Consumer Description
Brakes were not functioning properly. Nearly got into an accident because of the increased stopping distance. I was driving on the highway pressed the brakes when a car cut in front of me. Brakes were hard to depress then pedal would go to the floor. Dealer service department indicated that there is a faulty brake booster. Found out that there was a recall / "Customer Satisfaction Program 13N02" on other 2013 Ford Edge vehicles. Called Ford Corporate and they indicated that my vehicle was not covered under this customer service program, even though it was built at the same facility during the same time that this customer service program was supposed to cover. I find it very concerning that Ford has not addressed this issue in a more widespread proactive manner. Clearly my vehicle has the same issue as others that were covered. Getting reimbursed for the cost of this would be nice, but my main concern is that this is a major safety issue that has not been addressed properly and people could get seriously hurt.
