2008 FORD EDGE Engine Problems

I am reporting what I believe to be mileage roll back and fraud. The vehicle was bought from a private seller and upon submitting paperwork to the DMV, it was found that the mileage on the car's odometer was less than the mileage on the car's title information.

When I accelerate, my car jerks or the shifting is not smooth anymore. Others have been quoted over $9k to fix this issue.

The contact owns a 2008 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the contact stated that the vehicle had been misfiring. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed with failed programmable module installation (PMI) that needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The contact stated that the PMI had experienced the failure for a second time. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 130,000.

The contact owns a 2008 Ford Edge. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle started to jerk, and the contact became aware of a burning odor. The contact pulled over off the roadway. The check engine warning light intermittently illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic to be diagnosed. The contact was informed that the water pump had failed. The water pump was replaced however, the failure recurred. The vehicle was taken back to the independent mechanic where it was diagnosed and determined that the brakes had failed and needed to be replaced; however, the failure recurred. The check engine warning light illuminated, and the low oil pressure warning light illuminated. The contact stated that after a week, the failure recurred, and the vehicle failed to shift into the intended gear. Additionally, the contact stated that the vehicle hesitated and stalled.

Water pump recall class action

I believe it was March,2022 or April,2022 my check engine light came On 20’ before pulling into my driveway. I called “Protect My Car” insurance protection that I have, had my Edge towed to a repair shop and they said my antifreeze was leaking into my oil, that my water pump went out and said it was my fault as I neglected taking care of my vehicle and they have denied paying to fix it, even thought it is 100% covered. Not sure what to do as it only has 151,000 miles on it and the body is in good shape and clean inside. I had no idea the water pump went out. I’m not a mechanic and thought that’s why I was paying them for problems like this. I need help to get it fixed and never neglected it or drove it after check engine light came on.

The contact owns a 2008 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds the vehicle would not properly accelerate and the engine would misfire. Also on occasions, the check engine light had illuminated and the speed would not increase past 10 mph. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer who diagnosed that the input-out sensor in the transmission was faulty causing the ignition coil to melt. The contact indicated that the PCM was also faulty. The vehicle was repaired but the failures continued to occur. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 50,000.

HERE WE ARE YEARS LATER AND STILL THE SAME ISSUES....LOSS OF POWER WITHOUT WARNING, SHUTS OFF WITH NO WARNING. BANGS WHEN SHIFTING, VERY ROUGH SHIFTING. FEELS LIKE ITS IN 1ST GEAR AND THEN SHIFTS ROUGHLY INTO GEAR, OR I HAVE TO STOP SHUT IT OFF AND START AGAIN. I SEE ALOT OF THE SAME COMPLAINT AND NO RECALL? ITS GETTIN STUPID NOW! THIS SHOULD BE RECALLED, IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE!

VEHICLE STALLED WHILE REVERSING INTO A PARKING SPOT. BARELY STARTED. STALLED A FEW SECONDS LATER AFTER COMPLETING THE REVERSE INTO PARKING SPOT. BARELY STARTED AGAIN. GOT ON THE ROAD AND DRIVING FINE A FEW HUNDRED FEET, VEHICLE STALLED ALMOST RAN INTO A GROUP OF PARKED VEHICLES. BARELY STARTED AGAIN. MADE IT TO THE HIGHWAY TO GO HOME AND WHILE DRIVING AT JUST UNDER 55MPH LIMIT VEHICLE STALLS IN THE PASSING LANE. ALMOST CAUSED A WRECK WITH SEVERAL VEHICLES INCLUDING A SEMI. DIDN'T START FOR A FEW MINUTES. VEHICLE STUTTERED TO START AND BARELY TURNED OVER. AFTER IT STARTED I SAT THERE AND WATCHED THE TACHOMETER, IT WOULD, WITHOUT MYSELF TOUCHING OR DOING ANYTHING, IDLE THEN JUMP A LITTLE AND DIP A LITTLE OVER AND OVER. THERE SEEMS TO BE NO CERTAIN SITUATION OR REASONING FOR WHEN, WHERE OR WHY IT WOULD STALL, COMPLETE RANDOMNESS! HIGHWAY DRIVING, SLOW STOP AND GO...

OUR WATER PUMP ON OUR 2008 FORD EDGE LIMITED, SUFFERED A BREAKDOWN WHICH ALLOWED WATER TO ENTER THE ENGINE INTERNALLY. THE WATER MIXED WITH THE OIL INSIDE THE ENGINE CAUSING A COMPLETE ENGINE FAILURE. WE WERE INFORMED IT WOULD COST $7,800.00 TO INSTALL A NEW FORD ENGINE. AT THE TIME OF ENGINE FAILURE THE ODOMETER SHOWED 105,000 MILES. THE CAR WAS BEING DRIVEN IN TOWN AT A SPEED OF 35 MILES PER HOUR IN THE MONTH OF AUGUST, 2019. I NOTICED THE AIR CONDITIONING WAS BLOWING HOT AIR SO I GLANCED AT THE DASHBOARD TO SEE THE ENGINE TEMPERATURE GAUGE REGISTERING H (HOT). AT NO TIME DID THE "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT COME ON TO ALERT ME OF AN ENGINE PROBLEM. I HAD THE EDGE TOWED TO A GARAGE WHERE WE WERE SHOWN A BILL FOR $7,800 TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE ENGINE DUE TO THE WATER PUMP BURSTING AND LEAKING WATER...

THE WRENCH LIGHT WILL COME ON WHEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE, AND POWER IS LOST. MY CAR WILL SLOW DOWN TO AROUND 10-20 MPH NO MATTER WHERE I AM OR HOW FAST I AM GOING. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BY FORD. I HAVE BEEN ON I-10 WITH MY HUSBAND AND TODDLER AND THE VEHICLE GOES INTO THIS "LIMP MODE" AT 80 MPH! I AM SO TERRIFIED TO DRIVE A VEHICLE THAT I HAVE TO PAY EVERY MONTH FOR. MECHANICS THAT HAVE LOOKED AT THE CAR HAVE NO DEFINITIVE ANSWER TO PROBLEM, THEY SUGGESTED THAT THE THROTTLE BODY BE CLEANED. WE DID THAT AND IT WAS NO HELP. THE VEHICLE LEFT ME AND MY SON STRANDED THIS MORNING ON THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY BECAUSE I COULD NOT GET IT OUT OF THE "SAFETY LIMP MODE". USUALLY, I CAN PULL OVER, PARK, AND SHUT THE...

WHILE DRIVING THE FORD EDGE HAS A COMPLETE LOSS OF POWER. THE WRENCH LIGHT AND BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON. THE POWER STEERING WOULD NOT WORK AND I HAD TO COAST TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I TURNED OFF THE ENGINE AND WAS ABLE TO RESTART IT. THE MECHANIC WAS NOT ABLE TO REPLICATE IT. IT HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES ALMOST CAUSING A WRECK EACH TIME WHILE DRIVING IN THE CITY.

THE CAR CLUNKS AND HAS A WRENCH. WHEN I PUT INTO REVERSE IT JUMP A VERY MINIMUM ACCELERATION. I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE IT. I HAD TO TOW THE CAR. THE MECHANIC COULDN'T FIND THE PROBLEM. HE SAID HE CLEARED UP THE COMPUTER AND IT WAS FINE. THEN I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND IT HAPPENED AGAIN. NO ACCELERATION. WHY FORD HASN'T MADE THIS INTO A SAFETY RECALL. I DID MY INVESTIGATION AND I BELIEVE IT HAS TO DO WITH THE TRANSMISSION SENSORS. PLEASE HELP ME.

DRIVING TO WORK I NOTICED THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE GOT ALL THE WAY UP AND I PULLED OVER, SINCE I WAS DRIVING ON THE I-41 NORTHBOUND HIGHWAY, I DECIDED TO GET OFF THE HIGHWAY SINCE I WAS PRETTY CLOSE TO THE EXIT. I CALLED MY HUSBAND FOR ASSISTANCE AND RIGHT AFTER HE DROPPED ME OFF AT WORK, HE CHECKED THE SUV AND NOTICED THE COOLANT RESERVOIR WAS VERY LOW. WE TOOK IT TO THE MECHANIC AND AFTER THE INSPECTION HIS DIAGNOSTIC WAS A 'WATER PUMP FAILURE ' SINCE THE WATER PUMP IS LOCATED 'INSIDE ' THE ENGINE ITSELF, IT WILL BE A 'VERY EXPENSIVE FIX' SO THE MECHANIC RECOMMENDED TO REPORT IT SINCE IT MAY BE FOMOCO'S FAULTY. I COMPLETELY AGREED WITH HEM, BECAUSE THE FACT THEY INSTALLED THE WATER PUMP INSIDE THE ENGINE, DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE, BECAUSE JUST A INEXPENSIVE PUMP AFFECTED THE WHOLE ENGINE AND TO REPAIR IT,...

SEVERAL TIMES NOW, MY CAR WILL NOT ACCELERATE. THIS HAS HAPPENED WHILE GOING 40, 60, 70MPH ON THE HWY. I HAVE HAD TO INSTANTLY PUT HAZARDS ON AND TRY TO PULL OVER WHICH ISN'T ALWAYS EASY DURING RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC. WHEN THIS HAPPENS, I PULL OFF, AND THEN MY CAR LURCHES FORWARD AND SHIFTS GEARS AND THEN CAN ACCELERATE. THIS HAS ALSO HAPPENED WHEN I HAVE BEEN AT A COMPLETE STOP, AND TRIED TO ACCELERATE. WHEN YOU CANNOT MOVE FORWARD, OR CRAWL AT SPEEDS UNDER 5MPH, BUT YOUR RPMS ARE REACHING 7, THERE IS SOMETHING SERIOUSLY WRONG. I HAVE TAKEN IT IN A FEW TIMES ONLY TO BE TOLD THEY CANNOT FIND OR RECREATE THE ISSUES, SO THEY SEND ME ON MY WAY. IT SOUNDS AS IF MANY OTHERS ARE HAVING THE EXACT SAME ISSUES.

TWO WEEKS AGO I WAS DRIVING ON NJ ROUT 9 WHEN THE TRANSMISSION SOUNDED LIKE IT WAS IN NEUTRAL BUT IT WASN'T. ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS WERE ON AND WAS ABLE TO DRIVE TO A SAFE AREA AND STOP. I DID NOT TURN THE CAR OFF AND EXITED THE CAR AND TRIED TO OPEN THE REAR DOORS AND HATCH BUT COULDN'T. NEXT I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND WAITED A FEW MINUTES BEFORE STARTING IT.

THE CAR FEELS LIKE IT IS TRYING REALLY HARD TO STAY IN GEAR OR CHANGE GEARS.THIS WILL HAPPEN ON THE HIGHWAY GOING 60MPH AS WELL AS LOCAL ROADS AT LOWER SPEEDS. I WILL HAVE TO PUT MY HAZARDS ON AND PULL OVER ON THE SIDE. WE FIGURED OUT THAT IF YOU DISCONNECT THE CABLES ON THE BATTERY FOR A FEW MINUTES THEN RECONNECT THE CAR WILL THEN RUN AGAIN OK. THIS IS A SERIOUS HAZARD. I HAVE ALMOST BEEN HIT SEVERAL TIMES ON THE HIGHWAY DUE TO THIS ISSUE AND HAVE BEEN HIT FROM BEHIND GETTING ON...
