2007 FORD EDGE Fuel/propulsion System Problems

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.

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.

Cruise control stops working and starts working again at varies times. Thermostat sticks to cause the the temp to go from normal to hot quick. Fuel gage/floater is never accurate with how much gas is in gas tank

I bought the vehicle used and I was told that it ran fine and there were no issues with the automobile. 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. I don't drive it very fast at all and won't take it a long distance .to scares to go far in it

THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V384000 (AIR BAGS) AND STATED THAT THE PART WAS NOT AVAILABLE WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME FRAME TO SCHEDULE THE RECALL REPAIR. THE DEALER (VELDE FORD, 488 US-1, VERO BEACH, FL 32962, (772) 569-3400) DID NOT GIVE A SPECIFIC DATE FOR WHEN THE PART WOULD BECOME AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE WHEN THE VEHICLE WOULD BE REPAIRED.

CAR HAS SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER, ACCELERATOR DOESN'T WORK, BUT THE CAR DOESN'T ACTUALLY DIE OUT. THIS HAPPENS AT ALL SPEEDS, THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS ON HIGHWAYS AND IN TRAFFIC. THE WRENCH LIGHT COMES ON. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH MANY FORDS AND THE FIX IS THE THROTTLE BODY REPLACEMENT. FORD HAS A CUSTOMER SERVICE DEAL GOING ON TO FIX IT, BUT MY YEAR OF CAR HASN'T BEEN INCLUDED ALTHOUGH I HAVE THE EXACT ISSUE.

Mileage: 175,000

BAD ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY AND IT'S SENSOR. THIS IS A COMMON AND COSTLY REPAIR WITH FORD VEHICLES BUT THEY HAVE REFUSED A RECALL. IT IS DANGEROUS AS IT CAUSES YOUR VEHICLE TO COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN WHILE DRIVING. IT HAPPENS FREQUENTLY WHEN ACCELERATING OR RANDOMLY WHEN DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED I WAS DRIVING 60 MPH AND MY CAR SUDDENLY SHUT DOWN AND LOCKED UP THEN WAS UNABLE TO START SO I HAD TO GET IT TOWED.

Mileage: 125,000

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.

GAS TANK IS RUSTING OUT ON TOP OF TANK AND ON SEAM. CONTACTED FORD AND WAS TOLD TO REPLACE TANK AT A COST OF 2800.00 DOLLARS JUST FOR TANK. I THINK THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE EXHAUST IS RIGHT BELOW THE TANK. HOW CAN A VEHICLE THAT IS 7 YEARS OLD BE RUSTING OUT A GAS TANK. I THINK FORD HAS KNOWN ABOUT THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE I CAN'T EVEN LOCATE A USED TANK TO REPLACE IT WITH. HOW CAN THEY JUSTIFY A NEW TANK AT 2800.00. THEY SHOULD HAVE RECALLED TO REPLACE THESE TANKS, 07,08,09 AND SOME 2010 FORD EDGES ARE AFFECTED WITH THIS PROBLEM AND NOT JUST A COUPLE BUT PRACTICALLY EVERYONE SOLD!

I BEGAN TO SMELL A STRONG GAS SMELL, THEN I SAW DROPS OF GAS ON MY DRIVEWAY. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO MY DEALERSHIP. THEY INFORMED ME THE FUEL TANK WAS RUSTED WITH A HOLE, THUS THE LEAK. THE REPAIR WAS VERY COSTLY, I ASKED THEM TO PURSUE A USED FUEL TANK. AFTER RESEARCHING EXTENSIVELY, THE DEALER AND I FOUND THAT ALL OF THE USED FUEL TANKS ALSO HAVE HOLES AND ARE RUSTED. THE DEALER WENT FORWARD WITH REQUESTING A NEW FUEL TANK, ONLY TO FIND THAT FORD HAS THEM ON BACKORDER WITH AN ETA OF NEVER. THE DEALERSHIP REP CALLED FORD TO FIND THEY ARE NO LONGER MAKING THE FUEL TANK, THERE IS NO SUPPLIER FOR THE FUEL TANK. I AM LEFT WITH A CAR THAT CANNOT BE REPAIRED PROPERLY.

FUEL TANK LEAKING. NOTICED A STRONG FUEL ODOR WHEN I FILLED THE TANK. DID SOME RESEARCH AND THERE ARE OVER A HUNDRED COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS. LEAK IS COMING FROM THE TOP SEAL OR SEAM.

WILL BE DRIVING ALONG AT ANY SPEED AND CAR WILL NOT ACCELERATE, IT DOES NOT STALL BUT WRENCH LIGHT COMES ON AND YOU CAN'T DO ANYTHING UNTIL YOU SHUT OFF THE CAR AND RESTART IT. THIS HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES AND HASN'T CAUSED AN ACCIDENT YET, BUT MOST CERTAINLY WILL EVENTUALLY. THIS PROBLEM IS WELL KNOWN, BUT IS PHRASED AS STALLING WHEN IT TRULY DOESN'T STALL, ACCELERATOR JUST DOESN'T WORK AND CAR SLOWS DOWN QUICKLY IN TRAFFIC. *TR

I AM THE OWNER OF A 2007 FORD EDGE SE. WE RECENTLY SMELLED GAS COMING FROM THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO A FORD DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THE PROBLEM DIAGNOSED. THE FORD DEALERSHIP EXPLAINED THAT THERE WAS A HOLE IN THE GAS TANK DUE TO CORROSION AND WOULD NEED A NEW GAS TANK AND FUEL PUMP THAT WOULD COST APPROXIMATELY $1,800 TO $2,500 TO FIX. THE DEALERSHIP REFUSED TO COMPLETE THE WORK WITHOUT PAYMENT SINCE NO RECALL HAS BEEN GIVEN FOR THE 2007 EDGE. WE WERE LEFT WITH THE OPTIONS OF PAYING FOR A NEW GAS TANK AND FUEL PUMP OR CALLING FORD TO COMPLAIN. ANOTHER MECHANIC EXPLAINED TO US THAT THE GAS TANK IS A DESIGN DEFAULT BY FORD AND NO DAMAGE WAS DONE TO THE TANK BY US. *TR

I RECENTLY PURCHASED A 2007 FORD EDGE SEL AWD. I HAVE HAD NO PROBLEMS WITH THE VEHICLE UNTIL THIS PAST THURSDAY (09/11/2014) WHEN I PUT $40.00 WORTH OF GAS IN IT WHEN IT WAS CLOSE TO EMPTY. AFTER PUTTING IN $40.00 WORTH OF GAS, IT GAVE ME A APPROXIMATELY 3/4 TANK OF GAS. I THEN PARKED IT AT MY PLACE OF WORK (NO INCLINE OF ANY SORT) AND STARTED TO SMELL GAS. THE TANK IS LEAKING ON THE PASSENGER SIDE UNDERNEATH. AFTER WORK, I DROVE HOME (MAYBE 10 MILES) AND HAVE NOT EVEN MOVED THE VEHICLE UNTIL TODAY (09/13/2014) AND ONLY HAVE 1/4 TANK OF GAS LEFT. NOT ONLY IS IT LEAKING GAS BUT THE INSIDE OF THE VEHICLE WREAKS. I HAVE A 2 MONTH OLD CHILD WHO I AM AFRAID TO TAKE IN THE VEHICLE NOW BECAUSE THE SMELL IS SO STRONG. THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE RESOLVED AS I AM NOT THE ONLY PERSON WHO HAS COMPLAINED ABOUT THIS SITUATION. I SEE THAT 2008 FORD EDGE MODELS HAVE BEEN RECALLED DUE TO THE SAME PROBLEM.

FOR SEVERAL DAYS PRIOR TO AND AFTER FILLING THE GAS TANK, THERE WAS A STRONG SMELL OF GASOLINE WHILE DRIVING, WHILE PARKED IN GARAGE AND WHILE PARKED IN LOT. DEALERSHIP NOTED THAT THE GAS TANK HAD COMPLETELY RUSTED AND WAS LEAKING AT THE SEAM. (ALTHOUGH I DO LIVE IN A NORTHERN STATE, THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN GARAGED DURING WINTER, WASHED APPROPRIATELY, WELL TAKEN CARE OF AND ROUTINE MAINTENANCE). THE DEALERSHIP CUSTOMER SERVICE AND FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE WERE EXTREMELY POOR. FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE STATED THAT THERE IS NO RECALL, THEREFORE THEY WILL NOT STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT- THIS WILL NOT BE THE FIRST REVIEW THAT YOU WILL READ ABOUT THIS EXACT SAME ISSUE. AFTER DOING MORE RESEARCH, THE 2007-2009 MODELS HAVE THE SAME FUEL TANK AND THE 2008 MODEL HAS BEEN RECALLED FOR THIS ISSUE. A 7 YEAR OLD CAR SHOULD NOT HAVE TO HAVE THE GAS TANK REPLACED, ESPECIALLY WHEN THIS IS NOTED AT THE SEAM. THIS MANUFACTURER DEFECT IS A SAFETY LIABILITY THAT FORD DOES NOT WANT TO CLAIM AND REFUSES TO PUT THE SAFETY OF IT'S CUSTOMERS ABOVE THE FINANCIAL BURDEN THIS WOULD CAUSE THEM. THE FUMES ALONE ARE TOXIC AND IF THERE WAS ANY TYPE OF SPARK ON THE ROADWAY, THIS COULD RESULT IN A FIRE, ACCIDENTS AND DEATH. IT'S SAD THAT AN AMERICAN COMPANY HAS SUCH POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE AND POOR SAFETY STANDARDS. THIS WILL BE THE LAST FORD VEHICLE THAT I WILL OWN. *TR

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

THE SMELL OF GASOLINE PROMPTED ME TO BRING MY FORD EDGE TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP. I WAS INFORMED THAT THE FUEL TANK RUSTED OUT AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I QUESTIONED THIS AS I HAVE OWNED FORD VEHICLES FOR TEN PLUS YEARS APIECE AND NEVER HAD THE PROBLEM. I WAS TOLD IT WAS NOT ABNORMAL. AFTER SEARCHING ONLINE I HAVE FOUND THIS TO BE A FREQUENT OCCURRENCE IN THE FORD EDGE VEHICLE. NOW, I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER THAT IT WAS UNSAFE TO DRIVE THIS CAR HOME DUE TO A FIRE HAZARD AND HAD TO RENT A VEHICLE RIGHT THEN AND THERE. FROM THE NUMBER OF ONLINE COMPLAINTS I HAVE READ, I BELIEVE THE FORD EDGE NEEDS TO BE DEEMED UNSAFE DUE TO THE FUEL TANK LEAKING PROBLEM. FORD NEEDS TO OWN UP TO THE FACT THAT THEY ARE PUTTING THEIR CUSTOMERS' LIVES IN DANGER BY NOT RECALLING AND CORRECTING THE FUEL TANKS IN THESE VEHICLES WHICH ARE OBVIOUSLY DEFECTIVE. NOT ONLY THAT, BUT THE ENVIRONMENTAL CONSEQUENCES OF LEAKING FUEL IS A DANGER TO EVERYONE. IT IS NECESSARY TO ALSO MENTION THAT MY VEHICLE WAS SOLD TO ME AS CERTIFIED PRE OWNED ONLY 3 YEARS AGO WITH THE MILEAGE AT 32,579. HOW ARE THEY PRECERTIFYING ? WITH COVER UPS???? SO, IN ESSENCE THE FACT THAT THEY PRECERTIFIED 3 YEARS AGO MEANS THIS PROBLEM EITHER OCCURRED WITHIN 3 YEARS OR THE PRECERTIFICATION WAS BOGUS, EITHER OF WHICH IS UNACCEPTABLE. ALSO, THEIR WARRANTY WHICH COMES WITH THE PRECERT STATES FEB. 2013 OR 100,00 MILES. THEY WILL NOT HONOR THE 100,00 MILES AS THEY SAY IT IS ONLY IF THE 100,00 MILES OCCURS BEFORE THE EXPIRATION DATE. IF THAT WERE TRULY THE CASE, THE WORDING SHOULD SAY "WHICH EVER COMES FIRST." CHECK OUT THE FORD MANUAL TO VERIFY THIS INFO. THEY ARE MISLEADING AND DECEPTIVE IN THEIR WARRANTY DEFINITION AS WELL AS THEIR VEHICLES. I HAVE ALWAYS OWNED A FORD - NEVER HAD A FUEL TANK PROBLEM, LOVED THE VEHICLES, BUT WILL NEVER PURCHASE ANOTHER ONE. THEY ARE SHADY AT BEST. *TR

A PERSON AT MY LOCAL FORD DEALER INFORMED ME THAT HE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH HIS EDGE. ALSO, I FOUND A USED FUEL TANK IN SEARCH FOR A REPLACEMENT, AND FOUND IT HAS THE SAME RUSTING PROBLEMS.
