2007 FORD EDGE Service Brakes Problems

The contact owns a 2007 Ford Edge. The contact stated while driving 30 MPH and attempting to depress the brake pedal, there was an abnormal clicking and popping sound coming from the brakes. No warning light was illuminated. An independent mechanic was contacted. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic to be diagnosed and it was determined that the wheel bearings and the brakes were loose on the passenger’s side of the vehicle. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 162,000.

Mileage: 162,000

# 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.

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.

The component of the cart is the lode shaft assembly consisting of axe shaft, boots and gaskets, The risk was to no longer control the brake, since at any moment I lost control and I was very affected. Yes, by a mechanic. Nop The ABS was turned on, CHECK ENGINE

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?

The booster went out needs replaced and on other sites it said it is recalled

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.

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.

Front passenger side brake caliper keeps going bad. We have replaced it 3 different times. No trouble out of driver side only passenger.

While driving on very hot days car would sputter and brakes would suddenly give out causing a burn smell under the hood and would cause my brake light bulb burn to the plastic pulled over got out to check the vehicle call explosed

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.

Mileage: 5

DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND ALL OF A SUDDEN MY BRAKE PEDAL GOT REAL SPONGY AND THEN SOUNDED LIKE AIR BLOWING THROUGH LINES. BARELY GOT HOME WITH MINIMAL BRAKE USAGE. I WAS DRIVING ON LEE ROAD LUCKILY NOT TOO FAR FROM MY HOME. ALSO FOG LIGHTS DON'T WORK. NOT SURE IF IT'S A SWITCH RELATED PROBLEM OR SOMETHING ELSE. IT ALSO FEELS LIKE THE TRANSMISSION IS ACTING UP LIKE THE CAR DOESN'T WANT TO GO ESPECIALLY IN REVERSE WITHOUT REALLY GETTING ON THE PEDAL. AND IT ROLLS BACKWARDS ON HILLS LIKE IT'S A MANUAL TRANSMISSION

Mileage: 227,000

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.

WHEN MAKING A STOP OR ALREADY STOPPED, THE BRAKE PEDAL GETS VERY HARD TO PUSH. WHEN HITTING THE GAS THERE IS SOME RESISTANCE. I NOTICE THE BRAKE PEDAL GETS STUCK. IN ORDER TO UNSTICK IT, I HAVE TO PUT MY FOOT UNDER THE BREAK TO POP IT UP.

Mileage: 123,000

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.

Mileage: 167,000

ONE DAY ALL OF A SUDDEN WHEN DEPRESSED THE BRAKES HEARD A AIR LIKE SOUND FROM THE UNDER DASH, WHEN TRYING TO STOP THE VEHICLE HAD A STOPPING INSTANTLY AND THEN RELEASE LIKE I COULDN'T STOP THE VEHICLE.REALLY I PANIC CAUSE I COULDN'T STOP..SO I HAD MY HUSBAND TAKE IT TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME IT WAS THE BRAKE BOOSTER GONE BAD..IT COST ME A LOT OF MONEY, SO I ASKED WAS THERE A RECALL THEY SAD NO..I HAVE HAD OTHER PEOPLES THAT HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THEIR FORD EDGE. *TR

Mileage: 125,156

I JUST HAD NEW BRAKES PUT ON MY CAR. A FEW DAYS AFTER THE BRAKES WERE VERY SPONGY AND FELT LIKE THEY WOULD NOT WORK. THEY ALSO MADE A LOUD HIGH PITCHED NOISE. MY MECHANIC LOOKED MY CAR OVER AND SAID IT WAS THE BRAKE BOOSTERS.

Mileage: 191,000

WHILE I WAS OUT DRIVING TO GET MY INSPECTION DONE MY CAR WOULD NOT STOP THE BRAKES WERE VERY HARD TO PUSH LIKE I WAS STANDING UP ON IT SO I'VE WENT TO GO GET THE BRAKES REPLACE BEFORE THE INSPECTION AND THE BRAKES WERE STILL HARD TO PUSH THAT'S WHEN THE MACHANIC HAD TRIED AND INFORMED ME THAT IT'S NOT THE BRAKES AND MY CAR IS UNABLE TO STOP EVEN DRIVING AT A VERY LOW SPEED MY CAR WAS CLOSE TO OVER TURNING DUE TO NOT BEING ABLE TO STOP WITH NEW BREAKS THAT'S WHEN I WAS INFORMED IT'S THE BREAK BOOSTER

I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE BRAKE BOOSTER, FRONT BRAKES AND REAR BRAKES. THERE HAS BEEN SEVERAL RECALLS ON THE 2007 BRAKE BOOSTERS FOR THIS YEAR/MODEL BUT APPARENTLY FORD WILL NOT REIMBURSE ME $982.05 BECAUSE MY VIN NUMBER WASN'T INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. I WOULD LIKE REIMBURSEMENT FOR THIS COST.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH APPROACHING AN INTERSECTION, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS APPLIED, BUT FAILED TO RESPOND WITHOUT WARNING. THE BRAKES RESUMED NORMAL OPERATION AFTER THREE TO FIVE SECONDS. THE DEALER (GABRIEL/JORDAN FORD, 2400 U S HIGHWAY 59 S, LIVINGSTON, TX 77351, (936)327-4327) WAS CONTACTED, BUT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND CONFIRMED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL. THE CONTACT WAS REFERRED TO NHTSA TO FILE A COMPLAINT. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 124,000.

Mileage: 124,000

I HAVE MY CAR IN THE SHOP GETTING BRAKE BOOSTER REPLACED AT $900, FORD HAS A CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM 13N02 THAT COVERS NEWER CARS. LOOKING ON-LINE THIS ISSUE IS PREVALENT AND I BELIEVE THIS SHOULD BE LOOKED AT AS A RECALL, NO BRAKES. ALTHOUGH NEARLY COMPLETE LOSS OF BRAKES ONLY HAPPENED RECENTLY I BELIEVE THIS ISSUE MAY HAVE BEEN BUILDING FOR YEARS. I ALWAYS NOTICED OTHER VEHICLES HAD (TO ME) MUCH TOUCHIER BRAKES. I NOW BELIEVE THAT THE OTHER VEHICLES WEREN'T TOUCHIER, IT WAS MY CAR THAT HAD LOW BRAKING. FROM WHAT I HAVE BEEN READING IT SEEMS THAT THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALL ISSUE YEARS AGO BUT YET IT'S ANOTHER COVER UP BY A CAR MANUFACTURER.

Mileage: 140,000

MY BRAKES ACT LIKE THEY ARE STUCK A LOCAL MECHANIC TOLD ME IT WAS MY BRAKE BOOSTER I TRIED TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP AND THEY WOULD NOT WORK I ALMOST HAD AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE OF THE ISSUE.

BRAKE BOOSTER LEAKAGE, ON THE HIGHWAY THE BRAKES ACTUALLY WAS SO HARD TO DEPRESS WHEN COMING UP UPON A VEHICLE AT THE LIGHT I HAD TO PUMP THE BRAKES TO GET IT TOO STOP,,,,,,SO FINALLY THE BRAKES GRABBED STOPPING THE VEHICLE IN A SUDDEN STOP. THE BRAKE PADEL WENT TO THE FLOOR MAKING A WHISPERING SOUND.

Mileage: 146,590

WHILE DRIVING ON A STRAIGHT ROADWAY, I APPLIED THE BRAKES TO COME TO A STOP AND HAD TO APPLY EXTREME PRESSURE TO GET THE VEHICLE TO SLOW DOWN AND COME TO A DEAD STOP. MY 105 LB. DAUGHTER COULD NOT HAVE STOPPED THIS VEHICLE IN TIME AND WOULD HAVE CRASHED. I DROVE SLOWLY TO MY REPAIR SHOP, WHERE THE MECHANIC CHECKED THE BRAKES AND ADVISED ME THAT THE POWER BRAKE BOOSTER HAD FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. HE ADVISED ME TO REPORT THIS SERIOUS AND POSSIBLY DEADLY PROBLEM TO FORD AND THE FEDERAL SAFETY BOARD.

BRAKE BOOSTER IS FAILING. I AM EXPERIENCING POOR BRAKING, AND HISSING NOISE WHEN I DEPRESS BRAKE. THERE IS A CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM 13N02 BUT MY VIN DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE PART OF THE PROGRAM. LOOKING AT VARIOUS FORUMS, THIS APPEARS TO BE A MAJOR ISSUE WITH SEVERAL YEARS OF FORD EDGE VEHICLES IMPACTED. I AM REQUESTING THAT NHTSA LOOK INTO THE MATTER.

A HISSING SOUND WHEN BRAKES WERE PRESS DONE WHEN SPONGY. THEN GOT EXTREMELY HARD TO PRESS. STILL MAKES HISSING OR AIR SOUND DIAPHRAGM AND BRAKE BOOSTER I'VE BEEN TOLD. FORD COVERS SOME MODELS FOR THIS PROBLEM BUT NOT MINE AND THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS

Mileage: 80,000

MY 2007 FORD EDGE IS HAVING THE SAME BRAKE ISSUES AS DESCRIBED IN THE FORD CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM 13N02 BRAKE BOOSTER ISSUE FOR FORD EDGE 2011-2013. WHY ISNT THIS EXPANDED. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE. I ALMOST COULDNT STOP MY CAR TWICE TODAY! TWICE! ITS SO SCARY TO BE PRESSING DOWN ON IT AND NOTHING HAPPENING. IT HAS A HISSING SOUND AS WELL. THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED! I WAS DRIVING WITH MY KIDS AT 20 MILES AN HOUR, THANK GOODNESS IT WASNT FASTER!

Mileage: 113,870

BRAKE BOOSTER RECALL- I BARELY HAD THIS TRUCK A YEAR, AND THE BRAKES ARE GIVING ME MAJOR PROBLEMS. WHEN I PRESS THE PEDAL. ITS HARD, AND I HAVE TO ALMOST STAND UP ON IT TO STOP THE VEHICLE. I'VE HAD THE PADS AND ROTORS REPLACED, AND THAT'S NOT THE PROBLEM. I STARTED DOING RESEARCH AND FOUND OUT THAT THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE BRAKE BOOSTER.

BRAKES ARE EXTREMELY HARD TO PRESS, I'M BASICALLY HAVING TO STAND UP ON THEM. THEN THE CAR STILL MOVES FORWARD A LITTLE. I CANNOT LET UP OFF THE BRAKE AT ALL AT A STOPLIGHT BECAUSE THE CAR BEGINS TO ROLL.

BRAKE BOOSTER: HEARD HISSING SOUND UPON BRAKING. WAS STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN, THEN BRAKES BEGAN TO FAIL AND CAR STARTED TO MOVE AGAIN. HAD TO PRESS HARDER ON THE BRAKE TO GET THE CAR TO STOP. THIS HAPPENED TWO DAYS IN A ROW. DEALER DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM. THIS IS A 2007 FORD EDGE SE AWD THAT I PURCHASED IN 2009. I REPLACED THE BRAKE BOOSTER IN 2010 AND NOW AGAIN IN 2017 IT HAS FAILED AGAIN. I WANT FORD MOTOR COMPANY TO RECALL THIS VEHICLE FOR THIS REASON. I WANT MY MONEY BACK FOR THE FIRST REPLACEMENT AND WANT THEM TO COVER THE CURRENT REPLACEMENT. THIS ISSUE IS VERY DANGEROUS AS I COULD'VE GOTTEN INTO TWO CAR ACCIDENTS. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE!!!

Mileage: 91,000

MY BRAKE BOOSTER SYSTEM IS FAILING. I HAVE REPLACED EVERY OTHER BRAKE COMPONENT WITH OEM EQUIPMENT AND NO CHANGE. MY VEHICLE IS VERY UNSAFE TO DRIVE AS THE BRAKE PEDAL IS AS SOLID AS A ROCK AND HAS THE FEELING OF "SLIDING ON ICE" YEAR ROUND. THIS PROBLEM HAS PROGRESSED DRAMATICALLY AND QUICKLY. A VERY LOUD HISSING AS IF AIR IS LEAKING BY THE BRAKE PEDAL OCCURS WHEN BRAKING. ABS LIGHTS DO NOT COME ON AND NOTHING ELSE IS AFFECTED SAFETY WISE. VEHICLE SIMPLY BRAKED POORLY AND FEELS LIKE IT WILL NOT STOP. FORD HAS CREATED A "CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM" FOR MY EXACT ISSUE BUT WILL NOT APPLY THEIR WARRANTY/RECALL HELP TO MY VEHICLE DUE TO THE YEAR (2007). THEY SAID IF IT WAS A 2010 OR NEWER THEY WOULD TAKE CARE OF IT. IM HAVING THE EXACT SAME ISSUE WITH THE SAME PARTS CONSUMERS HAVE WITH THE 2010 MODELS AND NEWER. ITS RIDICULOUS THAT FORD CAN EXCLUDE ME FROM SOMETHING THEY ARE ACCEPTING FAULT FOR. THIS IS CUSTOMER SATISFACTION AT ITS WORST. I WANT FORD TO FIX MY BRAKE BOOSTER AND SYSTEM COMPONENTS AS NEEDED TO SAFELY BRAKE ON PUBLIC ROADS.

NO KNOWN BRAKE ISSUE BEFORE AND CAR WAS RECENTLY GIVEN A MAJOR SERVICE CHECK. NO BRAKE ISSUES WERE FOUND DURING THAT CHECK. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION WHEN NOTICED HISSING SOUND AND BRAKE FOOT PEDAL GOING TO THE FLOOR WHEN APPLYING BREAKS. WENT IN FIRST IN APRIL AND BRAKE BOOSTER SYSTEM WAS REPLACED. RECALL WAS NEWER MODEL EDGES SO WE HAD TO PAY OUT OF POCKET. WENT BACK IN LESS THAN 90 DAYS LATER IN JULY BECAUSE BRAKES WERE NOT FILLING RIGHT AGAIN. MASTER CYLINDER LEAK WAS FOUND. WAS NOT FOUND THE FIRST TIME SO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT GAVE US A MANAGER DISCOUNT. BRAKE BOOSTER BLEED AND MASTER CYLINDER LEAK. REPLACED BRAKE BOOSTER SYSTEM ($961.38) AND MASTER CYLINDER ($290.23). I FEEL THAT THE BREAK BOOSTER SYSTEM AND CONNECTION TO MASTER CYLINDER SHOULD BE PART OF RECALL FOR THIS MODEL EDGE. SINCE BRAKE ISSUES WERE NOT FOUND IN AN EARLIER MASTER SERVICE (I CAN SEND THAT INVOICE AS WELL), I THINK THE BRAKE SYSTEM WAS BOUND TO FAIL AS I HAVE READ IN THE RECALL FOR NEWER MODELS.

Mileage: 84,917

I HAVE A 2007 FORD EDGE SEL PLUS THAT IS IN FOR A BRAKE BOOSTER REPLACEMENT AND FORD WILL NOT COVER THE REPAIR EVEN THOUGH THEIR IS A EXTENDED WARRANTY OFFERED TO NEWER CARS 2010 AND ABOVE. THE PART NUMBER FOR 2007 AND A 2010 IS THE SAME SO THE PART IS BAD ON BOTH VEHICLES. ON MY VEHICLE WE LOST PARTIAL BRAKING AND IT ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY. I CALLED FOR WITH NO HELP THEY REFUSE TO COVER THE PART OR LABOR . THE EXTENDED WARRANTY FORD ISSUED IS 13NO2 BUT THEY WILL ONLY HONOR FOR 2010 OR NEWER EVEN THOUGH THE PART IS THE SAME 2010-2012.

TEAR IN BRAKE BOOSTER DIAPHRAGM. COVERED IN MANY OTHER FORD EDGE MODELS OF THE SAME YEAR, BUT FOR SOME REASON NOT MINE. HOWEVER, FORD DOES NOT SEEM ABLE TO PROVIDE ME AN EXPLANATION AS TO WHY NOT MY CAR SPECIFICALLY. WAS DRIVING AND WHEN BRAKES WERE APPLIED, THEY FELT LIKE A ROCK...THEN WENT TO FEELING SUPER SOFT, WITH A HISSING SOUND EVERY TIME THEY WERE APPLIED. BRAKES ALTERNATED BETWEEN FEELING ROCK HARD TO SUPER SOFT WITH HISSING AND I WAS ALMOST UNABLE TO BRAKE SEVERAL TIMES. VERY SCARY AND DANGEROUS. WHEN CAR WAS PARKED (NOT MOVING), BUT TURNED ON AND BRAKE APPLIED, THERE WAS A LOUD SQUEAL SOUND EACH TIME.

Mileage: 130,000

VERY HESITANT TO PICK UP SPEED AT TIMES, BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY ON 2 OCCASIONS OUT SIDE OF A WEEK , I WAS NOT ABLE TO STOP, MY BREAK PEDAL WOULD DO ANYTHING, IT WOULDN'T GO DOWN FOR ME TO STOP, THE 1ST TIME I WAS DRIVING AND TRIED TO STOP AT A STOP SIGN AND COULDNT STOP THE SECOND TIME WAS ON A BUSY HWY AND I ALMOST HIT A CAR AT A STOP LIGHT, BECAUSE MY BREAKS DIDNT WORK. . AND YES I HAVE HAD MY BREAKS AND ROTORS REPLACED THINKING THAT WAS THE PROBLEM BUT OBVIOUSLY IT WASNT, I TALKED TO A MECHANIC AT THE FORD DEALER AND MY PERSONAL MECHANIC AND BOTH HAVE TOLD ME THEY HAVE HAD LOTS OF COMPLAINTS REGARDING THE SAME THING. NOW I HAVE TO ASK A FRIEND TO RIDE ME BACK AND FORTH TO WORK , BECAUSE I AM AFRAID TO USE MY CAR IN FEAR OF KILLING MYSELF OR SOMEONE ELSE.

I FIRST BEGAN TO NOTICE THIS ISSUE WHEN MY 2007 FORD EDGE, WITH 85,000 MILES AT THE TIME, CREATED A HISSING NOISE FROM BEHIND THE STEERING COLUMN AREA WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS PRESSED. EVER SINCE OWNING THIS VEHICLE THE BRAKE PEDAL FELT EXTREMELY SPONGY BUT I ALWAYS ASSUMED IT WAS THE DESIGN OF THE VEHICLE. AFTER THE PEDAL HAD BECOME EVEN SOFTER AND THE CAR BECAME HARDER TO STOP ALONG WITH LOUDER HISSING, I REALIZED THERE WAS A PROBLEM. I DON'T CONSIDER HAVING TO ALMOST STAND ON MY BRAKE PEDAL IN QUICK STOPPING SITUATIONS VERY NORMAL. I HAD THE VEHICLE LOOKED AT BY MY LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP SERVICE CENTER. THEY CONFIRMED THAT MY POWER BRAKE BOOSTER HAS A FAIRLY LARGE TEAR IN IT WHICH WILL ONLY GET WORSE AND EVENTUALLY FAIL UNEXPECTEDLY. I WAS TOLD THE COST TO REPLACE THIS BRAKE BOOSTER WAS ABOUT $1000 OR EVEN A LITTLE OVER. BEING A COLLEGE STUDENT WITH AN EXTREMELY TIGHT BUDGET, REPAIRING THIS IS OUT OF THE QUESTION. HAVING PREVIOUSLY PAID OUT-OF-POCKET FOR THE NUMEROUS OTHER REPAIRS ON THIS VEHICLE INCLUDING MULTIPLE PREMATURE IGNITION COIL FAILURES, BOTH MY SAVINGS AND PATIENCE WITH FORD HAVE DRIED UP. I HAVE CONTACTED FORD MOTOR COMPANY MULTIPLE TIMES ABOUT THIS ISSUE ONLY TO BE FED LIES TO LEAD ME ON UNTIL THEY CAN END THE CONVERSATION IN HOPES I WILL FORGET THE WHOLE THING. I AM FULLY AWARE THERE ARE MANY OTHER EDGE OWNERS FACING THIS SAME SITUATION OR EVEN WORSE AND I CANNOT EVEN BEGIN TO UNDERSTAND WHY NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE. SO NOW, AT 95,000 MILES, I WAIT FOR THE DAY THAT MY BRAKE BOOSTER COMPLETELY FAILS LEAVING ME WITH NO POWER BRAKES. WHEN THIS DOES HAPPEN, AT THIS POINT I CAN ONLY HOPE IT WRECKS AND IS TOTALED, AS THAT IS THE ONLY FORESEEABLE WAY OUT OF THIS MESS. *TR

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 MY 2007 FORD EDGE SLE, I NOTICED THE BRAKES STARTED FEELING LIKE THEY WHERE FADING. WHEN I HAD TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP AT A STOP SIGN, AT FIRST I DIDN'T FEEL THE VEHICLE WAS GOING TO STOP AT ALL. I HAD TO PRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL EXTREMELY HARD, AND ALSO USED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. DURING THIS I COULD HEAR A HISSING NOISE THAT WAS UNUSUAL COMING FROM UNDER THE DASH. AFTER INVESTIGATION I FOUND FORD HAS KNOWN ABOUT THIS PROBLEM SINCE 2009, OR MAYBE EARLIER, AND DONE NOTHING TO CORRECT IT. THEY NOW HAVE A " CUSTOMER SATISFACTION " BULLETIN OUT, BUT IT ONLY COVERS 2010-2013 MODEL YEARS, WITH CERTAIN VIN # CODES. MY ENTIRE FAMILY HAS ALWAYS DRIVEN FORD PRODUCTS, BUT THE WAY SUNBELT FORD OF AMERICUS GA. HAS TREATED US WITH THIS PROBLEM, THAT IS ABOUT TO CHANGE. THIS VEHICLE IS STILL LOW MILEAGE, GARAGE KEPT, & AS CLEAN AS BRAND NEW. WE HAVE RELIGIOUSLY KEPT IT SERVICED, AND IN PERFECT SHAPE. WITH A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH SOMETHING AS MAJOR AS BRAKES, AND FORD WON'T STAND BEHIND THEIR PROBLEM, INDICATES TO ME THEY ARE NOT THE COMPANY THEY USED TO BE, & THEY HAVE NO REGARDS FOR DEDICATED CUSTOMERS OF OVER 40 YEARS. JUST MYSELF, SPOUSE, & OUR 3 SONS HAVE PURCHASED OVER 35 BRAND NEW FORD VEHICLES SINCE 1990 RANGING FROM MUSTANGS, TO EXPLORERS, TO F-350S. THANKS FORD FOR SHOWING US HOW MUCH YOU VALUE YOUR CUSTOMERS.

THE PROBLEM CONTINUED AFTER WHICH I REPLACED REAR ROTORS AND PADS WITH NO OR LITTLE IMPROVEMENT. I ALSO WAS CONCERNED THAT WHEN MY BRAKES WERE APPLIED SUDDENLY NOT ONLY WAS THE VEHICLE SLOW IN STOPPING(TOOK LONGER THAN USUAL STOPPING DISTANCE) BUT DID NOT FEEL ABS ACCENTUATE. A FRIEND AND FORMER FORD MECHANIC SUGGESTED IT MAY BE MY BRAKE BOOSTER. SO I REPLACED THE BRAKE BOOSTER AND PEDAL SEEMED TOO SOFT BUT CAR STOOPED BETTER AND SHORTER, BUT WITHOUT APPLYING HARD AND SUDDEN BRAKE PRESSURE ABS SEEMS TO PREMATURELY ACTIVATE. THE MECHANIC TOLD ME TO CHECK FOR POSSIBLE RECALL OR PROBLEMS WITH CHECK VALVE/ABS. UPON CHECKING FOUND IDENTICAL COMPLAINTS FOR SAME YEAR MAKE AND MODEL VEHICLE, WHICH CUSTOMER SAYS FORD EVENTUALLY CORRECTED THE PROBLEM BUT CALLED IT "CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM 13N02 INSTEAD OF RECALL. THE CAR WAS A 2007 FORD SEL PLUS ,MY CAR IS 2007 FORD SEL. I CONTACTED FORD TODAY(11/24/2015) CONCERNING A RECALL ON FUEL TANK FOR MY VIN AND TOLD THEM THE PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKES. THEY SAID THOUGH THEY FIXED OTHER VEHICLE MY VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. MY CONCERNED IS THAT ,THOUGH IT MAY BE COINCIDENTAL BUT STRANGE I HAVE SAME PROBLEM WITH SAME MAKE MODEL AND YEAR. THEY ISSUED ME A CASE # CAS-8279603. MY CONCERN ALSO IS THAT NOT ONLY I MAY HAVE A SAFETY ISSUE ENDANGERING MYSELF BUT ALSO OTHERS. PLUS THERE MAY HAVE BEEN OTHERS WITH SIMILAR IF NOT SAME PROBLEM AND REPAIRED IT THEMSELVES RATHER THAN INVESTIGATE ISSUE. THE MECHANIC ALSO STATED IT MAY ALSO BE NECESSARY TO CHECK OR REPLACE MASTER CYLINDER. SO AS OF NOW I'M DRIVING LESS AND ONLY SHORT DISTANCES UNLESS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY . THE PROBLEM HAD BEEN ON GOING FOR ABOUT 6 MOS. TIL I REPLACED BOOSTER ON ON 15TH OR 16TH OF NOV 2015.

WHILE DRIVING WITH MY CHILDREN I PRESSED THE BREAK TO STOP IN TRAFFIC AND ALMOST RAN INTO THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME BECAUSE MY BRAKES BECAME VERY HARD AND I HAD TO PRESS THEM DOWN TO THE GROUND PRACTICALLY TO STOP. TOOK VEHICLE TO A LOCAL SHOP AND WAS TOLD MY BRAKE BOOSTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. WAS TOLD THERE HAVE BEEN ISSUES LIKE THIS WITH FORD MODELS IN THE PAST. AFTER BASIC INTERNET RESEARCH FOUND THERE WAS A RECALL FOR NEWER MODELS BUT NOT MY MODEL. CONTACTED FORD MOTOR COMPANY DIRECTLY AND WAS TOLD THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO FOR ME BECAUSE THERE ISN'T A RECALL ON MY YEAR, MAKE, MODEL EVEN THOUGH THERE ARE A NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TO OTHER 2007 FORD EDGES NOT ONCE, BUT EVEN AFTER HAVING BOOSTER REPLACED. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED THAT FORD IS NOT WILLING TO STEP UP AND MAKE RECALL FOR 2007 FORD EDGES WHEN IT IS CLEAR THERE ARE MULTIPLE PEOPLE ALL OVER THE COUNTRY THAT HAVE BEEN AFFECTED BY THIS. I AM THANKFUL I DID NOT GET INTO AN ACCIDENT WITH MY CHILDREN IN THE VEHICLE WITH ME AND AM GOING TO FIX MY VEHICLE BUT THINK IT IS FORD WHO SHOULD BE RECTIFYING THIS SITUATION, NOT MY OWN POCKET!

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.

I KEPT HEARING A STRANGE NOISE WHEN I APPLIED MY BRAKES. WHEN I TOOK THE VEHICLE IN THEIR DIAGNOSIS WAS THAT A PIN WAS BREAKING ON THE FRONT CALIPER ON THE FRONT RIGHT TIRE. THEY REPLACED THE PIN, RIGHT FRONT WHEEL BEARING ASSEMBLY, AND HUB. THEY REPLACED THE FRONT BRAKE PADS AND INSPECTED THE BRAKE SYSTEM. HUB ASSEMBLY WAS "WOBBLING" CAUSING THE PINS TO BREAK AND CAUSED MY BRAKE PADS TO RUIN. *TR

I WAS DRIVING ON A LOCAL HIGHWAY WITH CRUISE CONTROL ON AND A MERGING TRUCK FORCED ME TO TAKE THE CAR OF CRUISE AND THE PEDAL WAS SO HARD I COULDN'T AT FIRST AND IM A 250 LB GUY WAS GLAD MY WIFE WAS NOT DRIVING. SINCE THEN IT HAS BECOME MUCH WORSE AND APPEARS THE BRAKE BOOSTER HAS FAILED. WITH VERY LITTLE RESEARCH THIS LOOKS LIKE AN ISSUE WITH THIS MODEL YEAR AND SEVERAL OTHERS. I TRAVEL HIGHWAY A LOT SO MY MILEAGE IS HIGHER THAN MOST OF THIS AGE AND MAY ALSO BE WHY IT DIDN'T SHOW EARLIER. THE BOOSTER LOSES PRESSURE FAST ENOUGH TO BE A REAL HAZARD TO DRIVE YOU HAVE TO STAND ON THE PEDAL TO GET YOUR BRAKES TO WORK. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR OFF THE ROAD TILL I CAN FIX IT CANT AFFORD FORDS REPAIR COSTS 580+ BUT SOME MAY TRY TO DRIVE IT AND THEY WILL GET IN AN ACCIDENT. *TR

TOOK TO LOCAL DEALER WHERE THEY REPLACED THE MASTER BRAKE BOOSTER. THIS WAS AT 61000 AND WAS NOT UNDER WARRANTY. JUST TODAY APRIL 15, 2014 IT HAPPENED AGAIN. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND RECEIVED THE SAME PROGNOSIS, THE MASTER BRAKE BOOSTER IS BAD. THE CAR CURRENTLY HAS 120000 ON IT, KIND OF ODD THAT IT WAS NEARLY THE SAME DURATION FOR THE SECOND ONE TO GO BAD. THIS TIME THE COST IS NEARLY DOUBLE THAT OF LAST TIME.

I WAS DRIVING ALONG AND ATTEMPTED TO STOP AT A RED LIGHT. MY BRAKES SUDDENLY BECAME EXTREMELY RESISTANT TO MY FOOT PRESSURE AND A HIGH PITCHED SQUEALING NOISE ACCOMPANIED THE SITUATION. I WAS NOT ABLE TO STOP IMMEDIATELY BUT MANAGED TO ESCAPE A COLLISION WITH ONCOMING TRAFFIC. I DROVE MY VEHICLE, CAUTIOUSLY, TO A FORD DEALERSHIP AND THE MECHANIC DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM (BRAKE BOOSTER) IMMEDIATELY. HE STATED HE HAD TWO 2007 FORD EDGE VEHICLES IN THE SHOP WITH THE SAME PROBLEM (BAD BRAKE BOOSTER). THE INTERNET IS FLOODED WITH THIS ISSUE IN THE FORD EDGE. I AND MANY OTHERS HAVE BEEN EFFECTED FINANCIALLY AND EMOTIONALLY. A RECALL ON THE BREAK BOOSTER IS NECESSARY TO PREVENT FURTHER INJURY AND FINANCIAL LOSS TO FORD CUSTOMERS. *TR

I HAD MY FRONT AND BACK BRAKE PADS CHANGED, THEY BLED THE LINE AND I NOTICED THAT THE BRAKES WERE EXTREMELY SOFT - PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. HAD THE LINE REBLED AND SAME THING. TOOK IT IN TO MY MECHANIC AND THE POWER BRAKE BOOSTER HAD GONE OUT. CALLED DEALERSHIP AND THEY HAD NONE IN STOCK AND THEY WERE ON BACK ORDER - ONLY 3 DEALERSHIPS IN HOUSTON AREA HAD ONE. FOUND ONE AT A DEALERSHIP ON THE OTHER SIDE OF TOWN, BOUGHT IT AND HAD THE MECHANIC INSTALL IT, REBLEED THE BRAKE LINE. NOW THE PEDAL WOULD BE STIFF AND HARD TO PRESS DOWN TO GET TRUCK TO STOP. TOOK IT BACK IN AND HAD THE LINE REBLED AND THE ROTORS RE-TURNED. THAT DID THE TRICK AND IT HAS WORKED FINE SINCE. *TR

WHILE DRIVING I NOTICES THAT WHEN PRESSING ON THE BRAKES THAT THE BRAKE PEDAL WOULD GO ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR MAKING IT VERY DIFFICULT TO STOP.

GOT THE CARD TO A SERVICE CENTER AND AFTER A COMPLETE CHECK BY THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN I WAS TOLD THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER WAS BAD AND THAT IT WAS PREVENTING BRAKE FLOOD TO FLOW THE BRAKES. I COST ME $680.00 TO FIX THE PROBLEM. I WENT ONLINE AND IT SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH 2007 FORD EDGE VEHICLES AND THAT MANY OTHER CUSTOMERS ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. LUCKILY I WASN'T DRIVING FAST AND NO ONE WAS IN FRONT OF ME WHILE DRIVING OR I COULD HAVE CRASHED WITHOUT THE USE MY BRAKES. FORD NEEDS TO ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM IF THEY HAVEN'T ALREADY. HAS THERE BEEN A FORD RECALL TO ADDRESS THE BRAKE PROBLEMS WITH THE 2007 FORD EDGE? *TR

AFTER EXITING THE RAMP AND APPROACHING A STOP LIGHT IT WAS APPARENT THAT I HAD NO "REAL" BRAKES..AGAIN PEDAL TO THE FLOOR WITH A VERY LONG DISTANCE TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. AT THIS TIME I COULD HEAR A VERY LOUD KIND OF WHISTLING SOUND COMING FROM THE PEDAL WHEN I APPLIED THE BRAKES..AGAIN TO THE FLOOR. AS I PULLED INTO A PARKING LOT IT FELT LIKE I LOST ALL CONTROL ...ALMOST LIKE NO POWER AT ALL TO STOP THE CAR. THIS HAS BEEN REPORTED TO FORD..MY MECHANIC SAID IT WAS THE BRAKE BOOSTER. *TR

UPON INSPECTION I DISCOVERED THAT THE INNER BRAKE PADS ON BOTH FRONT BRAKES WERE TOTALLY WORN OUT AND GRINDING ON THE METAL WHILE THE OUTER PADS HAD PLENTY OF BRAKE MATERIAL LEFT. THE ROTORS WERE RUINED! THE REAR BRAKE PADS ALSO HAD PLENTY OF MATERIAL LEFT. THIS IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE AND DANGEROUS. *TT
