Consumer Description
2013 FORD EDGE CURRENT ISSUE: WITHOUT ANY WARNING BRAKES STARTED HISSING AND SCREECHING. IN THE SAME DAY THE BRAKES WERE HARD TO PRESS AND DID NOT STOP THE CAR AND THEN THEY WERE LOOSE TO THE FLOOR, BUT THEY DID NOT STOP THE CAR. I GOOGLED AND FOUND OUT THAT SOME VEHICLES WITH THE SAME YEAR 2013 HAVE A RECALL, BUT MY VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE SYMPTOMS LEAD TO A FAILING BREAK BOOSTER. MY CARS INFORMATION SYSTEM CHECK DOES NOT SHOW ANY WARNINGS, BRAKES SAY OK, BUT I AM NOT ABLE TO DRIVE MY CAR. THE BRAKES ARE NOT GRINDING. TWICE I HAD TO SWERVE ONTO THE SHOULDER OF THE HIGHWAY TO AVOID REAR ENDING THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. THIS IS FRIGHTENING TO OCCUR TO ANYONE WITHOUT A SYSTEM WARNING.
