2009 FORD EDGE Service Brakes Problems

Brake Booster Failure. $947.45 to repair out of pocket expense. Thank God I was not injured or killed, nor was anyone else, or property damaged, as I was able to avoid a collision. There is a class action lawsuit over this defective Ford part.

When engaging brake pedal becomes very hard to push and having to push pedal all the way to the floor where it slows finally and then stops. It does not stop when push the brake pedal like normal. Pedal at the floor still not stopping then finally stops but by that time I could have ran into another car or through at stop light. I almost hit someone because of this.

Advised by mechanic that there are issues with the brake booster master cylinder that are causing serious braking issues. He's seen this issue in many ford vehicles of similar age recently. Said this issue is serious and can cause major damage to vehicle and safety concerns for drivers and passengers if brakes go out when vehicle is in use.

Extremely hard to press brake pedal. Can not stop suddenly. Ford dealer has confirmed brake booster went out

PEDAL WENT HARD AND DOWN TO THE FLOOR. CAME CLOSE TO REAR ENDING CAR IN FRONT OF ME. FROM WHAT I'VE HEARD THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE AND FORD DOESN'T HAVE A RECALL, ALTHOUGH THEY DO WITH NEWER YEARS OF THE SAME MODEL. VERY DANGEROUS AND THESE CARS SHOULD HAVE A RECALL.. IT'S ABSURD THAT A BRAKE BOOSTER SHOULD FAIL AND NOT HAVE A RECALL WITH A KNOWN DEADLY ISSUE.

WHEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE AND NEEDING TO BREAK THE BREAK PADEL WILL GO ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND ALMOST NOT STOP.

WHEN DRIVING THE VECHICLE AT ANY SPEED WHEN NEEDING TO BREAK THE BREAK PEDAL WILL GO TO THE FLOOR THE CAR IS UNABLE TO DRIVEN SAFELY AND COULD CAUSE A WRECK. WENT AND HAD THE BRAKES CHANGED TO SEE IF THEY WOULD HELP MECHANIC STATED THAT HE ORGINALLY BELIEVED THEIR WAS AIR IN THE LINE BUT HE STATED HE WAS UNABLE TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE AND KNEW THAT THE LINCOLN SUV HAD THIS SAME ISSUE AND WAS RECALLED. IF SOMEONE COULD CALL ME TO DISCUSS THE ISSUE THAT WOULD BE GREAT

THE BREAK PEDAL GOES STRAIGHT TO THE FLOOR WHICH MAKES IT HARD TO BREAK IN ENOUGH TIME WHICH COULD CAUSE A WRECK. I WENT TO A BREAK SHOP AND THE BREAKS WERE CHANGED BUT THE TECHNICIAN STATED THERE IS A ISSUE WITH THE ABS SYSTEM AND HE KNEW OF A RECALL IN THE LINCOLN MKZ FOR THIS PROBLEM. HE STATED THE FORD DEALERSHIP WOULD NEED TO FIX THIS AND IT SHOULD BE RECALLED DURING THIS YEAR MODEL OTHER FORD MODELS ARE RECALLED BUT NOT SEEING IT FOR THE EDGE

I HAVE BEEN TAKING MY CAR FOR AT LEAST THE PAST 3 YEARS TO HAVE THE BRAKES LOOKED AT. THE PEDAL GOES TOO FAR TO THE FLOOR. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO 3 DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS TO HAVE THE BRAKES LOOKED AT, ONLY TO BE TOLD THERE IS NO PROBLEM. I JUST HAD NEW FRONT BRAKES AND ROTORS PUT ON AUGUST 2019. MY SON WAS DRIVING THE CAR TO WORK THIS MORNING AND HAD AN ACCIDENT GOING THROUGH A TOLL BOOTH. HE SAID WHEN HE PRESSED ON THE BRAKES THE CAR JUST WOULD NOT STOP AT A GOOD RATE, AND THE PEDAL WAS SPONGIE. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL ON THE BRAKE SYSTEM FOR 2009 FORD EDGES. I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS COMPLAINT. THANK GOD NOBODY WAS INJURED, BUT WHAT IS IT GOING TO TAKE TO GET THIS TAKEN CARE OF.

I HAVE A 2009 FORD EDGE SEL WITH 113,300 MILES. I HAD BEEN EXPERIENCING BRAKE ISSUES WITH SQUEAKING AND HAVING TO PUSH THE BRAKE PEDAL DOWN ALL THE WAY WITH FEAR THAT THE CAR WOULD NOT STOP. THERE WERE NO WARNING SIGNS OR WARNING LIGHTS AND JUST CAME OUT OF THE BLUE. IT WOULD HAPPEN WHETHER I WAS JUST DRIVING SLOW OR FASTER ON ANY TYPE OF ROAD OR WEATHER CONDITION. I SAW FORD PUT AN EXTRA WARRANTY ON EDGES FROM 2010-2013 REGARDING THE SAME ISSUE VIA 13N02. I HAVE READ A LOT OF COMPLAINTS FROM YEARS PREVIOUS AND AFTER THIS EXTENDED WARRANTY. I THINK THIS SHOULD BE LOOKED INTO AS I HAVE A YOUNG SON WHO I DRIVE TO SCHOOL A LOT AND SINCE THERE WAS NO WARNING ABOUT BRAKE FAILURE I'M JUST THANKFUL NOTHING BAD HAPPENED. I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC AND WAS TOLD IT WAS THE MASTER CYLINDER AND A BAD POWER BRAKE BOOSTER. THANK YOU.

THE BRAKE BOOSTER WHICH IS A KNOWN PROBLEM ON EVERY FORD EDGE FROM 2007 - 2013 STARTED MAKING A HISS OR LOUD SQUEAKING NOISE WHEN PRESSURE WAS APPLIED TO THE BRAKES. FOR THIS 6 YEAR FORD HAS INSTALLED THE EXACT SAME MANUFACTURERS PART, BUT FORD HAS ONLY RECALLED SOME OF THESE YEARS DESPITE THE SAME ISSUES OCCURRING WITH EVERY MODEL YEAR. AFTER A WHILE THE NOISE INTENSIFIED AND THEN THE BRAKES FAILED!!! SOMETIMES THE BRAKES WOULD NOT ENGAGE UNTIL THE PEDAL WAS MASHED TO THE FLOOR, SOMETIMES THEY ENGAGED AS SOON AS THE PEDAL WAS PRESSED. THIS CREATES A VERY DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENT. I OWN 3 DIFFERENT MODEL FORD VEHICLES, BUT THIS COULD BE THE LAST FORD I PURCHASE. I TOOK THE EDGE INTO A BRAKE SPECIALIST AND WAS TOLD ABOUT THIS BEING A WELL KNOWN ISSUE ON THE FORD EDGE, BUT THAT I PURCHASED THE "WRONG" YEAR 2009 AND THIS IS THE ONLY MODEL YEAR NOT COVERED UNDER THE NHTSA RECALL. THEY HAVE QUOTED ME $925 TO MAKE THE REPAIRS. WHILE I WILL DO THIS REPAIR SINCE I WILL NOT PUT MY FAMILY AT RISK WE ARE VERY DISAPPOINTED BY FORD'S CORPORATE NEGLIGENCE ON THIS ISSUE.

I HAVE SEARCH THE INTERNET AND THERE IS A LARGE REPORTS OF A POWER BOOSTER FAILURE IN CERTAIN YEARS OF THIS FORD MODEL. I SEARCHED MY VIN # AND IT WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL EVEN THOUGH I READ FROM OTHERS THAT HAD THE SAME ISSUE THAT I'M HAVING NOW. THE BRAKE PEDDLE AT TIMES IS TOUGH TO PRESS, LIKE NO PLAY IN IT WHILE I AM TRYING TO STOP IT IS DIFFICULT. I HAVE TO PUMP THE PEDDLE TO GET IT TO WORK.

THE BRAKE PEDAL ON MY 2009 EDGE BEGAN MAKING A HORRIBLE NOISE AND GOING RIGHT TO THE FLOOR ON OCCASION WHEN PRESSED BOTH WHEN STATIONARY OR ON THE ROAD.

BRAKES ARE MAKING A SOUND LIKE ITS BLOWING AIR. THE BRAKE GETS REALLY HARD TO PRESS THE BRAKE PEDDLE WHILE STOPPING, THEN GETS REALLY SOFT AND I CAN PUSH IT ALL THE WAY DOWN. I HAVE ONLY OWNED MY CAR FOR A COUPLE OF WEEKS AND I HAVE ALMOST BEEN IN 2 ACCIDENTS BECAUSE OF THE BRAKES. USUALLY THIS HAPPENS WHILE SLOWING DOWN AT TRAFFIC LIGHTS.

THE BRAKE PEDAL HAS A SPONGY FEEL AND YOU CAN HEAR AN AUDIBLE "HISSING" NOISE INSIDE THE CAR. THE NOISE WILL GO AWAY AS YOU APPLY DIFFERENT PRESSURES TO THE BRAKE PEDAL, BUT THEN WILL COME BACK AS SOON AS YOU MAINTAIN THE SAME LEVEL OF PRESSURE. THERE IS A KNOW CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM 13N02 (EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR BRAKE BOOSTER), AND AFTER READING THE DESCRIPTION AND DETAILS OF THE PROGRAM, THE SYMPTOMS ARE IDENTICAL. I CALLED THE DEALER AND AFTER RUNNING THE VIN NUMBER, I WAS TOLD THAT MY CAR DID NOT QUALIFY. I ALSO KNOW THAT IT IS NOT ANOTHER BRAKE COMPONENT AS THE VEHICLE HAS BRAND NEW FRONT AND REAR ROTORS, FRONT AND REAR PADS, AND BRAND NEW BRAKE FLUID IN THE SYSTEM. IT IS NOT VERY DIFFICULT TO DEDUCE THAT THERE'S SOME TYPE OF VACUUM LEAK (OR AIR LEAK) WHEN YOU HEAR HISSING NOISES COMING FROM THE CAR. VEHICLE IS STILL DRIVING, BUT PROBLEM CONTINUES TO GET WORSE AND FROM WHAT I'VE READ ON THE INTERNET, THE BRAKE BOOSTER WILL EVENTUALLY FAIL AND COULD CAUSE A DANGEROUS DRIVING SITUATION.

Mileage: 111,000

SAME RECALL AS 2010-2015 MODELS. BRAKE POWER BOOSTER AND BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER ISSUES.

BRAKES SEEM TO FAIL TO ENGAGE, SOMETIMES THEY ARE HARD TO PRESS AND THEN WILL GO ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. SOMETIMES THE ENGAGE REALLY HARD AND CAUSE ME TO SNAP FORWARD HARD. I TALKED TO FORD AND THEY SAY THERE ARE NO CURRENT RECALLS OR ISSUES WITH THE BRAKING SYSTEM. VEHICLE MOVING AND ALSO WHEN IDLING AT STOP SIGN I HAVE TO PUT IN NEUTRAL TO PREVENT THE CAR FROM MOVING.

NOT SURE WHAT TAKATA INFLATORS MEANS I WAS I ONLY TYPING WHAT WEBSITE ASKED OF ME TO TYPE ON THE FIRST LINE OF EVERY PAGE.

"TAKATA RECALL" HAVE TO PRESS ALL THE DOWN FOR BRAKES TO WORK. DOESNT DO IT ALL THE TIME.

THE VEHICLE, SUDDENLY BECAME VERY HARD TO STOP. THE BRAKE PEDAL FELT AS THOUGH IT WAS STUCK AND REQUIRED A HUGE AMOUNT OF PRESSURE TO SLOW THE VEHICLE TO A COMPLETE STOP. FORTUNATELY, WE WERE GOING AT A RELATIVELY LOW SPEED WHEN THE PROBLEM FIRST OCCURRED. HOWEVER, WE HAD DRIVEN FROM SOUTH FLORIDA TO ATLANTA AT HIGHWAY SPEED WITHOUT INCIDENT AND SUDDENLY THE PROBLEM WAS THERE. JUST PRIOR TO THE HARD BRAKING, THERE WAS A LOUD WHISTLING SOUND INSIDE THE VEHICLE, COMING FROM UNDER OR BEHIND THE DASHBOARD. IT SOUND A THOUGH THERE WAS A VACUUM LEAK, BUT THE SOUND LASTED ONLY A SHORT TIME. LATER WHEN I STARTED THE VEHICLE I HEARD THE WHISTLING SOUND AGAIN. I CHECKED UNDER THE HOOD AND DASH BUT SAW NOTHING OBVIOUSLY WRONG. AS THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF THIS VEHICLE, I WAS VERY SURPRISED WHEN THE FORD SERVICE REP IN ATLANTA TOLD WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS. THIS VEHICLE, CURRENTLY HAS 40,650 MILES ON IT. AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT THE ODOMETER READ, 38, 648 MILES. IT COST ME $658 TO HAVE THE PROBLEM CORRECTED. NO WAY THIS TYPE PROBLEM SHOULD OCCUR AT THIS MILEAGE. UPON CHECKING FURTHER, I FOUND THAT FORD HAD ISSUED A CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM (CSP) 13N02 TO ADDRESS THIS VERY PROBLEM IN MODEL YEARS 2010 THROUGH 2013. IN SPEAKING TO FORD THEY TOLD ME THERE WAS NOTHING THAT COULD BE DONE, SINCE MY "VIN" WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE CSP. FORD FURTHER STATED, IF THE NHTSA DEMEANED MY PROBLEM TO THE SAME AS THE PROBLEM AS COVERED IN CSP 13N02, AND IF THERE ARE ENOUGH COMPLAINTS, THEN PERHAPS A NEW PROGRAM WOULD BE INITIATED. AND AT THAT TIME I COULD BE REIMBURSED FOR THE REPAIRS. IN AN ONLINE SEARCH I SEE THERE ARE OTHERS WITH THIS VACUUM BOOSTER ASSEMBLY FAILURE. ALSO IN THE NHTSA DATABASE THERE ARE FOUR OTHERS WITH NEWER VEHICLES EXPERIENCING THIS SAME PROBLEM. PERHAPS FORD SHOULD ASKED TO REVIEW THIS PROBLEM AGAIN. *TR
