2008 FORD EDGE Power Train Problems

Rear driveshaft support failed while driving. A lot of smoke, noise and very bad vibration. Was traveling at a low speed(25mph). If the driveshaft had come apart, it could have easily caused damage to the body and its passengers. It also could've struck and damaged any vehicles near by. After speaking to the Ford dealer, they dais that it was a fairly common occurrence, which surprised me. Thanks for reading my complaint.

The transmission randomly gets stuck in 1st gear and won’t shift beyond that. The RPMs rev up real high and the only way to fix it is to pull off the road and turn the car off and back on. The transmission also bumps really hard shifting sometimes or revs up real high before shifting with a big thud. The dealership says they can’t diagnose it if it’s not doing it when I bring it in. They said the same thing about my alternator when it kept going out on me driving. They never could get it to mess up when they had it.

The contact owned a 2008 Ford Edge. The contact stated that the while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle inadvertently vibrated and jumped. No warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the passenger’s side CV axle seal and lower ball joint failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure recurred. The contact was informed that the parts to do the repair had failed. The dealer was not notified of the failure. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and the contact was informed that the repair required an unknown kit. The failure mileage was unavailable.

Vehicle Hard Steering when drove Ford-from lot- Always something wrong with brakes-wheel bearings- wheels- Alignment Electrical Lightning for entire vehicle- Sunroof also included in malfunctions *Main SAFETY concern Front end / tranny Grinding amongst other noises

The contact owns a 2008 Ford Edge. The contact stated while approaching a stop sign, the vehicle lost motive power and stalled without warning. The contact was able to pull over on the side of the road, but the vehicle would not restart. The vehicle was towed to the dealer for diagnostic testing, but no failure was found. The contact stated that the failure persisted. On another occasion, while driving, the vehicle experienced hard shifting to 2nd gear and a delay in upshifting to the next gear. The manufacturer was contacted and stated there was no recall on the vehicle for the failure and advised the contact to file a complaint with the NHTSA Hotline. The approximate failure mileage was 120,000.

Mileage: 120,000

Transmission slipping like all the other complaints, should be a recall for sure after looking through all the same issues in this year of Ford Edge around 78K miles.

I own a 2008 Ford edge awd limited and yesterday while getting on the interstate my vehicle made a loud clunking sound I immediately pulled over I had it towed to the house and once it was evaluated we discovered that there was a crack in the transmission housing there was no prior signs of the problem when we started the vehicle and put it in reverse it wouldn't move killed the vehicle started back and put it in reverse and it moved but I will have to change the housing if not the whole transmission

The contact owns a 2008 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds the vehicle would not properly accelerate and the engine would misfire. Also on occasions, the check engine light had illuminated and the speed would not increase past 10 mph. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer who diagnosed that the input-out sensor in the transmission was faulty causing the ignition coil to melt. The contact indicated that the PCM was also faulty. The vehicle was repaired but the failures continued to occur. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 50,000.

Mileage: 50,000

HERE WE ARE YEARS LATER AND STILL THE SAME ISSUES....LOSS OF POWER WITHOUT WARNING, SHUTS OFF WITH NO WARNING. BANGS WHEN SHIFTING, VERY ROUGH SHIFTING. FEELS LIKE ITS IN 1ST GEAR AND THEN SHIFTS ROUGHLY INTO GEAR, OR I HAVE TO STOP SHUT IT OFF AND START AGAIN. I SEE ALOT OF THE SAME COMPLAINT AND NO RECALL? ITS GETTIN STUPID NOW! THIS SHOULD BE RECALLED, IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE!

VEHICLE STALLED WHILE REVERSING INTO A PARKING SPOT. BARELY STARTED. STALLED A FEW SECONDS LATER AFTER COMPLETING THE REVERSE INTO PARKING SPOT. BARELY STARTED AGAIN. GOT ON THE ROAD AND DRIVING FINE A FEW HUNDRED FEET, VEHICLE STALLED ALMOST RAN INTO A GROUP OF PARKED VEHICLES. BARELY STARTED AGAIN. MADE IT TO THE HIGHWAY TO GO HOME AND WHILE DRIVING AT JUST UNDER 55MPH LIMIT VEHICLE STALLS IN THE PASSING LANE. ALMOST CAUSED A WRECK WITH SEVERAL VEHICLES INCLUDING A SEMI. DIDN'T START FOR A FEW MINUTES. VEHICLE STUTTERED TO START AND BARELY TURNED OVER. AFTER IT STARTED I SAT THERE AND WATCHED THE TACHOMETER, IT WOULD, WITHOUT MYSELF TOUCHING OR DOING ANYTHING, IDLE THEN JUMP A LITTLE AND DIP A LITTLE OVER AND OVER. THERE SEEMS TO BE NO CERTAIN SITUATION OR REASONING FOR WHEN, WHERE OR WHY IT WOULD STALL, COMPLETE RANDOMNESS! HIGHWAY DRIVING, SLOW STOP AND GO CITY DRIVING, REVERSING, IT SEEMS TO DO IT COMPLETELY RANDOMLY AND UNEXPECTEDLY BUT ALWAYS WHILE MOVING ONE DIRECTION OR THE OTHER. STRAIGHT LINE, TURNING, FAST, SLOW, DIDN'T MAKE A DIFFERENCE. FINALLY WAS ABLE TO GET OFF THE HIGHWAY, CAME INTO TOWN AND I WAS ABLE TO STOP AT ALL THE LIGHTS AND GO BUT THEN OUT OF NO WHERE AGAIN DOING CLOSE TO THE 35MPH LIMIT IT STALLS AGAIN AND THIS TIME I WAS AT A 6 WAY INTERSECTION AND ALMOST HIT ANOTHER MOVING VEHICLE. MY FAMILY WILL NOT BE RIDING IN THIS VEHICLE AGAIN UNTIL SOMETHING IS DONE! THIS IS NOT NORMAL OR SAFE! NOT FOR ME OR ANYONE ELSE ON THE ROADWAY! I HAVE NO CLUE AS TO WHAT THE ISSUE COULD BE EXCEPT THAT IT'S THE MANUFACTURERS ISSUE. IT DOESN'T MAKE ANY SINCE. VEHICLE HAS NEVER BEEN WRECKED, ABOVE AVERAGE MAINTENANCE INTERVALS, COMPLETELY MAINTAINED BUT THIS IS SOMETHING MORE THAN REGULAR 'WEAR AND TEAR' AS ONE WOULD SAY. NOT SAFE AT ALL!! COULD HAVE KILLED MYSELF, MY FAMILY OR SOMEONE ELSE WITH THIS PROBLEM!! NEEDS ATTENTION ASAP! EXTREMELY UNSAFE!

ON JUNE 3, 2020 MY 2008 FORD EDGE EXPERIENCED SUDDEN TRANSMISSION FAILURE WHILE DRIVING ON A BUSY 5 LANE HIGHWAY WHICH COULD HAVE RESULTED IN INJURY OR DEATH. THANKFULLY, MY WIFE WAS ABLE TO GET IT OFF THE ROADWAY. IT WAS THEN TOWED TO A REPAIR SHOP. THERE WERE NO WARNING SIGNS LEADING UP TO THIS TRANSMISSION FAILURE. THE CAR WAS WELL MAINTAINED PRIMARILY THROUGH A FORD DEALERSHIP AND CERTIFIED MECHANICS. THE VEHICLE HAS ONLY 96000 ORIGINAL MILES. AFTER A SHORT INTERNET SEARCH, IT BECAME PAINFULLY OBVIOUS THAT THIS WAS A WELL DOCUMENTED SHORTCOMING OF THE 2008 FORD EDGE. I CONTACTED THE LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP WHO VERIFIED THAT THEY WERE AWARE OF THIS ISSUE WITH THE 2008 EDGE, "BUT FORD HAS NOT RECALLED IT YET". I THEN CONTACTED FORD MOTOR COMPANY ON JUNE 5TH WHO ALSO ADMITTED THAT THEY WERE AWARE OF SUDDEN TRANSMISSION FAILURE IN THE 2008 EDGE BUT HAVE NOT RECALLED THEM AS OF THIS TIME. THIS IS A SERIOUS, POTENTIALLY LIFE THREATENING MANUFACTURE DEFECT THAT IS BEING IGNORED BY THE FORD MOTOR COMPANY. IT IS ALSO COSTLY TO THE CONSUMER. ESTIMATED COST TO REPAIR THIS THROUGH FORD WITH A REBUILT TRANSMISSION IS OVER $5000. PRIOR TO THIS EPISODE, WE WERE PLEASED WITH THIS VEHICLE. HOWEVER, WE NOW QUESTION THE MORAL DECISION MAKING BY FORD MOTOR COMPANY IN CHOOSING TO IGNORE THIS POTENTIAL LIFE THREATENING MANUFACTURE DEFECT. I SUGGEST THAT THERE BE AN IMMEDIATE RECALL AND REIMBURSEMENT TO CUSTOMERS FOR TRANSMISSION FAILURE IN THE 2008 FORD EDGE.

Mileage: 96,000

THE MECHANIC SAID THE TRANSMISSION AND TRANSFER CASE EXPLODED COSTING ME OVER $2,000 IN REPAIRS. THE AC QUIT COSTING AROUND $700 IN REPAIRS. THE CD/RADIO HAS AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE THAT HAS NOT BEEN FIXED BECAUSE I CAN'T AFFORD IT ESTIMATED AT ANOTHER$700 IN REPAIRS. *TR

RIGHT AFTER I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE, I NOTICED THAT IT HAD A BAD JERK, AND CHUGGING IN THE TRANSMISSION. WITH THE OVERDRIVE "OFF", IT KEEPS THE RPM'S ABOVE 2000, AND PREVENTS IT FROM CHUGGING AND JERKING IN THE TRANSMISSION. WITH THE OVERDRIVE ON IT GEARS DOWN EXTREMELY LOW AFTER GOING DOWN TO 2000 RPM'S, AND LOSSES A LOT OF POWER. WHEN PRESSING DOWN THE GAS PEDAL, IT CHUGS AND JERKS SEVERELY. I HAVE TO LET OFF THE GAS AND THEN REAPPLY THE GAS TO STOP IT FROM JERKING. ALSO, THE POWER STEERING POPS AND MAKES NOISES. I GOT IN THE CAR TODAY AND HAD NO BRAKE POWER AT ALL. THEN HAD NO BRAKES UNLESS I PUSHED THE BRAKE PEDAL DOWN WITH EXTREME FORCE. AND IT WAS STILL EXTREMELY HARD TO STOP MY VEHICLE. UPON SEARCHING ONLINE, I AM FINDING THAT THESE ARE VERY COMMON ISSUES WITH THE 2008 FORD EDGE VEHICLES. THERE SHOULD BE SOME TYPE OF RECALL ON THIS MODEL OF FORD EDGE WHEN THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM, IN MY OPINION. I DID A SEARCH FOR MY VIN NUMBER AND IT SHOWS "NO" RECALLS FOR MY VEHICLE. I UNDERSTAND IT'D NOT A NEW VEHICLE, BUT THE AMOUNT OF ISSUES WITH THIS VEHICLE IS RIDICULOUS. PLEASE HELP!!! *TR

WHEN DRIVING THIS THE TOOL LIGHT ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON LOOSE THE ODOMETER AND IT DOESN'T WANT TO MOVE ONCE YOU STOP. THEN WHEN YOU CAN GET IT TO MOVE THE TRANSMISSION CLUNKS HARD . I ALSO LOST THE MILEAGE ON THE DASH AS WELL. AND THEN WHEN TRYING TO PULL INTO SOMEWHERE THAT HAS A SLIGHT HILL THE CAR WON'T GO FORWARD. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR A COUPLE WEEKS

BATTERY LIGHT STAYED ON DURING A 4.5 HOUR TRIP. AFTER REACHING THE END OF THE TRIP, THE BATTERY CABLES WERE FOUND TO BE CORRODED. NOTICED THETERMINAL PROTECTOR HAS MELTED. USED DISTILLED WATER TO FILL THE ACID LEVEL IN THE BATTERY, SOME WAS SPILLED ON THE POSITIVE BATTERY CABLE CONNECTION(FROM BATTERY TO POWER OF UNDERHOOD FUSE BOX), IT SIZZLED FROM BEING HOT! AFTER FILLING THE BATTERY, THE BATT. LIGHT STAYED OFF FOR ANOTHER 3 HOURS OF TRIP, AND LIT UP AGAIN. HAD THE BATTERY TESTED, BATTERY WAS FOUND TO BE DEFECTIVE. R&R THE BATTERY, BATTERY LIGHT IS ON AGAIN. NO DRIVEABILITY ISSUES, JUST CONCERNED ABOUT, WHAT IS CAUSING RESISTANCE IN ELECTRICAL CHARGING SYSTEM, AND POSSIBLE "FIRE"!

WHEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE IT LOSES THE ABILITY TO ACCELERATE AND ONLY ALLOWS ME TO TRY TO PULL OFF THE ROAD TO A SAFE PLACE WITH THE MOMENTUM OF THE VEHICLE BEFORE IT LOST POWER. IF I AM NOT AT A PLACE WHERE I CAN IMMEDIATELY PULL OFF SAFELY I AM STRANDED IN TRAFFIC. WHEN THIS OCCURS I AM ABLE TO TURN OFF MY VEHICLE FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME AND WHEN I RESTART IT, THE VEHICLE RESUMES NORMAL OPERATION UNTIL THIS HAPPENS AGAIN. IT HAS HAPPENED IN VARIOUS WEATHER CONDITIONS AND AT VARIOUS SPEEDS. WHEN THE ACCELERATION IS LOST THE POWERTRAIN FAULT LIGHT COMES ON.

2008 FORD EDGE SEL....WITH 6F50 TRANSMISSION....165000 MILES.... VEHICLE SHIFTS EXTERNALLY HARD FROM 3RD TO 4TH GEAR WITH A HARD JERK AND LOAD KLUNK, SO MUCH SO THAT IT HAS STARTED CAUSING ME NECK PROBLEMS FROM TENSING UP IN ANTICIPATION OF THE JERK. ALSO 2 TWICE UP GOING FROM PARK TO DRIVE, HAD AN EXTREMLY LOAD NOISE IN TRANSMISSION THAT SHOOK THE ENTIRE VEHICLE AND AS I ATTEMPTED TO ACCELERATE THE RPM ROSE BUT THE CAR BARELY EASED FORWARD AND THE TRANSMISSION SOUNDED AS THOUGH IT WERE IN A BIND. I THEN PUT IT IN PARK, TURNED THE IGNITION OFF, PULLED OUT THE KEY, OPEN AND SHUT THE DOOR AS TO PRETEND I WAS EXITING, THEN PUT KEY BACK INTO IGNITION, STARTED THE CAR, PUT IT IN GEAR (NO PROBLEM) AND ACCELERATED AS NORMAL (NO PROBLEM), EXCEPT WHEN IT SHIFTED FROM 3RD TO 4TH WHICH IS AROUND 25MPH. I HAVE NOT AND DO NOT HAVE ANY LIGHTS ON IN THE INSTRUMENT DISPLAY PANEL NOR DO I HAVE ANY ERROR CODES SHOWING. MACANIC SAYS IT WOULD BE AN EXPENSIVE SHOT IN THE DARK TO START RANDOMLY CHANGING OUT SENSORS AND CHANGING OUT TRANSMISSION WOULD NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM AS IT IS NOT AN ISSUE WITH THE MECHANICS OF THE TRANSMISSION BUT AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE. I'VE ALSO TRIED A HARD REBOOT TO THE CARS ELECTRICAL SYSTEM TO POSSIBLY CLEAR ANY STORED ELECTRICAL ISSUES, PROBLEM STILL EXISTS!!! DEFINITELY A RECALL NEEDED, DUE TO SAFETY ISSUES WHILE DRIVING AND PHYSICAL CONDITIONS THAT COULD ARISE FROM THE TENSING UP IN EXPECTATION OF THE HARD JERK......

Mileage: 100,000

THE INFORMATION PANEL LIT UP WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, THE WRENCH, THE AIRBAG LIGHT, THE TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT AND DISPLAYED A MESSAGE: ODO DATA ERROR. THE ODOMETER/SPEEDOMETER FELL TO ZERO. I STOPPED AT A LIGHT AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE NORMALLY, THEN A BIG CLUNKING SOUND AND FINALLY MOVED FORWARD. AFTER A NIGHT IN THE GARAGE, THE VEHICLE DROVE NORMALLY THE NEXT DAY AND ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS WERE OFF. THEN ONE DAY IT HAPPENED AGAIN. TOOK IT TO A FORD DEALERSHIP. THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM AND THEREFORE COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING TO FIX. SINCE THAT TIME, IT HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES AND EACH TIME I PULL OFF THE ROAD, TURN THE ENGINE OFF, WAIT A LITTLE BIT, START THE ENGINE AGAIN AND PULL AWAY. THERE IS ALWAYS THE CLUNKING AND JERKING INTO GEAR. AFTER REVIEWING A FEW FORD ONLINE FORMS, I SEE THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM IN THE 2008 EDGE AND MAY BE ATTRIBUTED TO TWO SENSORS, THE SPEED OUTPUT AND TURBINE SENSORS. FOR SAFETY REASONS, I WILL ONLY DRIVE ON SURFACE STREETS BECAUSE I NEVER KNOW WHEN IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN. SEEMS TO ME, FORD IS LIKELY AWARE OF THIS AND WOULD BE A SHAME IF SOMEONE GOT HURT. THE DATE BELOW IS THE MOST RECENT OCCURRENCE ALTHOUGH IT HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES. *TR

DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND THE WRENCH LIGHT COMES ON, SPEEDOMETER STOPS WORKING AND THE VEHICLE LOSES POWER. I CAN ALSO SMELL A BURNING SMELL. ONCE I HAVE COME TO A STOP, THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTS VERY HARD LIKE SOMEONE HAS HIT THE VEHICLE. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES, INCLUDING A COUPLE OF TIMES WHEN I PULLED INTO TRAFFIC AND THE VEHICLE LOST POWER, COMING VERY CLOSE TO CAUSING AN ACCIDENT WITH ONCOMING TRAFFIC. VERY DANGEROUS AND I AM VERY APPREHENSIVE ABOUT DRIVING THE CAR DUE TO MY FAMILY'S SAFETY.

"TAKATA RECALL" I WAS DRIVING MY CHILD TO SCHOOL IN HIGHWAY TRAFFIC, SPEEDS OF 55 MPH. THE CAR MILEAGE INDICATORS WENT BLANK, A WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON AND ALL POWER TO CAR WAS LOST DURING TURNING A CURVE ON HIGHWAY.VEHICLE STARTED MAKING VERY LOUD POPPING NOISE AND JERKING THE CAR. TURNED CAR OFF AFTER COMING TO A STOP, RESTARTED CAR, NO WARNING LIGHTS, EVERYTHING WAS NORMAL EXCEPT, WHEN STARTING CAR, IT MADE VERY LOUD NOISE AS IT WAS STARTED, THEN AS I PLACED IN DRIVE OR REVERSE IT MOVED THE VEHICLE JERKING AN LOUD POPPING NOISE. THE ENTIRE MOTOR MOVED SIDEWAYS WHEN PLACED IN GEAR AN HOOD UP. ALSO NOW IT NO LONGER WORKS IN LOW GEAR. ONCE PLACED ON MACHINE IT GAVE CODE PO720-722

THE WRENCH LIGHT WILL COME ON WHEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE, AND POWER IS LOST. MY CAR WILL SLOW DOWN TO AROUND 10-20 MPH NO MATTER WHERE I AM OR HOW FAST I AM GOING. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BY FORD. I HAVE BEEN ON I-10 WITH MY HUSBAND AND TODDLER AND THE VEHICLE GOES INTO THIS "LIMP MODE" AT 80 MPH! I AM SO TERRIFIED TO DRIVE A VEHICLE THAT I HAVE TO PAY EVERY MONTH FOR. MECHANICS THAT HAVE LOOKED AT THE CAR HAVE NO DEFINITIVE ANSWER TO PROBLEM, THEY SUGGESTED THAT THE THROTTLE BODY BE CLEANED. WE DID THAT AND IT WAS NO HELP. THE VEHICLE LEFT ME AND MY SON STRANDED THIS MORNING ON THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY BECAUSE I COULD NOT GET IT OUT OF THE "SAFETY LIMP MODE". USUALLY, I CAN PULL OVER, PARK, AND SHUT THE CAR OFF FOR A FEW MINUTES, THEN TURN IT ON AND IT WOULD WORK AGAIN. THIS MORNING, IT WOULD NOT RESET ITSELF. I WOULD APPRECIATE ANY HELP OR ADVICE ON THIS MATTER.

HE SAID HE CLEARED UP THE COMPUTER AND IT WAS FINE. THEN I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND IT HAPPENED AGAIN. NO ACCELERATION. WHY FORD HASN'T MADE THIS INTO A SAFETY RECALL.

TRANSMISSION SLIPPING AND DOWNSHIFTING HARD - AROUND 80,000K I STARTED TO NOTICE THAT THE TRANSMISSION WOULD BANG WHEN I PUT IT IN REVERSE. AFTER THAT, OTHER ISSUES STARTED HAPPENING - WHILE PRESSING THE GAS PEDAL, VEHICLE WOULD NOT SWITCH TO A HIGHER GEAR. I'D HAVE TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP (IN TRAFFIC!), PUT IT IN PARK, THEN TRY TO DRIVE AGAIN. PERIODS WHEN THE VEHICLE WOULD GET TO SPEED THEN SLIP. TRANSMISSION WOULD BANG LIKE I WAS BEING REAR-ENDED. CHANGED THE VALVE BODY, TSS, AND OSS SENSORS. THAT WORKED FOR A WHILE BUT NOW IT'S ACTING UP AGAIN. DOWNSHIFTS SO HARD AND BANGS WHILE I'M DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS. I'M AFRAID IT'S GOING TO GO COMPLETELY WHILE I'M DRIVING. THERE WAS NO PRIOR DAMAGE TO VEHICLE TO CAUSE THIS MALFUNCTION.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, THE ODOMETER SUDDENLY DROPS TO ZERO WHILE STILL MOVING AT THE POSTED SPEED LIMIT. THE WRENCH SYMBOL WARNING LIGHT IN THE DASH COMES ON, AS WELL AS THE AIRBAG LIGHT. THE MILEAGE IS THEN CLEARED, AND THE DASH READS "ODO ERROR". PULLED OVER, TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE AND REMOVED THE KEY FROM THE IGNITION. GO TO TURN THE VEHICLE BACK ON, CAR STARTS NORMALLY, ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS ARE CLEARED. PUT THE VEHICLE INTO REVERSE, AND HEAR AND FEEL A LOUD "CLUNK" AS THE VEHICLE SHIFTS, AND AM ABLE TO BACK UP NORMALLY. WHEN SHIFTING BACK INTO DRIVE, THE RPMS JUMP UP, THE CAR SHIFTS AND MAKES THE LOUD "CLUNK", AND WHEN PUSHING THE ACCELERATOR, THE VEHICLE BARELY MOVES. IT WILL OCCASIONALLY COME BACK AND THE VEHICLE WILL RETURN TO IT'S NORMAL RUNNING STATE, BUT THEN IT WILL EVENTUALLY RETURNED TO THE DEFECTIVE STATE. NO ODOMETER WHILE DRIVING, NO POWER IF YOU STOP LEAVING YOU STRANDED.

BOUGHT CAR USED JULY 2017 FROM A DEALER. HAS PROBLEMS STARTING A FEW WEEKS AFTER PURCHASE OF NOT WANTING TO MOVE. IF IN HEAVY TRAFFIC DOING 5-10 MPH ON EXPRESSWAY, WHEN TRAFFIC FINALLY BREAKS CAR WILL NOT MOVE, RPM'S GO UP BUT TRANSMISSION IS STILL STUCK. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT REALLY NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AS I AM SEEING A LOT OF COMPLAINTS FOR THE SAME THING. TOOK MY CAR INTO THE DEALER DUE TO EXTENDED WARRANTY. THEY WERE ABLE TO REPLICATE WHAT I TOLD THEM. THIS IS AN INTERNAL PART FAILURE BUT I AM STILL WAITING TO HEAR IF MY EXTENDED WARRANTY WILL BE PAYING FOR THIS. UNACCEPTABLE THAT SO MANY HAVE THIS SERIOUS ISSUE WHICH COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT IF CAR DOES NOT MOVE ON A BUSY HIGHWAY OR AT A STOP LIGHT. THIS HAS HAPPENED IN HEAVY STOP/GO TRAFFIC, FROM A STOP LIGHT WHEN LIGHT CHANGES TO GREEN. UNLESS YOU CAN FIND A WAY TO PULL OFF AND TURN THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON IT WILL NOT MOVE.

WHILE YOU START TO DRIVE FROM A STOP LIGHT OR STOP SIGN, THE CAR WILL NOT SHIFT OUT OF LOW AND THE ENGINE WILL REV UP AND CAR WILL BE AT A CRAWL WHILE TRYING TO CROSS THE INTERSECTION SAFELY. WHILE BACKING UP, THE TRANSMISSION SEEMS TO SLAM IT INTO REVERSE WHERE YOU HEAR A LOUD BANG AND THE CAR SUDDENLY JERKS AS IF YOU HAVE HIT SOMETHING. WHILE ACCELERATING TO GET ONTO THE FREEWAY, THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTS INTO LOW GEAR, STAYS IN LOW AND CAN'T GET UP THE SPEED TO GET ON THE FREEWAY SAFELY. THE PROBLEM OCCURRED AT FIRST SPORADICALLY, THEN WHEN I WOULD GET HOME, TURN OFF THE CAR AND THEN WAIT FOR A FEW MINUTES, IT WAS AS IF THE COMPUTER HAD RESET AND IT WORKED FIND. AS TIME WENT ON, IT OCCURRED MORE FREQUENTLY AND TURNING OFF THE VEHICLE WAS NOT AN OPTION. I HAVE RECENTLY REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION AND NO MORE PROBLEMS HAVE OCCURRED.

DRIVING AND OUT OF NO WHERE, RECEIVE AN ERROR MESSAGE THAT SAYS "ODO DATA ERROR", THE CAR HOLDS THE CURRENT SPEED BUT IT'S VERY APPARENT THAT SOMETHING IS OFF AS THE CAR IS NOW MAKING A HUMMING/AIR PRESSURE SOUND (SPEEDOMETER & TACHOMETER STOPS WORKING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS) WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE WRENCH, AIRBAG, ABS, STABILITY CONTROL INDICATOR AND ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATE. WITHIN 5 MINUTES NEW ERROR APPEARS (TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR FAULT). ONCE YOU HAVE PRESSED THE BRAKES AND COME TO A COMPLETE STOP THE CAR IS EXTREMELY HESITANT TO ACCELERATE EVEN WITH THE GAS PEDAL PUSHED COMPLETELY TO THE FLOOR IT DOESN'T GAIN POWER UNTIL IT HAS ROLLED ABOUT 15-20 FEET AND AT THAT POINT THERE IS A EXTREMELY LOUD BANG WHICH MAKES YOU THINK THE ENTIRE UNDERBELLY OF THE CAR HAS FALLEN OUT. AT THAT POINT IT REGAINS SPEED AGAIN, BUT IF YOU STOP IT DOES THE SAME THING ALL OVER. SWITCHING GEARS RESULT IN A LOUD BANG AND JERKING ACTION OF THE CAR WITH LITTLE TO NO ACCELERATION POWER. TEMPORARY REMEDY IS TO PULL OVER TURN CAR OFF WAIT A MINUTE OR TWO THEN RESTART THE CAR. AT THAT POINT WHEN SWITCHING GEARS THE BANG AND JERK HAPPEN AGAIN WITH THE CAR SLOW TO ACCELERATE FOR A FEW SECONDS THEN IT TAKES OFF LIKE A RACE HORSE. SOMETIMES THIS REMEDIES IT WHILE OTHER TIMES THE SAME PROCESS IS REPEATED MULTIPLE TIMES WITHIN ONE TRIP. THIS HAS OCCURRED ON CITY STREETS AND MAJOR EXPRESSWAYS AT SPEEDS OF 35 MPH TO 60 MPH. FIRST STARTED EXPERIENCING THE ISSUE AT ABOUT 170K MILES AND HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR OVER A YEAR WITH NO SOLUTIONS FROM MECHANICS. IF A MECHANIC WITH EQUIPMENT/COMPUTERS CAN'T REMEDY A REPAIR AND SEEING HOW THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME ISSUE FORD SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL TO REPAIR ANY COMPONENTS THAT COULD TRIGGER THE ISSUE. THIS IS PURE NEGLIGENCE SEEING THAT THERE ARE SO MANY COMPLAINTS. MY OPINION IS IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE TRANSMISSION AND COMPUTER SYSTEM.

SEVERAL TIMES NOW, MY CAR WILL NOT ACCELERATE. THIS HAS HAPPENED WHILE GOING 40, 60, 70MPH ON THE HWY. I HAVE HAD TO INSTANTLY PUT HAZARDS ON AND TRY TO PULL OVER WHICH ISN'T ALWAYS EASY DURING RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC. WHEN THIS HAPPENS, I PULL OFF, AND THEN MY CAR LURCHES FORWARD AND SHIFTS GEARS AND THEN CAN ACCELERATE. THIS HAS ALSO HAPPENED WHEN I HAVE BEEN AT A COMPLETE STOP, AND TRIED TO ACCELERATE. WHEN YOU CANNOT MOVE FORWARD, OR CRAWL AT SPEEDS UNDER 5MPH, BUT YOUR RPMS ARE REACHING 7, THERE IS SOMETHING SERIOUSLY WRONG. I HAVE TAKEN IT IN A FEW TIMES ONLY TO BE TOLD THEY CANNOT FIND OR RECREATE THE ISSUES, SO THEY SEND ME ON MY WAY. IT SOUNDS AS IF MANY OTHERS ARE HAVING THE EXACT SAME ISSUES. I AM VERY NERVOUS THAT MY LUCK IN PULLING OFF OUT OF HARMS WAY WILL RUN OUT. I HAVE CALLED MY DEALERSHIP TO ONCE AGAIN HAVE IT LOOKED AT BUT THEY CANNOT GET ME IN FOR 10 DAYS.... SHOULD I EVEN DRIVE THIS CAR IF IT IS NOT RELIABLE?? I TRULY AM FRIGHTENED TO DRIVE NOW, AND THIS IS MY ONLY CAR AND AM A SINGLE MOTHER. NOT SURE WHAT I AM SUPPOSED TO DO. I REALLY HOPE THAT FORD RECALLS THIS, AS I HAVE READ THAT THERE ARE SEVERAL LAWSUITS PENDING THIS EXACT ISSUE.

CHECK ENGLINE LIGHT & WRENCH COMES ON AND THE 2008 EDGE SUDDENLY LOST POWER, THEN ENTERED "LIMP MODE". MY HUSBAND TOOK IT IN 3 DIFFERENT TIMES TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT, AND EACH TIME WAS TOLD THEY COULDN'T FIND THE PROBLEM. THE 4TH TIME I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM ON A 45MPH, 3 LANE ROAD. THE POWER JUST WENT OUT, ACCELARATOR NO LONGER WORKED, BUT THEN RETURNED BUT ONLY ABOUT 5MPH. LUCKY I WASN'T KILLED! I TOOK IT BACK TO SERVICE DEPT. AND TOLD THEM THEY NEEDED TO CHECK THE THROTTLE BODY (ETB). THEY LAUGHED AT ME, BUT THEN CALLED 3 DAYS LATER TO TELL ME THAT IT IS THE ETB AND OVER $750. I CONTACTED FORD AS THEY HAD ISSUED THE SO-CALLED "CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM" EXTENDING THE ETB WARRANTY COVERAGE FOR UP TO 10 YEARS OF SERVICE OR 150,000 MILES. FORD SAYS ALL VEHICLES ARE ELIGIBLE FOR THE PROGRAM, REGARDLESS OF MILEAGE, BUT NOT 2008. THOUGH THEY ACKNOWLEDGED THEY KNOW THE PROBLEM GOES BACK TO 2005 MODELS, THEY FEEL MY CAR IS TOO OLD & HAS TOO MANY MILES AT 104K. THIS IS A LIFE THREATENING PROBLEM AND FORD REFUSES TO DO ANYTHING. WHEN SOMEONE DIES BECAUSE OF THIS KNOWN ISSUE, I HOPE THAT FORD EXECUTIVES ARE HELD AS COMPLICITORS IN PREMEDITATED MURDER. AFTER ALL THE PROBLEMS WITH THE BRAKES, NO PARTS AVAILABLE, AND NOW THIS, I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER FORD AND WILL GET THIS PIECE OF JUNK OUT OF MY LIFE ASAP.

THE CAR REFUSE TO MOVE FORWARD, PLACED IN REVERSE IT MOVES BACKWARD ,THE FORD DEALER IS UNABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM ,CODES DON'T SHOW UP TO HELP IDENTIFY THE PROBLEM. THE DANGER IS IT HAPPENS WHILE YOU ARE DRIVING. ITS BEEN DIAGNOSED AS A TRANSMISSION PROBLEM (VERY EXPENSIVE) BUT THAT'S NOT WHAT IT IS. YOU REPROGRAM IT TEMPORARY, BY TAKING THE POSITIVE BATTERY CABLE LOOSE FOR A FEW SECONDS, THE CAR DRIVES PERFECT UNTIL IT HAPPENS AGAIN, ITS HAPPEN THREE TIMES WITH THIS CAR, I HAVE CALLED THE FORD COOPERATE OFFICE TO REPORT THIS PROBLEM.

WHILE REGULAR DRIVING OR WHEN IN THE PROCESS OF ENGAGING A STOP SIGN THE CAR ENGINE DISENGAGES FROM THE TRANSMISSION AND LOOSE ANY CONNECTION BETWEEN THE ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION. IF ONE STEPS ON THE GAS THE TRANSMISSION MAKES A HOLLOWING NOISE AND FAILS TO MOVE, THE ENGINE RPM INCREASE WITH PRESSING THE GAS PADEL BUT THE TRANSMISSION DOES NOT ENGAGE AS IF ONE IS LOW ON TRANSMISSION FLUID. IN ORDER FOR THE CAR TO ENGAGE INTO MOTION ONE HAS TO SHUT DOWN THE ENGINE COMPLETE AND THEN RESTART THE CAR WHERE AFTER IT JUST RUN S FINE AS IF NOTHING HAPPENED. WE HAVE ENCOUNTERED THIS SITUATION THREE TIMES THIS YEAR. THE CAR HAS AROUND 58600 MILES ON IT. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION TO BE IN SPECIALLY OF ONE IS ENCOURAGING AND INTERSECTION ETC AND IS VERY SCARY TO DRIVE AT TIMES...THANK YOU. WE CALLED THE FORD DEALER AND THEY TOLD US THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD ANY THING LIKE THIS...THIS ALL HAPPENED ON CITY STREETS AND WHILE THE CAR WAS MOVING OR WHEN COMING TO A STOP SIGN.

VERY SCARY TO DRIVE AND AFTER IT HAPPENS IT FEELS LIKE IT HAS NO POWER ACCELERATING. MECHANIC CANT DIAGNOSE DUE TO NOT HAVING ANY CODE STORED. SEEMS LIKE MANY EDGE OWNERS EXPERIENCE THIS SAME ISSUE AND CANT SEEM TO FIX THIS. HOPEFULLY FORD HAS THIS RECALL ADDRESSED VERY SOON. THE ONLY REASON WHY I BOUGHT THIS VEHICHLE WAS SAFETY AND IT SEEMS EVERY RECALL ISNT LIVING UP TO THAT STANDARD.

MADE A TURN OFF INTERSTATE INTO A BUSY ROAD, MY VEHICLE JERKED AND LOST ITS ABILITY TO ACCELERATE. LEAVING ME IN A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION WITH CARS FLYING AROUND ME TO AVOID HITTING ME. I MANAGED TO MAKE IT INTO A PARKING LOT. I HAD A FRIEND CHECK THE VEHICLE AND WITH THE HOOD UP HE HAD ME PUT IN REVERSE AND IT LOOKED LIKE THE MOTOR WAS GOING TO JUMP OUT OF THE VEHICLE, SAME HAPPENED IN DRIVE. HE PUT HIS COMPUTER ON AND A CODE FOR THE DRIVE SPEED SENSOR WAS PRESENT. THE CODE WAS CLEARED AND THEN NOTICED THE SPEED AND RPM GAUGES WERE INACCURATE. THIS HAPPENS ON OCCASION. UPON RESEARCH I SEE THIS SENSOR HAS A RECALL ON IT BUT NOT FOR MY YEAR 08 EDGE. PLEASE RECALL ASAP. THIS CAN CAUSE SOME SERIOUSLY BAD ACCIDENT WHEN YOUR VEHICLE LOOSES ITS ABILITY TO ACCELERATE WHEN IN TRAFFIC. I FEAR THIS WILL HAPPEN AND MY LIFE IS IN THE LINE. FORD IS AWARE THERE IS A APPARENT PROBLEM NOTED BY OTHER YEAR MAKE MODEL RECALLS. NOTE: THIS IS THE ORIGINAL COMPLAINT.....................TODAY THE SAME HAS HAPPENED AGAIN, I WAS GREETED BY HORNS BLOWING AND AGGRESSIVE DRIVERS BUT WAS UNABLE TO DO ANYTHING BUT COAST TO THE NEXT INTERSECTION TO TURN OFF. NHTSA PLEASW DO SOMETHING IF POSSIBLE. THIS OUTPUT DRIVE SPEED SENSOR IS GOING TO GET SOMEONE KILLED SOON. THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS THROUGHOUT THIS FEED UNDER SCATTERED CATEGORIES MAINLY BECAUSE MOST DO NOT KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS AND DEALERS CANT FIGURE OUT IF THE VEHICLE DOESN'T THROW UP A CODE. I HAD MINE CHECKED WHEN THE WARNING LIGHT WAS ON SO I WOULD KNOW THE ISSUE. UNFORTUNATELY THE DEALER COULDN'T HELP BECAUSE WE CLEARED THE CODE. I CHECKED INTO GEETING THIS FIXED BUT ACCORDING TO THE DEALER THE PART IS UNAVAILABLE, AND THE LABOR WOULD BE ABSURD IF THEY HAD TO REPLACE. PLEASE HELP!

TWO WEEKS AGO I WAS DRIVING ON NJ ROUT 9 WHEN THE TRANSMISSION SOUNDED LIKE IT WAS IN NEUTRAL BUT IT WASN'T. ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS WERE ON AND WAS ABLE TO DRIVE TO A SAFE AREA AND STOP. I DID NOT TURN THE CAR OFF AND EXITED THE CAR AND TRIED TO OPEN THE REAR DOORS AND HATCH BUT COULDN'T. NEXT I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND WAITED A FEW MINUTES BEFORE STARTING IT. WHEN IT STARTED, ALL WAS FINE. THE NEXT MORNING I DROVE IT TO A TRANSMISSION SHOP WITHOUT INCIDENT. THERE WAS ONLY 62,000 MILES ON IT AT THE TIME BUT THE WARRANTY EXPIRED BECAUSE IT WAS MORE THAN SEVEN YEARS. THE OSS WAS REPLACED AT A COST OF 750.00. THIS IS NOT THE FIRS MAJOR ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE. LESS THAN ONE YEAR AGO TWO COILS FAULTED CAUSING A BACK FEED OF TOO MUCH VOLTAGE TO THE COMPUTER CAUSING IT TO FRY. A COST OF MORE THAN 3,000.00 TO REPAIR.

WHEN YOU STEP ON THE GAS THERE IS NO POWER. WHEN THIS HAPPENED THE AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON AND THE SPEEDOMETER. WOULDN'T WORK THE TACK REVED UP THE LOW TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE LITTLE WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON. THE CAR WOULD NOT GO. NOW IT'S GOING TO COST AROUND $3000.00 TO FIX IS WHAT I WAS TOLD AND THE CAR ONLY HAS 90,000 MILES ON IT. I SEE A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. FORD SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL FOR THESE TRANSMISSIONS. BEFORE SOMEONE GETS INJURED. I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WHEN I LOST POWER GOOD THING I COULD PULL OVER SAFELY.

ONCE I'M OUT ON THE STREET, THAT'S WHERE IT GETS STUCK IN THE FIRST GEAR.

VEHICLE OFTEN SHIFTS HARD. IN THE (7) YEARS THAT WE'VE HAD THE 2008 FORD EDGE, THERE HAVE BEEN (6) OCCASIONS THAT WE HAVE BEEN TRAVELLING 60 TO 70 MPH AND THE SPEEDOMETER WILL FALL TO ZERO, AND THE ODOMETER WILL READ "ODOMETER DATA ERROR". WE CAN STILL TRAVEL AT 60MPH OR SO BUT THE ENGINE RPMS CLIMB TO 3000 AND YOU LOSE POWER. YOU CAN'T CLIMB A HILL, EXCEPT IN REVERSE, AND UNLESS YOU'RE ON LEVEL GROUND YOU CAN'T MOVE AT ALL. THE "WRENCH" LIGHTS UP ON THE DASH AND THE ONLY WAY TO GET OUT OF THIS SITUATION IS TO STOP THE VEHICLE, TURN OFF THE IGNITION AND WAIT FOR 5 TO 10 MINUTES FOR EVERYTHING TO RESET. I'M VERY CONCERNED FOR MY FAMILY'S SAFETY ON THE HIGHWAYS AS THEY TRAVEL WITHOUT ME QUITE OFTEN.

RESTART IT ALL WARNING LIGHTS ARE GONE BUT STILL WILL NOT ACCELERATE. SHIFT IN AND OUT OF REVERSE AND DRIVE WITH VERY LOUD KNOCKING AND JERKING. MOVE CAR BACK AND FORTH. RESTART AND REPEAT MULTIPLE TIMES BEFORE IT RESETS ITSELF. IT NEVER HAPPENS BY SOMEWHERE THAT CAN SCAN IT TO GET A CODE. AS THE WRENCH LIGHT GOES OFF AND STAYS OFF AFTER YOU RESTART THE CAR NO ONE CAN TELL ME WHAT'S WRONG. IT IS EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING. I AM QUICKLY LOSING FAITH IN FORD AND THEIR REGARDS FOR CUSTOMERS SAFETY. GOOD THING I DON'T LIVE WHERE THERE ARE MOUNTAINS BECAUSE IF I DID I AM SURE I WOULD HAVE BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT BY NOW.

IF I COME TO A STOP TAKING OFF THE VEHICLE IS STUCK IN HIGH GEAR AND WILL BARELY PICK UP ANY SPEED UNTIL IT MAKES A HARD LOUD SHIFT. YOU CAN PULL OVER AND RESET IT BUT WHEN YOU TAKE OFF IT IS THE SAME THING. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS YOU DON'T KNOW WHEN IT WILL HAPPEN AND I HAVE BEEN IN THE MIDDLE LANE ON A HIGHWAY BEFORE WHEN IT KICKED OUT. THIS HAS BEEN LINKED BACK TO BAD TSS AND OSS SENSORS IN THE TRANSMISSION THEY NEED TO BE RECALLED BEFORE IT KILLS SOMEONE.

AFTER YOU TURN OFF YOUR CAR AND TURN IT ON CODE RESETS HOWEVER CAR IS STUCK IN GEAR. AFTER A FEW HARD SHIFTS FINALLY GOES BACK INTO GEAR. FORD DEALERSHIP SAYS COMMON PROBLEM HOWEVER CAN'T FIGURE OUT IF ITS A HARNESS OR THE SENSORS. REPLACING SENSORS REQUIRES DROPPING THE TRANSMISSION.

THEN MY ODOMETER GOES TO ZERO. IF I SLOW DOWN TO A STOP SIGN OR SOMETHING, I PUSH THE GAS AND THE RPM'S ON MY CAR GO WAY UP BUT MY CAR HARDLY MOVES. ONCE I GET GOING TO A HIGHER SPEED, THE RPM'S GO DOWN...IT IS ALMOST LIKE IT IS STUCK IN A HIGH GEAR. THEN WHEN I PUT MY CAR INTO DRIVE AFTER IT WAS IN PARK, MY CAR JOLTS AND MAKES A HUGE CLANKING NOISE. IF I SHUT MY CAR OFF AND TURN IT BACK ON, IT MAKES A LOUD CLANKING NOISE BUT ALL MY WARNING LIGHTS TURN OFF EXCEPT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. THEN WHEN I PUSH THE GAS AGAIN, IT IS STILL BARELY MOVING AND IN HIGH RPM'S BUT IT WILL RANDOMLY KICK INTO WHATEVER GEAR IT NEEDS TO BE IN AND MAKE ANOTHER LOUD CLANKING SOUND AND RUN FINE. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND I AM NOT SURE WHY IT HAS NOT BEEN RECALLED YET. THIS HAPPENED TO ME FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THE MIDDLE OF A FOUR WAY STOP AND I BLOCKED THE INTERSECTION AND ALMOST GOT HIT BY ANOTHER CAR.

I DID SOME RESEARCH THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE TRANSMISSIONS IN THE FORD EDGE'S. I STARTED HAVING ISSUES SEVERAL WEEKS AGO BACK IN OCTOBER 2016. WHY SHOULD ALL THE OWNERS OF THESE DEFECTIVE TRANSMISSION HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS TO BE FIXED. THAT'S NOT RIGHT! WE GAVE FORD OUR HARD EARNED MONEY JUST TO GET A DEFECTIVE VEHICLE. TALKED TO FORD TODAY AND THEY DON'T CARE. NOT GOING TO DO ANYTHING THEY STATED. TODAY I WAS AT A 4 WAY STOP IN A SCHOOL ZONE AND WHEN I WANTED TO TAKE OFF IT ACTED LIKE IT WAS IN NEUTRAL.

FIRST I WAS DRIVING WHEN MY BREAKS STARTED TO FEEL LIKE THEY WERE LOCKING UP. COME TO FIND OUT IT WAS THE POWER BREAK BOOSTER WHICH COST ME $504.00. THEN 2 WEEKS LATER MY CAR STARTS TO DO A PUTTING FEELING AND COME TO FIND OUT 2 OF THE COILS BURNT UP THE POWER CONTROL MODULE COSTING ME $1058.00. A FEW MONTHS BEFORE THIS IT WAS IN THE FORD DEALERSHIP BECAUSE OF A LEAK ON THE FUEL PUMP. COSTING ME $216. I AM FURIOUS I HAVE HAD TO SPEND THIS IN THE LAST MONTH. I JUST SEEN ON THE NEWS THAT FORD HAS A RECALL ON THE POWER CONTROL MODULE BUT IT WAS NOT MY YEAR. I AM SIMPLY ASKING IF SOMEONE WOULD PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS SO MAYBE I CAN GET SOME OF THIS MONEY BACK TO PAY OFF THE DEBT IT CAUSED ME.

MY RADIO HAS A SHORT IN THE HARDWARE. FACTORY INSTALLED RADIO AND IT WILL TURN OFF AND TURN BACK ON REPETITIVELY SOME DAYS, NOT ALLOWING ME TO UTILIZE SYNC. TRANSMISSION HAS STARTED KICKING INTERMITTENTLY FOR THE PAST MONTH. WHILE DRIVING AND SLOWING DOWN.

DRIVING STRAIGHT ON FREEWAY AT 70 MPH AND THE DASH SUDDENLY DISPLAYS ODO ERROR. WRENCH LIGHT, LOW TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT, AND AIR BAG LIGHT COME ON. SPEEDOMETER SHOWS 0 MPH BUT TACH STILL WORKS. AFTER I STOP THE CAR AND TRY TO TAKE OFF AGAIN IT HAS NO PICKUP. TRANSMISSION SEEMS TO BE STUCK IN 5TH GEAR OR OVERDRIVE. TACH GOES UP TO 2500 RPM BUT VEHICLE BARELY MOVES. WHEN I SHIFT FROM PARK TO DRIVE OR REVERSE THE ENGINE/TRANSMISSION MAKES A HORRIBLE CLUNKING NOISE THAT MAKES ME THINK IT WILL COME OUT OF THE BODY. THE ONLY WAY I CAN GET THE CAR DRIVEABLE AGAIN IS TO DISCONNECT BATTERY FOR A FEW MINUTES THEN RECONNECT. EVERYTHING RESETS AND WORKS BUT OCCURS AGAIN-SOMETIMES A WEEK LATER, SOMETIMES A COUPLE OF MONTHS LATER.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 FORD EDGE. WHILE STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, BUT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE WITHOUT WARNING. THE ENGINE REVVED AND THE RPMS INCREASED. WHEN THE GEAR WAS SHIFTED INTO THE PARK POSITION, THE VEHICLE LUNGED FORWARD. THE FAILURE RECURRED NUMEROUS TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 120,000.

ON APPROXIMATELY 7/6/2016, WHILE IN MOTION, TRAVELING NORTH ON RIVERSIDE DRIVE -I-55 NORTH, ON THE 2-LANE OVERPASS AT I-55 & MCLEMORE, 18 WHEELER WAS TO THE RIGHT AND I WAS BEHIND ANOTHER MOTORIST IN LINE AND TRAVELING ABOUT 70 MPH WITH A LINE OF VEHICLES BEHIND, IT WAS AFTER WORK RUSH HOUR 4:45PM; WHEN AS I AM DRIVING THE VEHICLE SPUTTERS, SEEMED TO IT LOSE POWER, DECELERATES IN THE MIDDLE OF ON GOING TRAFFIC. THE ENGINE LIGHT FLASHED AND THEN STAYED ILLUMINATED, I COULD NOT ACCELERATE IN ORDER GET OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY AND TRAFFIC WAS AT A VERY FAST FLOW. MY SYNC SYSTEM SURGED, A-C STOPPED BLOWING COLD AIR, THE VEHICLE STARTED "MISSING" BUT THE VEHICLE DID NOT SHUT OFF. TOOK THE VEHICLE TO ADVANCE AUTO PARTS STORE AND WAS TOLD THAT I HAD A MISFIRE IN 3 OF THE IGNITION COILS, BOUGHT REPLACEMENT COILS AND HAD ALL 6 OF THEM REPLACED. START THE VEHICLE AND THE ENGINE LIGHT WAS CLEARED BUT CAME RIGHT BACK, THE VEHICLE IS STILL MISS FIRING ON THE EXACT SAME COILS THIS TIME ALONG WITH THE PCM. OUT OF HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS AT THE MOMENT AND IT LOOKS LIKE I WILL BE OUT OF $3000 TO FORD FOR AN ISSUE THAT THEY KNOW IS FAULTY WITHIN THE DESIGN OF THE COMPUTER. WE'VE ALREADY PAID $30,000 FOR THE VEHICLE, WHY WOULD FORD NOT RECALL AND REPAIR THESE ISSUES IF THEY ARE AWARE OF IT????

WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY ROAD THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE WHEN GIVEN GAS. MULTIPLE LIGHTS WENT ON THE DASH BOARD. VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION BECAUSE THE CAR LITERALLY JUST STOPPED ACCELERATING WHILE IN MOTION. MECHANIC DIAGNOSED PROBLEM AS A FAULTY OUTPUT SPEED SENSOR IN THE TRANSMISSION. THIS IS AN ON GOING ISSUE THAT MANY FORD EDGE OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING BUT FORD IS NOT ACKNOWLEDGING THE PROBLEM. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL AS THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS ISSUE. I SHOULD ALSO BE REIMBURSED BY FORD FOR THE REPAIR.

Mileage: 159,000

I HAVE A 2008 FORD EDGE. I HAVE BEEN PUTTING UP WITH MANY ISSUES UNTIL THE LAST ONE I EXPERIENCED LAST YEAR. MY USUAL PROBLEMS HAVE BEEN WHEN ON AN INCLINE & TRYING TO GO FORWARD, THE CAR WILL GO BACKWARDS CAUSING YOU TO HAVE YOUR FOOT ON THE BRAKE AND THE GAS AT THE SAME TIME SO YOU WILL NOT HIT THE CAR BEHIND YOU. ALSO THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTS VERY HARD. WHEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE WILL JERK FOR NO APPARENT REASON. BUT THE LAST PROBLEM THAT CAUSED ME TO PARK THE VEHICLE WAS WHEN IT JUST STOPPED ACCELERATING IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. I WAS FORTUNATE TO BE ABLE TO COAST TO A NEARBY PARKING LOT. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE NOW. I CANNOT AFFORD TO TAKE IT TO A DEALERSHIP TO HAVE REPAIRS RIGHT NOW.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH, THE INSTRUMENT PANEL ILLUMINATED AND THE SPEEDOMETER FLUCTUATED DOWN TO ZERO. THE CONTACT MANEUVERED THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND RESTARTED IT AFTER TEN MINUTES. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AN ABNORMAL SOUND EMITTED FROM THE TRANSMISSION AREA AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED. THE VEHICLE WAS SHIFTED INTO THE DRIVE POSITION AND OPERATED NORMALLY. THE FAILURE RECURRED SEVERAL TIMES IN THE PAST YEAR. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 120,000.

IN AUGUST 2015 MY WIFE WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE AT 45 MPH ON A FOUR LANE ROAD WHEN THE VEHICLE CAME TO A SUDDEN CRAWL APPROX .10 MPH. THIS WAS ON A CITY STREET.SHE COULD BARELY GET OFF THE ROAD WITH LIMITED POWER. SHE CALLED ME TO COME TO THE SCENE AND WE HAD TO HAVE THE VEHICLE TOWED TO OUR MECHANIC. AT THE TIME, THE VEHICLE HAD 61,000 MILES ON IT. THE MECHANIC CALLED AND STATED THE PROBLEM CODE SHOWED IT WAS THE OUTPUT SPEED SENSOR (OSS) AND IT WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED ALONG WITH THE FLUID. UPON PICKING UP THE VEHICLE, IT WAS REPAIRED PROPERLY AND WAS BACK TO NORMAL. IT WAS REPAIRED BY A ASE MASTER MECHANIC. THE DELAY IN REPORTING THIS INCIDENT IS TWO FOLD. SINCE THE AUGUST 2015 INCIDENT, I HAVE SINCE DISCOVERED CHECKING ON-LINE THERE ARE NUMEROUS CASES OF THE 2007 & 2008 FORD EDGE DOING THIS. RECENTLY, I PARKED NEXT TO A LADY LOADING HER GROCERIES IN A 2008 FORD EDGE. WHEN I ASKED HER HOW SHE LIKED HER EDGE, YOU GUESSED IT, THEY WERE ON A FAMILY TRIP WHEN THE OSS WENT OUT ON HERS. SHE STATED HERS WAS FIXED UNDER WARRANTY . MY REPAIR COST $370.00 WHICH WAS A FAIR PRICE. IT IS MY PERSONAL OPINION, FORD KNOWS THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE BUT THE FACTS ARE ENOUGH PEOPLE TO NOT COMPLAIN TO NHTSA AND THIS KEEPS FROM FORD HAVING TO ANNOUNCE A RECALL ON THE 2007 & 2008 FORD EDGE.

MY CHILD AND I WERE DRIVING DOWN A BUSY INTERSTATE, 1100 MILES FROM HOME. THE VEHICLE WAS SET ON CRUISE CONTROL AT 70 MPH. WITHOUT WARNING, THE CAR JERKED. WE HAD ITEMS THAT FELL INTO THE FLOORBOARD. I LOOKED AT MY GAUGES AND NOTICED THE CARS SPEEDOMETER HAD GONE TO ZERO. THE CAR BEGAN TO COAST EVEN THOUGH THE CRUISE CONTROL WAS STILL ON. THERE WAS A LOT OF TRAFFIC ON THE INTERSTATE COMING BEHIND US. AS I PUSHED THE GAS PETAL, THE CAR WOULD NOT GO. I STOPPED THE VEHICLE AND CALLED A FORD DEALER AND THEY HAD IT TOWED. THE NEXT DAY WE WERE TOLD THAT IT WAS A "CATASTROPHIC INTERNAL FAILURE IN THE TRANSMISSION" ALSO, THAT IT BLEW OUT SENSORS ECT.. I HAVE WRITTEN FORD MOTOR COMPANY REGARDING THIS ISSUE AND THEY STATE THAT THERE ARE NO WARRANTIES OR FIELD SERVICE ACTIONS BEING TAKEN AND THEY URGED ME TO CONTACT WITH THE FORD DEALER SERVICING THE VEHICLE WITH ANY DISCOUNT OR ISSUES. THE FORD EDGE HAS LESS THAN 100,000 MILES, AND I KNOW I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE THIS HAS HAPPENED TO. THIS IS A SERIOUS PUBLIC SAFETY HAZARD. IT COULD HAVE CAUSED US TO WRECK OR A TRUCK TO REAR END US AND SHOULD I HAVE CONTACTED THE FORD DEALER THEN? I BELIEVE AND INVESTIGATION SHOULD TAKE PLACE BEFORE SOMEONE DOES GETS HURT OR KILLED. AGAIN, THERE WAS NO WARNING BEFORE THIS HAPPENED. THE CAR IS REQUIRING A COMPLETE TRANSMISSION TO THE SUM OF $5,382.00. I WILL HAVE THE RECEIPT AS SOON AS IT'S REPAIRED. I CANNOT EXPLAIN A CAUSE OTHER THAN AN INTERNAL FAILURE, AS THE FORD SERVICE MAN QUOTED. THE CAR HAS 96,000 MILES. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE. PLEASE DO NOT HESITATE TO CONTACT ME REGARDING ANY QUESTIONS. SINCERELY, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

MY EDGE STARTED SLIPPING WHEN PLACED IN DRIVE SO I WOULD TURN IT OFF AND TURN IT ON UNTIL THE SLIPPING STOPPED AFTER I PLACED IT IN A GEAR. AFTER CHECKING FOR RECALLS I SAW SEVERAL OTHER OWNERS COMPLAIN ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE. THE ODOMETER SCREED DID SIMILAR CHECK AS OTHERS COMING UP WITH DASHES AND CYCLING AND CHECKING THROUGH PROCESSES. THE CAR WAS RECENTLY DRIVEN AND THE SAME SLIPPING HAPPENED BUT THIS TIME IT CAUSED INTERNAL DAMAGE TO THE TRANSMISSION. MOST OF THE COMPLAINTS I'VE READ ARE IN THE SAME MILEAGE RANGE.

Mileage: 120,111

IN RECENT WEEKS, CAR AT TIMES SEEMED TO SLIP SLIGHTLY WHILE SHIFTING OR THERE WAS A HARD, LAGGING SHIFT. WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY, SPEEDOMETER STOPPED WORKING, INFO/TRIP READOUT ON DASH SHOWED DASHES INSTEAD OF NUMBERS. AFTER A FEW MINUTES, MULTIPLE WARNING LIGHTS SHOWED ON DASH, INCLUDING PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT, A WRENCH ICON, THEN THE LOW TIRE PRESSURE WARNING ICON. READOUT THEN CHANGED TO A TIRE PRESSURE FAULT MESSAGE. PULLED OFF THE HIGHWAY AND AFTER MAKING A TURN, CAR SEEMED UNDER-POWERED/ACCELERATION WAS COMPROMISED. STOPPED AT A SERVICE STATION, TURNED OFF THE CAR, THEN RESTARTED. AFTER RESTARTING, WARNING ICONS ON DASH DISAPPEARED. WHEN CAR WAS SHIFTED INTO REVERSE, CAR JERKED VIOLENTLY AND LOUD 'CLUNKING' NOISE OCCURRED. SHIFTING IN AND OUT OF REVERSE, WHILE THE CAR WAS STILL STATIONARY, JERKING BECAME EVEN MORE PRONOUNCED AND CLUNKING NOISE BECAME LOUDER. HAD THE CAR TOWED TO FORD DEALER - AFTER DIAGNOSIS, WAS TOLD 2 SENSORS (THE TSS & OSS) IN THE TRANSMISSION WERE FAULTY AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. ADDITIONALLY, WAS TOLD FAN MODULE WAS ALSO FAULTY, NEEDED REPLACING. APPROXIMATELY $1700 IN REPAIRS AND WAS WITHOUT THE CAR FOR OVER A WEEK. AFTER RESEARCHING ISSUE ONLINE, CAME ACROSS MANY PEOPLE EXPERIENCING THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM IN FORD EDGES, ALMOST ALWAYS AROUND THE SAME MILEAGE (APPROX. 77,800) AND FOR VARIOUS YEARS. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL! TO BE HONEST, THOUGH THE CAR IS OPERATING NORMALLY AT THE MOMENT, I HAVE LITTLE TO NO CONFIDENCE THAT THIS SENSOR REPAIR ACTUALLY FIXES THE PROBLEM LONG TERM AS SOME ANECDOTAL RESEARCH SEEMS TO SHOW THAT OTHERS HAVE EXPERIENCED A RETURN OF THE ISSUE EVEN AFTER THE SENSOR REPLACEMENT. I BELIEVE THIS SITUATION WARRANTS INVESTIGATION BY NHTSA AS FORD WILL DENY/IGNORE THE PROBLEM UNTIL FORCED TO ADDRESS IT. TOO MANY PEOPLE HAVE THIS SAME ISSUE AND NOT ONLY IS IT COSTLY, BUT COULD BE VERY DANGEROUS AS WELL.

Mileage: 78,575

THE CAR JERKS INTO GEAR IN DRIVE AND REVERSE. WHEN THE CAR IS STILL AND PUSHING ON THE GAS TO BEGIN TO DRIVE, THE TACHOMETER REVS PAST 3 AND THE SPEEDOMETER IS BARING MOVING AND THE CAR IS NOT ACCELERATING. IT HARD SHIFTS INTO GEAR (DRIVE AND REVERSE) AND AT TIMES WON'T SHIFT INTO GEAR AT ALL. NO ACCELERATION IN THE CAR AND VERY DIFFICULT TO DRIVE AS SHIFTING INTO GEARS IS HARD AND JERKS THE CAR.

Mileage: 170,000

AFTER DRIVING FOR A WHILE (ROUGHLY A FEW HOURS) THE EDGE DOES THIS HARD JERK FORWARD THAT FEELS LIKE I'M PRACTICALLY BEING REAR ENDED. IT'S LIKE A HARD PAUSE, BEFORE IT JERKS FORWARD. THEN IT GRADUALLY ACCELERATES. ALSO, ON A FEW OCCASIONS, WHILE PULLING OUT OF A PARKING LOT, THE EDGE DID NOT WANT TO ACCELERATE THOUGH I WAS PRESSING ON THE GAS. MIND YOU, I WASN'T GOING FAST BECAUSE I HAD BARELY PULLED OUT OF THE PARKING STALL WHEN THIS OCCURRED. IT BARELY ACCELERATED THEN GRADUALLY CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP WHILE IN DRIVE. THIS HAS ALSO HAPPENED WHILE I WAS EXITING THE FREEWAY ONCE. I INITIALLY THOUGHT MY BATTERY WAS THE PROBLEM, BUT I HAD IT REPLACED THE FOLLOWING MORNING. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND I WAS TOLD NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH IT. THIS WAS THE SAME RESPONSE I GOT WHEN I'VE TAKEN IT TO FORD DURING THE TERM OF MY WARRANTY. I HAVE NOTICED THAT IF THE "CHECK ENGINE LIGHT" ISN'T ON, NOR IF YOU'RE NOT PAID OUT OF POCKET, FORD DOES NOT RECOGNIZE A PROBLEM. THIS PROBLEM IS QUITE WORRISOME CONSIDERING I'D HATE TO BE STRANDED WITH MY CHILDREN IN AN INTERSECTION. I LIVE IN A VERY TOWN (LOS ANGELES COUNTY) WHERE TRAFFIC IS STEADY AND AGGRESSIVE SO KNOWING THIS PROBLEM CAN HAPPEN ANYTIME IS UNSETTLING, ESPECIALLY BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN REAR ENDED ONCE FOR NOT BEING ABLE TO PROCEED WITH TRAFFIC AT A GREEN LIGHT. 2008 FORD EDGE, PURCHASE IN 2012

TURNED ON CAR AND PUT IT IN REVERSE THEN DRIVE WHEN PULLING OUT OF PARKING LOT,. TRANSMISSION MADE A LOUD "CLUNK". PRESSED HARD ON GAS BUT CAR WOULD BARELY CRAWL. SPEEDOMETER STOPPED WORKING RPMS WOULD INCREASE DRAMATICALLY, WRENCH, CHECK ENGINE, AIRBAG, AND TIRE PRESSURE LIGHTS ALL CAME ON. CONTINUING ON CITY STREET PROBLEM REMAINED. CAR EVENTUALLY GAINED ENOUGH SPEED THAT RPMS WENT DOWN, BUT THE SPEEDOMETER STILL DID NOT WORK. THE NEXT DAY, THE PROBLEM DISAPPEARED EXCEPT CHECK ENGINE LIGHT REMAINS ON.

SAME COMPLAINTS AS PLENTY OF OTHERS. DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AT 65 MPH AND THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS UP WITH *ODO ERROR*, THE LITTLE SCREWDRIVER LIGHT CAME ON, SHOWS LOW TIRE PRESSURE, THE SEATBELT/AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AND THE ODOMETER STAYED AT ZERO. I COULDN'T ACCELERATE AND WHEN I PARKED IT, RESTARTED IT AND TRIED TO CHANGE GEARS IT SHOOK THE CAR SO HARD AND WAS SO LOUD IT COULD BE HEARD INSIDE THE BUILDING. SOMETHING IS TERRIBLY WRONG WITH THIS MODEL / YEAR OF VEHICLE AND NOTHING IS BEING DONE ABOUT IT. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME IT HAS HAPPENED TO MY CAR. THE FIRST TIME IT RESET ITSELF SO THE DEALERSHIP COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. SO NOW IF I PAY TO HAVE IT TOWED TO A SHOP AND IT RESETS ITSELF BEFORE THEY CAN FIGURE OUT WHAT THE PROBLEM IS, WHICH IS LOOKS AS IF NOBODY CAN FIGURE IT OUT, THEN ITS WASTED MONEY ON A TOW AND A HUGE RISK THAT THIS HAPPENING AGAIN. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND I'M IN SHOCK TO SEE HOW MANY OTHER PEOPLE HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS AND NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE. AS SOON AS I TYPED IN "ODO ERROR" IN GOOGLE IT AUTO FILLED MY EXACT CAR - I DIDN'T EVEN HAVE TO TYPE IT, SO EVEN GOOGLE KNOWS THIS IS A MAJOR MALFUNCTION.

Mileage: 143,000

SAME COMPLAINT AS DOZENS OF OTHER 2008 FORD EDGE OWNERS. ODO ERROR COMES UP, ALMOST ALL WARNING LIGHTS COME ON, TACH AND SPEEDOMETER GO TO ZERO AND CAR IS STUCK IN GEAR MAKING IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOP. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES BUT IS STARTING TO HAPPEN MORE FREQUENTLY AND USUALLY ON THE HIGHWAY. THIS IS CLEARLY A DANGEROUS DEFECT THAT FORD NEEDS TO ADDRESS ASAP BEFORE PEOPLE ARE SERIOUSLY INJURED.

Mileage: 91,000

BOUGHT MY 2008 EDGE IN 2012 AND EXPERIENCED ISSUES WITH ODO READ ERROR MESSAGE AND LOSS OF POWER SHORTLY THERE AFTER. IT HAPPENS MOST FREQUENTLY ON THE FREEWAY AT HIGHER RATES OF SPEED (60- 70 MPH). I HAVE HAD TO PULL OFF THE FREEWAY MULTIPLE TIMES AND RESTART THE CAR. HAVE HEARD FROM A FEW THAT THE SENSORS IN THE TRANSMISSION ARE SHORTING OUT BUT HAVE HEARD OTHER THINGS AS WELL. DEALERS REFUSES TO LOOK INTO PROBLEM AND STATES SINCE LIGHT IS NOT ON THAT THEY CANNOT READ THE CODE. THIS IS DANGEROUS AS THE VEHICLE IS HARD TO KEEP SPEED AND GAIN SPEED ONCE THIS LIGHT COMES ON.

TRANSMISSION, AND TRANSFER-CASE LEAKING DIRECTLY ON THE EXHAUST RIGHT BY THE MANIFOLD AND PROFESSIONAL STATED IT WAS SEVERE FIRE HAZARD AND NOT DRIVE IT, AND ALSO THE REAR MAIN ENGINE OIL SEAL IS LEAKING. THE DEALERSHIP WAS AWARE OF ALL THE ISSUES AND MANIPULATED ME AS A FEMALE INTO PURCHASING THE VEHICLE. THE DEALERSHIP ARGUED THAT THEY WERE NOT RESPONSIBLE AND THAT I HAD A 3 MONTH 3,000 MILE WARRANTY WHEN IN FACT MY PURCHASE AGREEMENT STATED IT WAS AS IS. WHICH MEANS THEY LIED TO ME. THE TRANSMISSION SHOP WHO INSPECTED MY VEHICLE STATED THAT THE LEAKS HAVE BEEN ONGOING FOR QUITE SOMETIME BEFORE I EVEN PURCHASED THE CAR. I JUST PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE IN OCTOBER OF 2015 AND ALREADY HAVE MADE SIX PAYMENTS AND NOW I AM PAYING FOR SOMETHING THAT I CAN NOT EVEN DRIVE BECAUSE IT WAS NOT REPAIRED CORRECTLY THE FIRST TIME SO IT HAD TO BE RETURNED AGAIN. IT IS GOING ON THE FOURTH WEEK. I DO HAVE A LONER BUT I HAVE ALREADY SPENT OVER $300.00 IN GAS. I ONLY HAVE ONE VEHICLE AT THIS TIME AND THAT IS THE FORD EDGE AND IT IS VERY UPSETTING TO THINK THAT I HAVE MADE 3 COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS ISSUES TO THE FORD MOTOR COMPANY ABOUT THE FIRE HAZARD ISSUE AND HAVE HAD NO SATISFACTION OR RESULTS OTHER THEN THEY CLAIM IT THE DEALERS PROBLEM. I HAVE DONE NUMEROUS RESEARCH ABOUT HIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE, AND THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF ISSUES REGARDING THE TRANSMISSION LEAK ON THE EXHAUST AS A FIRE HAZARD. IS THIS GOING TO BE LIKE GENERAL MOTORS, AND WAIT FOR SOMEONES CAR TO ACTUALLY CATCH FIRE??? OR IS IT GOING TO BE LIKE GENERAL MOTORS AND WAIT FOR SOMEONE TO BE KILLED BEFORE THEY WILL DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT? MY VEHICLE IS NOT THE ONLY ONE. THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS OUT THERE REGARDING THE SAME EXACT ISSUE. I AM BASICALLY PAYING FOR A CAR THAT I CANNOT DRIVE AT ALL.

THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS UNDETERMINED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 105,000. THE VIN WAS NOT PROVIDED.

WHILE DRIVING AT 45 MPH, I CAME TO A STOP LIGHT. WHEN IT WAS TIME TO GO, MY EDGE WOULD NOT MOVE. I HAD TO PRESS THE GAS PEDAL TO GET TO MOVE VERY SLOWLY TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THIS HAS HAPPEN SEVERAL TIMES. ALSO, I STOPPED AT MY GARAGE DOOR AND WHEN IT WAS TIME TO GO IN, MY CAR WOULD NOT MOVE. I PUT IT IN REVERSE AND GOT A LOUD CLANKING SOUND. I REVVED THE MOTOR VERY HIGH TO GET IT TO SLOWLY INCH INTO THE GARAGE. THOUGHT IT MIGHT GO OUT THE OTHER SIDE SINCE THE GAS PEDAL WAS PRESSED PRETTY FAR DOWN, MADE IT. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD IT WAS A THROTTLE BODY PROBLEM. PAID CLOSE TO $1000 FOR REPAIRS. LESS THAN 1200 MILES MY PROBLEMS STARTED AGAIN, THIS TIME I'M TOLD I NEED TO REPLACE MY SENSORS, I DID ($900). NOW I'M BACK AGAIN. SAME PROBLEM. THIS TIME I'M TOLD I NEED TO HAVE MY COIL ASSY AND MAIN CONTROL CHECKED AND REPAIR. PROBLEM STARTING AGAIN. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. COULD RESULT IN A INJURY WHEN YOU ARE PULLING INTO TRAFFIC.

Mileage: 109,739

I HAVE A 2008 FORD EDGE LIMITED. I NOTICED THAT WHEN I WOULD GET STUCK IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC THE CAR WOULD NOT SHIFT FROM FIRST TO SECOND GEAR. I WOULD HAVE TO PULL OVER PUT IT IN PARK AND THEN TRY TO GO. THIS HAS HAPPENED QUITE A FEW TIMES. MY MOST RECENT INCIDENT WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING GARAGE AND NEEDING TO BACK UP. WHEN I PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE IT WOULD NOT ENGAGE. IT TOOK SEVERAL TIMES MOVING FROM NEUTRAL TO REVERSE FOR IT TO FINALLY CATCH WITH A HARD JERK.

FORD DEALERS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE PROBLEM AS IT LEAVES NO CODES. FIRST TIME CHARGED $800 FOR "POSSIBLE" CAUSE THAT WASN'T, NOW $1700 AS PCM MELTED AND TOOK ALONG WITH IT ALL IGNITION COILS. GUESS WHAT, ODO DATA ERROR AND TRANSMISSION TROUBLE STILL PRESENT. BOTH THE FORD COMPANY AND YOU PEOPLE AT THE NHTSA NEED TO STEP UP TO THE PLATE AND IF FORD DOESN'T VOLUNTARILY RECALL THE EDGE, YOU OUGHT TO FORCE THEM TO RECALL IT BEFORE SOMEONE GETS MAULED. THIS AUTO DEFECT IS AN ABSOLUTE DANGER TO THE OPERATOR AND ANYONE ELSE ON THE ROAD.

SAME PROBLEMS AS ALL THE OTHER ONES. ON THE EXPRESSWAY AND ODO LIGHT COMES ON ALONG WITH A FEW OTHERS AND CAR SEEMS LIKE IT STUCK IN A HIGHER GEAR AND WON'T EXCELS RATE QUICKLY, LOUD CLUNK FROM TRANS WHEN SHIFTED IN AND OUT OF GEAR. USUALLY HAVE TO TURN OFF CAR AND RESTART A FEW TIMES TO COME BACK TO NORMAL. IT'S OBVIOUS THAT FORD HAS AN ISSUE AND I'M NOT TAKING IT TO THE DEALER AND SPEND THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS FOR REPAIRS THAT WON'T SOLVE THE ISSUE. ALTIMATELY IT SOUNDS LIKE A SOFTWARE ISSUE AND FORD WON'T RECALL TILL MOST OF THE VEHICLES ARE OUT OF SERVICE AS TO SAVE MONEY. I HAVE BEEN A LOYAL FORD DRIVER FOR YEARS BUT THIS IS DEFINITELY TURNING ME TO THE COMPETITION.

I HAVE A 2008 FORD EDGE AND IN THE PAST I HAVE HAD IT AT THE DEALER FOR THE TRANSMISSION SLAMMING AS I SLOWED AND EXCELERATED ON STATE AND TOWNSHIP ROADS. ALSO FOR THE VEHICLE REVING HIGH AND MOVING SLOW FROM A STOP. LATELY I'VE BEEN HAVING THE SAME ISSUES AND ON SATURDAY 1/16/2016 I NOTICED A GREASE LIKE SUBSTANCE UNDER MY CAR. UPON CONTACTING A MECHANIC HE STATED THAT THE LEAK WAS FROM THE PTU AND THAT THE FORD EDGE IS KNOWN FOR THIS PROBLEM AND THAT IT WOULD COST BETWEEN $1700 AND $2400 TO REPLACE THE PTU. I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE NEW IN JANUARY 2009 AND HAD THE EXTENDED WARRANTY UNTIL 2015. THE EXCELLERATION ISSUE IS AS I TRAVEL ON HIGHWAYS AND THE VEHICLE DOESN'T EXCELERATE. I HAVE TO SLOW DOWN OR STOP ANDTURN OFF THE VEHICLE TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. I FEEL THESE ISSUES MAY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT WHILE TRAVELING ON MAJOR HIGHWAY (I-95, RT 202, RT263) THAT I TRAVEL FREQUENTLY. I FEEL THAT WITH THE COMPLAINTS IN REGARD TO THIS MATTER, THAT IT SHOULD BE CHECKED BY FORD AND REPAIR OR REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE PARTS.

OBVIOUSLY NOT AS SERIOUS EPISODE AS THESE OTHERS I'M READING, BUT I'M NOT DRIVING IT FOR A WEEK TO AVOID A DANGEROUS SITUATION. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THERE HASN'T BEEN A RECALL TO AVOID A TRAGEDY AND A DEFINITE LAWSUIT! I'M BEING AS PROACTIVE AS I CAN TO AVOID A DANGER, BUT THE COST AT THE FORD DEALER IS ESTIMATED AT ABOUT $1700. IF THERE IS A RECALL AFTER MY CAR IS FIXED, WILL THERE BE COMPENSATION TO ME?

I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE, 2008 FORD EDGE SEL AWD NOVEMBER 2014 WITH APPROXIMATELY 82,000 MILES ON IT. LAST NIGHT WHEN DRIVING HOME IN VERY SLOW TRAFFIC 5 TO 10 MPH DUE TO SNOW ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN TRAFFIC PICKED UP SPEED I COULDN'T ACCELERATE AS THE RPM PICKED UP BUT THE TRANSMISSION WOULDN'T SHIFT OUT OF LOW. MY FORD EDGE ACTED LIKE IT WOULDN'T SHIFT UP FROM LOW SO I COULD KEEP UP WITH TRAFFIC. I HAD TO PULL OVER ON THE SHOULDER NOT KNOWING WHAT TO DO NEXT. I TURNED THE ENGINE OFF AND RESTARTED AND IT ACCELERATED FINE SO I COULD KEEP UP WITH THE MAJOR TRAFFIC FLOW. AND I DID NOTICE RECENTLY IT DOES MAKE A CLUNK WHEN I SHIFT INTO REVERSE. MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE HERE AS NOT BEING ABLE TO GET OUT OF TRAFFIC QUICKLY AND SAFELY AND HAVING TO PULL OVER ON THE SHOULDER TO TURN THE ENGINE OFF AND RESTART IF THERE EVEN IS A SHOULDER TO PULL OVER TOO COULD BE A DANGER TO MYSELF AND OTHERS.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE FREEWAY AT APPROX 75 MPH FOR 1 HOUR, VEHICLE SUDDLENLY STOPPED ACCELERATING, ODO WENT BLANK, SPEEDO ZERO, AIRBAG AND POWERTRAIN LIGHTS CAME ON. I CUT ACROSS 6 LANES OF VERY HEAVY TRAFFIC TO EXIT AND STRUGGLED TO GET UP THE INCLINE. PARKED AT THE NEAREST LOT AND SHUT OFF THE ENGINE. RESTARTED WITH A LOUD CLUNK AND DASH WAS OK EXCEPT POWERTRAIN LIGHT WAS STILL ON. PUT IN REVERSE AND FELT A VIOLENT CLUNK. DROVE TO A NEARBY FORD DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY DIAGNOSED BAD TURBINE SHAFT SPEED AND OUTPUT SHAFT SPEED SENSORS. THEY PERFORMED THE REPAIRS AT MY COST OF $856.91. I PICKED UP THE CAR AND DROVE IT 80 MILES BACK HOME 2 DAYS LATER WITH NO PROBLEMS. TODAY, 6 DAYS LATER, I AM EXPERIENCING EXTREMELY ROUGH SHIFTING, ESPECIALLY AT AROUND 40 AND 60 MPH AND VERY BAD HESITATION WHERE THE ENTIRE VEHICLE VIBRATES AND DOES NOT SEEM TO KNOW WHAT GEAR TO BE IN. NOT ONLY IS THIS VEHICLE DANGEROUS AND DEFECTIVE, THE EXPENSIVE REPAIRS ARE NOT CORRECTING THE PROBLEM AND HAVE MADE IT WORSE.

I WAS DRIVING ON HIGHWAY WHEN CAR WOULD NOT GO, HIT THE GAS BUT CAR DID NOT MOVE. PUT INTO REVERSE AND SOUNDED LIKE THE TRANSMISSION WAS GOING TO DROP, LOUD CLUNK. FORTUNATE TO COME UPON A RED LIGHT SO CARS WERE NOT MOVING FAST TO HIT ME OR KILL ME! THIS HAPPENED ANOTHER TIME IN NEW JERSEY! YIKES!! AND I HAD TO PULL OVER, SHUT THE CAR OFF AND THEN RESTART CAR. I IMMEDIATELY TOOK CAR TO DEALER AND THEY DID NOT KNOW WHAT IT WAS UNLESS MESSAGE WAS ON CONTROL PANEL, I WENT ON INTERNET TO SEE IF I COULD FIND OUT ANY INFO FOR THE PROBLEM. I DID FIND A GREAT MANY COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER PEOPLE SAYING THEY HAD THE SAME ISSUES. I NEED TO KNOW WHO IS RESPONSIBLE BEFORE I GET KILLED. IS ANYTHING BEING DONE TO RESOLVE THIS PROBLEM AND WHO WILL CORRECT IT? PLEASE ADVISE.

AUTO TRANSMISSION WILL NOT SHIFT, ENGINE REVS AND NO POWER, WRENCH LIGHT AIRBAG WARNING LIGHTS,DEAD SPEEDO, ODOMETER SHOWS DASHES. HAD TRANS FLUID CHANGED. NO HELP. I HAVE SEEN SEVERAL PROBLEMS NOTED ON THE INTERNET. DEALERS ARE NOT FIXING THE PROBLEM BY REBUILDING THE TRANS FOR SEVERAL THOUSAND DOLLARS. THE TRANS FAILING SHOULD NOT AFFECT THE VARIOUS ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS ASSOCIATED WITH THIS INCIDENT. THE SYSTEM WILL RESET IF THE ENGINE IS TURNED OFF AND THEN RESTARTED WITH NOTHING INDICATING A PROBLEM. THERE DOESNT APPEAR TO BE ANY CODES SET. I URGE FORD TO EMBRACE THESE PROBLEMS BEFORE SOMEONE IS HURT BECAUSE THE TRANS "JUMPS" OUT OF GEAR AND CAUSES AN ACCIDENT. THIS REPORTED PROBLEM SHOULD NOT BE "NEWS" TO YOUR COMPLAINTS DEPARTMENT. I HAVE CHOSEN TO ALWAYS PREFER A FORD PRODUCTS DURING MY 50 YEARS OF DRIVING AND EXPECT AN HONEST, THOROUGH AND CONCISE INVESTIGATION BE GIVEN TO THIS PROBLEM.

TAKATA RECALL - VEHICLE LOSES SPEED CONTROL POWER WHILE DRIVING. WRENCH LIGHT COMES ON INDICATING SERVICE NEEDED. WHEN VEHICLE SHUTS OFF, RESETS ITSELF AND ABLE TO DRIVE 100-150 MILES AND THEN THE WRENCH LIGHT COMES ON AGAIN. CALLED DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT IN ORDER TO IDENTIFY THE PROBLEM, THE WRENCH LIGHT WOULD HAVE TO BE ON FOR THEM TO DIAGNOSE THE ISSUE. MY SISTER DOES NOT DRIVE MUCH, SO WHEN IT HAPPENED AGAIN, SHE HAPPENED TO BE CLOSE TO AN AUTO ZONE STORE AND SHE STOPPED TO HAVE THEM TO READ THE CODE IN ORDER TO GET THE ERROR READING. THE CODE WAS P0715 - REFERRING TO TURBINE INPUT SPEED SHAFT SENSOR. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND FORD SHOULD RECALL THIS AS IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE. I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE FOR MY SISTER 6 MONTHS AGO. AT THE THE TIME IN WHICH I BOUGHT THIS CAR FOR MY SISTER, 2 WEEKS LATER SHE WAS DIAGNOSED WITH A BRAIN TUMOR AND CANNOT DRIVE. SHE HAS HER SON OR DAUGHTER TO DRIVE HER TO HER MEDICAL APPOINTMENTS AND WHERE EVER SHE NEEDS TO GO. THE LAST THING I NEED IS FOR HER TO BE INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT AND POTENTIALLY DIE FROM A DEFECT IN WHICH THE MANUFACTURER COULD HAVE PREVENTED. FORD NEEDS TO ISSUE A RECALL ON THIS BEFORE PEOPLE ARE SERIOUSLY INJURED OR DIE. WHY WAIT UNTIL SOMETHING BAD HAPPENS BEFORE YOU FIX THE ISSUE IS BEYOND ANYTHING THAT I CAN COMPREHEND.

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

SOMETIMES THE TRANSMISSION WILL NOT DRIVE THE CAR AFTER A STOP OR IF CHANGING FROM DRIVE TO REVERSE OR REVERSE TO DRIVE. RPM WILL GO VERY HIGH AND ONLY MOVE THE CAR VERY SLOWLY. AT OTHER TIMES THERE WILL BE A BAD SHIFT OR A STRANGE SOUND. THIS CAN HAPPEN ANY TIME, WHEN FIRST STARTING OUT FOR THE DAY, AFTER RUNNING FOR A TIME, AFTER A LONG DRIVE OR AFTER STOPPING FOR A TURN, RED LIGHT, STOP SIGN OR JUST SLOWING DOWN. THE DEALER SAYS THERE IS NOTHING WRONG. ALSO NOISE COMING FROM THE REAR WHILE IN MOTION. I BELIEVE THE SENSORS ARE INTERMITTENT AS I HAD A SIMILAR PROBLEM WITH MY DODGE CARAVAN WHICH WENT AWAY AFTER I REPLACED THE SENSORS MYSELF BECAUSE THE REPAIR STATION TOLD ME THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG AFTER 3 ATTEMPTS TO HAVE THE PROBLEM RECTIFIED. YOU ARE ALL SUPPOSED TO BE PROFESSIONAL EXPERTS SO FIX THE PROBLEM.

I WAITED A FEW MINUTES TURNED MY CAR BACK ON A VERY ODD NOISE HAPPENED THE SPEEDOMETER WAS BACK ON AND THE LIGHTS WERE GONE, I WENT TO PUT THE CAR IN D AND THE ODD NOISE AGAIN, PUSHED THE GAS TO ACCELERATE AND NOTHING. CURRENTLY MY CAR IS ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WAITING A TOW 1 HOUR AWAY FROM HOME. I'M LUCKY MY CHILDREN WERE NOT WITH ME WHEN THIS OCCURRED, IT COULD HAVE BEEN VERY DANGEROUS.

I HAVE A 2008 FORD EDGE, I HAVE BEEN NOTICING OVER THE PAST FEW MONTHS THAT AT RANDOM TIMES THE CAR WILL LURCH FORWARD WHEN ACCELERATING AS IF IT SUDDENLY RECEIVED A BURST OF SPEED. ONE DAY I WAS AT A STOP LIGHT AND I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE SO THAT I COULD DRIVE AND THE CAR WOULDN'T MOVE AND WHEN I PRESSED HARDER ON THE ACCELERATOR THERE WAS A LOUD BANG NOISE THAT SOUNDED LIKE THE CAR SUDDENLY CLICKED INTO DRIVE. IT HAS BEEN HAPPENING MORE AND MORE OFTEN WHERE IT LAGS AND STICKS AND LURCHES FORWARD WHEN IT FINALLY WANTS TO GO. TODAY, IT HAD SERIOUS ISSUES WHERE I WAS TRYING TO ACCELERATE AND THE CAR WAS INSTEAD SLOWING DOWN AND LURCHING FORWARD WITH THE SOUND OF THE ENGINE STRAINING AND MAKING NOISE. I HAD TO PULL OVER BECAUSE THE CARS BEHIND ME HAD TO GO AROUND ME. I WAS EXTREMELY NERVOUS THAT THE CAR WOULD STALL IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD OR CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. WHEN I PULLED OVER AND TURNED THE CAR OFF AND THEN TURNED IT BACK ON THE PROBLEM SEEMED TO LESSEN I ONLY DROVE AT A LOW SPEED TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT. I HAVE TWO CHILDREN AND THIS CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. I WILL TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP ASAP. IT ALSO ROLLS BACKWARD ON AN INCLINE. FORD NEEDS TO DO A RECALL ON THIS VEHICLE BECAUSE I HAVE DONE SOME ONLINE RESEARCH TODAY AND SEE THAT MANY MANY PEOPLE HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEMS. THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED.

MOST RECENT 8/14/2015, PULLED OUT INTO TRAFFIC AND THE CAR LOST POWER, BUT THE ENGINE WAS STILL RUNNING. RPM'S WILL GO UP, BUT THE CAR WILL NOT MOVE. REVERSE WORKS. TOOK IT TO AUTO ZONE, NO CODES WILL COME UP. WHEN I BOUGHT IT OFF THE LOT (9 MONTHS AGO) IT WAS WORKING JUST FINE AND HAS BEEN GOING DOWN EVER SINCE. SINCE LAST NOVEMBER (11/2014) WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR, WHEN DRIVING THE CARS SPEEDOMETER WILL DROP DOWN TO ZERO AND A WRENCH LIGHT WILL COME ON WITH A FEW OTHER LIGHTS AND ACT LIKE IT IS STUCK IN A HIGH GEAR. AFTER TUNING THE CAR COMPLETELY OFF (KEY OUT OF IGNITION AND DOOR OPENING AND CLOSING) AND CHECKING FLUIDS I STARTED THE CAR BACK UP AND HEARD A LOUD CLUNK AND WHEN I PUT IT INTO DRIVE THERE WAS ANOTHER CLUNK AND AFTER GETTING THE CAR UP TO ABOUT 10MPH (THE CAR IS STILL ACTING LIKE ITS STUCK IN A HIGH GEAR) THERE WAS ANOTHER LOUD CLUNK AND THE TRANSMISSION WOULD CATCH AND ACT LIKE NOTHING HAPPENED. THIS PROCESS REPEATS EVER SINGLE DAY UNLESS I DRIVE IT WITH THE OVER DRIVE OFF, THEN IT WILL STILL HAPPEN BUT ABOUT ONLY TWICE A MONTH. EX: HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=SK3ITIC2-RS HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=PX3SC2YCMEO I HAVE CALLED FORD CORPORATE AFTER GOOGLING THE PROBLEM AND SEEM THERE ARE 1000'S OF CASES EXPLAINING THE SAME THING AND THEY WILL ONLY TELL ME "THAT'S ODD SEEMS LIKE YOUR CAR IS THE ONLY ONE THAT'S DOING THIS". I HAVE TAKEN IT TO SEVERAL DEALERSHIP, NONE OF WHICH WILL DO ANYTHING BECAUSE THEY CANNOT FIND A CODE. EVEN WHEN THE CAR HAS A WRENCH LIGHT ON AND WILL BARLEY MOVE. THIS PROBLEM NEEDS TO GET RESOLVED BEFORE A SEVERE ACCIDENT OCCURS. HAVE I MENTIONED THIS IS MY ONLY CAR? FROM WHAT I HAVE READ IT COULD BE A COUPLE DIFFERENT SENSORS AND IF THIS IS NOT RESOLVED THIS WAS THE ONLY AND LAST FORD I WILL EVER OWN.

I WAS DRIVING BETWEEN 40-45 MPH ON A MAIN ROAD JUST AFTER 12 AM WHEN THE DASHBOARD LIT UP. THE CHECK ENGINE/WRENCH & AIRBAG LIGHTS CAME ON, THE ODOMETER DISPLAYED AN 'ODO DATA ERROR' MESSAGE (NO MILEAGE), & THE SPEEDOMETER NEEDLE DROPPED TO 0 MPH DESPITE STILL TRAVELING AT 40-45 MPH (I RELIED ON MY CELL PHONE'S GPS FOR MY TRAVELING SPEED). THE VEHICLE WAS RESPONSIVE, BRAKING, ACCELERATING, & DECELERATING NORMALLY, AS I LOOKED FOR SOMEWHERE TO PULL OVER. I CAME TO A FULL STOP AT A RED LIGHT & WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN, I PUSHED DOWN ON THE GAS PEDAL BUT THE VEHICLE WAS NEARLY UNRESPONSIVE. I FULLY PUSHED DOWN ON THE GAS PEDAL BUT THE CAR ONLY GAINED ENOUGH SPEED TO CRAWL THROUGH THE INTERSECTION. I PULLED INTO A PARKING LOT JUST PAST THE INTERSECTION, PUT THE CAR IN PARK, SHUT IT OFF, & WAITED 5 MINUTES BEFORE TURNING IT BACK ON. THE WARNING LIGHTS WERE OFF & THE ODOMETER MESSAGE WAS GONE BUT WHEN I SHIFTED INTO DRIVE, THERE WAS A LOUD, WRENCHING SOUND & THE ENTIRE CAR JERKED...STILL BARELY ABLE TO ACCELERATE & THE SPEEDOMETER STAYING AT 0, UNRESPONSIVE TO THE GAS PEDAL. I SHIFTED INTO REVERSE WITH THE SAME RESULTS. AFTER A FEW UNSUCCESSFUL ATTEMPTS WITH THE SAME RESULTS, I CALLED FOR A RIDE & LEFT THE CAR IN THE PARKING LOT, ARRANGING A TOW TO THE FORD DEALER WHERE IT WAS PURCHASED. THE FORD SERVICE DEPARTMENT DID A TEST DRIVE IN THEIR LOT & THE VEHICLE WAS OPERATING NORMALLY BUT PULLED COMPUTER ERROR CODES INDICATING FAULTY SENSORS (THE OUTPUT SPEED SENSOR & TURBINE SPEED SENSOR, WHICH WEREN'T 'COMMUNICATING PROPERLY'). I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A LOCAL SHOP FOR REPAIR SINCE IT HAD JUST RUN OUT OF WARRANTY. I'M LUCKY BETHIS COULD HAVE BEEN A MUCH MORE DANGEROUS SITUATION IF IT HAD HAPPENED ON A BUSY ROAD OR A ROAD WITH A HIGHER SPEED LIMIT AND FEWER STOPS.

THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM FOR A WHILE NOW (YEARS). WHAT IS HAPPENING IS MY TRANSMISSION IS STRUGGLING TO SHIFT INTO GEAR, BUT MORE OFTEN WHEN TRAVELING AT APPROXIMATELY 15-25 MPH. AT THIS SPEED, IT WILL SHIFT BUT OFTENTIMES WHEN IT SHIFTS THERE IS A THUD AND HARD JERK, ALMOST SEEMING AS MY TRANSMISSION IS GOING TO DROP RIGHT OUT OF MY CAR. WHEN I FIRST HAD THIS DIAGNOSED, THE DEALERSHIP THOUGHT PERHAPS MY PCM NEEDED RECALIBRATED. SHORTLY AFTER THE RECALIBRATION, THE ENTIRE PCM FRIED AND IT NEEDED REPLACED. LUCKILY, IT WAS COVERED UNDER AN 80,000 MILE WARRANTY (MY CAR HAD ABOUT 75,000 MILES ON IT...PHEW). NEEDLESS TO SAY, AFTER THE ENTIRE PCM REPLACEMENT, MY CAR STILL STRUGGLES TO SHIFT AND, UNFORTUNATELY, IT SEEMS LIKE I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE HAVING THIS PROBLEM. *TR

1ST OCCURRENCE: THE VEHICLE'S SPEEDOMETER WENT TO 0 AND WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON. AS THE VEHICLE SLOWED AND I TRIED TO ACCELERATE OUT OF TRAFFIC, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT MOVE. IT SEEMED TO BE STUCK IN A HIGH GEAR. I SAT ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND WAS ALMOST ROBBED WHILE I WAS WAITING ON MY HUSBAND TO ARRIVE FOR HELP. AFTER MY HUSBAND ARRIVED AND THE CAR HAD BEEN OFF FOR ABOUT 30 MINUTES, HE STARTED IT AND IT DROVE LIKE NORMAL. 2ND OCCURRENCE: ABOUT 1 MONTH LATER, THE SAME THING HAPPENED WITH THE VEHICLE, FORTUNATELY I WAS CLOSER TO HOME. MY HUSBAND RAN THROUGH THE SAME PROCESS OF ALLOWING THE CAR TO COOL OFF AND RESTARTING IT. AFTER SOME INVESTIGATION ONLINE, THIS ISSUE SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE FORD EDGE. IT APPEARS TO BE A PAIR OF SENSORS, CALLED THE TURBINE SENSOR AND TRANSMISSION SPEED SENSOR. IT ALSO APPEARS THAT THESE SENSORS COST ABOUT $800 TO REPLACE. IF THIS IS SUCH A COMMON PROBLEM, WHY HAS THERE NOT BEEN A RECALL FROM FORD? *TR

I BOUGHT A CERTIFIED PRE OWNED 2008 EDGE IN JUNE 2013. I FIRST EXPERIENCED THE HARD JERKING PROBABLY EARLY 2014 OR MAYBE IN THE WINTER OF 2013. IT HAD TROUBLE SHIFTING UP WHEN CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP. THIS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES AND I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP BUT THEY COULDN'T REPRODUCE IT. THEY FIXED A TRANSMISSION LEAK AND UPDATED SOME SOFTWARE ON TWO SEPARATE VISITS. BOTH TIMES THE PROBLEM WENT AWAY FOR A FEW DAYS AND THEN CAME BACK AGAIN. IT WAS NOT SERIOUS ENOUGH THEN. THIS YEAR IT OCCURS MORE OFTEN (USUALLY IN THE STOP AND GO TRAFFIC) AND THERE IS ALSO ABRUPT JERK WHEN THE CAR SHIFTS UP FROM 10-20 MPH OR FROM 20-30 MPH. THE POWERTRAIN MALFUNCTION SYMBOL CAME ON TODAY. BUT AFTER I LET THE CAR SIT FOR HALF AN HOUR AND RESTARTED IT, THE SYMBOL WAS GONE. I'M TAKING IT TO THE DEALERSHIP SOON AND HOPE THEY CAN DO SOMETHING. THE PROBLEM SEEMS TO ONLY OCCUR IN COLD WEATHER. THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS ISSUE ONLINE. IT COULD BE DANGEROUS IF IT HAPPENS AT AN INTERSECTION OR ON A HIGHWAY. FORD SHOULD RECALL THESE CARS BECAUSE THEY ARE UNSAFE TO DRIVE. *TR

WE HAD A GPS THAT WE WERE USING AND DISPLAYED OUR SPEED, SO WE KEPT GOING THE 5 MILES TO OUR PLANNED STOP ALONG THE WAY HOME. WHEN WE RESTARTED THE CAR, THE GAUGES WERE BACK UP BUT IT MADE A LOUD THUMPING SOUND WHEN CHANGING GEARS. IT REVERSED FINE (BUT WE WERE ON A SLOPE), THEN THUMPED AGAIN AS WE SWITCHED TO DRIVE. THE CAR ONLY REVVED AND DID NOT MOVE. WE REVERSED AGAIN TO SITUATE OURSELVES SO THE SLOPE WAS IN OUR FAVOR WHEN WE SWITCHED TO DRIVE. IT WAS A TOUGH START, BUT IT DID GO. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP TO REPORT (THIS WAS ON A SATURDAY) AND WAS TOLD THAT I COULD BRING IT IN, BUT THEY WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO LOOK AT IT UNTIL TUESDAY.

WHEN I STARTED IT BACK UP ALL THE ERROR MESSAGES CLEARED, BUT WHEN I WENT TO PUT MY CAR INTO DRIVE IT SOUNDED AS IF THE TRANSMISSION HAD DROPPED. I TRIED DRIVING ONLY TO REV THE ENGINE UP TO 3000 RPM WITH BARELY ANY MOVEMENT. WHEN EVER SHIFTING FROM DRIVE OR REVERSE IT MADE THAT LOUD POPPING NOISE. I TOOK IT TO A DEALERSHIP TO BE TOLD IT STOPPED DOING IT BUT THEY DIDN'T FIX IT. THEY MADE NO REPAIRS. THEY ARE LETTING ME PICK THE CAR UP AND DRIVE IT AGAIN WITH OUT ANY ACTUAL RESOLUTION, BUT THEY DID CHARGE ME MONEY TO "LOOK AT THE CAR". DO PEOPLE ACTUALLY HAVE TO DIE FOR SOMEONE TO ISSUE A RECALL?

I SENT AN EMAIL TO THE FORD COMPANY , WE HAVE A 2008 FORD EDGE WE BOUGHT NEW WE HAVE ALWAYS HAD AN ISSUE WITH THE TRANSMISSION AND THE CAR NOT MOVING UNLESS YOU STOP AND RESTART IT, THE ISSUE WAS SO SPORADIC FROM THE 1ST YEAR THAT WE HAVE HAD IN THE DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES AND THEY CANT SEEM TO FIND A PROBLEM, THE CAR WOULD HAVE THE AIR BAG, WRENCH AND LOW TIRE LIGHT ON AND THE ODOMETER WOULD BE ALL DASHES, YOU COULD FLOOR IT AND THE TACH WILL MOVE BUT THE SPEEDOMETER WOULD NOT MOVE AND THE CAR WOULD BARELY MOVE, LATELY THE ISSUE HAS BECOME AN EVERYDAY THING YET STILL THE DEALERSHIP CANT FIND THE PROBLEM,I WAS CHECKING ONLINE AND FOUND THAT MANY PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE WITH THEIR EDGE, MANY VIDEOS SHOWING THE EXACT PROBLEM ,MY FORD DEALER IS LOOKING AT IT AGAIN. WE CAN NOT BE THE ONLY ONE HAVING THIS ISSUE. *TR

I HAVE ONLY HAD MY EDGE A MONTH, HAD IT CHECKED BUMPER TO BUMPER BEFORE PURCHASE (I WORK AT AN AUTO SHOP) AND READ REVIEWS ONLINE. I WISH I HAD SEEN THESE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE TRANSMISSION AND HARD SHIFTING/REVVING BEFORE PURCHASE!! AS SOON AS I BOUGHT IT, WITHIN A FEW DAYS WHEN I WOULD LEAVE WORK AND TRY TO ACCELERATE IT HESITATES, CLUNKS LOUDLY, THEN FINALLY CATCHES AND TAKES OFF.. I'VE ALREADY HAD NEW PLUGS/BOOTS/COILS DONE, NEW BELTS AND FLUSHES DONE. YESTERDAY WAS THE WORST - I WAS TAKING OFF FROM A RED LIGHT AND AS I WAS PRESSING THE PEDAL IT REVVED AND JERKED AND BANGED. SO GLAD I HAVEN'T EVEN MADE MY FIRST PAYMENT YET AND SEEING THESE COMPLAINTS, ALREADY KNOW I'M GOING TO BE SINKING MASSIVE MONEY INTO THIS VEHICLE! PLEASE RECALL FORD!!! I'VE DRIVEN CRAPPY CARS MY ENTIRE LIFE, I FINALLY GET SOMETHING THAT LOOKS NICE I SEE IS JUST ANOTHER MONEY PIT LEMON! *TR

DROVE THE CAR TO WORK WITHOUT ANY ISSUE. AFTER WORK, I DROVE TO A NEARBY CONVENIENCE STORE BY MY HOUSE AND HAD NO ISSUE. I LEFT THE STORE AND STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT. WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN, I STEPPED ON THE GAS PEDAL BUT THE CAR BARELY MOVED AND WAS LABORING. I CHECKED TO MAKE SURE I WASN'T ON THE L GEAR BUT IT WASN'T BECAUSE I WAS ON D. I KEPT PRESSING ON THE GAS AND NOTICED A WRENCH LIGHT ON IN THE DASHBOARD. I MADE IT HOME AT LESS THAN 10 MILES PER HOUR WHICH WAS THE FASTEST THAT THE CAR WOULD GO. *TR

I PULLED OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY AND EVERYTHING WAS FINE. I PULLED OUT OF MY NEIGHBORHOOD AND AS SOON AS I GAVE IT ANY GOOD AMOUNT OF GAS IT STARTING DRIVING REALLY ROUGH AND SHAKING AND THE A/C WENT OUT YOU COULD HEAR THE MISFIRE ON THE CYLINDERS AND THE TRANSMISSION WAS REVVING HIGH BEFORE IT WOULD SHIFT GEARS. NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS OR ANYTHING AT THIS POINT. I TURNED BACK AROUND AND TOOK MY CAR BACK HOME TURNED IT OFF AND THEN TURNED IT BACK ON AND THAT'S WHEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. WE PULLED THE CODE AND IT WAS P0352 (IGNITION COIL 2 OR PCM) SO WE BOUGHT AND CHANGED ALL SPARK PLUGS AND COIL 2. THIS STILL DIDN'T FIX THE PROBLEM. SO I TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP AND $3000 LATER THEY HAD TO REPLACE MY PCM (THE MAIN COMPUTER THAT RUN THE CAR) ALL 6 COILS AND SPARK PLUGS. I DID A LOT OF RESEARCH ABOUT MY CAR HAVING THIS PROBLEM AND IT SEEMS LIKE A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. PLEASE RECALL THIS. MY COMPUTER SHOULD NOT HAVE GONE OUT WHEN I DO REGULAR MAINTENANCE ON MY CAR. *TR

DRIVING THROUGH PARKING LOT WHEN SHIFT BETWEEN GEARS BECOMES VERY ROUGH. ENGINE REVS- BUT CAR HAS NO FORWARD MOVEMENT. WE WERE ABLE TO GET THE CAR IN REVERSE, AND BACK IN TO A PARKING SPACE. WE SHUT THE CAR OFF- TURNED THE CAR BACK ON AND THE ISSUE WAS RESOLVED- STILL SHIFTED A LITTLE HARD. *TR

I WAS DRIVING UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS AT ABOUT 35 MPH WHEN THE TRANSMISSION SEEMED TO BE SLIPPING AND THE WRENCH CAME ON THE DASH AND THE CAR LOST ALL POWER . I CAME TO A STOP AND SHUT THE CAR OFF AND CHECKED THE TRANSMISSION FLUID AND IT WAS GOOD. I STARTED THE CAR AGAIN AND IT WOULD REV HIGH BUT BARELY MOVE. I GOT HOME SLOWLY AND PARKED IT AND WHEN I CAME BACK OUT LATER AND TRIED IT, ALL THE POWER WAS BACK AND THE WRENCH WAS GONE AND IT DIDN'T CLUNK INTO GEARS LIKE IT WAS EARLIER. I THINK BY SHUTTING IT OFF AND TAKING OUT THE KEY FOR A COUPLE HOURS RESET A COMPUTER GLITCH IN THIS CAR. I HAVE HEARD MANY STORIES JUST LIKE MINE AND SPEAKING FOR MANY 08 EDGE OWNERS WE WANT THIS RECALLED. THIS COULD RESULT IN TONS OF MECHANIC BILLS AND UNANSWERED ISSUES FOR OWNERS. *TR

Mileage: 125,980

THE VEHICLE STALLS AT LOW SPEEDS AND AT RED LIGHTS AND STOP SIGNS WITHOUT WARNING AND WITHOUT GREAT CONSISTENCY. THIS HAPPENS MULTIPLE TIMES PER DAY/TRIP WITH NO RESOLUTION. DEALER AND INDEPENDENT MECHANIC CANNOT IDENTIFY THE PROBLEM AS NO CODES ARE THROWN WHEN IT HAPPENS AND IT RESTARTS AFTER STALLING. THIS IS A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUE. *TR

VEHICLE LOST ALL POWER WHILE DRIVING IN TRAFFIC AND STEERING LOCKED WHEN TURNING THE CORNER AT INTERSECTION CAUSING LOSS OF CONTROL OF VEHICLE. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS UNDER RANDOM CONDITIONS. WEATHER CONDITIONS, VEHICLE TEMPERATURE, SPEED, DIRECTION, BRAKING OR ACCELERATION DOES NOT HAVE ANY FACTORS WHEN THIS HAPPENS. THE VEHICLE SHUTS OFF RANDOMLY AND POWER IS LOST. NO CODES OR WARNING OF ANY KIND.

BOUGHT MY 2008 FORD EDGE 3 YEARS AGO WITH NO PROBLEMS. HAD SOME WORK DONE AFTER A WRECK YEAR AND A HALF AGO. AFTER THE REPAIR, IT BEGAN JERKING WHETHER I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY OR CITY STREETS. I NOTICED THAT WHEN IT JERKS, I LOSE RPMS AT THE SAME TIME. I HAVE TO HIT THE GAS TO GET IT TO ACCELERATE. FEELS LIKE THE GEARS ARE SLIPPING AND IT DOESN'T HAPPEN T CONSISTENT SPEEDS. SOME DAYS ARE WORSE THAN OTHERS AND SOME DAYS DOESN'T OCCUR AT ALL. IT WILL ALSO IDLE ROUGH AND HAD BEFORE JERKED WHEN GOING FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE. ALSO, APRIL 2014, I WAS BACKING INTO A PARKING SPOT WHEN THE CAR COMPLETELY DIED. I TURNED THE IGNITION OFF AND THEN STARTED THE CAR AGAIN. IT STARTED RIGHT UP. THAT IS THE ONLY TIME THAT HAS HAPPENED. *TR

THE VEHICLE REVS UP BUT DOESN'T GO ANYWHERE THEN JERKS INTO GEAR. *TR

AFTER EXITING HWY I WAS SLOWING DOWN AT A STOP LIGHT. AT ABOUT 25 MPH MY DASH LIGHTS LIT UP. WRENCH, TIRE PRESSURE AND AIR BAG LIGHTS ARE LIT. SPEED-O WAS NOT WORKING. AFTER LIGHT TURNED GREEN THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE WITHOUT PUSHING GAS TO THE FLOOR AND RPM'S REACHED 5000RPM'S AS I WAS GOING THROUGH A VERY BUSY 4 WAY INTERSECTION. I PULLED OFF TUE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND PUT CAR IN PARK. WHILE SHIFTING BACK INTO DRIVE THE TRANSMISSION DID A VERY LOUD CLUNK AS IT SHIFTED THROUGH REVERSE AND NEUTRAL TO DRIVE. AFTER TURNING CAR OFF AND LETTING SET FOR MANY MINUTES IT NEVER RESET OR RESOLVED IT'S SELF. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS SITUATION AND NEEDS TO BE RESOLVED BY FORD ASAP. *TR

Mileage: 72,685

MY FAMILY AND I WERE COMING HOME FROM A NICE DAY OUT, WE STOPPED AT THE STOP LIGHT AND WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN WE WENT TO ACCELERATE AND THERE WAS NO POWER, MY DASH LIT UP WITH A LOW TIRE PRESSURE CODE, A WRENCH CODE " AWD/POWERTRAIN ISSUE" AND A AIR BAG CODE MY ODOMETER STOPPED WORKING AND THE DIGITAL MILEAGE ONLY DISPLAYED DASHES. ONCE WE WERE ABLE TO MAKE IT THRU THE LIGHT "BARELY" WE PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WHERE WE COULD SAFELY CHECK OUT THE VEHICLE. ONCE WE DETERMINED NO FLAT TIRE WE TRIED TO MOVE FORWARD BUT THE VEHICLE WOULD ONLY CRAWL AND THIS WAS PUTTING THE GAS PEDAL ALL THE WAY DOWN. WE WERE FINALLY ABLE TO MAKE IT HOME WE SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF AND WHEN WE RESTARTED AND PUT INTO GEAR WE HEARD A LOUD CLUNK AND THE VEHICLE SHOOK AND RATTLED. I RESEARCHED ONLINE I FOUND THIS HAS HAPPENED FREQUENTLY TO MANY OTHER FORD EDGE OWNERS WITH NO SAFETY RECALL FROM FORD ???? THIS IS CRAZY SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET HURT BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE . *TR

Mileage: 109,000

I BACKED UP INTO THE STREET LEAVING MY DRIVEWAY, I PUT IT IN DRIVE TO MOVE FORWARD AND WENT ABOUT 50 FEET AND THE CAR JERKED AND WOULD NOT MOVE ANYMORE, I TRIED TO PRESS ON THE ACCELERATOR AND THE CAR WOULD NOT GO. THIS IS NOT AN ACCEPTABLE ISSUE, I FEEL THAT IF MY WIFE WAS IN THE CAR ON THE FREEWAY THIS WOULD HAVE BEEN BAD. *TR

THIS HAS NOW HAPPENED TO ME TWICE WITH BOTH MY SMALL CHILDREN IN THE CAR WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY, AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. T HE SPEEDOMETER WENT TO 0, THE MAINTENANCE WRENCH DISPLAY LIT UP, ALONG WITH THE ERROR MESSAGE "TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR FAULT" (OR SOMETHING TO THAT EFFECT) AND I WAS UNABLE AFTER STOPPING AT A STOP LIGHT TO ACCELERATE ALMOST CAUSING THE PERSON BEHIND ME TO REAR END ME. ONCE GETTING TO MY HOME WHEN PUTTING THE CAR INTO PARK IT MAKES A LOUD CLUNKING NOISE THEN PROCEEDS TO JERK THE ENTIRE VEHICLE. AFTER LETTING THE CAR SIT FOR AN HOUR I TRIED TO TURN IT ONE ONCE AGAIN AND TEST DRIVING A FEW FEET FORWARD, IT ONLY MOVED AT A SLOW PACE WHEN GAS PEDAL APPLIED. *TR

Mileage: 100,000

WHEN TRAVELING, ALL OF A SUDDEN THE SPEEDOMETER GOES TO 0, THE MAINTENANCE WRENCH LIGHTS UP AND WE GET AN LED MESSAGE THAT I CANT RECALL EXACTLY AT THE MOMENT. THE VEHICLE CAN CONTINUE UNTIL YOU STOP. THEN IT CANNOT PROCEED FORWARD. ONCE YOU STOP AND SHIFT TO PARK, THEN TRY TO PROCEED AGAIN, THERE IS A LOUD CLUNKING NOISE FROM THE TRANSMISSION, AND THE VEHICLE CANT MOVE FORWARD. I BELIEVE IT IS GETTING STUCK IN 5TH OR OVERDRIVE. WHEN A CODE READER IS ATTACHED BY A MECHANIC, THE CODE IT CALLS OUT IS FOR THE OUTPUT SPEED SENSOR (IN THE TRANSMISSION). ONCE THE CODE IS CLEARED THE VEHICLE CAN PERFORM NORMALLY. WE HAD THE OSS REPLACED BY A REPUTABLE TRANSMISSION SHOP, AND IT WAS FINE FOR A MONTH OR SO. NOW AGAIN WE HAVE SEEN THE PROBLEM TWICE SINCE REPLACING THE OSS. THERE SEEM TO BE MANY COMPLAINTS ON THE INTERNET REGARDING THIS EXACT PROBLEM. HERE IS AN EXAMPLE: HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=PX3SC2YCMEO. *TR

I TOOK IT IN FOR SERVICE AT THE FORD DEALER TWICE AND WAS TOLD IT WAS NOTHING AND THAT IT MIGHT BE THE BATTERY. TODAY IS THE FINAL STRAW. I AM WRITING THIS AT THE FORD DEALER.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN VAN BORN ROAD (HEAVY TRAFFIC) THE SPEEDOMETER STOPPED AND WENT TO 0 MPH, THE ODOMETER READ DASHES, THE WRENCH ILLUMINATED IN THE CORNER, AND THE AIRBAG WARNING SIGN APPEARED. THE RPM'S IN MY VEHICLE BEGAN TO CLIMB HIGHER AS WELL AND THE CAR SPEEDOMETER DID NOT INDICATE ANY MPH AND BEGAN TO DECREASE, AFTER SLOWING DOWN AT TA RED LIGHT I NOTICED MY CAR WOULD BARELY MOVE AND IT SLOWLY CREPT UNTIL I GOT HOME 1/2 MILE FROM WHEN I NOTICED THE PROBLEM START. AS SOON AS I PARKED OTHER WARNING LIGHTS BEGAN FLASHING SUCH AS THE TIRE PRESSURE SIGN. I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND THEN BACK ON AND I EXPERIENCED A HARD START, WHICH WAS LOUD, AND WHEN I WENT TO CHANGE GEARS THE CAR JERKED VIOLENTLY AS IF THE MOTOR WAS JUMPING. WHEN PLACING IN REVERSE GEAR THE JERK WAS EVEN MORE VIOLENT, LOUD NOISE AS IF THE ENGINE WAS DROPPING OUT OR I WAS BEING REAR ENDED. I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON TO SEE IF THE WARNING SIGNALS WERE STILL ILLUMINATED AND THEY RESET. WHEN TRYING TO SEE IF THE CAR WOULD MOVE I HAD TO PUSH THE GAS PEDAL ALMOST ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR BEFORE THE CAR WOULD EVEN MOVE A LITTLE BIT AND AGAIN THE RPM'S REVVED REALLY HIGH. I ENDED UP CALLING A TOW TRUCK THIS MORNING 8/20/14 AND THEY STATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION IS TRYING TO SKIP FIRST GEAR AND GO DIRECTLY TO SECOND GEAR; MY CAR IS CURRENTLY IN THE SHOP. PRIOR TO THIS INCIDENT I EXPERIENCED OCCASIONAL JERKING WHILE DRIVING AND THE CAR WAS SWITCHING GEARS. IT WAS VERY SCARY BEING A FEMALE AND NOT KNOWING MUCH ABOUT MECHANICS. ONLY 49,000 MILES. *TR

I BOUGHT MY 2008 BRAND NEW. AT 39,000MI I TOOK TO DEALERSHIP AFTER NOTICING THE TRANSMISSION LAGGING, SLIPPING, LOUD VERY HARD SHIFTS. ALSO WAS PARKING AT THE GROCERY STORE WHEN I PULLED INTO SPOT, WITH FOOT ON THE BREAK CAR LURCHED AND ENGINE REVVED. IF IT HADN'T HAD MY FOOT ON BREAK IT COULD HAVE HIT SOMEONE. OF COURSE DEALERSHIP COULDN'T REPLICATE, WAS TOLD TO BRING BACK WHEN IT DIDN'T IT MORE REGULARLY. AT 59,000 I TOOK IT BACK IN AFTER SEVER TIMES OF LOUD/HARD SHIFT AND JERKING LIKE I HAD BEEN REAR ENDED BY SOMETHING. AS WELL AS BEING ON A ROAD TRIP WHERE IT FELT LIKE IT SLIPPED OUT OF GEAR AND THE WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON. I PULLED TO SIDE OF ROAD AND CALLED FORD. THEY SAID TO TURN CAR OFF AND BACK ON. WRENCH LIGHT WENT OFF AND CAR SEEMED FINE. THEN WHILE ON INTERSTATE IT REVVED REALLY HIGH AGAIN BUT CAR FELT LIKE IT WAS IN NEUTRAL, IT WOULDN'T ACCELERATE WHEN I PUSHED THE GAS. PULLED OFF AGAIN AND CUT OFF AND BACK ON AND IT SEEMED FINE. DEALERSHIP WAS ABLE TO REPLICATE, BUT RESULTS INCONCLUSIVE. WAS TOLD TO BRING BACK IF HAPPENED AGAIN. AT 83,000 IT IS BACK IN, IT HAS BEEN LOUDLY SHIFTING WITH THE BIG JERK LIKE BEFORE THIS TIME MORE FREQUENTLY AND ALSO WAS COMING OFF EXIT RAMP OF INTERSTATE AND AT STOP LIGHT, CAR WAS IN DRIVE,BUT WOULDN'T GO, FELT LIKE IT WAS SITTING IN NEUTRAL AGAIN. DEALERSHIP HAS HAD IT FOR 3 DAYS AND FOUND METAL SHAVINGS IN TRANSMISSION. WILL NOT CONFIRM THIS IS COVERED BY WARRANTY EVEN THOUGH IT IS AN EXISTING ISSUE. CAN NOT PROMISE FOR WILL HONOR REPAIR. WANTS TO RIP OUT MY TRANSMISSION TO SEE WHAT PROBLEM IS, BUT WONT GIVE ME ANY KIND OF ESTIMATE AS TO COST. ONLY SAID FORD WOULD "ASSIST" BUT COULDN'T TELL ME HOW MUCH. I HAVE READ HUNDREDS OF SIMILAR ISSUES ONLINE OF THE EXACT SAME ISSUES. SEEMS LIKE FORD WOULD HAVE RECALLED THIS ALREADY. THIS IS NOT ONLY AN ISSUE OF A FAULTY TRANSMISSION, BUT ALSO A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE AS WELL. *TR

2008 FORD EDGE: I WAS STOPPED AT AN INTERSECTION PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC AFTER DRIVING NORMALLY FOR ABOUT 15 MINUTES. WHEN I HIT THE ACCELERATOR THEIR WAS NO POWER AND THE CAR INCHED FORWARD AT LOW SPEED AND THE RPMS INCREASED DRAMATICALLY. I WAS ABLE TO HIT THE BRAKE BEFORE AN ONCOMING VEHICLE ALMOST HIT MY DRIVERS SIDE AS I WAS ATTEMPTING TO TAKE A LEFT. ONCE I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER IN A SAFE LOCATION, I PUT IT IN PARK AND TRIED TO RE-ENGAGE THE TRANSMISSION IN DRIVE. THE VEHICLE WAS STILL UNRESPONSIVE, NO POWER TO ACCELERATE. I THEN SHUT OFF THE CAR AND RESTARTED AND THE CAR BEHAVED NORMALLY AFTER THE RESTART. I HAVE HAD THIS CAR FOR 3 YEARS WITH NO SIMILAR ISSUES. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN BECAUSE THERE IS NO WARNING SIGN AND THE CAR DOES NOT ACCELERATE AS EXPECTED. I WAS LUCKY THAT I WAS ABLE TO STOP IN TIME WITHOUT GETTING HIT BY THE ONCOMING TRAFFIC. *TR

AFTER SLOWING DOWN AT THE END OF THE EXIT I NOTICED MY CAR WOULD BARELY MOVE AND IT SLOWLY CREPT UNTIL I WAS AT A SAFE SPOT TO PARK. AS SOON AS I PARKED OTHER WARNING LIGHTS BEGAN FLASHING SUCH AS THE TIRE PRESSURE SIGN AND ANOTHER THAT I CAN NOT REMEMBER. I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND THEN BACK ON AND I EXPERIENCED A HARD START, WHICH WAS LOUD, AND WHEN I WENT TO CHANGE GEARS THE CAR JERKED VIOLENTLY AS IF THE MOTOR WAS JUMPING. WHEN PLACING IN REVERSE GEAR THE JERK WAS EVEN MORE VIOLENT AS IF I WAS BEING REAR ENDED. I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON MULTIPLE TIMES AND CHANGED THE GEARS AND EACH TIME IT DID THE SAME THING. WHEN TRYING TO SEE IF THE CAR WOULD MOVE I HAD TO PUSH THE GAS PEDAL ALMOST ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR BEFORE THE CAR WOULD EVEN MOVE A LITTLE BIT AND AGAIN THE RPM'S REVVED REALLY HIGH.

WHEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE THE POWER TRAIN PROBLEM INDICATOR LIGHT AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COME ON AND THE CAR LOSES ALL POWER. CAR WILL NOT EXCEED 900 RPM AND WILL BARELY MOVE. I HAD THE TROUBLE CODES READ AND IT IS INDICATING THAT THE THROTTLE IS SHOWING STUCK CLOSED AND OPEN. I BELIEVE THAT THIS IS THE SAME ISSUE AS WITH SEVERAL OTHER FORD MODELS AND SHOULD HAVE BEEN PART OF THE EXTENDED WARRANTY THAT COVERED THE THROTTLE BODIES FROM SEVERAL OTHER MODELS. THIS ISSUE POSES A SERIOUS SAFETY RISK DO TO THE FACT THAT IT HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES AND AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, IF THIS WERE TO HAPPEN AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS IN HEAVY TRAFFIC IT COULD BE HORRIBLE. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS PROBLEM EXTENSIVELY ONLINE AND FOUND THAT IT IS A FAIRLY COMMON ISSUE WITH THE EDGE. *TR

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGH WAY, MY CAR OUT OF KNOW WHERE SEEM TO HAVE LOST POWER. THE ONLY THING THAT WAS MOVING WAS THE RPM, BUT THE CAR WAS SLOWING DOWN. FINALLY AFTER PULLING TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY, AND TURNING THE CAR OFF, IT RESET SOME HOW AND AT LEAST GOT ME TO WORK.

THE CAR SEEMS TO RUN FINE IN TOWN. IF IT IS DRIVEN ABOUT 20 MILES OR SO ON THE HIGHWAY, IT DEVELOPS THE FOLLOWING DRIVE TRAIN PROBLEM. WHEN THE VEHICLE SLOWS OR COMES TO A STOP AND THE DRIVER THEN ACCELERATES, SUCH AS WHEN DRIVING IN STOP-AND-GO TRAFFIC ON THE FREEWAY OR LEAVING A STOP LIGHT, IT SEEMS LIKE THE TRANSMISSION AND ENGINE QUIT TALKING TO EACH OTHER AND THEY COME UNCOUPLED DURING SHIFTING. SINCE THE GAS PEDAL IS DEPRESSED FOR ACCELERATING, DURING THE SHIFT, THE ENGINE RPM REVS UP TO PERHAPS 3000 AND THEN THE TRANSMISSION ABRUPTLY SHIFTS RESULTING IN A HEAVY SHOCK TO THE DRIVE LINE. IT DOES THIS BETWEEN EACH GEAR DURING ACCELERATION UPSHIFTING. IF THE VEHICLE IS STOPPED AND THE TRANSMISSION IS SHIFTED INTO REVERSE, THERE IS A DELAY AND THEN IT SHIFTS INTO REVERSE RESULTING IN A SIMILAR HEAVY SHOCK. I HAD SEVERAL OCCURRENCES WHERE I CAME OFF THE FREEWAY AND STOPPED AT THE LIGHT AND UPON ATTEMPTING TO GET GOING AGAIN, THE ENGINE WAS RUNNING AND WOULD REV UP BUT THE TRANSMISSION WAS NOT ENGAGED. I SHIFTED INTO PARK AND BACK INTO DRIVE AND THE VEHICLE FINALLY GOT GOING AGAIN WITH THE SAME SYMPTOMS NOTED ABOVE. IT SEEMS TO REACT THE SAME REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE OD IS ENGAGED OR DISENGAGED. WE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO ONE OF THE LOCAL FORD STORES SEVERAL WEEKS AGO AND THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT RECREATE THE SYMPTOMS. I TOOK IT TO A DIFFERENT SERVICE DEPARTMENT PERHAPS A MONTH LATER AND THEY COULD NOT FIND A REAL PROBLEM BUT SAID ALL THE CODES WERE FINE. THEY DELETED THE ADAPTIVE TRANSMISSION FILES AND UPLOADED NEW FILES AND THE PROBLEM WAS FIXED EVEN THOUGH THEY WERE NOT SURE WHAT THEY DID TO FIX IT. A LENGTHY DRIVE A DAY LATER WENT WELL, NO PROBLEMS. BUT ON THE WAY INTO WORK IN ON APRIL 3RD THE SAME PROBLEMS ARE BACK. IT'S BACK IN THE SHOP AGAIN APRIL 7TH. NOT SURE WHAT'S NEXT.

MY WIFE AND I WERE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY, WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL ON. AT RANDOM THE CARE KICKED OUT ON CRUISE AND THE SPEEDOMETER WAS NOT WORKING, WE ALSO HAD TIRE PRESSURE WARNING, ENGINE SERVICE WARNING, AIR BAG WARNING AND NO ODOMETER. WE MADE IT TO THE FREEWAY EXIST, HOWEVER WHEN WE WENT TO ACCELERATE THE CAR BARELY MOVED. THE ENGINE WOULD REV AT HIGH RPM'S BUT WOULD JUST CRAWL. WE MADE IT TO OUR HOUSE (BARELY) AND PARKED THE CAR. THE SHIFT INTO PARK WAS VERY VIOLENT AND MADE THE CARE JUMP. WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE I WOULD SHIFT FROM P TO N, THEN N TO R, THEN R TO D AND SAME ORDER BACK TO PARK. EACH CHANGE WAS VERY VIOLENT. I TURNED THE ENGINE OFF, LET IT SIT FOR ABOUT 1 MINUTE, TURNED THE CAR BACK ON AND THE WARNING LIGHTS WERE GONE AND THE ODOMETER WAS BACK TO NORMAL. HOWEVER, WHEN I WENT TO DRIVE AGAIN THE SHIFT WAS STILL VIOLENT, I HAD NOT POWER (HIGH REV AND BARELY MOVED) AND NO SPEEDOMETER. THE CAR IS CURRENTLY IN MY DRIVEWAY WITH THAT BEING THE CURRENT STATE. I HAVE DONE SOME RESEARCH ONLINE AND THIS APPEAR TO BE A VERY COMMON ISSUE FOR THESE VEHICLES. *TR

AFTER STARTING CAR, VEHICLE MADE LOUD CLUNK SOUND WHEN PUT IN REVERSE. CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE WITHOUT PRESSING ACCELERATOR MORE THAN USUAL AND ENGINE REVVED HIGH. DASH BOARD WENT BLANK EXCEPT FOR WRENCH SYMBOL, AIRBAG SYMBOL AND ODOMETER HAD ALL DASHES. TURNED CAR OFF, WAITED A FEW MINUTES, TURNED CAR BACK ON AND EVERYTHING WAS BACK TO NORMAL, CAR DROVE FINE. THIS HAS HAPPENED ABOUT 5 TIMES WITHIN THE PAST 3 YEARS, SEVERAL MONTHS APART. HAVE ALSO HAD TO REPLACE REAR TAIL LIGHTS MULTIPLE TIMES, SOMETIMES WITHIN 2 DAYS OF REPLACEMENT. HAVE TAKEN CAR TO FORD SERVICE, BUT THEY CAN'T PINPOINT PROBLEM. NOW CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY. SEEMS LIKE IT COULD BE ELECTRICAL OR SENSORS. HAVE READ AND SEEN VIDEOS OF MANY OTHERS WITH THIS SAME PROBLEM WITH THIS YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL. WISH FORD WOULD HELP OWNERS LIKE OURSELVES WITH A RECALL TO FIX THIS, AS OUR LOYALTY HAS GONE AWAY WITH FRUSTRATION. HAVE JUST TODAY, 03/27/14 HAD MY CAR TOWED TO REPAIR SHOP TO CHECK TRANSMISSION. THE DASHBOARD HAS RETURNED TO NORMAL, BUT LOUD CLUNK WHEN SHIFTING AND WILL NOT ACCELERATE WITHOUT FLOORING IT. *TR

ON THE WAY HOME FROM A VACATION, WE PULLED INTO A FAST FOOD RESTAURANT TO GET A QUICK BITE TO EAT. UPON LEAVING THE RESTAURANT, WE STARTED THE VEHICLE AND EVERYTHING SEEMED NORMAL. ABOUT THREE MINUTES INTO OUR DRIVE HOME, THE DASH LIGHTS CAME ON (SPECIFICALLY THE WRENCH AND AIR BAG LIGHTS) AND THE VEHICLE LOST ALL THROTTLE POWER. WE QUICKLY PULLED OVER AND TURNED OFF THE CAR TO SEE IF WE COULD DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM OURSELVES. AFTER BEING UNSUCCESSFUL AT IDENTIFYING THE PROBLEM, WE STARTED THE CAR AGAIN AND ATTEMPTED TO PUT THE CAR IN DRIVE. THE TRANSMISSION PRODUCED A LOUD "CLUNKING" SOUND. EACH TIME YOU TRIED TO CHANGE GEARS (I.E. REVERSE TO DRIVE), THERE WOULD BE AN EXTREMELY HARSH ENGAGEMENT AND THE GEAR CHANGE WOULD BE ROUGH, EACH TIME PRODUCING A LOUD "CLUNK". I BROUGHT THE CAR TO A LOCAL MECHANIC WHO ADVISED THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH FORD EDGE'S, IN FACT; THERE IS A TSB BULLETIN (07-21-11) REGARDING THE ISSUE. THIS PROBLEM STEMS FROM A SHORT IN THE OUTPUT SHAFT SPEED (OSS) SENSOR AND THE TURBINE SHAFT SPEED (TSS) SENSORS. AS I READ THE TSB BULLETIN, THIS ISSUE SHOULD BE COVERED BY THE MANUFACTURES EMISSIONS WARRANTY, THE DEALERSHIP DISAGREES. THIS ISSUE CAN BE FOUND IN ABUNDANCE WITH THE 2008 FORD EDGE VEHICLE. IN A BRIEF SEARCH ONLINE, I FOUND A LARGE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS SAME PROBLEM FROM OWNER EDGE OWNERS. MY COMPLAINT IS THAT I BELIEVE THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL ISSUE AND IT SHOULD HAPPEN IMMEDIATELY. IN THIS INSTANCE, I WASN'T IN HARM'S WAY, BUT IN PREVIOUS INSTANCES I HAVE BEEN IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION AND LOST THE ABILITY TO ACCELERATE, WHICH IS UNDOUBTEDLY A TERRIFYING EXPERIENCE. I AM REQUESTING YOUR ASSISTANCE IN MOVING FORWARD WITH THIS COMPLAINT AS I'M NOT SURE WHERE ELSE TO TURN. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. *TR

FOR OVER A YEAR WHEN MY CAR HAD LESS THAN 100K AND STILL UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY MY TRANSMISSION STARTED SLIPPING AND SLAMMING INTO GEAR ON TAKEOFF. I TOOK TO FORD DEALER SHIP AND THEY RAN DISNOSTICS AND FOUND NOTHING WRONG BUT REPROGRAMED THE COMPUTER. THAT DID NOT FIX THE ISSUE. THE CAR CONTINUES TO TODAYS TO SLIP AND SLAM ON TAKE OFF, THE ODOMETER BOUNCES AND THE ENGINE START CUTTING OUT/LOOSING POWER. AGAIN THE DEALER SAID IF THE COMPUTER IS NOT SETTING CODES THEY CANNOT FIX. NOW AT 110K OUT OF WARRANTY THE PROBLEM CONTINUES JUST GETTING WORSE. I BELIEVE BY READING THE BLOGS THAT THIS IS A LARGE ISSUE THAT FORD KNOWS ABOUT BUT REFUSES TO ADMIT BAD TRANSMISSION DESIGN AND WILL NOT RECALL. I THINK THEY SHOULD EITHER FIX THE ISSUE AT THEIR COST OR BUY BACK THE VEHCILE. I AM SURE THE MAIN ISSUE IS THE COST TO FORD TO FIX THE ISSUE AND THEY KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. THEY ARE MORE WORRIED THEIR STOCK HOLDERS THAT THEIR CUSTOMERS. I GUESS THEY WILL NEED A BAILOUT IF THEY KEEP THIS TREND UP. I USED TO HOLD FORD AS A QUALITY COMPANY, WITH QUALITY PRODUCTS, BUT NO LONGER. THE FOREIGN CAR COMPANIES ARE PRODUCING A BETTER QUALITY PRODUCT. I JUST WANT MY CAR FIXED OR REPLACED.

EDGE HAD STARTED TO DRIVE SLUGGISH, COULD NOT GET UP TO SPEED OR GET CAR INTO NEXT GEAR. DRIVING HOME FROM VACATION, CAR WAS VERY SLUGGISH GOING UP HILLS AND RPM NEEDLE WOULD REV HIGH BEFORE ABLE TO SHIFT TO NEXT GEAR. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON WITH CODE OF P061. FOUND FORD DEALER LOCALLY WHO REPLACED FILTER. CAR DROVE BETTER FOR 1/2 DAY, THEN BACK TO SLUGGISH AND NOT ABLE TO CHANGE GEARS. TOOK BACK TO MY FORD DEALER, REPLACED MAF SENSOR AND THROTTLE BODY ASSEMBLY FOR $645. 10 MONTHS LATER CITY DRIVING IN HEAVY TRAFFIC, CAR IS STARTING TO SLIP INTO SLUGGISH MODE AND HAVING TROUBLE SHIFTING TO NEXT GEAR. RPM NEEDLE REVS HIGH BEFORE SHIFTING GEAR. WILL WATCH CLOSELY BEFORE TAKING BACK TO DEALER AGAIN. NOTICE HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS FOR SAME PROBLEM WITH THE FORD EDGE. *TR

ON THE FREEWAY IT FELT LIKE THE CAR HIT A HARD BUMP EXITING THE FREEWAY THERE WAS NO LONGER ANY ACCELERATION. THE ENGINE WOULD REV WAY UP BUT THERE WAS VERY LITTLE FORWARD MOVEMENT. IT SEEMED AS IF THE TRANSMISSION WAS NOT SHIFTING INTO THE LOWER GEARS. I WAS VERY LUCKY TO GET THROUGH THE QUICKLY APPROACHING TRAFFIC, WITHOUT GETTING HIT OR SOMEONE ELSE GETTING HIT AS THE CARS WEAVED AROUND ME. AT A STOP, I SHIFTED INTO LOW WITH NO CHANGE. I TURNED THE OVER DRIVE ON AND OFF WITH NO CHANGE. I SHIFTED INTO REVERSE AND THERE WAS QUITE A BIG BANG AND THE WHOLE CAR SHOOK (THIS WAS SIMILAR TO WHAT I FELT ON THE FREEWAY WHEN I THOUGHT I HIT A BUMP). SHIFTING BACK INTO DRIVE, IT WAS THE SAME, LOTS OF RPM AND VERY LITTLE MOVEMENT FORWARD, AS IF I WAS STARTING IN FOURTH GEAR. TURNING OFF THE ENGINE I LOOKED FOR ANY SIGNS OF FLUID LEAKING OR OTHER INDICATIONS OF DAMAGE. NOTHING WAS EVIDENT. AFTER STARTING THE CAR AND SHIFTING IT INTO DRIVE, IT WORKED JUST FINE. AN INTERNET SEARCH REVEALED THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AS THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF POSTINGS AND EVEN A FEW YOU-TUBE VIDEOS OF THE ACTUAL PROBLEM I EXPERIENCED. FORD EVEN HAS A SERVICE BULLETIN 103100 DATED 4/24/13. POSTINGS REPORT TRANSMISSION REBUILDS (AT OVER $4,000.00) AND THE PROBLEM STILL RECURRED. SUCCESSFUL REPAIRS SEEM TO CENTER AROUND A FIRMWARE, COMPUTER UPGRADE AND REPLACEMENT OF TURBINE SENSORS AND SOLENOIDS. WITH ONLY 70,000 MILES ON THIS CAR I SHOULD NOT BE HAVING TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS. THE SERVICE MANAGER AT THE FORD DEALERSHIP KNEW ALL ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND SAID IT WOULD TAKE THREE DAYS TO REPAIR AT JUST UNDER $1,000.00. HE ALSO SAID THAT THEY STOCK THE PARTS FOR THIS REPAIR (A STRANGE COMMENT). ON THE INTERNET I FOUND THAT MOST REPAIRS TOOK WEEKS BECAUSE NONE OF THE DEALERS STOCKED THE PARTS. NOW IT SEEMS THAT THIS PROBLEM IS SO PREVALENT THAT MANY IF NOT ALL THE DEALERS ARE NOW STOCKING THESE PARTS. *TR

THE CAR WOULD ACT LIKE IT WAS IN 2ND OR 3RD GEAR WHEN YOU TRIED TO GO FROM A STOP. YOU WOULD HAVE TO GIVE IT A LOT OF GAS TO MOVE AND THERE WERE ALSO TIMES IN THE PAST WHERE IT WOULD GO BUT WOULD NOT SHIFT INTO 2ND GEAR FOR A LONGER THAN NORMAL TIME. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND THEN IT STARTED WORKING. NO WARNING LIGHTS EVER CAME ON UNTIL ON OCT 25TH WHEN I WAS TRYING TO GO FROM A STOP AND THE CAR WAS HARDLY MOVING. WARNING LIGHTS STARTED COMING ON SO I WENT STRAIGHT TO THE DEALER AND KEPT IT RUNNING SO IT WOULD NOT CLEAR ANY CODES. THEY ENDED UP REPLACING THE OSS AND TSS SENSORS IN THE TRANSMISSION. *JS

2008 FORD EDGE HAS HARD SHIFTS (ENGINE RACES LIKE IT'S IN NEUTRAL AND THEN SLAMS INTO GEAR WITH A LOUD BANG) IN TWO SCENARIOS - FROM 1ST TO 2ND, WHILE COASTING IN STOP-AND-GO TRAFFIC, AND WHEN QUICKLY ACCELERATING, AS IN A PASSING MANEUVER, FROM AROUND 35 MPH.

WE WERE DRIVING THE VEHICLE AND CAME TO A STOP SIGN. ALL OF THE SUDDEN, WHEN WE HIT THE GAS PEDAL, THE VEHICLE BARELY MOVED AND SOUNDED LIKE IT WAS IN NEUTRAL. THIS CONTINUED UNTIL WE FOUND A PLACE TO PULL OVER. WE PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK, AND IT SHIFTED REALLY HARD. IT FELT LIKE SOMEBODY HIT US FROM BEHIND. IT ALSO SHIFTED OUT OF PARK VERY HARD. WE TURNED THE CAR OFF AND LET IT SIT FOR A WHILE. WE STARTED THE CAR AND IT WORKED NORMAL AND WE DROVE IT RIGHT TO THE DEALERSHIP. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THEY COULDN'T DO ANYTHING TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE BECAUSE THEY COULD NOT REPLICATE THE ISSUE. OUR CONCERN IS THAT THE VEHICLE IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE BECAUSE IT CAN STOP ACCELERATING AT ANY POINT. THE FORD TECHNICIAN COULD NOT ASSURE US THAT THE VEHICLE WAS SAFE TO DRIVE. WE CONTACTED FORD AND THEY PASSED THE BUCK BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP. I UNDERSTAND THAT THE DEALERSHIP CANNOT DO ANYTHING, BUT AFTER READING NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME EXACT ISSUE ON FORUMS AND THE NHTSA SITE, I FEEL THAT FORD SHOULD OFFER SOME DIRECTION ON HOW TO FIX THIS ISSUE TO THEIR DEALERSHIPS SINCE IT SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE 2008 FORD EDGE. *TR

THE DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSED "...REPLACE PTU ASSY FLUID, HAD BLOWN OUT VENT...". THE ENTIRE POWERTRAIN (583984) WAS REPLACED. THIS WAS THE 2ND INCIDENT IN 2 MONTHS. PRIOR TO THIS EVENT I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AFTER EXPERIENCING "SLIPPING" TRANSMISSION. WHILE COMING TO A STOP, THE TRANSMISSION WENT INTO NEUTRAL.

DURING THE MONTH OF JULY 2013, OUR 2008 FORD EDGE WOULD MAKE A GRINDING NOISE AT ABOUT 40 MPH. THE CAR HAD BEEN SERVICED BY A FORD DEALERSHIP IN JUNE 2013. PRIOR TO THE SERVICE, MY WIFE HAD BEEN COMPLAINING ABOUT THE NOISE SO I DECIDED TO REPLACE THE REAR BRAKES PADS. THE BRAKE PADS WERE ONLY MAYBE 20 % WORN BUT I WENT AHEAD AND REPLACED THEM ANYWAY. MY WIFE HAD MADE SIMILAR COMPLAINTS IN THE PAST WHICH PROMPTED ME TO CHECK AND REPLACE THE FRONT BRAKES A FEW YEARS AGO. IN JULY 2013 THE NOISE PERSISTED SO WE TOOK THE CAR TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP TO CHECK THE PROBLEM. THE FORD MECHANIC DETERMINED THAT THE FRONT WHEEL BEARINGS WERE FAILING. APPARENTLY, THERE IS A FLAW IN DESIGN OR WORKMANSHIP THAT IS ALLOWING WATER TO ENTER THE BEARING HOUSING AND TO CORRODE THE BEARING INNER AND OUTER RACE. SO, THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN THE POTENTIAL FOR THE BEARINGS TO OVER HEAT AND LOCKUP THE WHEELS. THE FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THE DEALERSHIP REFUSED TO EXTEND THE WARRANTY GIVEN THE TIME REQUIRED FOR THE BEARINGS TO CORRODE UNDER THESE CONDITIONS. I REQUESTED THE OLD PARTS AFTER THE REPAIR AND THERE IS OBVIOUS CORROSION ON THE BALL BEARINGS, THE BEARING RACE, AND IN THE GREASE. THERE ARE OTHER FORD CUSTOMERS EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM. THE NOISE GETS PROGRESSIVELY WORSE OVER TIME THAT EVENTUALLY YOU CAN HEAR IT OVER THE RADIO AND CONVERSATIONS IN THE CAR. *TR

THE CAR WILL EVENTUALLY START AFTER A COUPLE OF MINUTES AND YOU START DRIVING AND IT HAPPENS AGAIN. HAD CAR TOWED TO AUTO REPAIR PLACE WHERE DIAGNOSTICS DIDN'T SHOW ANYTHING. THE MECHANIC DID DRIVE THE CAR AND IT STALLED ON HIM. HE THOUGHT IT WAS THE "FUEL KILL SWITCH" BECAUSE IT RESET IT AND THE CAR STARTED. THE SWITCH WAS REPLACED AND THE CAR RAN FINE FOR 2 DAYS THEN WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY STARTED LOOSING SPEED AND WAS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE. THE RPM'S DECREASED THEN JUMPED UP LIKE THE CAR HAD RESTARTED. THIS HAPPENED TWICE THEN I LOST ALL POWER AND HAD TO COAST OVER TO THE SHOULDER. *TR

THIS INCIDENT HAS OCCURRED 3 TIMES IN THE LAST YEAR. AFTER SHOPPING FOR ABOUT 15 MINUTES, I START MY CAR AND IT IMMEDIATELY MAKE A HARSH CLUNKING SOUND WHEN MOVING INTO DRIVE GEAR. THEN I HAVE LITTLE TO NO ACCELERATION AND MY SPEEDOMETER, ETC DOES NOT WORK. THE WRENCH SYMBOL COMES ON. WHEN PUTTING THE CAR INTO PARK, IT MAKES A VIOLENT, HARSH SOUND. THE FIRST 2 INCIDENTS, I LET THE CAR SIT FOR OVER 24 HOURS. WHEN I START AFTER 24 HOURS THE CAR WORKS COMPLETELY FINE AND ALL THE SYMPTOMS GO AWAY. THE MOST RECENT INCIDENT I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO DEALERSHIP WITHIN 8 HOURS OF INCIDENT. THEY WERE ABLE TO DETERMINE IT WAS THE TURBINE AND SPEED SENSORS, WHICH I HAD REPLACED. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF THIS VEHICLE AND FEEL THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL ISSUE. *TR

IT SOUNDS TO ME TO BE THE COMPUTER CHIP I HAVE A WARRANTY ON IT STILL SO THERE SHOULD BE NO REASON FOR THEM NOT TO FIX IT BUT I WILL BET THAT THEY SAY THAT THE WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER THE POWER TRAIN BUT IT DOES SO IF YOU ARE HAVING THIS PROBLEM WITH YOUR 2008 ESCAPE DO NOT LET THE TELL YOU THAT IT IS NOT COVERED IF YOU HAVE A WARRANTY.THE COMPUTER CHIP THAT OPERATES YOUR POWER TRAIN IS PART OF THE POWER TRAIN' IF NOT FOR THAT THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE UNLESS IT WAS BEING TOWED IF YOU WORK FOR FORD AND SEE ALL OF THESE COMPLAINT'S ABOUT THE SAME THING GOING ON WITH THE 2008 ESCAPE'S WHAT IS IT GOING TO TAKE BEFORE FORD STEP'S UP SOMEONE TO GET KILLED. *TR

I AM UNABLE TO "SELECT AFFECTED PARTS" IN THIS FORM: PARTS - POWER TRAIN, TRANSMISSION, BATTERY. OVER THE PAST 6 MONTHS THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS INCIDENTS WHERE MY VEHICLE, UPON RETURNING TO SPEED OR ENTERING A ROADWAY/HIGHWAY, OR OTHERWISE ENTERING A ROADWAY, IT HAS MADE A NOISE, A SUDDEN JERK, SEEM TO HOLD SPEED (FAIL TO INCREASE SPEED) AND SEEMS TO FEEL LIKE IT IS FAILING TO CHANGED GEARS (APPEARS TO REV IN RPMS SLIGHTLY), THEN JERKS AGAIN, AND COMES BACK INTO ROUTINE SHIFTING. IT IS AN AUTOMATIC. THIS HAPPENS OFTEN. I HAVE HAD THE FLUID CHECK, FLUSHED, REPLACED, ASKED MY MECHANIC AND SHE CAN FIND NO ISSUES. IT SEEMS TO FEEL LIKE IT BOGS DOWN, BUT RPMS APPEAR TO INCREASE (ALMOST AS IF IT IS NOT IN GEAR/NEUTRAL). IT SEEMS TO BE HAPPENING MORE AND MORE FREQUENTLY. I HAVE ROUTINELY CHECKED MY CAR FOR RECALLS. AND I SHOULD NOTE HAVE HAD THE BALL BEARING GO BAD (AS RECALLED) AND REPLACED, INCLUDING THE ENTIRE ARM ON THE LEFT REAR. ADDITIONALLY, MY BATTERY HAS FAILED AND BEEN REPLACED (APPROXIMATELY 3 YEARS AGO) AND HAS SINCE REQUIRED REPLACEMENT AGAIN.

THE JERKING AND THE CAR NOT WANTING TO ACCELERATE HAS EVEN HAPPEN WHEN I HAVE BEEN DRIVING AROUND 20MPH- I HAVE REPLACED THE BATTERY THINKING MAYBE IT WAS THE BATTERY AND NOPE THAT DIDN'T WORK.

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

WE CALLED CORPORATE AND THEY DID NOTHING. THIS IS RIDICULOUS THAT I AM READING SO MANY OTHER PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE AND NOTHING IS GETTING DONE - NO RECALLS, NOTHING. THIS IS UNFAIR AS TO I HAVE MAINTAINED EVERYTHING ON THIS VEHICLE AND IT SHOULD NOT BE DOING THIS. THIS IS A FORD ISSUE AND THEY SHOULD BE TAKING CARE OF THIS.

WHAT STARTED OUT AS NOISE IN THE REAR TIRES, I THOUGHT, BECAME VERY LOUD AND DISTRACTING. TOOK IT IN TO A TIRE DEALER AND REPLACED 2 TIRES AND HAD THE SAME VERY LOUD WHINE, EVEN THE EMPLOYEE AT THE TIRE STORE WAS AMAZED AT HOW LOUD THE SOUND WAS. HE THOUGHT IT WAS BEARINGS AND I TOOK IT IN TO A FRIEND OF MINE WHO OWNS A REPAIR SHOP. I TOOK IT IN TO HIM BECAUSE I THOUGHT MY WARRANTY WAS NO LONGER VALID. HE REPAIRED THE VERY BADLY WORN BEARINGS AND TOLD ME HE WAS VERY SURPRISED AT HOW BAD THEY WERE KNOWING HOW AND WHERE MY DRIVING WAS DONE. MOSTLY ON THE FREEWAYS NO OFF ROAD DRIVING. I DECIDED TO LOOK ON LINE TO SEE IF THIS HAD BEEN A PROBLEM WITH OTHER 2008 FORD EDGES AND IT HAS BEEN REPORTED IN THE 2007'S ALSO. SEEMS LIKE A TREND TO ME. I WENT INTO MY FORD DEALER AND THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID IT HAS BEEN SEEN AS A PROBLEM AND SUGGESTED WE LOOK ON THE WARRANTY AND EXTENDED SERVICE PLAN AND SEE IF IT WAS COVERED. IT WAS, UNDER THE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY. I ASKED IF THEY WOULD REIMBURSE ME FOR THE REPAIRS? THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID THEY WOULD TALK TO THE FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE IN OUR REGION AND LET ME KNOW. SHE SAID NO! THEY WOULD NOT BECAUSE I DIDN'T BRING IT BACK TO THEM, REMEMBER I THOUGHT IT WAS OUT OF WARRANTY, THEN SHE SAID I WAS NOT THE ORIGINAL OWNER, I BOUGHT IT FROM THAT DEALER WITH 9388 MILES ON IT. ALL THE OTHER WARRANTIES THAT CAME WITH THE CAR WERE HONORED WHY NOT THIS ONE?? I WAS NOT THE ORIGINAL OWNER FOR THOSE WARRANTIES EITHER. I WOULD BE HAPPY JUST TO BE REIMBURSED ON THE BEARINGS, THE TOTAL WAS $550. I ALSO HAVE THE EXPENSE OF 2 NEW MICHELIN TIRES @ $500. HELP! *JS

MY FORD EDGE HAS JERKED AND JUMPED A FEW TIMES BUT WAS TOLD THAT NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH IT. WELL ON FRIDAY JUNE 01, 2012 I TRIED TO PUT CAR INTO GEAR AND IT DID NOT WANT TO GO, IT STARTED JERKING AND JERKING. THEN IT STARTED GOING, LIGHTS STARTED GOING OFF SUCH AS THE WRENCH, TIRE PRESSURE, AND THEN ODOMOTER DROPPED TO ZERO AND IT SAID DATA ODOMOTER ERROR. THE NEXT DAY I TURNED THE CAR ON AND WAS MAKING A LOUD WHINING NOISE. I TOOK THE CAR TO GULF COAST FORD IN ANGLETON, TEXAS ON SATURDAY JUNE 02, 2012 AND THEY CALLED MY HUSBAND WEDNESDAY JUNE 06TH AND TOLD HIM THAT THEY HAD TO TAKE THE TRANSMISSION APART. SAID THEY HAD THREE CARS LAST WEEK WITH THE SAME PROBLEM AND THEY CURRENTLY HAD ONE WITH SAME PROBLEM RIGHT NEXT TO MINE AND THEY SAID THEY ARE NOT SURE WHY THIS IS HAPPENING. FORD HAS A SERIOUS PROBLEM WITH THIS CAR AND IT NEEDS TO BE FIXED. MY CAR IS AT 93,500 MILES AND THE TRANSMISSION SHOULD NOT BE GOING OUT ALREADY. I WISH THEY WOULD RECALL THIS CAR COMPLETELY. I AM READY TO GET RID OF IT. *JS

WE BOUGHT OUR EDGE CERTIFIED THROUGH THE LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP AND WITHIN MONTHS THE TRANSMISSION WOULD VIOLENTLY SHIFT BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND. WHEN I TOOK IT IN THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. IT HAPPENS AT LEAST A FEW TIMES A MONTH AND I'M NERVOUS THAT THERE WILL BE COMPLETE FAILURE ONCE WE ARE OUTSIDE THE WARRANTY PERIOD. *TR

THE TRANSMISSION WILL OCCASIONALLY FAIL TO ENGAGE PROPERLY WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP. THE VEHICLE WILL INITIALLY MOVE FORWARD BUT THEN WILL FAIL TO ACCELERATE AS THE ENGINE CONTINUES TO INCREASE RPM. THIS HAS OCCURRED MULTIPLE TIMES. THE FIRST MAINTENANCE PERFORMED AT FORD WAS TO REBUILD THE TRANSMISSION. AFTER THE REPAIR THERE WERE NO PROBLEMS FOR ALMOST 4 MONTHS AND THEN THE TRANSMISSION PROBLEM RECURRED. THIS LAST TIME IT OCCURRED ALMOST CAUSED AN HORRIFIC ACCIDENT. AS THE AUTO ACCELERATED FROM A SIDE STREET TO MAKE A LEFT HAND TURN ONTO A FOUR LANE HIGHWAY, THE TRANSMISSION FAILED TO ACCELERATE AFTER ITS INITIAL ACCELERATION AND STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC. A T-BONE ACCIDENT WAS BARELY AVOIDED. THE SECOND FORD REPAIR WAS TO REPLACE A 'SENSOR' AND WAS JUST PICKED UP TODAY FROM FORD. *TR

TOOK CAR IN FOR REGULAR SCHEDULED OIL CHANGES AND REPAIRS.AT APPROXIMATELY 30,000 MILES THE CAMPHASERS ( FORD ADMITTED WRONG CAMPHASERS HAD BEEN INSTALLED) WERE REPLACED. COOLANT PROBLEM DISCOVERED AS WELL WHEN VEHICLE ENGINE WAS REMOVED. ODD ODOR COMING FROM HEATER, WHEN VEHICLE RETURNED AFTER CAMPHASER AND COOLANT ISSUE DID NOT RESOLVE SITUATION, AND VEHICLE RETURNED TO GALPIN FORD SERVICE, WAS TOLD THAT AXLE AND BEARING WERE BROKEN AND THAT THE STEERING WHEEL WAS NOT IN PROPER POSITION. I AM DEEPLY CONCERNED FOR OTHER FORD EDGE OWNERS AS WELL AS MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC WHO MAY BE AFFECTED BY VEHICLE THAT DOES NOT PROPERLY ENGAGE AND APPEARS TO STALL BEFORE MOVING FORWARD....

THIS PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED SINCE FIRST FEW MONTHS OF OWNING IT. AT TIMES WHILE DRIVING AT ALL SPEEDS THE CAR'S POWER GOES AWAY IN THE SENSE YOU MIGHT BE DRIVING 68 THEN THE CAR STARTS TO SLOW DOWN, THEN SLAM, THERE IS A LOUD MECHANICAL SLAM, AND THE CAR FEELS LIKE YOU RAN IT TO SOMETHING METAL OR SOLID. IT LITERALLY SHAKES THE WHOLE CAR SCARES THE !@#$ OUT OF YOU. IT?S USUALLY ON THE EXPRESS WAY AND MORE WHEN IT?S COLD. IT SEEMS WHEN I?M BARELY INCREASING THE GAS, THEN LETTING OFF A BIT, THEN BACK ON THE GAS AGAIN. THE LOCAL FORD DEALER FOUND A BULLETIN FROM FORD STATING THAT REPLACING THE TRANSMISSION DOESN'T FIX THIS PROBLEM TO WAIT FOR FURTHER INVESTIGATION. WE HAVE BEEN WAITING SINCE 2008. THE CAR RUNS GREAT OTHER THEN THIS PROBLEM. THIS MIGHT NOT HAPPEN FOR WEEKS THEN IT WILL HAPPEN AS MANY OF 3 TIMES IN A 5 MILE DRIVE. I WENT ON A 2 HOUR TRIP THIS WEEK. IT HAPPENED TWICE ON THE WAY UP AND ONCE ON THE WAY BACK. AS SOON AS WE TAKE IT TO THE DEALER IT DOESN'T HAPPEN. I'VE ASKED THEM TO KEEP THE CAR FOR A WEEK AND DRIVE IT. THAT HASN'T HAPPENED. THEY KEEP THROWING THEIR HANDS IN THE AIR. I WISH IT WOULD JUST LOCK UP SO THEY CAN FIND SOMETHING. I HAVE SEEN OTHERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEMS BUT YET FORD HASN'T FIXED IT. *TR

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE AND UPON ACCELERATION FROM A COMPLETE STOP, THE VEHICLE RANDOMLY WOULD GO INTO A "NEUTRAL-LIKE" STATE. RPMS WOULD INCREASE DRAMATICALLY, BUT THE CAR WOULD CRAWL BETWEEN 3-5MPH. THE MESSAGE, "OD READ ERROR" WOULD DISPLAY ON THE DASHBOARD, POWER STEERING WOULD GO OUT AND BRAKES WOULD NOT RESPOND WELL (IT WAS AS IF THE CAR HAD TURNED OFF). WHEN SHIFTING FROM DRIVE TO PARK OR REVERSE, THE VEHICLE WOULD JERK FORWARD VIOLENTLY, AS IF REAR-ENDED. ONCE THE CAR WAS TURNED OFF AND STARTED AGAIN, THE PROBLEM WOULD GO AWAY. WE BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP MULTIPLE TIMES AND THE DEALERSHIP EVEN DETERMINED THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THIS WAS ONLY AT 37,600 MILES. THE DEALER SAID IT WAS A TRANSMISSION ISSUE, BUT IT APPEARS TO BE AN ON-BOARD COMPUTER ISSUE AS WELL. AFTER TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED, 5 WEEKS LATER HAD ISSUE WITH SHIFTING INTO FIRST GEAR. VEHICLE SHIFTED VERY HARD INTO FIRST GEAR. CAR IS BACK DOWN AT THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN. WROTE A LETTER TO FORD EXPRESSING MY CONCERN AND REQUESTED THE CAR BE REPURCHASED, THEY DENIED MY REQUEST. *TR

PURCHASED FORD EDGE NEW 2008. HAD PROBLEMS SINCE BEGINNING. DRIVING LOW SPEED IT SLIPPED INTO L, TWICE. BROUGHT CAR IN SEVERAL TIMES COMPLAINING SPITTING AND SPUTTERING, BUCKING LIKE CHOKING. (I DO NOT HAVE EXACT DATE OF COMPLAINT TODAY BUT ENTERED APPROXIMATE- IN PROCESS OF OBTAINING HISTORY ). BROUGHT CAR INTO FORD DEALER IN ALBANY WHERE I WAS TOLD BAD GAS AND ONE TIME A BROKEN SEAL BUT NOT TOLD WHERE SEAL WAS. CAR NOW 4 YRS W/ ONLY 65466. MILES. ALWAYS GOT SYNTHETIC OIL CHANGE FOR MORE $ TO INSURE EXTENDED COVERAGE ON POWERTRAIN OR SO WAS INFORMED WOULD BE THE CASE. I ASKED, HOW CAN I GET A 4000 MILE EXTENDED COVERAGE ON THE POWERTRAIN WHEN I AM ONLY TO GET THE OIL CHANGED AT 5 - 6000 MILES, I WAS TOLD "DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT". OCT. 2011 CAR SPUTTERED AND SPIT AFTER FILLING TANK. I HOPED WAS DUE TO BAD GAS AS TOLD IN PAST, HOWEVER, THIS TIME, THE CAR WOULD ONLY GO 30 MPH, ANY FASTER, CAR ACTED LIKE WAS IN NEUTRAL. ORANGE WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON, I CALLED FORD GARAGE, AAA WAS TOWED IN. NO WARRANTY I AM TOLD BECAUSE I DIDN'T PURCHASE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY. WHY DID I NEED IT? I WAS TOLD I WOULD BE OK WITH THE SYNTHETIC OIL CHANGES AND EXTENDED COVERAGE ON THE POWERTRAIN. IN ADDITION, I AM BEING TOLD BECAUSE ONLY DID A TRANSMISSION FLUSH AT 30,000 NOT 60,000, NOT COVERED. WE ALL KNOW CAR SHOULD NOT NEED NEW TRANSMISSION AT 65466 MILES REGARDLESS. TREATED CAR LIKE A CHILD. WANT NOTHING ELSE. BEEN W/ FORD / NOW FORD/ MAZDA SINCE 18YRS OLD, NOW 52. LOYALTY GETS NOWHERE. IN PROCESS OF OBTAINING HISTORY ALL COMPLAINTS SINCE NEW TO FIGHT NO SUPPORT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT OCCASIONALLY WHEN DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS THE VEHICLE WOULD CHANGE GEARS VIOLENTLY, CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO LUNGE FORWARD ABNORMALLY. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THAT THERE WERE NO FAILURES WITHIN THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED BUT DENIED ANY ASSISTANCE WITH REPAIRS TO THE VEHICLE.

THE VEHICLE WOULD AT DIFFERENT TIMES, HAVE TROUBLE SHIFTING FROM PARK TO REVERSE, IN DRIVE, ETC. IT SOUNDED LIKE THE TRANSMISSION WAS BROKEN. THIS PROBLEM WOULD ARISE, AND THEN GO AWAY. THE FIRST TIME THE DEALERSHIP RESET THE COMPUTER, AND IT RAN FINE FOR WEEKS, THEN THE PROBLEM CAME ABOUT AGAIN, AND WENT AWAY, THE LAST TIME AROUND SEPT 18TH, IT WAS WORSE, SO I HAD IT TOWED AND REPAIRED. THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE OUTPUT SHAFT SENSOR AND TURBIN SHAFT SENSOR AT A COST OF $700. I WAS IMPELLED TO REPORT A CONCERN, AFTER SEEING OTHER CONCERNS ON LINE FOR THE SAME ISSUES, AND A CUSTOMER OF MINE WHO HAS AN EDGE IS EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUES. FORD MOTOR COMPANY, AND THE DEALERSHIPS DO NOT SEEM TO WANT TO SERIOUSLY ADDRESS THIS ISSUE, AND I FELT LIKE THEY WERE TRYING TO AVOID ADMITTING TO A MAJOR PROBLEM. *KB

2008 FORD EDGE HAS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED IMMEDIATELY. THE FORD DEALERSHIP AND FORD MOTOR CO. REFUSE ANY MORE REPAIR ATTEMPTS OF DEFECTIVE VEHICLE. WHILE DRIVING AT SPEEDS BETWEEN 40-65 MPH WITHOUT ANY WARNING OR SYMPTOM THE VEHICLE WILL SUDDENLY MAKE AN EXTREMELY LOUD BANG AND VIOLENT JERK OF THE ENTIRE VEHICLE AS IF BEING REAR ENDED. THIS OCCURS SO FAST AND QUICKLY THAT IT IS OVER ALMOST AS SOON AS IT BEGAN. THIS IS SUCH A FRIGHTENING AND DISTRACTIVE ORDEAL FOR NOT ONLY THE DRIVER BUT ALSO THE OTHER OCCUPANTS THAT FAMILY IS AFRAID TO USE THE VEHICLE. IT IS AS IF THE TRANSMISSION SLIPS FOR A SECOND THEN VIOLENTLY REENGAGES. THE PROBLEM FIRST OCCURRED IN MAY 2010 @ 48K MILES. NOW AFTER 13K MILES, 6 MONTHS AND 7 TRIES AT REPAIR/DIAGNOSIS AT FORD DEALERSHIPS AND HOURS ON THE PHONE WITH FORD DEALERS AND FORD MOTOR CO. THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS! I REALLY FEEL THAT FORD WAS JUST STALLING AND NOT ADMITTING TO DEFECT/MALFUNCTION IN ORDER TO LET THE 5YR - 60K MILE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY EXPIRE. THE TRUTH IS NO VEHICLE IN THE WORLD IS ENGINEERED/BUILT TO TAKE THIS PHYSICAL PUNISHMENT AND NOT FAIL. I BELIEVE IF THIS ISSUE IS NOT RESOLVED IT WILL LEAD TO A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE, AND I PRAY THAT NO ONE IS INJURED. *TR
