2007 FORD EDGE Engine Problems

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

While driving the air bag symbol and wrench appears on the dash, car starts losing power, and when shifting gears there's a hard shift and clunking noise. Videos on YouTube show many people with the same issue some say it's a sensor issue. Output Shaft speed sensor and turbine speed sensor

when i bought my car on [XXX] I drove it home from Hooksett NH from Alfa Car dealership tire pressure light came on battery light and the check engine light all came on and when I stopped and turned the car off all lights went off. I owned the car for two days and all of a sudden my car would not start it was fine went to drop my dog off and the car wouldn't start for a few hours this happened. When driving white smoke came out of the rear and I had an oil in the car. The car completely dies in the middle of the road and doesn't start all the oil is gone and there is a hole through my engine. 1. NO dealership will not help in any way 2. yes mine and many more on the road 3 yes I called the dealership and they want me to pay 200 dollars for a warranty 4 yes a mechanic looked at it when I was on the side of the road 5. no 6 no lights and nothing showed me any signs INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

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 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.

Ford oem water pump failing causing antifreeze to mix in oil, costly repair

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 BOUGHT MY CAR A FEW YEARS AGO FROM A USED CAR LOT. I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS EVER SINCE. MY BREAKS KEEP GOING, MY TRANSMISSION IS SLIPPING AND THE TRIMMING AROUND MY WINDSHIELD IS FALLING OUT. I'M AFRAID THE WINDSHIELD IS GOING TO FLY OFF. ALL I KEEP SEEING ATE PROBLEMS WITH THIS CAR.

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 .

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.

UPON PICKING MY CAR UP FROM THE DEALER SHIP AFTER HAVING A REPAIR DONE FOR A RECALL MY CAR EXPERIENCED CATASTROPHIC ENGINE FAILURE. THE DEALERSHIP WILL NOT REPLACE DAMAGED PARTS.

WE PURCHASED OUR VEHICLE USED AND WITH AN EXTENDED WARRANTY. SEVERAL MONTHS AFTER WE HAD THE VEHICLE WE NOTICED IT WOULD JUMP OR SKIP ALMOST LIKE IT IS NOT GOING INTO GEAR. AT FIRST IT STARTED WITH BEING AT A STOP SIGN AND WHEN I TRIED TO GO IT WOULD JUMP. IT EVENTUALLY STARTED TO HAPPEN WHILE WE ARE DRIVING, THERE IS NO CONSISTENT SITUATION LIKE GOING UP OR DOWN A HILL, STOPPED AT A STOPPED SIGN, OR EVEN BACKING UP WHERE THAT IS THE ONLY TIME IT HAPPENS. OVER THE LAST 3 YEARS WE HAVE HAD SEVERAL SHOPS LOOK AT IT INCLUDING A THE FORD DEALERSHIP WHERE WE PURCHASED IT WHILE IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY AND AFTER. EACH TIME THEY ADVISED THE COMPUTER WAS NOT REGISTERING ANYTHING WRONG. EVERY LOCATION DROVE THE VEHICLE AND DID FEEL THE SAME THING BUT WERE UNABLE TO LOCATE THE ISSUE. WE HAVE EVEN LEFT THE CAR AT THE SHOP FOR SEVERAL DAYS AT A TIME FOR THEM TO DRIVE AND TRY TO LOCATE THE ISSUE. I HAVE CONTACT FORD BUT WAS ADVISED THERE WAS NO RECALL OR ANYONE ELSE HAVING ISSUES BUT I WAS WELCOME TO CALL BACK AND KEEP ADVISING THEM OF THE ISSUE. THE REPAIR SHOPS ADVISED I WOULD HAVE TO WAIT FOR SOMETHING TO ESSENTIALLY BREAK TO BE ABLE TO LOCATE THE PROBLEM. OTHER THAN THIS ISSUE WE HAVE HAD NO MECHANICAL PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR AND WE HAVE IT SERVICED REGULARLY BUT WE ARE CONCERNED WITH DRIVING IT LONG DISTANCES AND I AM AFRAID THIS JUMP/SKIP MAY EVENTUALLY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. I WOULD LIKE TO TRY TO SEE IF ANYONE ELSE IS HAVING THIS ISSUE OR IF ANYTHING CAN BE DONE TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM.

THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO OVERHEAT RAPIDLY AND THE AIR CONDITIONING BEGAN TO PUT OUT HOT AIR. I PULLED THE VEHICLE OFF OF THE ROAD AND TURNED EVERYTHING OFF. UPON COOLING DOWN, WATER WAS ADDED TO THE RADIATOR AND THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE MECHANIC. THE PROBLEM WAS AN INTERNAL WATER PUMP. THE WATER PUMP COST $1900 TO HAVE REPLACED. I CONTACTED FORD AND THEY SAID THEY CANNOT DO ANYTHING, IT IS THE DESIGN AND HOW YOU HAVE TO ACCESS THE WATER PUMP. I PRICED (3) DIFFERENT DEALERS ON THE REPAIR AND THEY WERE ALL WITHIN A FEW DOLLARS OF EACH OTHER. THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN RELIABLE. *TR

I WAS DRIVING MY VEHICLE AND NOTICED IT JERKING AND HESITATING TO ACCELERATE. THE ENGINE LIGHT BECAME BLINKING RAPIDLY AND I NOTICED A BURNING SMELL. I TOOK MY CAR TO A SHOP, WHO STATED THAT ONE OF THE COILS HAD MELTED AND CRACKED. THEY REPLACED THE COILS AND ALL SPARK PLUGS. PICKED MY VEHICLE UP AND STILL HAD THE SAME ISSUES, CONSTANT JERKING, ENGINE LIGHT STILL ON, AND STILL NOT WANTING TO ACCELERATE. TOOK VEHICLE BACK THE FOLLOWING DAY, SHOP STATED THE PCM WAS BAD AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I THEN CONTACTED A LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP, WHO CLAIMED THEY HAD NEVER HEARD OF THIS ISSUE, AND I WOULD NEED TO PAY FOR THEM TO RUN THEIR OWN DIAGNOSTICS ON IT, EVEN THOUGH I WAS WELL AWARE OF WHAT WAS WRONG WITH IT. AS OF RIGHT NOW THE CAR IS STILL NOT FIXED, AND RUNS HORRIBLY. I REFUSE TO SPEND ANYMORE MONEY ON A PROBLEM THAT FORD IS WELL AWARE OF!!! *TR

WAS DRIVING AT 45 MPH WHEN THE CAR SUDDENLY OVERHEATED AND IN A MATTER OF SECONDS IT CRACKED THE BLOCK. THE DEALERSHIP IT WAS TOWED TO COULDN'T EVEN TELL ME HOW SOMETHING LIKE THAT COULD HAVE HAPPENED. THIS CAR HAS BEEN WELL TAKEN CARE OF. NEEDLESS TO SAY...I HAD TO BUY A WHOLE NEW ENGINE FOR IT. I DON'T THINK THIS WAS ANYTHING THAT I DID THAT MADE THIS HAPPEN. HONESTLY I THINK IT IS SOMETHING FORD SHOULD REALLY LOOK AT IF THE SERVICE MECHANICS AT A FORD DEALERSHIP CAN'T EVEN TELL ME HOW IT HAPPENED. *TR

I WAS DRIVING MY 2007 FORD EDGE WITH 3 CHILDREN IN IT WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN I LOST THE ABILITY TO NOT ONLY ACCELERATE BUT MY SPEED SUDDENLY FELL FROM 45 MILES AN HOUR TO 15 MILES AN HOUR WITHOUT ANY ABILITY TO ACCELERATE. 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

MY VEHICLE ALL OF A SUDDEN STARTED TO SLOW DOWN SUDDENLY LIKE I HAD TAKEN MY FOOT OFF THE GAS. IT STARTED SHUDDERING AND MY TRANSMISSION LIGHT CAME ON. I THOUGHT IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION SO I HAD IT TOWED TO THE SHOP. AFTER DIAGNOSIS, IT SHOWED MY CYLINDERS WERE MISFIRING. IT WAS DUE TO A BAD COIL WHICH WAS CAUSING THE SPARK PLUGS TO READ AT AN EXTREMELY HIGH VOLTAGE. THEY NEEDED TO REPLACE ALL COILS AND ALL SPARK PLUGS. THEN FOUND OUT THAT IT FRIED MY PCM(COMPUTER) WHICH ALSO HAD TO BE REPLACED. COME TO FIND OUT, THIS IS A KNOW ISSUE WITH THE 2007 FORD EDGE AND THERE IS A TSB ON IT FOR THIS EXACT SITUATION. THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THAT THE PCM HAD A MALFUNCTION WHICH CAUSED THE COILS/SPARK PLUGS TO GO BAD. THEY ALSO SAID THE PCM HAS A MANUFACTURER 8 YEAR/80,000 MILE WARRANTY. WELL I WAS AT 7 YEARS/83000 MILES AND WHEN THEY SUBMITTED THE WARRANTY CLAIM, FORD DENIED IT FORCING ME TO PAY $2400 FOR THE REPAIRS. I THINK THIS IS RIDICULOUS TO DENY A KNOWN MALFUNCTION FOR ONLY 3000 MILES OVER. WHAT IF I HAD BEEN ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN MY VEHICLE SUDDENLY CAME TO A STOP? I HAD MY SON WITH ME THAT DAY AND THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED A MAJOR ACCIDENT, POSSIBLY INVOLVING OTHER DRIVERS, AND WE MAY HAVE EVEN BEEN INJURED. AND FORD DOESN'T FEEL RESPONSIBLE TO HELP WITH THE COST OF THIS REPAIR?? *TR

SINCE FEB 2014, MY 2007 FORD EDGE SEEMED TO BE WANTING TO STALL WHEN I WAS DRIVING AND/OR TRYING TO ACCELERATE. I DIDN'T THINK ANYTHING OF IT AS IT WASN'T A 24/7 ISSUE BUT IT DID HAPPEN REGULARLY. YESTERDAY EVERYTHING CHANGED. I WENT TO TURN MY CAR ON YESTERDAY AND IT DIDN'T TURN ON RIGHT AWAY. IT WAS "TRYING" TO START AND THEN IT WOULD SHUT DOWN. I WOULD TRY TO START IT AGAIN AND ONCE AGAIN, IT WAS "TRYING" TO START AND EVENTUALLY DID. I WAS DRIVING HOME ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN I BEGAN TO NOTICE THAT I WASN'T ABLE TO ACCELERATE AND I WAS GOING SLOWER AND SLOWER SO I MANAGED TO PULL OVER TO THE BREAK DOWN LANE AND THEN THE CAR JUST SHUT OFF. ONCE AGAIN, IT DIDN'T TURN ON THE FIRST TIME I TRIED BUT THEN IT DID THE SECOND TIME BUT RELUCTANTLY. THE LIGHTS WERE DIM ON MY DASHBOARD WHICH HADN'T HAPPENED BEFORE. I MANAGED TO GET HOME VERY SLOWLY. I SHUT MY CAR OFF AT HOME AND TRIED TO TURN IT ON AND AGAIN IT WAS STRUGGLING TO TURN ON. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER TODAY AND I WAS TOLD THAT THE THROTTLE BODY HAD TO BE REPLACED. THE SERVICE TECH WENT ON TO EXPLAIN THAT HE HAS SEEN THIS ISSUE ESPECIALLY IN THE YEAR AND MODEL THAT I HAVE. I HAVE GOOGLED THIS ISSUE ONLINE AND SEE THAT THE NHTSA HAD BEEN LOOKING INTO THIS SAME ISSUE/COMPLAINTS BUT WITH A LATER YEAR AS WELL AS WELL AS OTHER MODELS. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THIS WASN'T A RECALL AS THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A DANGEROUS SCENARIO. I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN THIS OCCURRED AND THANKFULLY NOT WITH MY CHILDREN. I SEE SEVERAL COMPLAINTS ONLINE FOR THE SAME ISSUE. I NEED TO PAY TO GET THIS FIXED BUT I FEEL THIS SHOULD BE COMING OUT OF FORD'S POCKET AS IT SEEMS LIKE IT WAS A DEFECTIVE PART. THIS COMPLAINT SHOULD BE OPENED AGAIN AND A FORMAL RECALL SHOULD BE ESTABLISHED. THIS COULD BE POTENTIALLY VERY DANGEROUS AND EVEN FATAL. *TR

DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS THE VEHICLE WILL SHIFT VERY HARD, FEELS LIKE SOMEONE REAR ENDING ME. THE TRANSMISSION FEELS LIKE IT HAS A HARD TIME GETTING INTO GEAR. AT HIGH SPEEDS THE SAME THING HAPPENS BUT USUALLY ON HOT DAYS. THE TRANSMISSION FINALLY GAVE OUT AT 75000 DUE TO THE HARD SLAMMING AND HAD TO BE REBUILT. I WAS LEAVING A DRIVEWAY AND WAS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE, PUTTING ME AT RISK OF BEING HIT FROM BEHIND. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN DISASTROUS AT HIGH SPEEDS. AT 78000 MILES I AM STILL HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM, I TURN THE VEHICLE ON THE TRANSMISSION SLAMS INTO R AND THEN I CANNOT ACCELERATE PAST 10 MPH. I TURN THE VEHICLE OFF AND RESTART IT, AND IT SEEMS LIKE NOTHING EVERY HAPPENED. THIS HAPPENS INTERMITTENTLY AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS COME ONE ONLY EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE IT IS HAPPENING. WORRIED ABOUT ME AND MY BABIES SAFETY WHILE DRIVING. *TR

HE REFILLS THE ANTIFREEZE AND I WAS ON MY WAY. 20 MINS INTO MY DRIVE, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON AND THE THERMOSTAT LOOKS FINE, BUT THE CAR STARTED SPUTTERING AND STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY AREA OF NYC. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO A MECHANIC AND AFTER THEIR DIAGNOSTIC TEST THEY SAID THE ENGINE HEAD IS CRACKED OR WARPED AND THEY FOUND ANTIFREEZE MIXED IN OIL AND RADIATOR AND WILL COST $2500 TO FIX! WTF!!

RIGHT AWAY, WE NOTICED THE CAR SHAKING, NOT MUCH POWER, AND IT WAS SPUTTERING ALONG. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS FLASHING AS WELL, INDICATING ENGINE MISFIRE. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO A FORD DEALERSHIP. THE FORD DEALERSHIP RAN A DIAGNOSTIC AND DETERMINED THAT THE PCU HAD OVERHEATED AND THE CYLINDER COILS MELTED. THEY ALSO SAID THE PCU IS NO LONGER OPERABLE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED, ALONG WITH THE COILS AND PLUGS. GENERALLY, ENGINE MISFIRE INDICATES A TUNE-UP IS NEEDED; HOWEVER, IN THIS CASE, THE CAR NEEDS A BRAND-NEW COMPUTER. THE DEALERSHIP QUOTED US AT 2,700 TOTAL FOR THE REPAIR. FURTHERMORE, THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE CAR, AS DETERMINED BY FORD, AS IT ISSUED TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN 13-4-7, CITING THIS MODEL AND SEVERAL OTHERS AS PRONE TO THIS MALFUNCTION. FORD SHOULD RECALL THIS MODEL AND HAVE THE ISSUE FIXED. NO RECALLS EVEN THOUGH THIS POSES A FIRE HAZARD? SHOCKING. *JB

I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING VERY ODD UNEXPLAINABLE EVENTS WITH MY 2007 FORD EDGE SINCE FALL OF 2012 WHICH HAS NOW RESULTED IN FULL FAILURE OF MY TRANSMISSION. BEGINNING IN THE FALL, MY EDGE STARTED TO GIVE ME WARNING MESSAGES ON MY ELECTRONIC DASH PANEL READING "TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR FAULT", ONCE PUT IN REVERSE, THE CAR WOULD MAKE A VIOLENT JERKING MOTION AND LOUD UGLY SOUND. THE MESSAGE ON THE DASH WOULD THEN CHANGE TO READ "ODB DATA ERROR". THE WRENCH AND AIRBAG ICONS WOULD BE LIT. AFTER SHIFTING TO DRIVE, THE CAR SOUNDED AS IF IT WAS IN HIGH GEAR, BUT IT WOULD REFUSE TO ACCELERATE TO A FAST SPEED. ONCE DRIVING, THE SPEEDOMETER WOULD NOT REGISTER SPEED, IT WOULD SIT AT 0 MPH. THE DIGITAL ODOMETER FAILED TO DISPLAY ANYTHING. AS I DROVE, THE TRANSMISSION WOULD NOT SHIFT OR IT WOULD SEEM TO TRY TO SHIFT AND THEN THE CAR WOULD MAKE THE SAME VIOLENT JERKING MOTION AS I EXPERIENCED WHEN I PUT IT IN REVERSE. IF I STOPPED, IT WOULD BE DIFFICULT TO GET THE CAR MOVING, IT WOULDN'T WANT TO MOVE/ACCELERATE. THE CAR WOULD ALSO MAKE UNEXPECTED LUNGING MOVEMENTS WHILE DRIVING. THE CAR WOULD ALSO ON OCCASION SUDDENLY STOP ACCELERATING WHILE DRIVING, ALMOST AS IF IT HAD AUTOMATICALLY SHIFTED INTO LOW GEAR. THIS HAPPENED TO ME SEVERAL TIMES WHILE DRIVING ON THE EXPRESSWAY. NOT SAFE! ON MONDAY, JUNE 17, 2013, MY TRANSMISSION FAILED COMPLETELY. UNACCEPTABLE FOR A CAR MY AGE! AS I HAVE BEGUN TO INVESTIGATE THIS PROBLEM ON THE WEB, TO MY SURPRISE, THIS PROBLEM IS EXTENSIVE. FORD OWNERS HAVE BEEN COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS FOR YEARS, YET FORD HAS FAILED TO RECOGNIZE THIS PROBLEM WITH A RECALL. HELP! THIS PROBLEM IS COSTLY AND POTENTIALLY HAZARDOUS!!! *TR

IF I ACCELERATE MORE THAN 15 MPH THE CAR WOULD WHAT I CALL "SLAM" INTO THE NEXT GEAR. WHEN I AM ACCELERATING ONTO THE HIGHWAY OR ACCELERATE AND THEN BACK OFF THE GAS AND GO AGAIN OR IF I ACCELERATE INTO THE PASSING LANE THE CAR DOESN'T DRIVE. I HAVE HAD THE CAR TO BETHLEHEM FORD, KELLY FORD IN EMMAUS AND GILBOY FORD IN WHITEHALL FOR THE PROBLEM TWO TIMES AT EACH LOCATION. NO ONE CAN FIND OUT WHAT IS WRONG. CONTACTED FORD DIRECTLY AND THEY SAY TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR, I TOLD THEM I DID NUMEROUS TIMES AND THEY TOLD ME THIS."THE CAR LEARNS HOW YOU DRIVE, SO WHEN YOU DRIVE OUT OF CHARACTER THE CAR BASICALLY REACTS BY TELLING YOU NOW WAIT A MINUTE I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING AND THE CAR REACTS IN A CONFUSED MANNER". THEY ALSO TOLD ME THAT BECAUSE I'M NOT AN AGGRESSIVE DRIVER THAT WHEN I DO DRIVE AGGRESSIVE "THE CAR DOESN'T UNDERSTAND". I DRIVE HIGHWAY EVERY DAY TO AND FROM WORK, I HAVE TO BE AGGRESSIVE MOST OF THE TIME TO SURVIVE ON THE HIGHWAY AND KEEP UP WITH TRAFFIC. I HAVE ASKED THE DEALERSHIP TO COME DOWN THE BLOCK SO I CAN SHOW THEM WHAT THE CAR DOES SINCE IT DOES IT EVERY DAY WHEN I LEAVE WORK BUT THEY TELL ME THEY CAN'T BECAUSE IT IS A LIABILITY ISSUE FOR THEM TO DRIVE IN THE CAR WITH ME. THEY HAVE HAD THE CAR AND CAN'T MAKE IT REPEAT THE SITUATION; I HAVE GONE ON TEST RIDES WITH A MECHANIC AND CAN'T MAKE IT REPEAT THE PROBLEM. I WAS TAKING ONE OF OUR EMPLOYEES TO GO PICK UP ONE OF THE COMPANY VEHICLES AT GILBOY AND I SAID DO YOU WANT ME TO SHOW YOU WHAT MY CAR DOES AND HE SAID YES. SO I MADE THE CAR DO THE SLAMMING INTO GEAR AND HE SAID THAT ISN'T RIGHT HE TRIED TO FIGHT FOR ME AT GILBOY BUT THEY SAID AGAIN NO CODE AND THEY COULDN'T REPEAT THE SITUATION. NOW MY CAR IS ALMOST OUT OF WARRANTY AND STILL NO FIX. I DON'T HAVE MONEY TO MAKE MAJOR REPAIRS TO A CAR THAT IS WHY I BOUGHT NEW AND I DON'T HAVE MONEY TO BUY A NEW CAR. *TR
