NHTSA Complaint #11100043 — 2018 FORD EDGE

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE SO WEAK THAT WHEN THE ROAD IS WET AT NIGHT OR WHEN DRIVING NEAR AMBIENT LIGHTING SUCH AS STREET LIGHTS YOU CAN'T SEE ANY MARKINGS ON THE ROAD SUCH AS THE CENTERLINE OF THE ROAD. THERE IS ALSO EXHAUST FUMES COMING INTO THE CAR WHEN DRIVING WITH THE WINDOWS UP OR SLIGHTLY ROLLED DOWN AND WHEN THE CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM IS IN RECIRCULATING MODE. THESE FUMES MAKE ME DIZZY AND CAUSE ME TO HAVE BLURRY VISION. I ALMOST COMPLETELY BLACKED OUT TWICE ALREADY AND I OWNED THIS CAR FOR THREE WEEKS. I DIDN'T KNOW THAT FORD EDGE HAD THESE PROBLEMS AND THE SALESMAN OF COURSE NEVER MENTIONED THEM. THESE PROBLEMS WITH THE EXHAUST HAPPEN WHILE DRIVING SLOWLY UNDER 20 MPH AND AT HIGHER SPEEDS ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN THE RECIRCULATING MODE IS ON WITH OR WITHOUT THE AIR CONDITIONING TURNED ON. I HAVE DRIVEN WITH THE CLIMATE CONTROL TOTALLY OFF AND STILL THE FUMES COME INSIDE THE CAR. IT'S AS IF THE BODY OF THE CAR IS CREATING A VACUUM THAT PULLS THE EXHAUST BACK INTO THE CAR BECAUSE I CAN HAVE TO CLIMATE SYSTEM OFF AND THE WINDOWS OPEN AND EXHAUST GETS SUCKED IN. THIS CAR IS S $36,000 DEATH TRAP AND I PAID THE FULL PRICE SO I'M SCREWED.
