2008 FORD EDGE Unknown Or Other Problems

On November 2, 2021, I purchased a 2008 Ford Edge, Stock #: 12256. Upon reviewing the vehicle’s history recently, I discovered that it had been previously involved in an accident—a fact that was not disclosed to me at the time of sale. Moreover, it has become evident that the odometer was tampered with, and the mileage was misrepresented. These facts constitute material misrepresentation and odometer fraud under both state and federal law. According to the Carfax report, which was not provided to me at the time of sale, the mileage history for the vehicle is as follows: 192,195 miles recorded in 2020 164,208 miles recorded in 2021 161,269 miles recorded in 2022 163,087 miles at the time of purchase in 2021 This inconsistent and decreasing mileage history indicates that the odometer was rolled back. In addition, the emissions documentation lists testing in December, even though I took ownership of the...

The locked door emblem sporadically comes on and stays on. It makes my interior lights stay on. It runs my battery down. The back passenger side door was opened by a rider and the lock all doors button had been engaged. The red light was on to show doors were not locked. This has been an ongoing issue for several months now. I have an appointment at Ford garage 09/13/22.

We were driving down the road about 70 mph when the sunroof exploded. No one in car saw any rocks or derby to cause this to happen.

speed shift senser and caused the car to make the tranny feels like its going to drop on the ground and they should recalled the car to fix it right its dangerious to drive it like that so buyer beware and its a history of tranny issues on all and so im going to have to pay a dealer to fix it and hope this info helps

The contact owns a 2008 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the brake pedal went to the floorboard while pumping the brake pedal. The dealer was made aware of the failure but informed the contact that there was no recall associated with the VIN. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 148,032.

There seems to be exhaust leaking into my vehicle. It isn’t a constant issue, but a frequent issue. At times I get an overwhelming exhaust smell inside of my car forcing me to roll all the windows down. It started over the last few months. There have not been any inspections on the vehicle since the issue has begun. The only odd light that come on in my vehicle is the oil light randomly clicks on and off at times, but I don’t know if that is related to the issue.

My car has stalled and loss all power numerous times.

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...

MY AIR BAG AND WRENCH LIGHT COME ON AT SAME TIME MY DASH GOES BLANK AND I LOOSE ALL POWER IT HAS HAPPENED MANY TIMES .

PCM MELTED 2 IGNITION COILS, HAD TO HAVE NEW COMPUTER INSTALLED $3000. ODOMETER WAS 55,000 APPROX.

TRANSMISSION IS BANGING INTO GEAR INCLUDING REVERSE .AT TIMES IS REFUSES TO MOVE FORWARD . FROM A STAND STILL IT BANGS WHEN PLACED IN REVERSE AND BANGS ON UP SHIFTS 2ND AND THIRD GEARS .

WHEN WERE DRIVING THE CAR IT LOSES POWER(THE TRACTION CONTROL JUST COMES ON FOR NO REASON) , WHEN WE GO ABOVE 70 OUR ABS LIGHT COMES ON, OUR BRAKES RANDOMLY JUST START GRINDING THEN THEY WILL STOP, WE HAVE REPLACED THE BREAKS LAST MONTH.

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"!

MELTING AND BURNING OUT BULBS THAT ARE USED FOR TAILLIGHTS AND REAR TURN SIGNAL LIGHTS.

MY SUV LUNGES FORWARD WHILE IN MOTION IT HAS JUST CUT OFF WHILE IN MOTION WITH NO WARNING. I WAS ON MY CITY STREET AND THE VEHICLE JUST CUT OFF AND I HAD TO TURN THE KEY OVER TO RESTART IT. THEN IT HAS STARTED LUNGING WHILE I AM DRIVING IT. WE BOUGHT THE VEHICLE IN DEC. 2017 & WHEN WE COMPLAINED ABOUT THE LUNGING, THE DEALER TOOK IT IN & SAID THAT IT NEEDED A TUNE-UP. WE PAID $300 ABOUT 5 MONTHS AGO AND GOT A TUNEUP AND IT HAS STARTED TO LUNGE AGAIN. IT OCCURS WHILE I AM DRIVING, SOMETIMES ON THE HIGHWAY AND ALSO IN REGULAR CITY TRAFFIC AT ABOUT 35 MPH. RECENTLY IT STARTED CUTTING OFF RANDOMLY. I AM CALLING TO REPORT IF TO FORD & WHERE I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE TOMORROW. THE CUTTING OFF HAS HAPPENED TWICE. ONCE IN DEC. AND THEN TODAY, FEB. 3,...

WATER PUMP WENT OUT CAUSING CAR TO OVERHEAT. OVER VIEW OF VEHICLE DETERMINED THAT WHEN THE PUMP WENT OUT IT MIXED THE ANTIFREEZE AND OIL INSIDE THE ENGINE. INSTEAD OF JUST REPLACING THE WATER PUMP NOW I NEED A WHOLE NEW ENGINE.

TAKATA AIRBAG

TAKATA RECALL

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...

THIS CAR WAS TOTALED AFTER AN ACCIDENT IN 2013 AND WENT TO THE JUNKYARD. PLEASE TAKE THIS OFF OF YOUR RECORDS FOR RECALLS.

THE NHTSA SAYS VEHICLES ARE BEING PRIORITIZED BASED ON THE LIKELIHOOD OF DANGER. FACTORS INCLUDE THE AGE OF YOUR CAR AND WHERE YOU LIVE. THIS IS DUE TO THE FACT THAT THERE'S A LINK BETWEEN MALFUNCTIONING AIR BAGS AND LONG-TERM EXPOSURE TO HEAT AND HIGH HUMIDITY. I AM IN ZONE B BUT I AM A 5 MINUTE DRIVE FROM SOUTH CAROLINA. SO MY QUESTION IS DOES THAT MEAN BECAUSE I AM 5 MILES FROM SOUTH CAROLINA, IS MY FAULTY AIRBAG SAFER THAN THE VEHICLES WITH THE FAULTY TAKATA AIRBAGS IN SC, ZONE A ? I FIRST RECEIVED NOTICE JULY, 2016. NOW FORD HAS RENTED ME A VEHICLE (SARDINE CAN) BECAUSE THEY DON'T KNOW WHEN REPLACEMENT PARTS WILL BE AVAILABLE. THE FACT THAT THEY KNEW LONG BEFORE THIS VEHICLE WAS AVAILABLE FOR SALE THAT THE AIRBAGS WERE UNSAFE, IS TANTAMOUNT TO CRIMINAL NEGLIGENCE. IF THEY AREN'T CALLED TO TASK THEY WILL...

THE CAR REFUSE TO MOVE FORWARD, PLACED IN REVERSE IT MOVES BACKWARD ,THE FORD DEALER IS UNABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM ,CODES DON'T SHOW UP TO HELP IDENTIFY THE PROBLEM. THE DANGER IS IT HAPPENS WHILE YOU ARE DRIVING. ITS BEEN DIAGNOSED AS A TRANSMISSION PROBLEM (VERY EXPENSIVE) BUT THAT'S NOT WHAT IT IS. YOU REPROGRAM IT TEMPORARY, BY TAKING THE POSITIVE BATTERY CABLE LOOSE FOR A FEW SECONDS, THE CAR DRIVES PERFECT UNTIL IT HAPPENS AGAIN, ITS HAPPEN THREE TIMES WITH THIS CAR, I HAVE CALLED THE FORD COOPERATE OFFICE TO REPORT THIS...

I MADE A TURN OFF INTERSTATE INTO A BUSY ROAD, MY VEHICLE JERKED AND LOST ITS ABILITY TO ACCELERATE. LEAVING ME IN A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION WITH CARS FLYING AROUND ME TO AVOID HITTING ME. I MANAGED TO MAKE IT INTO A PARKING LOT. I HAD A FRIEND CHECK THE VEHICLE AND WITH THE HOOD UP HE HAD ME PUT IN REVERSE AND IT LOOKED LIKE THE MOTOR WAS GOING TO JUMP OUT OF THE VEHICLE, SAME HAPPENED IN DRIVE. HE PUT HIS COMPUTER ON AND A CODE FOR THE DRIVE SPEED SENSOR WAS PRESENT. THE CODE WAS CLEARED AND THEN NOTICED THE SPEED AND RPM GAUGES WERE INACCURATE. THIS HAPPENS ON OCCASION. UPON RESEARCH I SEE THIS SENSOR HAS A RECALL ON IT BUT NOT FOR MY YEAR 08 EDGE. PLEASE RECALL ASAP. THIS CAN CAUSE SOME SERIOUSLY BAD ACCIDENT WHEN YOUR VEHICLE LOOSES ITS ABILITY TO ACCELERATE WHEN...

THERE ARE MULTIPLE REPORTS ONLINE OF ISSUES WITH STALLING WHEN THE VEHICLE SWITCHES GEARS, ESPECIALLY WHEN SHIFTING FROM PARK INTO DRIVE OR REVERSE. IT SEEMS TO BE A SENSOR ISSUE FOR EVERYONE, CAN THIS PLEASE BE ADDRESSED? IT IS VERY EXPENSIVE TO HAVE THE LABOR COMPLETED TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE. THANK YOU!

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY GOING 70 MPR AND MY 08 FORD EDGE MADE A NOISE THE ODOMETER WENT TO ZERO AND WENT FROM 70 MPR ON THE HIGHWAY TO 0 IT WOULD NOT GO. I'M SO THANKFUL MY KIDS WEREN'T IN THE CAR AND I WAS ABLE TO GO OFF THE EXIT RAMP BEFORE IT COMPLETELY STOPPED. THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES ALL ON THE HIGHWAY BEFORE OR AFTER WORK. EACH THE TIME CAR WAS TOLLED FROM WORK OR WHERE IT STOPPED RUNNING. TAKEN TO SHOPS TO SEE WHAT'S WRONG THEY CAN FIND ANYTHING. THE LAST EPISODE HAPPENED MOTHERS DAY THE CAR WAS TOLLED TO A FORD DEALERSHIP THEY HAD THE CAR FOR 1 WEEK AND COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING THEY TOLD ME TO TRADE IF OFF ITS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE... SO I'M COMPLETELY BAFFLED WHY A DEALERSHIP WOULD TELL ME TO TRADE THE CAR SO SOMEONE ELSE...

WELL BROUGHT THE CAR BACK IN 2014. WONDERFUL CAR FOR THE LONG TRIPS AROUND USA. WHEN I WAS IN OHIO AND HAD A PROBLEM WITH CAR AS IT SAYS WENCH AND AIRBAGS LIGHTS ON, SPEEDOMETER WAS ON 0 AND RPM WAS ON 2000 SO I PULLED OVER AND SHUT THE CAR DOWN . THEN RESTART THE CAR AND IT WAS FINE SO LATER ON I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY OF WEST VA 77 AND IT DO SAME THING SO I DID THE SAME THING SHUT THE CAR DOWN AND RE START THE [XXX] CAR ALL IS ALRIGHT........SO ONE DAY I WAS TAKING BRO IN LAW HOME IN LOWELL OHIO AND PARKED MY CAR AND AS SOON I WAS LEAVING AND MY CAR WONT GO I TRIED TO SHUT IT DOWN AND SEE IF IT WORKS BUT NOPE. I CALLED TO TOWING COMPANY TO GET THE [XXX] CAR TO FORD DEALER...

FOR NO PARTICULAR REASON MY EDGE DECELERATES TO TEN MILES AN HOUR WHILE THE TACH READS 3RPMS IT HAS HAPPENED ON ALL TYPES OF ROADS AND IN TRAFFIC ALSO. THE TRANNY FLUID IS ALWAYS FINE. NO CODES ON DASH EITHER. I HAVE MY GAS PEDAL TO THE FLOOR AND IT WILL ONLY CREEP AT 10 MPH. WHEN IT REENGAGES IT IS A LARGE HARD JERK FORWARD. ONE EVENING AS I PULLED INTO MY OWN DRIVEWAY IT WOULDN'T MOVE FORWARD AT ALL I SHUT IT OFF WAITED RESTARTED IT AND IT WAS LIKE NOTHING HAPPENED. IT DOES STUDDER A BIT GOING UPHILL ALMOST LIKE IT DOESN'T WANT TO GO THEN IT DOES. FOR A WHILE I THOUGHT IT WAS THINGS LIKE BAD GAS DIRT IN A FUEL LINE LOW FLUIDS BUT IT ISN'T THIS 2008S NEED A RECALL AS MANY OTHER EDGE OWNERS HAVE THE SAME ISSUES. I HAVE MADE AN...

AS EVERYONE ELSE, LOSES ACCELERATION, SHUT OFF AND IT SEEMS FINE LATER. HIGH RPM NO POWER, AS IF IT CANT SHIFT. NO ERROR LIGHTS, SHAKING ALONG WITH SPUTTERING WHEN IT HAS A LOAD.....VERY DANGEROUS AS I DRIVE MAJOR HIGHWAY DAILY. HAS BEEN HAPPENING MORE FREQUENTLY NOW

I AM HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS AS ANOTHER 2008 FORD EDGE DRIVER DESCRIBED ON THE COMPLAINT/INVESTIGATION PAGE. I AM ACTUALLY GOING TO COPY AND PASTE HER COMPLAINT. DRIVING STRAIGHT ON FREEWAY AT 60 MPH AND THE DASH SUDDENLY DISPLAYS ODO ERROR. WRENCH LIGHT, LOW TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT, AND AIR BAG LIGHT COME ON. SPEEDOMETER SHOWS 0 MPH BUT TACH STILL WORKS. AFTER I STOP THE CAR AND TRY TO TAKE OFF AGAIN IT HAS NO PICKUP. TRANSMISSION SEEMS TO BE STUCK IN 5TH GEAR OR OVERDRIVE. TACH GOES UP TO 2500 RPM BUT VEHICLE BARELY MOVES. WHEN I SHIFT FROM PARK TO DRIVE OR REVERSE THE ENGINE/TRANSMISSION MAKES A HORRIBLE CLUNKING NOISE THAT MAKES ME THINK IT WILL COME OUT OF THE BODY. THE ONLY WAY I CAN GET THE CAR DRIVEABLE AGAIN IS TO DISCONNECT BATTERY FOR A FEW MINUTES THEN RECONNECT. EVERYTHING RESETS AND WORKS BUT OCCURS AGAIN-SOMETIMES...

I OWN A 2008 EDGE WITH APPROX. 150,000 MILES ON IT. THE CAR HAS STALLED ON ME 3 TIMES IN THE LAST 3-4 MONTHS. THE FIRST TIME THE CAR STALLED I WAS ON THE FREEWAY DURING RUSH HOUR. THANKFULLY I WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE CARE AND MOVE IT OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE FREEWAY BEFORE IT STALLED AGAIN. AFTER HAVING IT TOWED, I WAS TOLD THAT THE WATER PUMP HAD CRACKED. THE WATER PUMP INVOLVED A LOT OF LABOR AND COST ME ABOUT $1100-$1200 WITH THE TOW. ABOUT A WEEK LATER, I WAS AGAIN DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AND THE CAR STALLED. AGAIN, I WAS ABLE TO MAKE MY WAY OFF THE FREEWAY BEFORE THE CAR DIED COMPLETELY. ONCE AGAIN, I HAD TO HAVE THE CARE TOWED. THIS TIME, I WAS TOLD THAT THE ENGINE APPEARED TO HAVE COOLANT IN THE OIL AND CREATED A MURKY GOO. MY...

TURNED ON CAR AND PUT IT IN REVERSE THEN DRIVE WHEN PULLING OUT OF PARKING LOT,. TRANSMISSION MADE A LOUD "CLUNK". PRESSED HARD ON GAS BUT CAR WOULD BARELY CRAWL. SPEEDOMETER STOPPED WORKING RPMS WOULD INCREASE DRAMATICALLY, WRENCH, CHECK ENGINE, AIRBAG, AND TIRE PRESSURE LIGHTS ALL CAME ON. CONTINUING ON CITY STREET PROBLEM REMAINED. CAR EVENTUALLY GAINED ENOUGH SPEED THAT RPMS WENT DOWN, BUT THE SPEEDOMETER STILL DID NOT WORK. THE NEXT DAY, THE PROBLEM DISAPPEARED EXCEPT CHECK ENGINE LIGHT REMAINS ON.

WHEN DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, TRANSMISSION SLIPS OUT OF GEAR. TAKE FOOT OFF GAS THEN PRESS GAS AND TRANSMISSION JERKS THE VEHICLE HARD. ONCE STOPPED, VEHICLE WILL NOT ACCELERATE. RESTART ENGINE 3 TIMES AND IT WORKS. SOMETIMES WRENCH ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATES.

FALSE DOOR AJAR SIGNAL, DOME LIGHTS STAYING ON EVEN WHILE NIGHT DRIVING

I WAS DRIVING OUT OF TOWN FOR A WORK MEETING WITH AN EMPLOYEE. ONLY GOING APPROX 45-50 MPH, ALL THE SUDDEN THE SPEEDOMETER DROPS TO 0 ALONG WITH THE MILEAGE ON MY CAR(JUST DASHES), THEN THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AND A WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON THEN FEW MINUTES LATER THE TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT. WE WERE COMING UP ON A RED LIGHT SO I SLOWED DOWN AND STOPPED. WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN I PRESSED MY GAS PEDAL AND THE CAR WENT NO WHERE. I SLOWLY MOVED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND SHUT MY CAR OFF. I WAS HOPING TO MAKE IT TO THE GAS STATION 2 MILES UP THE ROAD. I WAITED A FEW MINUTES TURNED MY CAR BACK ON A VERY ODD NOISE HAPPENED THE SPEEDOMETER WAS BACK ON AND THE LIGHTS WERE GONE, I WENT TO PUT THE CAR IN D AND THE ODD NOISE...

I HAVE A 2008 FORD EDGE, I HAVE BEEN NOTICING OVER THE PAST FEW MONTHS THAT AT RANDOM TIMES THE CAR WILL LURCH FORWARD WHEN ACCELERATING AS IF IT SUDDENLY RECEIVED A BURST OF SPEED. ONE DAY I WAS AT A STOP LIGHT AND I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE SO THAT I COULD DRIVE AND THE CAR WOULDN'T MOVE AND WHEN I PRESSED HARDER ON THE ACCELERATOR THERE WAS A LOUD BANG NOISE THAT SOUNDED LIKE THE CAR SUDDENLY CLICKED INTO DRIVE. IT HAS BEEN HAPPENING MORE AND MORE OFTEN WHERE IT LAGS AND STICKS AND LURCHES FORWARD WHEN IT FINALLY WANTS TO GO. TODAY, IT HAD SERIOUS ISSUES WHERE I WAS TRYING TO ACCELERATE AND THE CAR WAS INSTEAD SLOWING DOWN AND LURCHING FORWARD WITH THE SOUND OF THE ENGINE STRAINING AND MAKING NOISE. I HAD TO PULL OVER BECAUSE THE CARS BEHIND ME HAD TO GO...

MY TRANSMISSION IS BEING REPLACED AT 96,400 MILES. I'VE BEEN HAVING INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS WHERE IT WOULD CLUNK WHEN SHIFTING TO THE NEXT GEAR. I'VE PAID HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS BETWEEN 2 FORD DEALERSHIPS AND 2 AUTOMOTIVE REPAIR SHOPS JUST TO TRY TO FIGURE OUT WHAT THE ISSUE IS. BUT LAST WEEK AS I STARTED MY 30 MILE DRIVE HOME, MY CAR STOPPED SHIFTING. NOW I'M PAYING ROUGHLY $5,000 TO GET A TRANSMISSION IN MY CAR. ON TOP OF PAYING $200 FOR A RENTAL CAR DURING ALL OF THIS. THIS VEHICLE NEEDS TO BE RECALLED!

WHILE DRIVING ON FREEWAY WITH CHILDREN IN CAR ON FREEWAY, CAR SUDDENLY MADE A HARD SOUND, SPEEDOMETER DROPPED TO 0 INSTANTLY, ALL DASH BOARD LIGHTS CAME ON, RPM STAYED BETWEEN 2 AND 3, ONCE TRAFFIC SLOWED AND ACCELERATOR WAS EASED OFF OF CAR BEGAN TO SLOW AND WOULD NOT PICK BACK UP SPEED WHEN PRESSED AGAIN- EVEN WHEN PUSHED ALL THE WAY DOWN. I PULLED OVER TO THE SHOULDER AND TURNED THE ENGINE OFF. THEN TURNED IT BACK ON. THEN I TRIED TO PUT IT INTO GEAR. THE ENGINE SOUND AS IF GAS WAS BEING GIVEN TO ENGINE FROM ACCELERATOR AND RPM WAS STUCK AT 2-3, WHEN PUT INTO GEAR, CAR JOLTED REALLY HARD AND MOVED EVER SO SLOWELY WHEN I TRIED TO DRIVE IT BACK INTO TRAFFIC TO GET MY FAMILY OFF FREEWAY, EVEN WHEN I PRESSED PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR, CAR BARELY MOVED. I HAD...

PULLING OUT OF A PARKING LOT TURNING RIGHT TRIED TO ACCELERATE SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF TRAFFIC BEHIND ME AFTER TURNING AND I COULDN'T GO ANYWHERE. PULLED INTO THE NEAREST PARKING LOT APPROX. 50 FEET OR MORE PILED INTO PARKIN SPOT. THEN SAT FOR A COUPLE INURED WRENCH ILLUMINATED ON DASH BOARD. TRIED TO BACK UP TO STRAIGHTEN VEHICLE AND IT MADE A LOUD CLUNK NOISE WHEN PUTTING IN REVERSE. AFTER TURNING OFF CAR WENT TO RESTART AFTER 30 MINUTES CAR MADE LOUD CLUNK AGAIN WITHOUT BEING IN GEAR. AT THIS TIME IT ISN'T A RECALLED ITEM JUST. TSB AND NOT GETTING ANY RESOLUTION AS TO WHY THIS ISNT A RECALL ITEM. APPROX. 45 MINUTES PRIOR TO THIS INCIDENT I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY DRIVING THE SPEED LIMIT. WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF THE FAILURE OCCURRED AT THIS POINT. THANK GOD IT DIDN'T AS I WOULDN'T BE WRITING THIS LETTER. FOR THE...

AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCKING ONCE THE VEHICLE REACHES A CERTAIN LOW SPEED HAS FAILED TO WORK ON A NUMBER OF OCCASIONS. UNLESS I AM BEING ATTENTIVE ENOUGH TO NOTICE THEY HAVE NOT LOCKED I'M SURE THERE HAS BEEN A NUMBER OF TIMES THE DOORS HAVE BEEN UNLOCKED FOR AN ENTIRE TRIP. I ASSUME THIS WOULD BE A SAFETY ISSUE IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH IF THE DOORS WERE NOT LOCKED.

DOOR AJAR ICON ON ALL DOORS CLOSED DOME LIGHTS ONLY GO OFF WHEN CAR IS IN MOTION HOWEVER IF YOU HIT BRAKES AS IF YOUR GOING TO STOP DOME LIGHTS COME BACK ON . *TR

I PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE AND HEARD A LOUD THUMP THUMP AND THOUGHT I BACKED INTO AN OBJECT, BUT DID NOT. WHEN I PUT THE CAR IN DRIVE, THERE WAS LITTLE ACCELERATION EVEN THOUGH I HAD THE ACCELERATOR TO THE FLOOR. I CONTINUED ON AND AFTER A LITTLE WHILE, ABOUT 2 MILES, THE CAR RAN ALRIGHT AND I MADE IT HOME SAFELY. I IMMEDIATELY CONTACTED THE FORD DEALERSHIP IN TOWN, AND DROPPED THE VEHICLE OFF THIS MORNING 7/29/2014. *JS

ENTERING HIGHWAY AND AUTO WOULD NOT SHIFT GEARS OR ACCELERATE. STAYED IDLE AT OVER 5 RPM'S AND HAD TO PULL OFF THE ROAD. SEEMED LIKE A TRANSMISSION PROBLEM. TOWED TO REPAIR SHOP FOR ASSESSMENT.STILL AT SHOP. THIS VEHICLE ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS BEFORE THIS INCIDENT HAS REGULARLY ENGAGED IN A VIOLENT JERK WHEN I HAVE ENGAGED IT IN DRIVE OR REVERSE. SEEMS LIKE A TRANSMISSION ISSUE BUT DEALER WONT DO ANYTHING UNLESS THEY CAN DUPLICATE PROBLEM. I HAVE SEEN AND KNOW OF NUMEROUS OTHER FORD EDGE OWNERS THAT HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUE AND NO FIX HAS BEEN FOUND OR DEALER AND FORD WONT FIX UNLESS IT DUPLICATED THE ISSUE WHILE THEY HAVE THE VEHICLE AND MOST TIMES ITS SOMETHING NOT COVERED. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND THEY NEED TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE. *JS

THE "DRIVER DOOR AJAR" MESSAGE CONTINUES TO GO OFF ON OUR 2008 FORD EDGE. THE DOOR IS SECURELY CLOSED. THE LIGHTS WILL STAY ON FINALLY CAUSING A COMPLETE DRAIN ON OUR BATTERY LAST NIGHT DURING THE NIGHT. THIS IS A BIG SAFETY CONCERN AS THE DOORS DO NOT LOCK SOMETIME UNTIL SEVERAL MILES DOWN THE ROAD. WE COULD ALSO BE LEFT STRANDED SOMEWHERE AS WE NEVER KNOW WHEN IT IS GOING TO HAPPEN. WE GO TO BED ALL LIGHTS ARE OFF AND SOMETIME DURING THE NIGHT THEY COME ON. WE HAVE TRIED SEVERAL SUGGESTIONS REGARDING ENGINE LUBRICANT ON THE PLUNGER, BUT IT IS A TEMP FIX AT BEST. THIS IS A SAFETY PROBLEM. I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE IT FIXED BY FORD. CLEARLY IF YOU DO RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM WITH THE FORD EDGES FOR SEVERAL YEARS.

A 1995 LANDROVER RAN A STOPLIGHT AND T-BONED MY VEHICLE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION. A SECOND CAR HIT THE BACK OF MY CAR.

WHILE DRIVING MY 2008 FORD EDGE IT WOULD NOT SHIFT THAN A LOUD BANG AND SLAMMED INTO GEAR ,WENT FOR A SHORT TIME THEN WOULD NOT SHIFT LIGHTS CAME ON DASH BOARD TECH REVED UP NO SPEEDOMETER. *TT
