CAR WAS RUNNING ROUGH USING MORE GAS GOT A COIL CODE FOR MY NUMBER 1 COIL.BCHANGED PLUGS ETC.. STILL RUNNING BAD. TOOK IT TO FORD PUT ON THERE COMPUTER AND IT CAME BACK AS THE PCM. WHICH CAN CAUSE YOUR CAR TO CATCH FIRE TO STOP SUDDENKY IN MIDDLE OF ROAD USE WAY MORE GAS RUIN ALL OF YOUR PLUGS AND COILS AGAIN. WHY WOULD FORD NOT FIX THIS PROBLEM?WHY IS THIS A PROBLEM?WHAT IF SOMEONE DIES? THEN WHAT? I HAVE REICIEPTS UPON RECIIEPTS. WHY ARE WE THE CONSUMERS THE ONE WHO HAS TO PAY FOR YOUR FAULTS. I USE MY CAR FOR WORK. I TAKE CARE OF MY CARS AND DRIVE THEM LIKE A LADY SHOULD. NO ROUGH BUSINESS IN MY CAR. NOW I CANT DRIVE CAR BECAUSE YOUR PCM NEW IS 1000 . THIS WILL FOREVER DISCOURAGE ME FROM BUYING ANOTHER FORD. I DONT UNDERSTAND HOW YOU CAN JUST IGNORE WHAT IS GOING ON WITH ALOT OF FORD EDGES. ONE WOULD THINK THAT YOUR REPUTATION WOULD BE IMPORTANT TO YOU. IT IS NOT THE DRIVER OR OWNERS FAULT IT IS WHOMEVER MADE THESE COMPUTERS. IT HAPPENS TO EDGES WITH LOW TO HIGH MILES. IT DOESNT MATTER. ITS FAULTY COMPUTER THAT YOU NEED TO CARE OF.

NO ONE HAS PARTS TO FIX THE RECALL FOR THE AIRBAG. I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR MORE THAN A YEAR TO HAVE THE PROBLEM FIXED. MY TRANSMISSION SHUDDERS AT 40 MILES PER HOUR AND 75 MILES PER HOUR. THE PROBLEM STARTED 10 MONTHS AGO AND SEEMS TO BE WORSE. I'VE LOOKED ONLINE AND THIS SEEMS TO BE THE MAJOR COMPLAINT WITH THESE VEHICLES. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THIS ISSUE TO FIX THE PROBLEM.

AFTER DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 20 MILES AT AN AVERAGE SPEED OF 45 MPH I EXITED OFF A VERY BUSY HIGHWAY (EXIT 1, RTE. 93N IN NEW HAMPSHIRE). UPON SLOWING, I FELT A SKIP AND THE CAR BECAME UNRESPONSIVE TO MY ATTEMPT TO ACCELERATE TO COMPLETE THE EXIT . AN ODOMETER ERROR APPEARED ON MY DASH ALONG WITH THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT AND THE REPAIR WRENCH SYMBOL. IF I HAD BEEN TRAVELING ON THE OPEN HIGHWAY IN THE KIND OF TRAFFIC I WAS EXPERIENCING, I PROBABLY WOULD HAVE BEEN IN A HIGH SPEED ACCIDENT. AFTER SHUTTING DOWN THE ENGINE FOR 30 MINUTES, I RESTARTED MY VEHICLE AND RETURNED HOME WITHOUT INCIDENT. THIS INCIDENT OCCURRED WITHOUT WARNING. TO DATE MY EDGE HAS BEEN VERY RELIABLE. I HAVE ENJOYED THE EDGE'S PERFORMANCE; BUT, I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED THAT THIS PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED TO NUMEROUS OTHER EDGE OWNERS. I AM HOPING THIS APPARENT DEFECT IS RESOLVED AND A RECALL IS INITIATED BEFORE SOMEONE IS SERIOUSLY INJURED. *TR

AFTER PULLING OUT ONTO A HIGHWAY, MY CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. THE ENGINE DIDN'T STOP BUT PRESSING GAS DID NOT HELP. WAS FORCED TO COAST TO SIDE, CAR SHUDDERED, THEN STALLED. AFTER WAITING A FEW, CAR STARTED. WAS ABLE TO DRIVE IT A MILE TO A NEARBY REPAIR SHOP. WE WERE CALLED AND ADVISED IT WAS A TRANSMISSION ISSUE AND DUE TO MILES ON THE CAR, IT SHOULD BE TOWED TO THE NEAREST DEALERSHIP (UNDER WARRANTY). FORD SERVICE COULD NOT REPRODUCE THE ISSUE. WE WERE TOLD NOTHING WAS WRONG & TO PICK IT UP. PRIOR TO PICKING UP, WE FOUND A TSB THAT DESCRIBED WHAT WE HAD BUT WERE TOLD THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG. MAY 2013, CAR DID SAME BUT THIS TIME, THE WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON. TOWED (TO ANOTHER FORD SERVICE DEALER),& ISSUE WAS FOUND. REPAIR MADE. NOT SURPRISINGLY, ISSUE WAS SAME TSB WE PULLED IN 2011. 7 MONTHS LATER, CAR SHUDDERED, & STALLED AGAIN. ONLY DIFFERENCE WITH THIS OCCURRENCE IS NOW THE ENGINE DIED. TOWED BACK TO DEALER. WAS INFORMED IT WAS THE PCM OR MAIN COMPUTER WHICH CAUSED THE IGNITION COILS TO BURN UP. SO, IN SHORT, OWNING THIS CAR FOR 2 YEARS, HAVING TOWED 3 TIMES FOR THE SAME ISSUE, ALL IN 3 EXTREMELY UNSAFE CONDITIONS, HAS LEFT ME WITH NO CHOICE BUT TO FILE A COMPLAINT. THIS COMPUTER SOFTWARE ISSUE IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN AND BASED ON OTHER COMMENTS FOUND ONLINE, FORD IS NOT WILLING TO TAKE NECESSARY PRECAUTIONS TO PREVENT WHAT COULD BE A SADDENING FATAL SITUATION. THIS CAR IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AND THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT FORD IS NOT COOPERATIVE IN RESOLVING THE PROBLEM. IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE YET NO RECALL HAS BEEN MADE. SO HEARTBREAKING TO SEE SO MANY THAT HAVE HAD THIS SAME PROBLEM AS ME AND KNOW THAT NOTHING IS BEING DONE. I AM PAYING FOR THIS REPAIR BUT WILL TURN AROUND AND SELL THE CAR. WON'T BE MY DEATH! NEVER WILL I PURCHASE A FORD VEHICLE. THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY IS MY UTMOST CONCERN AND SHOULD ALSO BE FORD'S BUT APPARENTLY IS NOT. THANK YOU. *TR

I FLOORED IT AND THE RPM'S SHOT UP TO OVER 4,000 BUT MY SPEED STAYED AT AROUND 70. I TAPPED THE BRAKES AND THE RPMS DROPPED TO RIGHT ABOVE 0 AND MY TRUCK STARTED SLOWING WAY DOWN QUICK AND I TRIED GIVING IT MORE GAS BUT WOULDN'T GO. THEN IT STARTED SHAKING AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. LUCKILY I WAS ONLY IN THE 2ND LANE FROM OUTSIDE SHOULDER AND WAS ABLE TO MANEUVER MY TRUCK TO THE SHOULDER AND TURN IT OFF TO WAIT FOR THE TOW TRUCK. HAD MY MECHANIC CHECK IT OUT AND HE SAID THE COMPUTER HAS MALFUNCTIONED (POSSIBLY COMPLETELY GONE OUT - WAITING ON HIM TO CHECK IT OUT TODAY) AND CAUSED THE #4 CYLINDER NOT TO HAVE ANY POWER AND THAT COIL IS BURNED. I HAVE NO WARRANTY ON MY TRUCK AS I BOUGHT IT A LITTLE OVER 2YRS AGO AS CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED. CALLED THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT AND TOLD THEM THERE WAS A TSB ISSUED FOR THIS AND THEY ACTED DUMB AND SAID THERE HAVE BEEN NO REPORTED INCIDENTS OF THIS HAPPENING - THEY ARE AWARE OF A THROTTLE ISSUE BUT NOT WHAT I DESCRIBED WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMING ON (SUPPOSEDLY IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE WRENCH LIGHT). *TR

DRIVING DOWN INTERSTATE HIGHWAY, SPEEDOMETER DROPS TO ZERO THEN DASH LIGHTS ALL COME ON. GET OFF HIGHWAY PULL OVER AND CAR DOES NOT MOVE. WAIT ABOUT 20 MINUTES, PUT CAR IN D, HEAR LOUD BANG, CAR LUNGES FORWARD A LITTLE THEN DRIVES NORMALLY. SECOND TIME IT HAPPENED WAS ON HIGHWAY AT @60MPH WHEN SAME THING HAPPENS, GET OFF HIGHWAY AND STOP AT 2ND RED LIGHT WHEN THE CAR DOES NOT MOVE AT ALL. LET CAR SIT FOR @10 MIN. THEN IT STARTS GOING @10MPH, AFTER ABOUT 1 MILE RESUMES NORMAL OPERATION. HAVE BROUGHT TO LOCAL FORD DEALER AND HAD 2 SENSORS REPLACED ALONG WITH A TRANSMISSION FLUID EXCHANGE BUT NOW TODAY IT HAPPENED AGAIN WHEN I STOPPED AT BUSY BACK ROAD INTERSECTION THEN TRIED TO RESUME SPEED THE VEH. WOULD NOT MOVE. E-MAILED LOCAL FORD DEALER TO LET THEM KNOW THAT ISSUE WAS HAPPENING ONCE AGAIN AFTER SENSORS WERE REPLACED. PRIOR TO FORD ALSO HAD SEARS LOOK AT VEH. WHERE THEY DETERMINED IT WAS A SENSOR BUT COULD NOT DETERMINE WHICH ONE. NOW THAT THE VEHICLE IS BACK TO ME IT ALSO SEEMS TO HAVE ALOT OF HESITATION ON WANTING TO GO. THIS VEHICLE HAS NEVER SEEMED TO BE THE BEST TRANSMISSION AND I HAVE A BIG CONCERN ABOUT HOW MANY OTHER PEOPLE HAVE SIMILAR ISSUES WITH THIS VEHICLE. I WONDER WHAT WOULD HAPPEN TO SOMEBODY WHO KEEPS DRIVING IT WITHOUT GETTING OFF THE ROAD? I AM CONCERNED FOR THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY, MYSELF, OTHERS WHO OWN THIS VEHICLE, AND OTHERS ON THE ROADWAY AROUND THESE VEHICLES WHEN THERE IS A PROBLEM. THE POSTS I KEEP SEEING ALL REFLECT THE SAME ISSUE AND ALL TOO OFTEN THEY ARE TOLD THAT THEY CANNOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE, WILL IT TAKE A MAJOR ACCIDENT OR DEATH FOR THIS CONCERN TO BE ADDRESSED? A VEHICLE SHOULD NOT KEEP STOPPING OR PRODUCING LOUD BANGS AFTER IT STOPS MOVING AND I THINK THERE APPEARS TO BE ENOUGH EVIDENCE FROM ENOUGH PEOPLE WHO HAVE VOICED THEIR ISSUES WITH THIS PROBLEM TO WARRANT IMMEDIATE ACTION ON THIS MATTER.

HOWEVER WHEN I PUT THE VEHICLE INTO REVERSE THE TRANSMISSION BEGAN TO CLUNK VIOLENTLY! I THEN SWITCHED TO DRIVE AND AGAIN IT CLUNKED VIOLENTLY! I RECYCLED THE IGNITION AGAIN AND PUT IT INTO REVERSE AGAIN CLUNKING VIOLENTLY. I AGAIN RECYCLED THE IGNITION AND PUT INTO REVERSE THE VEHICLE TRANS CLUNKED MOVING BACKWARDS. I THEN PULLED FORWARD SHIFTING TO DRIVE AGAIN WITH A CLUNK THE VEHICLE MOVED FORWARD AS IF STILL IN HIGHER GEARS. I DROVE ACROSS THE PARKING LOT TO ABOUT 30 MPH AND BRAKED TO A STOP IT DOWN SHIFTED HARD. AFTER THAT THE TRANS WORKED TO GET US HOME, HOWEVER THE CRUISE CONTROL WOULD NOT LIGHT UP ON THE DASH OR WOULD NOT FUNCTION PERIOD. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO HEMBORG FORD IN NORCO, CA TO CHECK WITH 59,175 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. JUST TWO WEEKS EARLIER THE RIGHT REAR AXLE BEARING WAS WINING AND FORD REPLACED THE BEARING

HUB ASSEMBLY WAS "WOBBLING" CAUSING THE PINS TO BREAK AND CAUSED MY BRAKE PADS TO RUIN. *TR

My question is I’m getting ready to buy a 2007 Ford edge for my mother and she’s already put three water pumps on this car and it cost like almost 1000 bucks to do it every time. I don’t even know if it’s worth it but I was just wondering if there’s any recalls on something like that or if it’s something wrong with why it keeps going keeps messing up

# 1. Brakes - There is a known brake issue with these vehicles. The brakes started making a loud hissing noise and we were almost unable to stop the vehicle and ended up in the middle of an intersection. This could have caused an accident and needs to be recalled. There was no warning, messages, or signs before this happened. These are the parts the repair shop and Ford dealership said needed to be replaced: Power Brake Booster, Hydraulic Control Unit, and Master Cylinder. #2 - Transmission - The car began to shake when trying to climb up a small hill and it also started to shake on the interstate. There were no warnings or messages that appeared.

I HAVE REPLACED THE PTU IN MY 07 FORD EDGE A FEW YEARS BACK THAT THE DEALERSHIP THEMSELVES TOLD ME THERE SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALL ON IT BECAUSE OF THE POOR DESIGN FOR $500. NOW I AM HAVING TO REPLACE THE POWER BRAKE BOOSTER BECAUSE I WOULD BE DRIVING AND HEAR A HISSING NOISE WHEN BRAKING OR MY BRAKES WOULD GET REALLY FIRM. WHICH I WAS TOLD THAT THE ORIGINAL OWNER COULD HAVE REPLACED FREE OF CHARGE NOT AS A RECALL, BUT SOMETHING ELSE. THAT IS NOW GOING TO COST $900.00. I DRIVE KIDS THAT I HAVE HAD PRETTY IMPORTANT THINGS FAIL THAT FORD NEVER RECALLED AND IT REALLY MAKES ME CONSIDER INVESTING IN ANOTHER FORD EVER AGAIN. IF SAFETY ISSUES AREN'T ENOUGH TO RECALL. AND IT TOOK THEM YEARS TO REPLACE THE AIR BAGS.

2007 FORD EDGE HAS PTU LEAK, THE TRANSMISSION IS NOT SHIFTING PROPERLY, THE BRAKE LIGHT BULBS ARE CONSTANTLY BLOWING AND MELTING IN THE SOCKET. THE BRAKES SOUND LIKE THEY ARE GRINDING METAL AND THE CD PLAYER DECIDED TO QUIT WORKING TOO. I HAVE READ ONLINE OF OTHERS HAVING ALL OF THESE EXACT SAME PROBLEMS. THE PTU AND TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS SHOULD NOT BE SOMETHING THAT THE OWNER SHOULD HAVE TO PAY TO HAVE CORRECTED WHEN IT IS CLEARLY A DESIGN FLAW FROM THE MANUFACTURER. I AM A SINGLE MOTHER AND STILL MAKING PAYMENTS ON THIS CAR AND CANNOT AFFORD TO PAY THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO HAVE THEIR DESIGN FLAW REPAIRED!! WHEN IN MOTION THE TRANSMISSION ACTS AS THOUGH IT DOESN'T KNOW WHEN TO SHIFT. IT KIND OF FEELS LIKE I AM IN A MANUAL AND HAVEN'T CHANGED GEARS WHEN I AM SUPPOSED TO AND IF I DON'T PUSH THE CLUTCH IN IT WILL STALL OUT. BUT INSTEAD THIS IS AN AUTOMATIC BEHAVING THAT WAY AND INSTEAD OF A CLUTCH I HAVE TO GIVE IT MORE GAS TO GET IT TO DOWNSHIFT OR IT ACTS LIKE IT IS GOING TO STALL. THIS IS A PROBLEM GOING 20 OR BELOW AS WELL AS 55 OR ABOVE, IT ALSO FEELS LIKE THE DRIVESHAFT IS VIBRATING THE WHOLE CAR WHEN IT DOES THIS. IT STARTED OUT BEING INTERMITTENT BUT NOW IT IS A DAILY OCCURRENCE, BUT IT IS ALL I HAVE TO DRIVE TO WORK SO I DEAL WITH IT. IT NEEDS TO BE RECALLED!!

WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET AND ON A STATE ROAD TRANSMISSION WILL ACT AND SOUND LIKE IT IS SLIPPING OR NOT ENGAGING IN GEAR AND SOMETIMES WILL ONLY WORK IN REVERSE.WHEN PROBLEM OCCURS VEHICLE WILL LOSE ALL POWER AND ENGINE WILL REV UP BUT VEHICLE WILL NOT MOVE. I HAVE HAD IT TOWED TO DEALER AND HAVE TAKEN IT IN TO DEALER, THEY SAY THEY CANNOT DUPLICATE THE THE PROBLEM. THEY ALSO TOLD ME THAT WHEN IT HAPPENS I NEED TO PULL OVER SOMEWHERE SAFE AND SHUT THE CAR OFF AND LET THE "COMPUTER/ SENSORS " RESET AND THAT WILL "TAKE CARE" OF THE PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM IS GETTING PROGRESSIVELY WORSE AS TIME GOES ON. I AM AFRAID IF THIS HAPPENS IN TRAFFIC SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET SERIOUSLY HURT OR KILLED AS THERE IS NO POWER TO GET OFF THE ROAD AND OUT OF TRAFFIC

THE TRANSMISSION FEELS LIKE IT IS IN NEUTRAL. IT JERKS LIKE SOMEONE HAS RAN INTO YOUR VEHICLE WITH THEIR VEHICLE. SEVERAL WARNING LIGHTS COME ON. SPEEDOMETER GOES TO ZERO. IF YOU COME TO A STOP, YOU MAY NOT GET GOING AGAIN. HAD THIS CHECKED OUT AND REPLACED A SENSOR COSTING ME $425.00 AND LESS THAN 2 WEEKS LATER, PROBLEM OCCURS AGAIN. HAD THIS CHECKED OUT AND NOW THEY ARE HOLLERING ANOTHER SENSOR HAS WENT BAD AND THIS ONE IS GOING TO COST $600.00. DID NOT HAVE THIS ONE FIXED!!

I WAS TRAVELING AROUND 40 MPH ON A STATE HIGHWAY WHEN SPUTTERING AND VIBRATION ISSUES STARTED WITH 2007 FORD EDGE AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. STILL DROVE VEHICLE TO MY MECHANIC WHICH STATED COIL BURNED OUT AND SENT SURGE OF POWER TO THE PCM. MECHANIC STATED DESIGN OF PCM WOULDN'T STOP THE FIRING OF COIL AND NOT TO DRIVE VEHICLE ANY FURTHER OR IT WILL BURN TO THE GROUND. MECHANIC STATED ONLY THE FORD DEALERSHIP CAN INSTALL A NEW ONE AND REST THE CAR TO GET IT RUNNING. TOWED VEHICLE TO FORD DEALERSHIP WHO STATED THEY HAVE A TSB ISSUED FOR THIS PROBLEM AND THEY WILL NEED TO REPLACE THE PCM AND ALL 6 COILS BECAUSE THEY HAVE ALL MELTED. FORD DEALERSHIP STATED THIS WAS AN ON GOING PROBLEM DUE TO A FAULTY DESIGN OF THE PCM THAT WHEN A COIL BURNS OUT (COMMON WEAR AND TEAR AND $100 TO $200 FIX) THE PCM DOESN'T STOP FIRING TO THE COILS WHICH COULD CAUSE THE CAR TO CATCH FIRE. ESTIMATE TO FIX THE PCM AND ALL SIX COILS WAS $2,958. REASON FOR COMPLAINT - I UNDERSTAND WEAR AND TEAR ON A VEHICLE, BUT DUE TO A DESIGN ISSUE IN THE FORD/MERCURY/LINCOLN PCM, IT CAUSED EXTENSIVE DAMAGE AND REPAIR TO THE CAR AND POTENTIAL TO BURN TO THE GROUND. $100 FIX WITH PROPER DESIGN AND NOW $2,958 DUE TO PCM ISSUE. I AM REQUESTING THIS ISSUE TO BE REVIEWED FOR REIMBURSEMENT BY THE MANUFACTURER OR RECALL ISSUED. THANKS YOU FOR YOUR TIME.

My 2007 Ford Edge lost the use of my accelerometer pedal without any warning, while driving. The pedal collapsed to the floor. The engine continued to run. A wrench image appeared on the dashboard. After towing to service station the gas pedal worked again. No codes could be determined during TWO diagnostic procedures. After the first mechanics could not determine or diagnose a problem, nor replicate the problem, I had it towed to my local Ford Dealership. Their diagnosis claimed no indication of an issue on their diagnostic computer either. I’m afraid to drive my car.

My alternator keep draining my new batteries from to much electrical pull and turns off all my digital dash and says my brake system is in failure and there is something wrong with the suspension in the front end even though I have had it fixed and the same problem has returned . I had my battery explode. The transmission jerks whenever it shifts and the transmission fluid is full and I maintain it on a regular basis. It is driven in town only. I am scared of it catching on fire now since I just saw that it is still has a recall that has not been repaired and I bought it used and I was told all recalls were taken care of. I have my grandchildren in this vehicle weekly. I want to see about getting this looked at and repaired correctly. I fear for my safety.

And then it started having warning issue lights and then I started having problems with steering and holding in the road and it begain popping when I turn the vehicle to the left . And then the recall with the fuel tank I am scared of the vehicle and I do carry children in it. The used car lot I got it from will not do an inspection on it. So I would like to have it looked at and see if does need to be fixed as so i don't have a accident and see about getting the gas tank fixed.

On 11/7-22, I stopped at a major traffic light on my way to work and when the traffic light turned green and I motioned to drive forward, I noticed my car had stalled and proceeded to roll backwards in traffic. I quickly placed my foot on the gas pedal to move forward, however my car continued to roll backwards, almost hitting the vehicle behind me. So I immediately put on my emergency lights and pressed the brakes repeatedly, however my brakes were frozen (hard) and did not stop my car from rolling backwards. After several minutes, my car stopped rolling backwards and I was able to restart it and slowly drive off the major highway to get assistance. When driving off the highway my car was moving extremely slow and rough. Since the incident, my car have not been inspected or repaired by a mechanic. Prior to this incident, my car have stalled out at stops and while driving but never rolled backwards or lost brake control.

I CAN NOT AFFORD OVER $2000.00 TO HAVE THIS FIXED. FORD IS AWARE THAT IT IS A DEFECTIVE PART AND I DONT UNDERSTAND WHY THERE IS NOT A RECALL ON IT. I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF 6 LANES OF TRAFFIC DURING RUSH HOUR AND THE SUV JUST LOST POWER. I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED. I HAD NO WARNING OR ANYTHING THE SUV JUST SLOWLY STARTED LOSING POWER AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT DIDNT EVEN CUT ON UNTIL AFTER I TURNED EDGE OFF AND RESTARTED. THIS IS AN ISSUE IN NEED OF A RECALL ASAP! I HAVE DONE ALOT OF RESEARCH AND HAVE FOUND THAT THE FAULTY PCM BURNS UP THE COIL PACKS AND EVERYONE WHO IS JUST REPLACING COILS IS GOING TO HAVE THE SAME ISSUE AGAIN SINCE IT IS THE FAULTY PCM BURNING THE COILS AND UNTIL THE PCM ($835) IS REPLACED THEY WILL CONTINUE TO KEEP REPLACING THE COILS ($80 X 6 =$480.00) NONE OF THESE PRICES INCLUDE LABOR! ALSO DOESNT INCLUDE THE COST TO REPROGRAM THE NEW PCM TO MY KEYS SINCE IF YOU DONT FLASH THE NEW PCM THE EDGE WONT START DUE TO THE KEYS OUR PROGRAMMED SPECIFICALLY TO THE PCM INSTALLED TO THE EDGE. IF YOU HAVE ALREADY PAID TO HAVE THESE ISSUE FIXED PLEASE STILL CALL FORD WHEN AND IF THEY ISSUE A RECALL (WHICH THEY NEED TO!) YOU CAN SUBMIT YOUR RECEIPT AND BE REIMBURSED FOR COST TO HAVE IT FIXED! THE PCM PUSHES TO MUCH ELECTRICITY TO THE SPARK PLUGS IN TURN BURNING THE COILS AND COULD POSSIBLY CAUSE THE SUV TO CATCH FIRE!!!!! I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO DRIVE MY EDGE IN 3 WEEKS AND STILL OWE MONEY ON IT!

TAKATA RECALL I HAVE BEEN INFORMED THAT MY VEHICLE IS NO LONGER SAFE TO DRIVE WHILE SOME ONE IS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. IF DEPLOYED 'METAL FRAGMENTS-TO BE EXPELLED CAUSING SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.'I CALLED FORD TO SEE IF THEY MIGHT HAVE A TEMPORARY SOLUTION REGUARDING THIS HAZARDOUS RECALL, SINCE THE POSSIBLE REPLACEMENT WILL NOT BECOME AVAILABLE UNTIL THE SPRING OF 2018, THE REPRESENTATIVE COULD NOT PROVIDE ME WITH AN ANSWER. ACCORDING TO THE REP FORD IS NOT RESPONSIBLE. THIS AIRBAG INFLATOR IS A HUGE PROBLEM IN MY LIFE AND I WOULD HAVE LIKED IF THEY HAD RENTALS FOR THE DURATION OF THIS ISSUE. NOT ONLY IS IT A HAZARD FOR THE OWNER AND MY FAMILY BUT IT IS UNETHICAL FOR FORD COMPANY NOT TO CONSIDER WHAT COULD HAPPEN TO THE PEOPLE WHO OWN DEFECTIVE VEHICLES. I OWN THIS FORD AND HAVE A FAMILY OF FIVE. I DON'T HAVE OTHER MEANS TO TRAVEL AND TAKE KIDS TO SCHOOL, SOCCER, AND SOFTBALL. THIS VEHICLE IS OUR ONLY WAY TO BE WHERE WE HAVE TO BE. FORD IS WRONG FOR PUTTING US OUT AND PUTTING MY FAMILYS LIVES JEOPARDY.

THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED A MONTH AGO, IT WAS A SIMILAR ISSUE THAT RESOLVED ITSELF WITHIN ABOUT 10 MINUTES. BUT THE SECOND TIME IT HAPPENED 7 DAYS AGO, IT LASTED LONGER AND UNFORTUNATELY I HAD MY 14 MONTH OLD IN THE CAR. I WAS PULING OUT OF A PARKING SPACE ONE LATE AFTERNOON AND PROCEEDED TO DRIVE FORWARD AND NOTICED THAT IT WAS REVING VERY LOUDLY EVEN THOUGH IT WAS BARELY MOVING. WHENEVER I WOULD COME TO A LIGHT AND STOP OR SLOW DOWN TO TURN AND THEN TRY TO INCREASE MY SPEED I NOTICED THAT IT WOULD BE REVING SO LOUDLY AND BARELY MOVING AT FIRST, BUT THEN AFTER ABOUT 10 SECONDS IT WOULD START TO MOVE A LITTLE FASTER - BUT NOT AS FAST AS IT USUALLY MOVES WHEN I PUT THE SAME AMOUNT OF PRESSURE ON THE GAS PEDAL. I ALSO NOTICED ALONG THE WAY THAT MY SPEDOMETEER WAS NOT MOVING. IT WAS STUCK ON 0MPH THE WHOLE TIME. THEN ABOUT 5 MINUTES INTO THIS HORROR, THE WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON AND ALTHOUGHH I HAD MY SEATBELT ON AND I HAD NO FRONT PASSENGER, THE SETBELT LIGHT CAME ON TOO. I MANAGED TO PULL THE CAR OVER NEAR MY HOME AND MOVED INTO A SPACE IN FRONT OF A NEIGHBOR'S HOUSE. WHEN I WENT TO BACK UP AND CORRECT MY PARKING THE CAR MADE SUCH A LOUD CLUNK SOUND. I THEN TURNED OFF THE CAR AND RIGHT THEN A MESSAGE FLASHED ON THE DASH BOARD ABOUT 'CHECK TIRE PRESSURE' OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT. BUT MY TIRES WERE PERFECTLY AND PROPERLY INFLATED. THE FIRST INCIDENT SHOOK ME A LITTLE BUT IT WAS ONLY ME IN THE CAR AND I THOUGHT THAT MAYBE, (ALTHOUGH UNLIKELY), I MADE A MISTAKE AND WAS USING THE WRONG GEAR TO MANUVER. BUT AFTER THIS SECOND INCIDENT (ESPECIALLY WITH MY BABY IN THE CAR) I HAVE NOT TOUCHED THE CAR SINCE. I BOUGHT IT AS A FAMILY VEHICLE, AND IF IT COULD LEAD TO ME OR MY FAMILY BEING KILLED ON THE ROAD, THERE IS NO POINT. I THANK GOD THAT I AVOID HIGHWAYS BECAUSE I COULD NOT HAVE IMAGINED WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF I WAS ON A HIGHWAY WHEN THIS HAPPENED.

FORD DEALER HAS MY 2007 FORD EDGE DUE TO IT STALLING OUT WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH ON A HIGHWAY CAUSING MY ENGINE TO DIE SO I HAD TO GET TOWED HOME AND OFF OF THE HIGHWAY. THE DEALER ORIGINALLY THOUGHT IT WAS THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY BUT THEY HAVE NOW DETERMINED THAT WAS NOT THE PROBLEM. INSTEAD IT IS THE PCM WHICH IS COSTING ME OVER $1500, IF THAT EVEN FIXES THIS. PLUS I HAVE BEEN PAYING FOR A RENTAL CAR BECAUSE THE DEALERS DON'T HAVE FREE LOANER VEHICLES. SO THIS WHOLE THING IS GOING TO COST ME ABOUT $2000. NOW I HAVE BEEN RESEARCHING THIS PROBLEM, AND CAN CLEARLY TELL THIS IS NOT NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR INSTEAD IT IS A FAULTY PART THAT SO MANY OTHER OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING. I CLEARLY SEE FORD HAS BEEN MADE AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM AND THEY SHOULD BE TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR MISTAKE. FORD HAS REFUSED TO ISSUE A RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM EVEN THOUGH IT IS VERY DANGEROUS AND COSTLY FOR THE VEHICLE OWNER. I HAVE NEVER OWNED A FORD BEFORE AND LIKELY WILL NOT AGAIN BECAUSE OF THIS BAD EXPERIENCE.

A WHEEL SPEED SENSOR FAILED (PER MY MECHANIC), CAUSING THE ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEMS TO MALFUNCTION. IT BECAME EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO STOP THE CAR, WITH THE BRAKE PEDAL PULSING AND TRAVELING NEARLY TO THE FLOORBOARD. I WAS FINALLY ABLE TO STOP THE CAR JUST BEFORE RUNNING A RED LIGHT BY STANDING ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. THE BRAKE PADS WERE AT ~50% PER A RECENT STATE INSPECTION. THIS HAPPENED AGAIN IN FEBRUARY 2015 WHEN ANOTHER WHEEL SPEED SENSOR FAILED WITH MY WIFE AND CHILDREN IN THE CAR WITH ME. I WAS ABLE TO TEMPORARILY RESOLVE THE ISSUE BY PULLING THE ABS FUSE TO DISABLE THE ABS SYSTEM. FORD'S R&M ENGINEERS MUST HAVE FORGOTTEN TO PERFORM A FAILURE MODE ANALYSIS ON THE EDGE'S ABS SYSTEM.

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

I HAVE A 2007 FORD EDGE. I HAVE HAD BRAKE PROBLEMS EVER SINCE I BOUGHT IT. BY BRAKE PROBLEMS, I MEAN THEY SOMETIMES GRIND AND SOMETIMES FEEL LIKE I CAN'T STOP AS WELL AS I SHOULD BE ABLE TO. I HAD THEM CHECKED SEVERAL TIMES AND WAS TOLD THEY WERE FINE. I FINALLY HAD THEM REPLACED BUT THEY STILL GRIND AT TIMES. I'VE LEARNED TO DEAL WITH THIS PROBLEM. I'VE ALSO EXPERIENCED A LOUD ROARING NOISE. I'M NOT SURE WHAT THIS IS BUT I'VE ALSO LEARNED TO DEAL WITH IT AS WELL. EVERYTIME SOMEONE RIDES WITH ME THEY ASK WHAT THE NOISE IS AND TELL ME IT SOUNDS LIKE MY CAR HAS NOT SHIFTED INTO THE RIGHT GEAR. THE MAJOR PROBLEM I HAVE DEALT WITH IS THE JERKING TRANSMISSION. IT STARTED THIS ABOUT A YEAR AFTER BUYING IT. IT STARTED DOING IT A FEW TIMES HERE AND THERE UNTIL IT GOT TO WHERE IT DID IT ALL THE TIME. I HAD MENTIONED IT WHEN I TOOK MY CAR TO GET THE OIL CHANGED BUT THEY ALWAYS TOLD ME THEY DIDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG. I FINALLY TOLD THEM THEY HAD TO DO SOMETHING. THEY KEPT IT FOR A FEW DAYS AND FINALLY CALLED AND SAID THE VALVE BODY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. LUCKILY IT WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. THEY REPLACED IT AND IT WAS FINE UP UNTIL SEVERAL MONTHS AGO. IT STARTED THE JERKING ALL OVER AGAIN. IT STARTED OUT SLOW BUT NOW DOES IT ALL THE TIME. I CAN'T AFFORD TO HAVE IT FIXED AGAIN AS IT'S NOT UNDER WARRANTY ANY LONGER. IT'S STILL ONLY 4 YEARS OLD AND SHOULD NOT BE HAVING ALL OF THESE PROBLEMS. I AM REALLY SURPRISED THERE HAVE BEEN NO RECALLS AS I'VE READ OF OTHER PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS. I AM VERY UPSET AS I STILL OWE ON THIS VEHICLE BUT REALLY WISH I COULD GET RID OF IT. I HAVE NEVER HAD SO MANY PROBLEMS WITH A VEHICLE....EVEN A CAR I BOUGHT THAT WAS FOUR YEARS OLD.....IT WAS A TOYOTA....GUESS I SHOULD HAVE NEVER WENT TO A FORD! *TR

FOR THE LAST YEAR OR MORE MY CAR (2007 FORD EDGE SEL) HAS BEEN STALLING. I BROUGHT MY VEHICLE INTO FORD WHILE IT WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY AND WAS TOLD THEY DIDN'T FIND ANYTHING. IT CONTINUED TO HAPPEN ON AND OFF SO WE BROUGHT IT BACK TO FORD IN JUNE 2010 AND THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING THEY HOOKED IT UP TO THE COMPUTER AND DID AN UPDATE, THEY THOUGHT THIS WOULD SOLVE IT. A WEEK LATER IT STARTED AGAIN BUT THIS TIME STARTED STALLING WHILE DRIVING. IT HAPPENED WHILE I WAS DRIVING DOWN A WINDING HILL, I LOST COMPLETED CONTROL OF THE CAR AND HAD NO STEERING, I QUICKLY SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL AND RESTARTED WHILE TRYING TO KEEP THE CAR ON THE ROAD. IT WAS VERY SCARY AS I HAD MY 2 CHILDREN IN THE CAR. THE CAR IS CURRENTLY BACK AT FORD AND HAS BEEN FOR THE LAST 2 WEEKS AS THE VEHICLE IS NO LONGER SAFE TO DRIVE. THEY SAY THEY CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG. AFTER SEARCHING THE INTERNET I FOUND 6 OR MORE CASE OF THE SAME COMPLAINT WITH THE FORD EDGE 2007 AND 2008 BUT YET FORD DOESN'T KNOW WHAT IS CAUSING THIS. *TR

WE PURCHASED OUR 2007 FORD EDGE ON APRIL 18TH 2008 AT THAT TIME THE AIR BAG LIGHT WAS ON...THE DEALER REPLACED THE SENSORS. ON MAY 2ND WE TOOK IT BACK INTO OUR LOCAL DEALERSHIP FOR THE LIGHT WAS BACK ON AGAIN. THEY REPLACED THE CORRECT SENSOR AND IT MADE IT UNTIL OCTOBER WHEN THE LIGHT WAS BACK ON FOR THE THIRD TIME SINCE WE OWNED THE VEHICLE. THIS TIME THEY REPLACED ANOTHER SENSOR AND WORKED ON THE SUNROOF FOR IT WAS NOT CLOSING RIGHT. IN NOVEMBER 2008 THE LIGHT WAS BACK ON AGAIN AND THIS TIME WIRING WAS REPLACED. THREE WEEKS LATER THE AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN CIRCUITS WERE CHECKED FOR SHORTS? THEN IN JUNE 2009 THE AIR BAG LIGHT WAS BACK ON AND THIS TIME FLICKERS ON AND OFF. THEY INSTALLED A NEW RMC, ANOTHER SENSOR AND THE RESTRAINT CONTROL MODULE. DECEMBER 3RD WE TOOK IT BACK TO OUR SERVICE DEPARTMENT WITH THE AIR BAG LIGHT ON FOR THE 7TH TIME NOW, AND THE FORD HOTLINE HAD THEM CHECKING ALL CRASH SENSORS, THE RIGHT AXEL SEAL WAS LEAKING OIL AS WELL AND THE PART WAS ORDERED TO FIX. TOOK THE CAR BACK ON THE 16TH AND THEY SUPPOSEDLY "FIXED" ALL PROBLEMS! TWO DAYS LATER THE AIR BAG LIGHT WAS BACK ON FOR THE 8TH TIME AND FORD HAS HAD MY CAR SINCE THEN. IT IS NOW JANUARY 2010 AND THEY STILL ARE WORKING ON THE AIR BAG ISSUE..HEADQUARTERS HAS BEEN CONTACTED BUT DOESN'T SEEM TO DO US ANY GOOD. THE DRIVERS SIDE AIR BAG SENSOR WAS REPLACED AND WE WERE TOLD THAT IT FINALLY SOLVED THE PROBLEM BUT AN HOUR LATER WE RECEIVED A CALL FROM THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT STATING THAT THE AIR BAG LIGHT IS ON FOR THE 9TH TIME NOW AND IS CURRENTLY AWAITING ANOTHER PART TO BE REPLACED! THIS TO US IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS SOME ATTENTION! *TR

MY WIFE AND I BOTH DRIVE FORD EDGE CROSSOVER SUV'S. BOTH CARS HAVE MAJOR PROBLEMS WITH THE BRAKE SYSTEM. WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING SLOWLY & GOT TO PUT ON THE BRAKES, THE BRAKES MAKE A TERRIBLE LOUD GRABBING NOISE & THE CAR KIND OF SKIPS TO A STOP. I HAVE DONE SOME RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND OUT THAT MANY PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME ISSUE, BUT FORD REFUSES TO DO A RECALL. THE FORD SERVICE REP. AT THE DEALERSHIP I GO TO IS TRYING TO TELL ME THAT THIS IS HOW THE BRAKES ARE SUPPOSED TO BE. THERE IS A MAJOR PROBLEM WITH THESE CARS AND SOMETHING HAS TO BE DONE. WE HAD ANOTHER FORD EDGE THAT WAS DESTROYED IN A REAR END COLLISION & IT ALSO HAD THE SAME BRAKE PROBLEM. THREE FOR THREE IS NOT A GOOD THING. THE REAR END COLLISION WAS NOT A RESULT OF THE BRAKE PROBLEM. *TR
