Consumer Description

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.
