2008 FORD EDGE Power Train Problems

Rear driveshaft support failed while driving. A lot of smoke, noise and very bad vibration. Was traveling at a low speed(25mph). If the driveshaft had come apart, it could have easily caused damage to the body and its passengers. It also could've struck and damaged any vehicles near by. After speaking to the Ford dealer, they dais that it was a fairly common occurrence, which surprised me. Thanks for reading my complaint.

The transmission randomly gets stuck in 1st gear and won’t shift beyond that. The RPMs rev up real high and the only way to fix it is to pull off the road and turn the car off and back on. The transmission also bumps really hard shifting sometimes or revs up real high before shifting with a big thud. The dealership says they can’t diagnose it if it’s not doing it when I bring it in. They said the same thing about my alternator when it kept going out on me driving. They never could get it to mess up when they had it.

Vehicle Hard Steering when drove Ford-from lot- Always something wrong with brakes-wheel bearings- wheels- Alignment Electrical Lightning for entire vehicle- Sunroof also included in malfunctions *Main SAFETY concern Front end / tranny Grinding amongst other noises

The contact owns a 2008 Ford Edge. The contact stated while approaching a stop sign, the vehicle lost motive power and stalled without warning. The contact was able to pull over on the side of the road, but the vehicle would not restart. The vehicle was towed to the dealer for diagnostic testing, but no failure was found. The contact stated that the failure persisted. On another occasion, while driving, the vehicle experienced hard shifting to 2nd gear and a delay in upshifting to the next gear. The manufacturer was contacted and stated there was no recall on the vehicle for the failure and advised the contact to file a complaint with the NHTSA Hotline. The approximate failure mileage was 120,000.

Transmission slipping like all the other complaints, should be a recall for sure after looking through all the same issues in this year of Ford Edge around 78K miles.

I own a 2008 Ford edge awd limited and yesterday while getting on the interstate my vehicle made a loud clunking sound I immediately pulled over I had it towed to the house and once it was evaluated we discovered that there was a crack in the transmission housing there was no prior signs of the problem when we started the vehicle and put it in reverse it wouldn't move killed the vehicle started back and put it in reverse and it moved but I will have to change the housing if not the whole transmission

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...

TRANSMISSION NOT SHIFTING PROPERLY HESITATED IN SHIFTING

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY THE SPEEDOMETER DROPS TO 0, WRENCH LIGHT AND AIRBAG LIGHT TURNS ON. CAR LOSSES POWER AND KEEPS RUNNING. TO MOVE AT ALL REQUIRES REVING THE ENGINE TO VERY HIGH RPMS

ON JUNE 3, 2020 MY 2008 FORD EDGE EXPERIENCED SUDDEN TRANSMISSION FAILURE WHILE DRIVING ON A BUSY 5 LANE HIGHWAY WHICH COULD HAVE RESULTED IN INJURY OR DEATH. THANKFULLY, MY WIFE WAS ABLE TO GET IT OFF THE ROADWAY. IT WAS THEN TOWED TO A REPAIR SHOP. THERE WERE NO WARNING SIGNS LEADING UP TO THIS TRANSMISSION FAILURE. THE CAR WAS WELL MAINTAINED PRIMARILY THROUGH A FORD DEALERSHIP AND CERTIFIED MECHANICS. THE VEHICLE HAS ONLY 96000 ORIGINAL MILES. AFTER A SHORT INTERNET SEARCH, IT BECAME PAINFULLY OBVIOUS THAT THIS WAS A WELL DOCUMENTED SHORTCOMING OF THE 2008 FORD EDGE. I CONTACTED THE LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP WHO VERIFIED THAT THEY WERE AWARE OF THIS ISSUE WITH THE 2008 EDGE, "BUT FORD HAS NOT RECALLED IT YET". I THEN CONTACTED FORD MOTOR COMPANY ON JUNE 5TH WHO ALSO ADMITTED THAT THEY WERE AWARE OF SUDDEN TRANSMISSION FAILURE IN THE 2008 EDGE BUT...

THE MECHANIC SAID THE TRANSMISSION AND TRANSFER CASE EXPLODED COSTING ME OVER $2,000 IN REPAIRS. THE AC QUIT COSTING AROUND $700 IN REPAIRS. THE CD/RADIO HAS AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE THAT HAS NOT BEEN FIXED BECAUSE I CAN'T AFFORD IT ESTIMATED AT ANOTHER$700 IN REPAIRS. *TR

RIGHT AFTER I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE, I NOTICED THAT IT HAD A BAD JERK, AND CHUGGING IN THE TRANSMISSION. WITH THE OVERDRIVE "OFF", IT KEEPS THE RPM'S ABOVE 2000, AND PREVENTS IT FROM CHUGGING AND JERKING IN THE TRANSMISSION. WITH THE OVERDRIVE ON IT GEARS DOWN EXTREMELY LOW AFTER GOING DOWN TO 2000 RPM'S, AND LOSSES A LOT OF POWER. WHEN PRESSING DOWN THE GAS PEDAL, IT CHUGS AND JERKS SEVERELY. I HAVE TO LET OFF THE GAS AND THEN REAPPLY THE GAS TO STOP IT FROM JERKING. ALSO, THE POWER STEERING POPS AND MAKES NOISES. I GOT IN THE CAR TODAY AND HAD NO BRAKE POWER AT ALL. THEN HAD NO BRAKES UNLESS I PUSHED THE BRAKE PEDAL DOWN WITH EXTREME FORCE. AND IT WAS STILL EXTREMELY HARD TO STOP MY VEHICLE. UPON SEARCHING ONLINE, I AM FINDING THAT THESE ARE VERY COMMON ISSUES WITH THE 2008 FORD EDGE...

SPEEDOMETER DROPPED TO 0 WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON CAR HAD ALMOST NO POWER MADE LOUD NOISE THEN AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AND TIRE PRESSURE WARNING.

WHEN DRIVING THIS THE TOOL LIGHT ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON LOOSE THE ODOMETER AND IT DOESN'T WANT TO MOVE ONCE YOU STOP. THEN WHEN YOU CAN GET IT TO MOVE THE TRANSMISSION CLUNKS HARD . I ALSO LOST THE MILEAGE ON THE DASH AS WELL. AND THEN WHEN TRYING TO PULL INTO SOMEWHERE THAT HAS A SLIGHT HILL THE CAR WON'T GO FORWARD. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR A COUPLE WEEKS

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND MY CAR JUST STOPPED. ODO ERROR CAME ON. PRESSED GAS PEDAL AND NOTHING. I COULD HAVE BEEN IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. AT DEALERSHIP NOW.

BATTERY LIGHT STAYED ON DURING A 4.5 HOUR TRIP. AFTER REACHING THE END OF THE TRIP, THE BATTERY CABLES WERE FOUND TO BE CORRODED. NOTICED THETERMINAL PROTECTOR HAS MELTED. USED DISTILLED WATER TO FILL THE ACID LEVEL IN THE BATTERY, SOME WAS SPILLED ON THE POSITIVE BATTERY CABLE CONNECTION(FROM BATTERY TO POWER OF UNDERHOOD FUSE BOX), IT SIZZLED FROM BEING HOT! AFTER FILLING THE BATTERY, THE BATT. LIGHT STAYED OFF FOR ANOTHER 3 HOURS OF TRIP, AND LIT UP AGAIN. HAD THE BATTERY TESTED, BATTERY WAS FOUND TO BE DEFECTIVE. R&R THE BATTERY, BATTERY LIGHT IS ON AGAIN. NO DRIVEABILITY ISSUES, JUST CONCERNED ABOUT, WHAT IS CAUSING RESISTANCE IN ELECTRICAL CHARGING SYSTEM, AND POSSIBLE "FIRE"!

WHEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE IT LOSES THE ABILITY TO ACCELERATE AND ONLY ALLOWS ME TO TRY TO PULL OFF THE ROAD TO A SAFE PLACE WITH THE MOMENTUM OF THE VEHICLE BEFORE IT LOST POWER. IF I AM NOT AT A PLACE WHERE I CAN IMMEDIATELY PULL OFF SAFELY I AM STRANDED IN TRAFFIC. WHEN THIS OCCURS I AM ABLE TO TURN OFF MY VEHICLE FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME AND WHEN I RESTART IT, THE VEHICLE RESUMES NORMAL OPERATION UNTIL THIS HAPPENS AGAIN. IT HAS HAPPENED IN VARIOUS WEATHER CONDITIONS AND AT VARIOUS SPEEDS. WHEN THE ACCELERATION IS LOST THE POWERTRAIN FAULT LIGHT COMES ON.

2008 FORD EDGE SEL....WITH 6F50 TRANSMISSION....165000 MILES.... VEHICLE SHIFTS EXTERNALLY HARD FROM 3RD TO 4TH GEAR WITH A HARD JERK AND LOAD KLUNK, SO MUCH SO THAT IT HAS STARTED CAUSING ME NECK PROBLEMS FROM TENSING UP IN ANTICIPATION OF THE JERK. ALSO 2 TWICE UP GOING FROM PARK TO DRIVE, HAD AN EXTREMLY LOAD NOISE IN TRANSMISSION THAT SHOOK THE ENTIRE VEHICLE AND AS I ATTEMPTED TO ACCELERATE THE RPM ROSE BUT THE CAR BARELY EASED FORWARD AND THE TRANSMISSION SOUNDED AS THOUGH IT WERE IN A BIND. I THEN PUT IT IN PARK, TURNED THE IGNITION OFF, PULLED OUT THE KEY, OPEN AND SHUT THE DOOR AS TO PRETEND I WAS EXITING, THEN PUT KEY BACK INTO IGNITION, STARTED THE CAR, PUT IT IN GEAR (NO PROBLEM) AND ACCELERATED AS NORMAL (NO PROBLEM), EXCEPT WHEN IT SHIFTED FROM 3RD TO 4TH WHICH IS AROUND 25MPH. I HAVE NOT...

THE INFORMATION PANEL LIT UP WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, THE WRENCH, THE AIRBAG LIGHT, THE TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT AND DISPLAYED A MESSAGE: ODO DATA ERROR. THE ODOMETER/SPEEDOMETER FELL TO ZERO. I STOPPED AT A LIGHT AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE NORMALLY, THEN A BIG CLUNKING SOUND AND FINALLY MOVED FORWARD. AFTER A NIGHT IN THE GARAGE, THE VEHICLE DROVE NORMALLY THE NEXT DAY AND ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS WERE OFF. THEN ONE DAY IT HAPPENED AGAIN. TOOK IT TO A FORD DEALERSHIP. THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM AND THEREFORE COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING TO FIX. SINCE THAT TIME, IT HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES AND EACH TIME I PULL OFF THE ROAD, TURN THE ENGINE OFF, WAIT A LITTLE BIT, START THE ENGINE AGAIN AND PULL AWAY. THERE IS ALWAYS THE CLUNKING AND JERKING INTO GEAR. AFTER REVIEWING A FEW FORD ONLINE FORMS, I SEE THAT THIS...

START ENGINE, MOVE TRANSMISSION INTO REVERSE, TRANSMISSION CLUNKS LOUDLY. WHEN TRANSMISSION IS MOVED TO DRIVE, ENGINE REVS HIGH, BARELY MOVES FORWARD, SPEEDOMETER STUCK AT ZERO DESPITE MOVING UP TO 20MPH. ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON, AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON.

DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND THE WRENCH LIGHT COMES ON, SPEEDOMETER STOPS WORKING AND THE VEHICLE LOSES POWER. I CAN ALSO SMELL A BURNING SMELL. ONCE I HAVE COME TO A STOP, THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTS VERY HARD LIKE SOMEONE HAS HIT THE VEHICLE. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES, INCLUDING A COUPLE OF TIMES WHEN I PULLED INTO TRAFFIC AND THE VEHICLE LOST POWER, COMING VERY CLOSE TO CAUSING AN ACCIDENT WITH ONCOMING TRAFFIC. VERY DANGEROUS AND I AM VERY APPREHENSIVE ABOUT DRIVING THE CAR DUE TO MY FAMILY'S SAFETY.

"TAKATA RECALL" I WAS DRIVING MY CHILD TO SCHOOL IN HIGHWAY TRAFFIC, SPEEDS OF 55 MPH. THE CAR MILEAGE INDICATORS WENT BLANK, A WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON AND ALL POWER TO CAR WAS LOST DURING TURNING A CURVE ON HIGHWAY.VEHICLE STARTED MAKING VERY LOUD POPPING NOISE AND JERKING THE CAR. TURNED CAR OFF AFTER COMING TO A STOP, RESTARTED CAR, NO WARNING LIGHTS, EVERYTHING WAS NORMAL EXCEPT, WHEN STARTING CAR, IT MADE VERY LOUD NOISE AS IT WAS STARTED, THEN AS I PLACED IN DRIVE OR REVERSE IT MOVED THE VEHICLE JERKING AN LOUD POPPING NOISE. THE ENTIRE MOTOR MOVED SIDEWAYS WHEN PLACED IN GEAR AN HOOD UP. ALSO NOW IT NO LONGER WORKS IN LOW GEAR. ONCE PLACED ON MACHINE IT GAVE CODE PO720-722

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...

2008 FORD EDGE WHILE DRIVING ON CITY STREETS ALL OF A SUDDEN THE WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON, AIRBAG LIGHT, THE MILEAGE ODOMETER BLANKED OUT AND THE SPEEDOMETER STOPPED WORKING THERE WAS A LOSS OF POWER. THE TRANSMISSION MAKES A HUGE CLUNKING SOUND AND JERKS INTO GEAR SHIFTING INTO DRIVE FROM PARK AND REVERSE

WHILE NORMALLY DRIVING, THE "WRENCH" LIGHT WILL COME ON AND THE VEHICLE GOES INTO A LOW-POWER "LIMP MODE". SO I PULL OVER IMMEDIATELY, AND PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK, SHUT IT OFF, AND REMOVE THE KEY. I SIT WITH IT POWERED OFF FOR ABOUT A 10 SECOND COUNT, AND RESTART THE ENGINE. THE WRENCH LIGHT GOES OFF, AND I CAN DRIVE NORMALLY UNTIL IT HAPPENS AGAIN.

VEHICLE IN MOTION ON CITY ROAD WHEN VEHICLE ALL OF A SUDDEN MAKES LOUD/HARD CLANK NOISE AND IMMEDIATELY LOSES POWER - ALMOST LIKE IT STARTED TOWING A TRAILER! LOSS OF POWER, WRENCH LIGHT, TPS LIGHT, AIRBAG LIGHT ALL COME ON, SPEEDOMETER STOPS WORKING. PULLED OVER, LOUD/HARD CLANK SOUND WITH EVERY GEAR CHANGE P-2. VEHICLE HAD DISPLAYED NO ISSUES PRIOR TO THIS. DROPPED VEHICLE OFF AT MECHANIC, WHEN HE LOOKED AT IT NEXT MORNING, VEHICLE IS RUNNING PERFECT. TODAY IS A FRIDAY, I WAS SUPPOSED TO GO OUT OF TOWN (VIA I75) BUT I AM GOING TO STAY LOCAL AS IT DOES NOT FEEL SAFE TO DRIVE ON THE HIGHWAY. I AM GREATLY CONCERNED ABOUT WHAT APPEARS TO BE A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE WITH THIS CAR. ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS SEARCH - THERE ARE MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE TO BE FOUND ALL OVER THE INTERNET WITH NO...

DRIVING, GOING UP A HILL, THE CAR STOPPED ACCELERATING AND LOST POWER GOING UP. I ALMOST GOT INTO AN ACCIDENT. THE CAR DOESN'T ACCELERATE AND IT HAS ALL THE FLUIDS AND CHANGED OF OILS. 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.

I OWN A 2008 FORD EDGE LIMITED I AM HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AS SOME PEOPLE ON HERE ARE WITH THE WRENCH 🔧 LIGHT ALSO A AIR BAG LIGHT COMES ON AND I HAVE ALMOST HAD AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE THE CAR SPEEDOMETER STOPS WORKING AND THE CAR SHIFTS SUPER HARD IT SEEMS TO BE HAPPENING MORE FREQUENTLY I DID MY RESEARCH ON FORDS WEBSITE FOR FINDING OUT THE PROBLEM AND IT'S A GLITCH THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN WHEN TRYING TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT FROM OCCURRING ALSO YOU CAN'T EVEN VIEW THE SPEED I THINK THIS SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED AND RECALLED BECAUSE I IT CAN CREATE A UNSAFE ENVIRONMENT TO NOT ONLY MY VEHICLE BUT OTHERS AS WELL.

TRANSMISSION SLIPPING AND DOWNSHIFTING HARD - AROUND 80,000K I STARTED TO NOTICE THAT THE TRANSMISSION WOULD BANG WHEN I PUT IT IN REVERSE. AFTER THAT, OTHER ISSUES STARTED HAPPENING - WHILE PRESSING THE GAS PEDAL, VEHICLE WOULD NOT SWITCH TO A HIGHER GEAR. I'D HAVE TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP (IN TRAFFIC!), PUT IT IN PARK, THEN TRY TO DRIVE AGAIN. PERIODS WHEN THE VEHICLE WOULD GET TO SPEED THEN SLIP. TRANSMISSION WOULD BANG LIKE I WAS BEING REAR-ENDED. CHANGED THE VALVE BODY, TSS, AND OSS SENSORS. THAT WORKED FOR A WHILE BUT NOW IT'S ACTING UP AGAIN. DOWNSHIFTS SO HARD AND BANGS WHILE I'M DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS. I'M AFRAID IT'S GOING TO GO COMPLETELY WHILE I'M DRIVING. THERE WAS NO PRIOR DAMAGE TO VEHICLE TO CAUSE THIS MALFUNCTION.

ON 4/26/19 THE FORD EDGE WAS SETTING IN PARK LETTING MY SISTERS GET OUT THE FORD EDGE WAS PUT IN DRIVE IT WOULD NOT MOVE PUT IT IN REVERSE IT WOULD NOT MOVE, TURN IT OFF AND ON AGAIN IT STARTED TO WORK FINE.I DO NOT WHAT IS GOING ON IT

WHILE DRIVING IN THE CITY IT JUMP FROM FIRST TO SECOND GEAR WITH A HARD BOOM. DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WHILE GOING UP A HILL JUMP OUT OF GEAR AND WILL NOT PULL I PULL OVER TO THE SHOULDER. TO GET THE CAR TO FUNCTION AGAIN I HAVE TO TURN THE FORD EDGE OFF TURN IT BACK ON THIS IS NOT GOOD. WHAT CAN BE DONE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. *TR

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, THE ODOMETER SUDDENLY DROPS TO ZERO WHILE STILL MOVING AT THE POSTED SPEED LIMIT. THE WRENCH SYMBOL WARNING LIGHT IN THE DASH COMES ON, AS WELL AS THE AIRBAG LIGHT. THE MILEAGE IS THEN CLEARED, AND THE DASH READS "ODO ERROR". PULLED OVER, TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE AND REMOVED THE KEY FROM THE IGNITION. GO TO TURN THE VEHICLE BACK ON, CAR STARTS NORMALLY, ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS ARE CLEARED. PUT THE VEHICLE INTO REVERSE, AND HEAR AND FEEL A LOUD "CLUNK" AS THE VEHICLE SHIFTS, AND AM ABLE TO BACK UP NORMALLY. WHEN SHIFTING BACK INTO DRIVE, THE RPMS JUMP UP, THE CAR SHIFTS AND MAKES THE LOUD "CLUNK", AND WHEN PUSHING THE ACCELERATOR, THE VEHICLE BARELY MOVES. IT WILL OCCASIONALLY COME BACK AND THE VEHICLE WILL RETURN TO IT'S NORMAL RUNNING STATE, BUT THEN IT WILL EVENTUALLY RETURNED TO THE DEFECTIVE STATE. NO...

AS EVERYONE ELSE WITH 08 EDGE THE TRANSMISSION LOSES POWER. ENTERING HWY AND PRESS ON GAS, NO PICKUP JUST STALLS OUT. REPORTED TO ENERGY COUNTRY FORD ON 3 DIFFERENT VISITS, IN PORT ARTHUR, TX AND OF COURSE THEY SAID NOTHING WRONG. ALSO, LOUD CLUNK FROM PARK TO REVERSE OR DRIVE. PAINT ALSO CHIPS/PEELS ON THIS CREAM COLORED VEHICLE. HAVE SEEN OTHER VEHICLES THIS COLOR ON THE ROAD AND THE PAINT AROUND DOOR AREAS PEELING. ONLY 65K MILES AND WELL MAINTAINED. WITH SO MANY REPORTS OF THIS ISSUE FORD SURELY WOULD RECALL THE 08 EDGE TRANSMISSION LIKE THEY HAVE ON THE TRUCKS.

I WAS DRIVING IN A CITY STREET AND MY CAR SUDDENLY HAD VERY DECREASED POWER AND THE WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON. I DROVE UNTIL I FOUND A PLACE TO SAFELY PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. WHEN I TURN THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON THE LIGHT TURNS OFF.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH, THE CHECK ENGINE AND AIR BAG WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. ALSO, THE ODOMETER BECAME INOPERABLE AND THE VEHICLE FAILED TO MAINTAIN FORWARD MOMENTUM. THE VEHICLE WAS SAFELY GUIDED OFF OF THE ROADWAY, THE IGNITION WAS PLACED IN THE OFF POSITION, AND THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED; HOWEVER, IT FAILED TO ACCELERATE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. KRAUSE FAMILY FORD OF WOODSTOCK (LOCATED AT 195 WOODSTOCK PKWY, WOODSTOCK, GA 30188, (770) 592-8873) AND THE MANUFACTURER WERE CONTACTED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 159,000. *TT VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED.*JB

WHILE DRIVING THROUGH AN INTERSECTION AT APPROX 40 MPH TRANSMISSION SHUTTER AND LOCKED THE WHEELS UP. LUCKILY THE TRAFFIC AROUND ME WAS ABLE TO DODGE ME WITHOUT INCIDENT. I SHUT IT OFF AND RESTARTED PUT INTO 1ST GEAR AND PULLED OFF TO SIDE OF ROAD. THERE WAS BURNT GEAR OIL SMELL COMING FROM UNDER THE SUV. NOW IT COMES AND GOES TRANS SLIPPING AND PTU OVERHEATING.

BOUGHT CAR USED JULY 2017 FROM A DEALER. HAS PROBLEMS STARTING A FEW WEEKS AFTER PURCHASE OF NOT WANTING TO MOVE. IF IN HEAVY TRAFFIC DOING 5-10 MPH ON EXPRESSWAY, WHEN TRAFFIC FINALLY BREAKS CAR WILL NOT MOVE, RPM'S GO UP BUT TRANSMISSION IS STILL STUCK. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT REALLY NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AS I AM SEEING A LOT OF COMPLAINTS FOR THE SAME THING. TOOK MY CAR INTO THE DEALER DUE TO EXTENDED WARRANTY. THEY WERE ABLE TO REPLICATE WHAT I TOLD THEM. THIS IS AN INTERNAL PART FAILURE BUT I AM STILL WAITING TO HEAR IF MY EXTENDED WARRANTY WILL BE PAYING FOR THIS. UNACCEPTABLE THAT SO MANY HAVE THIS SERIOUS ISSUE WHICH COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT IF CAR DOES NOT MOVE ON A BUSY HIGHWAY OR AT A STOP LIGHT. THIS HAS HAPPENED IN HEAVY STOP/GO TRAFFIC, FROM A STOP LIGHT WHEN LIGHT...

WHILE YOU START TO DRIVE FROM A STOP LIGHT OR STOP SIGN, THE CAR WILL NOT SHIFT OUT OF LOW AND THE ENGINE WILL REV UP AND CAR WILL BE AT A CRAWL WHILE TRYING TO CROSS THE INTERSECTION SAFELY. WHILE BACKING UP, THE TRANSMISSION SEEMS TO SLAM IT INTO REVERSE WHERE YOU HEAR A LOUD BANG AND THE CAR SUDDENLY JERKS AS IF YOU HAVE HIT SOMETHING. WHILE ACCELERATING TO GET ONTO THE FREEWAY, THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTS INTO LOW GEAR, STAYS IN LOW AND CAN'T GET UP THE SPEED TO GET ON THE FREEWAY SAFELY. THE PROBLEM OCCURRED AT FIRST SPORADICALLY, THEN WHEN I WOULD GET HOME, TURN OFF THE CAR AND THEN WAIT FOR A FEW MINUTES, IT WAS AS IF THE COMPUTER HAD RESET AND IT WORKED FIND. AS TIME WENT ON, IT OCCURRED MORE FREQUENTLY AND TURNING OFF THE VEHICLE WAS NOT AN OPTION. I HAVE...

DRIVING AND OUT OF NO WHERE, RECEIVE AN ERROR MESSAGE THAT SAYS "ODO DATA ERROR", THE CAR HOLDS THE CURRENT SPEED BUT IT'S VERY APPARENT THAT SOMETHING IS OFF AS THE CAR IS NOW MAKING A HUMMING/AIR PRESSURE SOUND (SPEEDOMETER & TACHOMETER STOPS WORKING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS) WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE WRENCH, AIRBAG, ABS, STABILITY CONTROL INDICATOR AND ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATE. WITHIN 5 MINUTES NEW ERROR APPEARS (TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR FAULT). ONCE YOU HAVE PRESSED THE BRAKES AND COME TO A COMPLETE STOP THE CAR IS EXTREMELY HESITANT TO ACCELERATE EVEN WITH THE GAS PEDAL PUSHED COMPLETELY TO THE FLOOR IT DOESN'T GAIN POWER UNTIL IT HAS ROLLED ABOUT 15-20 FEET AND AT THAT POINT THERE IS A EXTREMELY LOUD BANG WHICH MAKES YOU THINK THE ENTIRE UNDERBELLY OF THE CAR HAS FALLEN OUT. AT THAT POINT IT REGAINS SPEED AGAIN, BUT IF YOU STOP IT DOES THE SAME THING...

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. I AM VERY NERVOUS THAT MY LUCK IN PULLING OFF OUT OF HARMS WAY WILL...

THE TRANSMISSION STARTS SLIPPING WITH NO WARNING AND CAR WON'T GO ABOVE 5MPH UNTIL YOU STOP TURN CAR OFF AND WAIT ABOUT 5 MINUTES AND RESTART CAR THE WORKS FINE FOR AWHILE THEN STARTS AGAIN

ONE WEEK PRIOR TO EVENT-THE WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON WHILE STARTING CAR. I TURNED IGNITION OFF AND RE-STARTED CAR IGNITION-DROVE FINE WITHOUT FURTHER INCIDENT UNTIL 1 WEEK LATER: PULLED INTO A 1 MILE DRIVEWAY TO GET TO MY WORK OFFICE SUITE (FLAT ROAD) DRIVING ABOUT 30 MILES, CAR CAME TO A STOP WITHOUT WARNING-AT THAT TIME ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON. I PUT IT INTO PARK/WITH EMERGENCY BRAKE AS IT BEGAN ROLLING NEAR AN OFFICE SUITE-THE STEERING WHEEL WAS FROZEN. HAVE HAD SAME STALLING ISSUES WHILE DRIVING CAR SINCE PURCHASING THE CAR AT 18,000 MILES-EACH TIME TOLD DIFFERENT THINGS ARE CAUSING IT BY DEALER, I.E. TSS/OSS SENSORS, EBT, REFLASH POM WHICH I HAD FIXED. WITH CURREN EVENT- ARE IN PROCESS OF DIAGNOSING IT.

AT 90,000 MILES THE TRANSMISSION STARTED SLIPPING TOOK IT TO THE TRANSMISSION SHOP DID A DIAGNOSTIC CHANGE THE TRANSMISSION OIL AND NOTHING CAME ON THE TEST THEY SAID THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT IT SLIPPED AGAIN IN A COUPLE WEEKS I HAD TO PULL OVER PUT IT IN PARK STARTED AGAIN AND IT WENT. AFTER EIGHT MONTHS OF WORKING GOOD YESTERDAY SAME SLIPPING HAPPENED AGAIN TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC DID A DIAGNOSTIC AND AGAIN CAME OUT OK THIS IS CRAZY. PLANNING A TRIP AND HE SAYS I WOULDN'T TAKE THE CAR BECAUSE YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT WILL HAPPEN THE TRANSMISSION SEEMS TO BE SLIPPING BUT THERE'S NO RECALLS ON IT AND READ A LOT OF COMPLAINTS ON THIS WHY IS THERE NO RECALL?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH COMING OFF A RAMP, THE ENGINE SEIZED AND THE VEHICLE SLOWED DOWN AS THE ENGINE CONTINUED TO REV. THE CONTACT STATED THAT NO FAILURE CODES APPEARED WHEN HE CHECKED ON HIS CODE READER. THE DEALER (LARRY H. MILLER FORD LINCOLN DRAPER, 11442 LONE PEAK PKWY, DRAPER, UT 84020, (801) 590-0561) STATED THAT THE FAILURE MAY BE DUE TO THE TRANSMISSION. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 94,500. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING 10 MPH, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, BUT THE VEHICLE SEIZED. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO ARROTTA'S AUTOMAX AND RV (6623 N DIVISION ST, SPOKANE, WA 99208, 1-509-703-7797), BUT THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DETERMINED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 60,000. *TT *TR

CAR WILL JERK,SLIP,BEAT AND BANG. STOPPED PULLING AT A RED LIGHT. GOT TOWED HOME . TOOK OFF BATTERY CABLE FOR 30MINS . STARTED WORKING AGAIN FOR AWHILE. DOES THIS OFTEN,REPAIR SHOPS HAVE NO CLUE EXCEPT FOR NEW TRANNY.IT WILL ALSO TRY TO PULL FORWARD WHILE IN PARK WHEN YOU HAVE THE OTHER PROBLEMS ALSO. IT HAS DONE THIS WHILE SITTING STILL AND WHILE RUNNING 70 ON THE INTERSTATE.

SPEEDOMETER AND TACHOMETER AT RANDOM SPEEDS QUITS WORKING , LOW TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT, WRENCH LIGHT, AIRBAG LIGHT, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. CONSTANT LOUD CLUNKING SOUND WHEN CHANGING GEARS. THE CAR KICKS BACK AS IF TRANSMISSION IS NOT ENGAGING AND HAS LOSS OF ACCELERATION AND WHEELS ROLL AND WHEN RED LIGHT TURNS GREEN, THE CAR TAKES TIME TO ACCELERATE AND WHEELS START ROLLING AND MAKE A LOUD SOUND.I PULL OVER THE VEHICLE ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD EVERY TIME AND TURN IT OFF, THEN TURN THE VEHICLE ON AGAIN SO IT CAN GO BACK TO NORMAL. USUALLY HAPPENS ON BOTH CITY STREETS OR HIGHWAY AT A RANDOM SPEED BETWEEN 45 MPH AND 60 MPH. 114,000 MILES. I HAVE BEEN HAVING THIS ISSUE SINCE I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE ON FEB, 2018 AND TOOK IT TO MULTIPLE MECHANICS AND ALL OF THEM CLAIMED IT'S EITHER A SPEED SENSOR ISSUE/ TRANSMISSION FAILURE/ ELECTRICAL SYSTEM.

WHEN FIRST STARTED UP IT SOME TIMES TURNS OFF WITH NO WARNING. THEN A CONSTANT TICKING SOUND THEN INTERMITTENTLY WHEN REVERSING THE CAR KICKS BACK AS IF TRANSMISSION IS NOT ENGAGING AND HAS LOSS OF ACCELERATION WHEN MERGING ONTO FREEWAY HAS HESITATION AND ALMOST GOT INTO A WRECK A DRIVING RPM GO UP AND DOWN ERATICLY AND ACCELERATION IS SLUGISH. BRAKES ARE CONSTANLY QUELLING AND THEY DONT NEED REPLACED I JUST BOUGHT THIS CAR 2MONTHS AGO FROM USED CAR LOT BOUGHT EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR 1800.00 BUT DOES NOT TAKE EFFECT FOR 90 DAYS BUT MIGHT NOT BE ABLE TO CLAIM SINCE THIS IS A PROBLEM BEFORE COVERAGE WAS IN EFFECT HAVENT EVEN MADE MY FIRST PAYNENT I WILL HAVE THEM FOR 2YRS CAR HAS 150008 MILES.
