NHTSA Complaint #10860447 — 2012 FORD EDGE

I PURCHASED MY LOW MILEAGE EDGE FROM LOCAL FORD DEALER. EXPERIENCING PERIODIC ISSUE WITH CAR TRANSMISSION LAG OR JERKING WHEN ACCELERATING FROM STOP, AS AT A STOP SIGN OR PULLING OUT OF PARKING LOTS. TOOK TO DEALER SEVERAL TIMES, THEY CAN'T DUPLICATE ISSUE, NO CODES. MORE RECENTLY THE BACKUP CAMERA HAS INTERMITTENTLY FAILED. NO BACKUP GUIDELINES ARE PRESENT, SOMETIMES BACKUP CAMERA IS VISIBLE, THEN GOES BLACK, OTHER TIMES DOESN'T WORK AT ALL. NOW MY BRAKES ARE GIVING ME ISSUES. THE PEDAL WILL EITHER BE VERY HARD TO PRESS, AS IN LOSING POWER BRAKING WHEN A VEHICLE DIES. THEN THE PEDAL MAY GO ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. DID EXPERIENCE SOMETHING SIMILAR WHILE IN FAST FOOD DRIVE THRU, FOOT ON BRAKE, THEN BRAKE LOSING PRESSURE AND PEDAL DEPRESSING TO FLOOR. I PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK, THEN THE "SERVICE ADVANCE TRACK: LIGHT CAME ON BRIEFLY. THIS VEHICLE IS NOT SAFE AND ONCE I MAKE A LIST OF ALL OF THE SERVICE BULLETINS IT'S GOING TO THE DEALER FOR REPAIR. LAST TIME I WENT THE IDIOT AT THE SERVICE COUNTER PUT THAT I SAID THE VEHICLE "STALLED". NEVER DID I SAY THAT HAPPENED. I SAID THERE WAS A LAG IN ACCELERATION AND THE FEELING LIKE A TRANSMISSION JERKING INTO GEAR. PIECE OF JUNK FORD, DON'T KNOW WHAT I WAS THINKING BUYING IT. ALL OF THESE COMPLAINTS ON THIS SITE, AMAZING THERE AREN'T MORE ACCIDENTS. SHAME ON YOU FORD! YOU USED TO MAKE QUALITY PRODUCTS.
