2007 FORD EDGE Vehicle Speed Control Problems

Cruise control stops working and starts working again at varies times. Thermostat sticks to cause the the temp to go from normal to hot quick. Fuel gage/floater is never accurate with how much gas is in gas tank

FORD EDGE LOUD CLUNK WHEN PUT INTO GEAR AN WHEN IN GEAR YOU HAVE TO PUT IT TO THE FLOOR TO GET THE CAR TO MOVE AN REALLY HIGH RPM. DASH LIGHTS WILL COME ON FLASH AN ACT ALL CRAZY. FASTER TO WALK CUZ THE CAR WON'T GO. WILL DO IT AT A STOP OR JUST RANDOM GOING DOWN THE ROAD. HAVE TO GET OFF THE ROAD QUICK OR IT WILL STOP I THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. *TR

THE WRENCH LIGHT AND AIRBAG LIGHTS WERE ON. MY SPEEDOMETER WASN'T WORKING. TRANSMISSION WAS CLUNKING. THE POWERTRAIN (WRENCH) & SERVICE ENGINE SIGNALS COME ON AFTER EXPERIENCING LOSS OF SPEED SUCH AS AFTER A TRAFFIC LIGHT STOP. WE HAVE TO PUSH DOWN FAR ON THE GAS PEDAL JUST TO MOVE AND THIS IS FOLLOWED BY ROUGH SHIFTING (MAKES A SUDDEN JERK AND LOUD THUD SOUND). EVERYTHING GOES BACK TO NORMAL FOR AWHILE WHEN THE VEHICLE IS TURNED OFF; ITS LIKE THE CAR RESETS ITSELF.

WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY FOR THE 3RD TIME THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON AND THE CAR JUST STARTED SLOWING DOWN. WHEN I TURN THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON IT GOES OFF, SO FAR IT HAS NOT COME BACK ON OR HAPPENED HAPPENED AGAIN. WHEN THE HAPPENED THE SECOND TIME I GOT HOME TURNED THE CAR OFF AND THE WIPERS CAME ON. NOT SURE IF THAT IS RELATED BUT IT IS UNUSUAL.

MY STEERING WHEEL SHAKES BAD. MY WHEELS VIBRATE SEEMS LIKE THEY ABOUT TO COME OFF WHILE I'M DRIVING. MY SPEED REDUCES ITSELF FROM FAST TO SLOW.

WHILE STOPPED WHEN GOING TO ACCELERATE THE TRANSMISSION FEELS LIKE IT'S NOT WORKING THE VEHICLE WRAPS THE SPEEDOMETER THE MILE WHICH DOESN'T WORK SPEED DOESN'T WORK AIRBAG LIGHTS ARE ON WRENCH LIGHT IS ON TIRE LIGHT IS ON RPM STAY AT 2K THE VEHICLE WILL BARELY MOVE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WAS NOTIFIED AND DIAGNOSED THAT THE THROTTLE BODY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. NORTH CENTRAL FORD IN DALLAS, TEXAS WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL ON THE FAILURE AND TRANSFERRED THE CONTACT TO NHTSA. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 81,300.

THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED A MONTH AGO, IT WAS A SIMILAR ISSUE THAT RESOLVED ITSELF WITHIN ABOUT 10 MINUTES. BUT THE SECOND TIME IT HAPPENED 7 DAYS AGO, IT LASTED LONGER AND UNFORTUNATELY I HAD MY 14 MONTH OLD IN THE CAR. I WAS PULING OUT OF A PARKING SPACE ONE LATE AFTERNOON AND PROCEEDED TO DRIVE FORWARD AND NOTICED THAT IT WAS REVING VERY LOUDLY EVEN THOUGH IT WAS BARELY MOVING. WHENEVER I WOULD COME TO A LIGHT AND STOP OR SLOW DOWN TO TURN AND THEN TRY TO INCREASE MY SPEED I NOTICED THAT IT WOULD BE REVING SO LOUDLY AND BARELY MOVING AT FIRST, BUT THEN AFTER ABOUT 10 SECONDS IT WOULD START TO MOVE A LITTLE FASTER - BUT NOT AS FAST AS IT USUALLY MOVES WHEN I PUT THE SAME AMOUNT OF PRESSURE ON THE GAS PEDAL. I ALSO NOTICED ALONG THE WAY THAT...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, THE ACCELERATION DECREASED EVEN WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR FLASHED. THE CONTACT HAD TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TO A COMPLETE STOP. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE VEHICLE NEEDED A NEW COIL AND POWER CONTROL MODULE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 75,000.

WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET AND ON A STATE ROAD TRANSMISSION WILL ACT AND SOUND LIKE IT IS SLIPPING OR NOT ENGAGING IN GEAR AND SOMETIMES WILL ONLY WORK IN REVERSE.WHEN PROBLEM OCCURS VEHICLE WILL LOSE ALL POWER AND ENGINE WILL REV UP BUT VEHICLE WILL NOT MOVE. I HAVE HAD IT TOWED TO DEALER AND HAVE TAKEN IT IN TO DEALER, THEY SAY THEY CANNOT DUPLICATE THE THE PROBLEM. THEY ALSO TOLD ME THAT WHEN IT HAPPENS I NEED TO PULL OVER SOMEWHERE SAFE AND SHUT THE CAR OFF AND LET THE "COMPUTER/ SENSORS " RESET AND THAT WILL "TAKE CARE" OF THE PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM IS GETTING PROGRESSIVELY WORSE AS TIME GOES ON. I AM AFRAID IF THIS HAPPENS IN TRAFFIC SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET SERIOUSLY HURT OR KILLED AS THERE IS NO POWER TO GET OFF THE ROAD AND OUT OF TRAFFIC

HIGHWAY SPEED THE CAR SUDDENLY SLOWED DOWN. SPEEDOMETER DROPPED TO ZERO, INFORMATION PANEL WENT BLANK, POWERTRAIN MALFUNCTION/REDUCED POWER LIGHT CAME ON, AIRBAG FRONT LIGHT CAME ON. PULLED CAR TO SHOULDER AS SOON AS POSSIBLE AND SHUT KEY OFF. RESTARTED CAR AND EVERYTHING APPEARED NORMAL EXCEPT CAR HAD VERY LITTLE POWER TO MOVE UNTIL ABOUT 10 MPH WAS REACHED WHEN A HARD TRANSMISSION SHIFT PUT CAR INTO GEAR AND ALL BECAME FULLY OPERATIONAL. THIS HAPPENED THREE TIMES IN A ONE WEEK PERIOD OF TIME, ALWAYS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. SUBSEQUENT RESEARCH BY INDEPENDENT MECHANIC INDICATED THIS A COMMON PROBLEM REQUIRING REPLACEMENT OF TWO SPEED SENSORS IN TRANSMISSION AT COST OF $629.00.

VEHICLE EXPERIENCED A SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER AND STARTED SHAKING VIOLENTLY, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. TOWED TO MECHANIC. ELECTRONIC DIAGNOSTICS CODES P0351, P0352, P0354, P0301, P0302, P0316, P0420 BANK CATALYST BELOW THRESHOLD. PERFORMED PIN POINT TEST ON ALL COILS, FUEL SYSTEM, AND RELATIVE COMPRESSION. PERFORMED ALL REPAIRS RELATED TO TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN 12_8_17. AFTER VERIFYING BURNT COIL AND INTERNAL DRIVER FAULT OF PCM TO COALS! REPLACED ALL IGNITION COILS, ALL SPARK PLUGS, UPPER INTAKE GASKETS AND PCM! USED ALL FORD OE PARTS.REPROGRAMED PCM AND ROAD TEST TO VERIFY ALL REPAIRS. COST $2039.29. VERIFIED CONVERTER DAMAGE RELATED TO IGNITION FAILURE DUMPING RAW FUEL THROUGH BANK 1. REPLACED ORIGINAL CONVERTER, SEAL, GASKET, CLEANED ALL O2 SENSORS. COST $704.94. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH, THE VEHICLE'S SPEED SUDDENLY DECREASED TO APPROXIMATELY 20 MPH AND THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SHUTTER AND VIBRATE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE FAILURE WAS CAUSED BY A FAULTY PCM, WHICH CAUSED DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE COIL PACKS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,000.

THE TRANSMISSION FEELS LIKE IT IS IN NEUTRAL. IT JERKS LIKE SOMEONE HAS RAN INTO YOUR VEHICLE WITH THEIR VEHICLE. SEVERAL WARNING LIGHTS COME ON. SPEEDOMETER GOES TO ZERO. IF YOU COME TO A STOP, YOU MAY NOT GET GOING AGAIN. HAD THIS CHECKED OUT AND REPLACED A SENSOR COSTING ME $425.00 AND LESS THAN 2 WEEKS LATER, PROBLEM OCCURS AGAIN. HAD THIS CHECKED OUT AND NOW THEY ARE HOLLERING ANOTHER SENSOR HAS WENT BAD AND THIS ONE IS GOING TO COST $600.00. DID NOT HAVE THIS ONE FIXED!! ALSO HAD TO HAVE VEHICLE TOWED HOME ONE TIME COSTING EVEN MORE MONEY.... *TR

AFTER STOPPING AT A STOP SIGN, WHEN I PRESSED THE ACCELERATOR MY 2007 FORD EDGE WOULD NOT GO FORWARD (ALTHOUGH THE ENGINE CONTINUED TO RUN). I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND TRIED SEVERAL MORE TIMES UNSUCCESSFULLY. NOT KNOWING WHAT ELSE TO DO I PRESSED HARD ON THE ACCELERATOR AND IT STARTED AGAIN. THAT HAPPENED 6 MONTHS AGO. IN THE PAST 3 WEEKS IT HAS HAPPENED 2 MORE TIMES. TODAY, IT TOOK A DIFFERENT TURN. THE CAR SHIFTED WITH DIFFICULTY, THE WRENCH ICON LIT UP ON THE DASHBOARD AND THEN RODE SLUGGISHLY TIL I GOT HOME (ABOUT 4 MILES). I LEFT THE CAR IN MY DRIVEWAY FOR 30 MINUTES - WHEN I TURNED IT BACK ON THE WRENCH ICON WAS OFF AND THE CAR RAN FINE. UPON A SEARCH ON THE INTERNET I HAVE FOUND I AM NOT ALONE WITH THIS SAFETY ISSUE. I AM ALSO NOT...

WHILE TRAVELING AT A SPEED OF 60 MPH DOWN THE HIGHWAY, I LOST ALL POWER TO MY EDGE. THE SPEEDOMETER WENT TO 0, MILEAGE BLANKED OUT, AND I HAD THE AIR BAG, WRENCH & LOW TIRE PRESSURE LIGHTS CAME ON. WHEN YOU WOULD GO FROM PARK TO REVERSE OR FROM PARK TO DRIVE, THERE WOULD BE A BIG CLUNKING NOISE AND NO ACCELERATION. WHEN THIS FIRST HAPPENED YOU COULD TURN THE CAR OFF AND IT WOULD RESET AFTER A FEW MINUTES. NOW YOU HAVE TO UNHOOKED THE BATTERY CABLES AND REPLACE THEM, BUT THIS ONLY LASTS FOR A WHILE. IT IS NOT A FIX. THIS IS STILL HAPPENING TO THIS DAY. NO ONE WE HAVE CONTACTED CAN TELL US THE PROBLEM. PLEASE HELP IF YOU CAN. *TR

DRIVING DOWN INTERSTATE HIGHWAY, SPEEDOMETER DROPS TO ZERO THEN DASH LIGHTS ALL COME ON. GET OFF HIGHWAY PULL OVER AND CAR DOES NOT MOVE. WAIT ABOUT 20 MINUTES, PUT CAR IN D, HEAR LOUD BANG, CAR LUNGES FORWARD A LITTLE THEN DRIVES NORMALLY. SECOND TIME IT HAPPENED WAS ON HIGHWAY AT @60MPH WHEN SAME THING HAPPENS, GET OFF HIGHWAY AND STOP AT 2ND RED LIGHT WHEN THE CAR DOES NOT MOVE AT ALL. LET CAR SIT FOR @10 MIN. THEN IT STARTS GOING @10MPH, AFTER ABOUT 1 MILE RESUMES NORMAL OPERATION. HAVE BROUGHT TO LOCAL FORD DEALER AND HAD 2 SENSORS REPLACED ALONG WITH A TRANSMISSION FLUID EXCHANGE BUT NOW TODAY IT HAPPENED AGAIN WHEN I STOPPED AT BUSY BACK ROAD INTERSECTION THEN TRIED TO RESUME SPEED THE VEH. WOULD NOT MOVE. E-MAILED LOCAL FORD DEALER TO LET THEM KNOW THAT ISSUE WAS HAPPENING ONCE AGAIN AFTER SENSORS WERE REPLACED....

PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC AND EXPERIENCED VERY HARSH SHIFTING. THE TRANSMISSION SHUTTERED AND SHOOK, ALMOST REFUSING TO GO THROUGH THE INTERSECTION. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE HAD A LOSS OF POWER AND REDUCED SPEED INTERMITTENTLY. THE CONTACT MADE MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS TO RESTART THE VEHICLE AND ACCELERATE TO NO AVAIL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE COMPUTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED AND THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT THE ENGINE COILS, CATALYTIC CONVERTER AND SPARK PLUGS HAD BEEN BURNED AND ADDITIONAL REPAIRS WERE REQUIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TO BE REPAIRED BY AN AUTHORIZED DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 84,000.

2007 FORD EDGE HAS BEEN SHIFTING GEARS HEAVY (ESPECIALLY LOW) AND GETTING WORSE. LAST WEEK IT SHOULD HAVE DOWN SHIFTED TO 2ND BUT INSTEAD UP SHIFTED TO LIKE 4 OR 5TH GEAR AND I LOST ANY REAL POWER TO GET UP THE HILL. THE NOISE ITSELF WAS A VERY NOTICEABLE BANG AND SHUDDER. THIS IS APPARENTLY HAPPENING TO OTHER BECAUSE THERE'S YOUTUBE VIDEOS OF THE EXACT SAME THING. *TR

AFTER PULLING OUT ONTO A HIGHWAY, MY CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. THE ENGINE DIDN'T STOP BUT PRESSING GAS DID NOT HELP. WAS FORCED TO COAST TO SIDE, CAR SHUDDERED, THEN STALLED. AFTER WAITING A FEW, CAR STARTED. WAS ABLE TO DRIVE IT A MILE TO A NEARBY REPAIR SHOP. WE WERE CALLED AND ADVISED IT WAS A TRANSMISSION ISSUE AND DUE TO MILES ON THE CAR, IT SHOULD BE TOWED TO THE NEAREST DEALERSHIP (UNDER WARRANTY). FORD SERVICE COULD NOT REPRODUCE THE ISSUE. WE WERE TOLD NOTHING WAS WRONG & TO PICK IT UP. PRIOR TO PICKING UP, WE FOUND A TSB THAT DESCRIBED WHAT WE HAD BUT WERE TOLD THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG. MAY 2013, CAR DID SAME BUT THIS TIME, THE WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON. TOWED (TO ANOTHER FORD SERVICE DEALER),& ISSUE WAS FOUND. REPAIR MADE. NOT SURPRISINGLY, ISSUE WAS SAME TSB WE PULLED IN 2011. 7 MONTHS...

WHILE DRIVING ON INTERSTATE AT A FIXED SPEED OF 70MPH, THE CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED TO 80 MPH, THEN SLOWED DOWN, AND REACCELERATED. THE RPM NEEDLE WENT OVER TO 4000. I HAD TO TURN CRUISE CONTROL OFF. IT HAS OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES, BUT I HAVE NOTICED THAT DURING WINTER MONTHS, IT ISN'T AN ISSUE, BUT WHEN THE WEATHER IS WARM, THE PROBLEM BECOMES PERSISTENT. DEALERSHIP COULD NOT FIND PROBLEM SO THEY RESET THE ELECTRONIC SYSTEM. STILL HAD PROBLEM. *TR

I WAS DRIVING ON A BUSY FREEWAY IN MORNING TRAFFIC AND WENT TO ACCELERATE TO CHANGE LANES B/C EXIT WAS COMING UP - NOTICED TRUCK JUST DIDN'T SOUND RIGHT. I FLOORED IT AND THE RPM'S SHOT UP TO OVER 4,000 BUT MY SPEED STAYED AT AROUND 70. I TAPPED THE BRAKES AND THE RPMS DROPPED TO RIGHT ABOVE 0 AND MY TRUCK STARTED SLOWING WAY DOWN QUICK AND I TRIED GIVING IT MORE GAS BUT WOULDN'T GO. THEN IT STARTED SHAKING AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. LUCKILY I WAS ONLY IN THE 2ND LANE FROM OUTSIDE SHOULDER AND WAS ABLE TO MANEUVER MY TRUCK TO THE SHOULDER AND TURN IT OFF TO WAIT FOR THE TOW TRUCK. HAD MY MECHANIC CHECK IT OUT AND HE SAID THE COMPUTER HAS MALFUNCTIONED (POSSIBLY COMPLETELY GONE OUT - WAITING ON HIM TO CHECK IT OUT TODAY) AND CAUSED THE #4 CYLINDER NOT...

TURNED ON CAR, ONCE WE PUT IT IN DRIVE, COULD GET NO FORWARD MOTION WITH ACCELERATION, MINIMAL FORWARD MOTIONS WHEN WE FLOORED IT. PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE AND THERE WAS A HEAVY KNOCK AND FELT LIKE THE ENGINE FELL OUT OF THE CAR. WE TURNED OFF THE CAR, WAITED A BIT AND TRIED AGAIN AND IT DROVE NORMALLY. THIS HAS HAPPENED A DOZEN OR SO TIMES, BUT RECENTLY OCCURRED AFTER I HAD BEEN DRIVING NORMALLY AND CAME TO A STOP AT A LIGHT. I TRIED TO ACCELERATE WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN BUT COULDN'T GO. I PUT THE CAR IN LOW GEAR AND IT MOVED SLOWLY FORWARD, THEN AFTER A BIT I SHIFTED IT BACK UP TO NORMAL AND THE GEAR ENGAGED AGAIN. SCARY IF YOU CAN'T MOVE WHEN NEEDED! I AM ALSO EXPERIENCING A CHUGGING WHEN I ACCELERATE TO ABOUT 40MPH... IT STUTTERS.. WHO KNOWS WHAT THAT IS!...

THE SPEEDOMETER WENT TO ZERO AND ALL THE MILEAGE INFORMATION WENT BLANK. THE FRONT AIRBAG LIGHT, SERVICE WRENCH AND SHORTLY THERE AFTER THE TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR LIGHT CAME ON. I EXITED THE FREEWAY AND AFTER STOPPING FOR THE TRAFFIC LIGHT THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE, BUT MOVED SLOWLY APPARENTLY STUCK IN THE HIGH GEARS. THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT SHIFT UP OR DOWN. THE NEXT STOP LIGHT THE SAME PROBLEM. I PARKED IN A PARKING LOT AND RECYCLED THE IGNITION AND THE MILEAGE INFORMATION RETURNED. HOWEVER WHEN I PUT THE VEHICLE INTO REVERSE THE TRANSMISSION BEGAN TO CLUNK VIOLENTLY! I THEN SWITCHED TO DRIVE AND AGAIN IT CLUNKED VIOLENTLY! I RECYCLED THE IGNITION AGAIN AND PUT IT INTO REVERSE AGAIN CLUNKING VIOLENTLY. I AGAIN RECYCLED THE IGNITION AND PUT INTO REVERSE THE VEHICLE TRANS CLUNKED MOVING BACKWARDS. I THEN PULLED FORWARD SHIFTING TO DRIVE AGAIN WITH A CLUNK THE VEHICLE MOVED...
