Vehicle stahls about 50% time in reverse when parking mainly, and in forward when parking. Very scary and I have only had this vehicle for 1.5 months. Repairs have been made according to CEL codes; however, the stalling does not report the code, so it occurs over and over. Very scared this will happen and cause an accident. Based on numerous forums who had the same car and instance - it is the throttle body.

WON'T SWITCH GEARS AND SMELLS LIKE IT IS BURNING

TRANSMISSION HAS ISSUES SHIFTING AFTER SLOWING DOWN AND THEN SPEEDING BACK UP. IT IS JERKY AND TRANSMISSION LIGHT COMES ON .SOES IT AT HIGH SPEEDS AND AT SLOWER SPEEDS. WAS RANDOMLY DOING IT BUT DOES IT DAILY NOW.

EXITING OFF THE FREEWAY AND CAR LOST POWER WENT INTO LIMP MODE AND WRENCH ICON CAME ON

THE CAR WAS IN MOTION.THE CAR MAKE A VOOM SOUND EVERY TIME IT SHIFT . I HAVE NEVER BEFORE HEARD BEFORE TODAY. *TR

65 MPH ON HIGHWAY, COMPLETE LOSS OF POWER... ELECTRONICS SEEMED TO SPUTTER OFF, THEN BACK ON FOR A FEW SECONDS, THEN OFF AGAIN, BUT THE VEHICLE SHUT COMPLETELY OFF MID HIGHWAY DRIVING WITH NO ABILITY TO STEER, ACCELERATE OR DECELERATE. ENDED UP AT A COMPLETE STOP ON THE HIGHWAY WITH NOTHING WORKING TO POWER THE VEHICLE BACK ON. HEATER SEEMED TO CONTINUE TO WORK, BUT NOTHING AS FAR AS THE ENGINE OR DASH, NO ELECTRONICS. CONTINUED TO TRY TO START THE VEHICLE OVER AND OVER AS ONCOMING VEHICLES SWERVED AROUND ME AT 60 TO 70 MPH. DIALED 911 AND HAD TO WAIT 15 MINUTES BEFORE A POLICE CAR PARKED BEHIND THE FORD EDGE WITH FLASHERS ON. LITERALLY NO WARNING, NO WARNING LIGHTS, NO NOTHING. VEHICLE SIMPLY LOST POWER... COMPLETELY TURNED OFF. THIS WAS HANDS DOWN ONE OF THE MOST FRIGHTENING EXPERIENCES FOR MY DAUGHTER WHO WAS DRIVING AT THE TIME....

I WAS DRIVING MY VEHICLE ON MY WAY HOME FROM WORK ON A COUNTRY ROAD. THE VEHICLE RANDOMLY BEGAN TO LOSE POWER AND WOULDN'T GAIN MUCH SPEED. I WAS TRYING TO GET IT PARKED IN AT LEAST A DRIVEWAY OR PLACE TO SIT SAFELY IN CASE SOMETHING HAPPENED. THERE WERE CARS BEHIND ME , THE CAR STARTED SMOKING REALLY BAD FROM THE HOOD. BEFORE I HAD TIME TO GET SOMEWHERE SAFELY, THE CAR SHUT OFF AND STARTED GOING IN REVERSE. I HAD TO SLAM ON MY EMERGENCY BREAK AND WAS STUCK THERE UNTIL I HAD HELP FROM A TOW TRUCK TO TOW IT. THE CAR WOULDN'T TURN ON OR MOVE SO I WAS STUCK ON THIS HILL AND HAD PEOPLE FROM THEIR HOUSE GUIDE TRAFFIC UNTIL HELL CAME. THE CAR DIDN'T GIVE ME ANY WARNINGS OR ISSUES PRIOR TO THIS AT ALL. I HAVEN'T HAD THE VEHICLE FOR MORE THAN...

THE CAR ACCELERATED WHILE I WAS BRAKING WHILE PARKING ON THE STREET, THIS PROBLEM IS REOCCURRING. I ALSO CONSTANTLY GET A WARNING THAT MY CAR IS OVERHEATING WHILE THE BAR LINE IS ON COLD. I TRIED PUTTING ANTI FREEZE AND IT DOESN'T HELP. THE CAR ALSO TURNED OFF AT A GREEN LIGHT WHEN I TURNED ON MY AIR CONDITIONER. LASTLY I GOT A WARNING THAT MY OIL PRESSURE IS LOW ALTHOUGH I JUST GOT AN OIL AND FILTER CHANGE THE DAY BEFORE. PLEASE DO A RECALL FOR THESE THINGS. I HAVE A CHILD AND IT IS VERY UNWISE TO PUT HIM IN ANY DANGER BY BEING IN THIS CAR.

I WAS DRIVING MY FORD EDGE ON ROUTE 303 IN PHOENIX AT ABOUT 60 MILES PER HOUR WHEN THE CAR SUDDENLY STARTED SHAKING AND LOSING POWER. IT ALLOWED ME TO DRIVE A VERY SHORT DISTANCE UNTIL I WAS ABLE TO STOP THE CAR, IN A TURN LANE WITH A TRACTOR TRAILER ON MY TAIL ...VERY DISCONCERTING! A YELLOW WRENCH LIGHT WAS SHOWING ALONG WITH SOME NOTICE ABOUT MY TRACTION BEING OFF, I BELIEVE. AFTER SITTING A FEW MINUTES I WAS ABLE TO MOVE IT OFF THE TURN LANE AND INTO A FAIRLY SAFE LANE AHEAD. FORTUNATELY A POLICEMAN PULLED UP BEHIND ME AND I SHUT OFF THE ENGINE AND CALLED AAA FOR A TOW. 20 MINUTES LATER, I TURNED ON THE ENGINE WHICH NOW SEEMED FINE SO THE POLICEMAN SUGGESTED THAT I PULL FORWARD INTO A SAFER AREA. AFTER DOING SOTHEBY'S CAR SEEMED FINE AGAIN SO I DROVE IT TO...

VEHICLE HAS 54,096 MILES ON IT. POWER TRANSFER UNIT FAILURE AND TRANSMISSION FAILURE. NOTICED A NOISE, TOOK IT IN FOR REPAIR BEFORE IT GOT WORSE. THIS SEEMS TO BE A KNOWN AND COMMON ISSUE. VERY EXPENSIVE REPAIR WITH LOW MILES.

THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AND ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE AWAY FROM A STOP LIGHT. THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT MOVE UNDER ITS OWN POWER. THE ENGINE RPM WOULD INCREASE AS WELL AS THE SPEEDOMETER BUT NO MOVEMENT. THE VEHICLE WOULD ALSO MOVE WITH THE VEHICLE IN PARK. TOWED TO SHOP WHERE IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE AXLE RETAINER CLIP HAD FALLEN OFF AND THE CV AXLE AND IT SLID OUT OF THE THE INNER SHAFT AND STRIPPED THE ENTRY TEETH AND THE END OF THE CV SHAFT. KNOWN PROBLEM ON 2012-14 FORD EDGE.

I WAS DRIVING THE CAR IN TRAFFIC, THEN IT ALL OF A SUDDEN CUT OFF, I ABLE TO RESTART AND MOVE A SHORT DISTANCE TO HAVE IT TOWED TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPARTMENT. WAS TOLD BY DEALERSHIP NEED COMPLETE POWER TRAIN REPLACEMENT, WATER PUMP, POSSIBLY ENTIRE NEW ENGINE.

THROTTLE BODY SUSPECTED: 2011 FORD 3.5L EDGE DECELERATING AND STALLING AT RANDOM. VEHICLE STRANDED IN MIDDLE OF ROADWAY UNTIL PUSHED TO SIDE OF THE ROAD. TURNING VEHICLE OFF THEN BACK ON CORRECTS ISSUE UNTIL THE NEXT RANDOM EVENT. THIS HAS HAPPENED 4 TIMES WITH THIS VEHICLE.

DRIVING IN MIDDLE LANE ON HIGHWAY DURING RUSH HOUR AND SUDDENLY LOST ACCELERATION. THANKFULLY I WAS ABLE TO AVOID BEING REAR ENDED AND COAST TO SHOULDER OF HIGHWAY. AFTER TURNING THE CAR ON ANF OFF A COUPLE OF TIMES, THE CAR RESPONDED WHEN I PUSHED ACCELERATOR. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE A 1/10 OF A MILE TO A LINCOLN DEALER AND LEAVE MY CAR THERE. AFTER GOOGLING THE ISSUE, I SEE MANY PEOPLE HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE WITH FORDS, SOME HAVE BEEN RECALLED, SOME HAVE HAD WARRANTIES EXTENDED TO FIX..(EVEN A CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT EXISTS!) BUT, I RECEIVED NO NOTIFICATION FROM FORD THAT THIS COULD BE AN ISSUE. I ALSO DISCOVERED THAT QUITE A FEW PEOPLE SAY THEY WERE IN ACCIDENTS DUE TO THIS ISSUE.THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND I NARROWLY ESCAPED CAUSING A MULTI CAR ACCIDENT!! FORD NEEDS TO BE FORCED TO FIX THIS ISSUE IMMEDIATELY AND TO...

SHIFT TO PARK WARNING INDICATOR KEEPS COMING ON WHEN THE VEHICLE IS ALREADY IN PARK AND THE VEHICLE IS SHUTOFF. THIS CAUSES THE WHOLE CLUSTER TO LIGHT UP AND WILL EVENTUALLY RUN THE BATTERY DOWN LEAVING A PERSON STRANDED. FORD IS AWARE OF THIS ISSUE AS IT OCCURS ON SEVERAL MODELS. THEY NEED TO RECALL THIS DEFECT IN THE SHIFTER ASSEMBLY.

DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND I THE YELLOW WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON AND I LOST POWER. THE VEHICLE WOULDN'T ACCELERATE AND FELT VERY UNDER POWERED. THANKFULLY I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER TURN THE VEHICLE OFF AND RESTART IT. AFTER RESTARTING THE PROBLEM SEEMED TO GO AWAY. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SCENARIO. HOPEFULLY FORD MAKES IT RIGHT AND HAS A RECALL FOR THIS COMMON PROBLEM. *TR

EIGHT TIMES WITHIN THE PAST 60 DAYS WE HAVE BEEN DRIVING OUR CAR AND WITH NO WARNING IT SLOWS AND WILL NOT PICK UP SPEED UNTIL WE TURN THE IGNITION OFF AND TURN IT BACK ON A WRENCH APPEARS IN THE DASHBOARD, WE HAVEN'T HAD ANY ACCIDENTS BUT WE ARE AFRAID TO DIVE THE CAR ON THE INTERSTATE ITS JUST A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE WE ARE IN THE WRONG PLACE AT THE WRONG TIME AND THIS HAPPENS. *TR

2011 FORD EDGE LOST ALL POWER FROM THE THROTTLE WHILE TRAVELING ON THE INTERSTATE. PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, HAD A YELLOW WRENCH LIGHT, NO THROTTLE RESPONSE AND ROUGH RUNNING ENGINE. SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF WAITED ABOUT 2 MINUTES AND RESTARTED EVERYTHING WAS RUNNING FINE. DROVE THE EDGE ABOUT 10 MILES ON THE INTERSTATE TO MY EXIT, AFTER COMING TO A STOP AND READY TO ACCELERATE ONTO THE HIGHWAY I HIT THE GAS AND GOT OUT INTO THE INTERSECTION AND THE YELLOW WRENCH LIGHT ILLUMINATED AGAIN AND LOST ALL POWER LEAVING ME STRANDED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION WITH TRAFFIC COMING BOTH WAYS. AFTER TRAFFIC STOPPED AND I WAS ABLE TO SLOWLY MOVE TO THE SHOULDER I SHUT THE CAR DOWN AGAIN AND CALLED A FRIEND TO COME HELP ME. AFTER SITTING FOR 10-20 MINUTES, MY FRIEND SHOWED UP AND THE EDGE RESTARTS AND WAS ABLE...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER. THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE POWER TRAIN FAULT WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 32,500. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

ALERT STATING "AWD OFF" AND AN IMAGE OF A WRENCH SUDDENLY CAME ON WHILE DRIVING. CAR SPUTTERED AND WAS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE. PULLED OVER, TURNED CAR OFF AND WAITED A FEW MINUTES. WHEN TURNED BACK ON, ALERT WAS OFF. LUCKILY I WAS ON A RESIDENTIAL STREET, BUT COULD POSE A DANGEROUS SITUATION IF ON THE HIGHWAY OR DURING TRAFFIC DUE TO INABILITY TO ACCELERATE OR DRIVE CAR.

CAR DRIVING AT ANY SPEED WILL ABRUPTLY SHOW YELLOW WRENCH, LOSE POWER AND ACCELERATION, STEERING BECOMES HEAVY AND YOU HAVE TO FIGHT TO GET THE NOW SHAKING CAR TO SIDE OF ROAD. AFTER SWITCHING OFF IGNITION, WAITING TEN SECONDS, IT RESTARTS AND RUNS PERFECTLY FOR ANOTHER FEW WEEKS. DEALERSHIP CANNOT REPLICATE ISSUE. MY RESEARCH POINTS IN THROTTLE BODY ASSEMBLY ISSUE. HAS HAPPENED ABOUT 12 TIMES IN 18 MONTHS. EACH OF DIFFERING TERROR AND DANGER, BUT NO-ONE CAN HELP, DESPITE OTHERS ONLINE HAVING SAME ISSUE.

1.A WRENCH SHAPED LIGHT CAME ON FROM INSTRUMENT PANEL, AND HAVING A SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER WHILE DRIVING. 2.THE ACCELERATOR STOPS WORKING OR HAS EXTREMELY LIMITED POWER. 3.AFTER POWER OFF THE VEHICLE AND WAIT FOR 10-15 MINUTES TO RESTART THE VEHICLE, THE WRENCH SHAPED LIGHT GOES AWAY AND THE VEHICLE IN DRIVABLE CONDITION AGAIN. BUT THE PROBLEM COULD HAPPEN AGAIN WITHIN A DAY OR IN FEW DAYS. IT IS REALLY DANGEROUS WHILE DURING IN HIGHWAY OR IN BUSY ROADS WHEN THIS PROBLEM OCCURRED. THE PROBLEM HAPPENS RANDOMLY. SOMETIMES IT COULD HAPPEN SEVERAL TIMES IN A DAY, SOMETIMES IT WON'T HAPPEN IN A WEEK. I CALLED FORD DEALERS AND THEY SAID TO DIAGNOSTIC IT FOR $98 AND ONLY WHEN THE SYMPTOM HAPPENS THEY WILL BE ABLE TO FIND THE REAL CAUSE. I SEARCHED ONLINE AND IT'S A VERY COMMON PROBLEM TO 2010 -2013 FORD EDGE OWNERS.

DURING ACCELERATION THE CAR SHAKES, LOSES ACCELERATION AND CUTS OUT. IT HAS HAPPENED 4 TIMES THIS WEEK (IN TRAFFIC) TO THE POINT WHERE I HAD TO KICK ON THE HAZARDS REALLY QUICK AND FIND MY WAY TO SAFETY. ONCE IT IS CUT OFF, PUT IN PARK AND RESTARTED IT ACTS LIKE NOTHING WAS EVER WRONG. THE ONLY LIGHT THAT COMES ON IT THE YELLOW WRENCH ON THE DASH WITH NO OTHER WARNINGS OR INFORMATION.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER HAVING MAINTENANCE PERFORMED, THE TRANSMISSION FAILED TO SHIFT WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE PRESSURE PLATE CRACKED AND AS A RESULT, THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 24,950.

I PURCHASED THE CERTIFIED USED EDGE IN OCTOBER OF 2013. I HAVE A MAJOR PROBLEM WITH THE VEHICLE IT HAS LOST ALL POWER ON ME TWICE IN THE LAST MONTH. ONCE WHILE SITTING IDLE AND JUST TONIGHT WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY. THE WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON AND I HAD JUST ENOUGH TIME TO PUT MY HAZARD LIGHTS ON TO ALERT THE VEHICLE APPROACHING MY VEHICLE. IT TOOK SEVERAL MINUTES FOR ME TO GET TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY AS I WAS IN THE MIDDLE LANE. I CALLED FOR AAA TO HAVE THE VEHICLE TOWED HOME. WHILE WAITING I TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF. JUST AS THE TOW TRUCK ARRIVED I TURNED THE VEHICLE BACK ON AND THE WRENCH SYMBOL WAS GONE. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE SO I STILL HAD IT TOWED. I WILL BE TAKING IT TO THE SHOP ON MONDAY MORNING. HOPEFULLY...

HAD LOSS OF POWER WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH WITH NO WARNING. WRENCH LIGHT ON DASH COMES ON AND CAR SLOWS TO APPROXIMATELY 10MPH. ACCELERATOR HAD NO RESPONSE, BRAKES AND STEERING STILL WORKED.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY, MY 2011 FORD EDGE LOST ALL ACCELERATION AND THE AWD WARNING LIGHT CAME ON WITH THE LIGHTED SYMBOL OF A WRENCH. I WAS ALMOST REAR ENDED BY SEVERAL CARS BEFORE I COULD MAKE IT SIDE OF ROAD. I HAD TO SHUT VEHICLE COMPLETELY DOWN AND RESTART. THIS PROBLEM CONTINUED FOR SEVERAL MORE TIMES. FORD NEEDS TO ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM BEFORE SEVERAL PEOPLE GET KILLED.

WHEN I PLACE THE CAR IN PARK, THE P IN THE DASHBOARD DOES NOT TURN RED AND I GET AN ERROR MESSAGE IN THE DASH THAT THE CAR IS NOT IN PARK. IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO GET THE GEAR SHIFT TO SHOW THE P IN RED, IT RUNS YOUR BATTERY DOWN. THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH THE FORD EDGE; HOWEVER, THE ONLY ONES COVERED TO BE FIXED BY THE DEALER ARE 2012 THRU 2016. WHY WAS THE 2011 FORD EDGE NOT INCLUDED IN THE CORRECTION REQUIRED OF FORD DEALERS? WILL IT BE ADDED TO THE LIST SOON?

MY TRCT CNTRL LIGHT HAD COME ON A FEW MONTHS AGO, I HAD NOT GOTTEN IT FIXED YET AND AS I WAS DRIVING HOME THE WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON, I COULD NOT ACCELERATE AND MY CAR STOPPED. I TOOK IT IN, AND AS TOLD IT WAS A BAD FUSE. A FEW MONTHS LATER I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, HIT A SMALL PUDDLE THE WRENCH LIGHT CAME BACK ON AND I STALLED IN THE FAST LANE ON THE HIGHWAY. LUCKILY I WAS NOT HIT BUT I COULD OF BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED. THIS IS BECOMING A HUGE PROBLEM!

DRIVER DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS CLEARLY CLOSED. THE CAR WILL NOT STAY LOCKED; I PRESS THE DOOR LOCK AND THE DOORS LOCK AND THEN IMMEDIATELY UNLOCK SO I CANNOT HAVE MY CAR DOORS LOCKED WHILE I AM DRIVING. THIS IS A CONSTANT PROBLEM; IT IS NOT INTERMITTENT. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED IN THIS CAR. I HAVE HAD TO HAVE THE THROTTLE BODY REPLACED AT A COST OF $500.00, I HAVE HAD A BRAKE BOOSTER FAILURE WHICH HAD TO BE FIXED, AND NOW THIS PROBLEM WHICH I READ IS A COSTLY FIX. THIS IS MY FIRST FORD VEHICLE; WHAT IS THE PROBLEM?

THE ENGINE DIED, AS I WAS DRIVING THE CAR DOWN THE INTERSTATE. THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED AS I TRIED TO EXIT AND MY CAR DRIFTED INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. FORTUNATELY THERE WAS NO ACCIDENT BUT WHEN I WAS FINALLY ABLE TO GET THE CAR TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD IT WAS SEVERELY SMOKING AND I HAD TO GET MYSELF AND MY DAUGHTER OUT OF THE CAR IMMEDIATELY. ALSO, THE HEAD GASKETS AND RADIATOR BLEW AND NOW THERE IS A MAJOR ELECTRICAL PROBLEM WITH THE CAR THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT COULD NOT DIAGNOSE AFTER 5 HOURS OF INVESTIGATING.

(ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS )MY 2011 FORD EDGE UPON ACCLERATION THE VEHICLE LOSES THE ABILTIY TO ACCLERATE - SHUDDERS AND THE CHECK ENGINE FLASHES OR STAYS ON. SUPPOSEDLY COULD NOT FIND THE "CODE" THAT CAUSED IT. I HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE INTO 2 DIFFERENT DEALER SHIPS - ONE REPLACED THE TRANSFER CASE, THE OTHER THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER AND IGNITION COILS- TO THE COST OF OVER 600.00 ON A USED CERTIFIED VEHICLE. LESS THAN A FEW DAYS LATER SAME ISSUE - BACK TO DEALER SAID IT WAS A LOOSE WIRE. I NOW DRIVE THE VEHICLE VERY TENTATIVELY AND HOPE I DON'T HAVE TO ACCELERATE QUICKLY.THE VEHICLE PERSISTS IN THE ABILITY TO NOT ACCLERATE QUICKLY ( USUALLY AT 55 MPH OR HIGHER )WITHOUT THE ENGINE LIGHT FLASHING OR STAYING ON. IT ALSO SEEMS TO HAPPEN MOST FREQUENTLY ON QUICK ACCLERATION --ON RAMP OR GETTING UP TO FREEWAY SPEED . IT IS VERY DANGEROUS...

WHILE DRIVING THE POWERTRAIN ERROR CODE (WRENCH ICON) POPS UP AND MY CARS LOSES ALL ACCELERATION. I'M FORCED TO TRY TO GET TO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD WHILE COASTING AND THEN ONCE STOPPED IF I TAKE MY KEY OUT AND REINSERT AND START THE CAR EVERYTHING IS FINE. FORD DEALER CANNOT FIND ANY ERRORS WITH THE VEHICLE AND THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN TO UNEXPECTEDLY LOSE ALL ENGINE POWER WHILE AT HIGH SPEED ON FREEWAYS OR EVEN SIDE ROADS WITHOUT A SHOULDER. THERE ARE LOTS OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME ISSUE POSTING THE SAME PROBLEMS.

TRANSMISSION WILL NOT SHIFT INTO PARK. DEALERSHIP EMPLOYEE TOLD ME THAT THIS HAPPENS SO OFTEN IN FORD EDGE AND EXPLORER THAT THEY HAVE TO KEEP THE AFFECTED PARTS IN STOCK CONSTANTLY. THIS IS CLEARLY A SAFETY DEFECT AND COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES BECAUSE THE CAR WOULD BE LEFT IN GEAR WITHOUT THE TRANSMISSION BEING LOCKED. FORD MOTOR COMPANY SHOULD CORRECT THIS PROBLEM IMMEDIATELY BEFORE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH RESULTS.

VEHICLE LOSSES ALL THROTTLE CONTROL VEHICLE DOES NOT SHUT OFF BUT THE WRENCH LIGHT COMES ON THE DASH AND HAS NO THROTTLE RESPONSE. I HAVE TO TURN VEHICLE OFF THEN RESTART TO RESET THE COMPUTER. EVERY THING WORKS GREAT FOR A COUPLE DAYS THEN IT DOES IT AGAIN. I HAVE HAD THIS HAPPEN IN THE MIDDLE OF A INTERSECTION, ON I 95 , I 64, I 264, COMING CLOSE TO BEING HIT ON PASSENGER SIDE IN A INTERSECTION WITH MY GRAND BABY IN THE VEHICLE. I HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE IN THE DEALERSHIP HERE IN NORFOLK VIRGINIA. THEY CHARGE ME 125.00 AND SAID THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THE DEALER ALSO STATED THEY THINK IT MIGHT BE A THROTTLE BODY. I TOLD THEM TO PUT ONE ON IT AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY DON'T JUST REPLACE PARTS. I PICKED IT UP FROM THE DEALERSHIP AND 2 DAYS LATER...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 FORD EDGE. WHILE IDLING, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SMOKE AND THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL ODOR INSIDE THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE OCCURRED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE POWER TAKE OFF UNIT MALFUNCTIONED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANAFCTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 14,652.

VEHICLE FAILED NJ STATE INSPECTION TWICE FOR "NOT READY" CONDITIONS. THERE'S A KNOWN ISSUE RECALL 13E04 - PCM CONFIGURATION ERROR WITH COMPUTER ISSUE DTC P160A REOCCURRING AND OUR VIN IS NOT COVERED UNDER THIS FIRST RECALL ALTHOUGH EVERY ISSUE IS THE SAME AS VIN SPECIFIC RECALLS

WHILE DRIVING THE CAR WILL SUDDENLY LOSE POWER ( NOT ACCELERATE ). THE WRENCH LIGHT WILL COME ON. YOU MUST TRY TO SAFELY COAST TO SIDE OF ROAD AND TURN IGNITION OFF AND RESTART. THIS HAPPENS INTERMITTENTLY AND IS VERY DANGEROUS IN HEAVY TRAFFIC AND AT HIGHER SPEEDS. THIS HAS OCCURRED ON INTERSTATE HIGHWAY AND CITY DRIVING. DANGEROUS ALSO WHEN THERE IS NOT ENOUGH ROOM TO PULL OFF ROAD SAFELY. WE HAVE TAKEN CAR TO FORD DEALERSHIP BUT THEY CANNOT FIND PROBLEM. WE HAVE NOTED ON THE INTERNET THAT A LOT OF OTHER FORD EDGE DRIVERS ARE ALSO HAVING THIS ISSUE. I WOULD THINK THAT FORD MOTOR COMPANY WOULD BE AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM. I WOULD HOPE THAT THIS ISSUE WILL BE ADDRESSED BEFORE SOMEONE IS SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED. THIS HAS HAPPENED 6 TIMES FROM 11/30/2015. IT ALSO HAPPENED OVER A YEAR AGO 4-5 TIMES AND FORD COULD NOT...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER. IN ADDITION, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED BUT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE AND THE SERVICE VEHICLE SOON WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHO WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE OR REPAIR THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 65,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

MY HUSBAND AND I WERE DRIVING HOME (GOING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH) WITH OUR 2 YEAR OLD AND ALL OF THE SUDDEN THE CAR LOST POWER. IT DID NOT DIE BUT WOULDN'T GO OVER 5 MPH. THANKFULLY, WE WERE CLOSE TO HOME AND NOT ON A BUSY HIGHWAY. IF WE HAD BEEN ON A BUSY HIGHWAY I DO BELIEVE IT WOULD HAVE CAUSE AN ACCIDENT AND THAT TERRIFIES ME SINCE THIS IS OUR PRIMARY FAMILY VEHICLE. I HAVE READ THAT FORD EXTENDED THE WARRANTY FOR THIS ISSUE BUT WAS NOT MADE TO ISSUE A RECALL. UNFORTUNATELY, FORD INC'S "CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM" FOR THIS ISSUE EXPIRED IN JANUARY 2015 SO NOW I WILL BE OUT THE MONEY TO FIX THIS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS ISSUE. FORD MOTOR COMPANY SHOULD BE MADE TO ISSUE A RECALL TO FIX THIS ISSUE BEFORE IT KILLS SOMEONE.

WRENCH WARNING LIGHT, THEN LOST ACCELERATION, CAR STOPPED. DRIVING ON HIGHWAY WHEN THIS OCCURRED.

THIS IS THE SECOND REPORT I HAVE MADE ABOUT THIS ISSUE. THE FIRST WAS ON/ABOUT SET. 26, 2015. WHEN I WAS DRIVING, THE CAR IN MOTION, THE POWER TRAIN MALFUNCTION INDICATOR (A WRENCH) COMES ON, THE CAR LOSES ALL POWER, GOES DOWN TO PERHAPS 2 MILES PER HOUR, AND THEN STOPS. IT FEELS AS THOUGH THE POWER STEERING ALSO GOES OUT. WHEN THE CAR STOPS, IT SHAKES AND JERKS. YOU CANNOT ACCELERATE. I TURN THE MOTOR OFF AND THEN ON, "RESETTING" THE INDICATOR (PER THE FORD DEALERSHIP). AND THE ISSUE STOPS. IT HAS HAPPENED AGAIN TODAY, OCT. 23RD. TWICE (IN THE MORNING AND AGAIN THIS AFTERNOON). I CALLED SAM GALLOWAY FORD IN FORT MYERS, FL AND WAS TOLD TO BRING IT IN ON NOV. 4TH. AGAIN, TODAY IS OCT. 23. I WAS TOLD, BY DANIELLE (SERVICE ADVISOR), THAT "SINCE IT IS NOT HAPPENING ALL THE TIME IT WAS FINE TO...

ON A FRIDAY AFTERNOON IN BUSY, FAST MOVING HIGHWAY TRAFFIC, I BEGAN A LANE CHANGE TO TURN RIGHT OFF OF THE HIGHWAY ONTO A NEIGHBORHOOD STREET. MY CAR JOLTED THEN ABRUPTLY LOST ALL ACCELERATION. I DID HAVE ELECTRICAL POWER AND POWER STEERING, BUT NO SPEED. I WAS ABLE TO CREEP ALONG AT SNAIL PACE STAYING TO THE FAR RIGHT. I PUT ON MY FLASHERS, AND FORTUNATELY ALL TRAFFIC BEHIND ME COULD SAFELY MANUEVER AROUND TO PASS ME. I WAS QUITE SCARED BY THE SUDDEN ONSET OF THIS PROBLEM, THE LOSS OF CONTROL AND THE FACT THAT THE INSTRUMENT PANEL ONLY GAVE ME "WRENCH" SYMBOL AND NO INSTRUCTIONS OR DESCRIPTIONS THAT WERE HELPFUL. ONCE I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND TURNED IT ON AGAIN, THE SYMBOL LIGHT WAS GONE AND MY CAR DROVE NORMALLY. AT NO TIME PRIOR TO THIS EVENT DID MY INSTRUMENT PANEL DENOTE ANY ISSUE WITH MY POWER...
