2013 FORD EDGE Engine Problems

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 50-55 MPH, THE SERVICE ENGINE SOON WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS INTERMITTENT. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 63,000.

THIS CAR IS HORRIBLE. MULTIPLE SAFETY ISSUES! FIRST, MY AXLE NEEDS TO BE REDONE. CLICKING AND POPPING WITH ALL TURNS. SECONDLY, THE ELECTRONICS ARE HAYWIRE, WITH THE AC BLOWING HOT ON ONE SIDE AND COLD ON THE OTHER AND NOT STARTING WITH BRAND NEW BATTERIES. THIRD, THE BRAKE SYSTEM... HAD THE BOOSTER GO OUT. FORD REPLACED AND UPON THE DRIVE BACK, IT FAILED EVEN WORSE LOCKING MY ENGINE, SMOKE FROMTHE BRAKES BEING LOCKED UP. I HAD TO TOW BACK ON MY EXPENSE AND RENT A CAR FOR DAYS. THE REPLACED THE BOOSTER, BUT I STILL HAVE EVEN WORSENING BRAKE ISSUES. FORD TOLD ME I NEED A NEW ABS AND MASTER CYLINDER. IT ONLY DID THIS AFTER THE 2 FAILED BOOSTERS... NOW IF I HIT A BUMP OR GRAVEL WHILE PRESSING THE BRAKES, MY BRAKES GO OUT! I MEAN THEY FAIL! LUCKILY I HAVEN'T HIT ANYONE YET. IT'S OFF AND ON...

THROTTLE BODY MALFUNCTION. DRIVING AT 45MPH CAR SUDDENLY SLOWS TO 2 MPH. SHUT OFF CAR START AGAIN, SAME THING HAPPENS. WRENCH LIGHT COMES ON. FORD HAS EXTENDED WARRANTY COVERAGE ON EARLIER FORD EDGE MODELS BUT DOES NOT ON THE 2013 EDGE. THIS IS THE IDENTICAL PROBLEM AND REPAIR ( FORD SERVICE DIAGNOSED) AT A COST OF $600.00. VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM TO OCCUR SUDDENLY SLOWING TO A CRAWL IN FAST MOVING TRAFFIC. SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALL.

2013 FORD EDGE LIMITED 45K MILES TAMPA FL - CAR WILL RANDOMLY GO INTO LIMP MODE WITHOUT WARNING AT ANY TIME, ALL LIGHTS ON DASH COME ON ALONG WITH THE WRENCH. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON THREE DIFFERENT OCCASIONS, TWO ON A BUSY 4 LANE CITY STREET ABOVE 40 MPH AND THE LAST WAS WHILE MERGING ONTO THE INTERSTATE ABOVE 50 MPH. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS DEFECT THAT WILL EVENTUALLY RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT. ONCE IN LIMP MODE I WILL HAVE TO PULL OVER, STOP AND RESTART THE CAR AT WHICH POINT THE CAR DRIVES NORMAL. DEALER CAN'T REPLICATE THE FAULT, SO THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING. I HAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY THROUGH 75K MILES BUT CAN'T USE THAT EITHER AS THE FORD DEALER CAN'T REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THROUGH RESEARCH I FOUND THE SAME SYMPTOMS ON OTHER FORDS WHERE THE THROTTLE BODY WAS AN ISSUE INCLUDING MY YEAR EDGE. FORD DID...

MY CAR WILL ALL OF A SUDDEN STOP EXCELS RATING AT HIGH SPEEDS. THE RPMS INCREASE AS THE SPEEDS DECREASES. THE FORD DEALERSHIPS CAN NOT FIGURE IT OUT AS IT HAS TO BE DOING IT. IT CAN HAPPEN 30 MINUTES INTO DRIVING AND THEN MAYBE 1.5 HOURS IS, THERE IS NO CONSISTENCY. IT HAS HAPPENS FOR THE PAST YEAR. AND NOW TRACING FOR THE PAST SUMMER IT IS VERY ANXIOUS DRIVING THIS CAR. I AM NOT SURE MY CAR WAS CLEARED REALLY WITH ALL THE RECALLS.

COMING INTO WORK, IN BEGINNING TO TURN A CORNER THE STEERING WHEEL BEGAN TO SUDDENLY LOCK UP AND HAD TO LITERALLY FORCE IT TO TURN CORNER. IN TURNING THAT CORNER THE CAR COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN AND I DRIFTED INTO A GRASS AREA OUT OF TRAFFIC. THANKFULLY I WAS IN A LOW MPH SETTING. NOW 3 DAYS PRIOR TO THIS THE CAR HAS BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS STAYING IN PARK. EMERGENCY BRAKE HAS TO BE PUT ON BECAUSE THE CAR DRIFTS OUT OF PARK. 2 WEEKS PRIOR WE HAVE HAD THE O2 SENSORS REPLACED AS WELL AS THE BRAKE CYLINDERS ON THE CAR DUE TO HAVING TO FULLY JAM DOWN ON THE BRAKES IN ORDER FOR THE CAR TO STOP.

JULY 21, 2019 DRIVING ALONG ON A 35 MPH ROAD AND CAR JUST STOPPED ACCELERATING WHEN PUSHING GAS PEDAL. WRENCH INDICATOR APPEARED AND HAD TO PUT CAR IN NEUTRAL TO SAFELY PULL OVER. CAR DID RESTART AFTER SHUTTING OFF. SAME INCIDENT HAPPENED AN HOUR LATER GOING THE SAME SPEED. WE RESEARCHED AND FOUND THE NUMEROUS OTHER FORD EDGE SAME COMPLAINTS THAT THE THROTTLE BODY WAS IN NEED OF REPLACEMENT. HAD IT REPLACED AND CAR IS RUNNING SMOOTH WITH NO PROBLEMS. THIS WAS A VERY SCARY AND CONCERNING ISSUE. I CAN'T IMAGINE BEING ON THE EXPRESSWAY LIKE OTHERS HAVE EXPERIENCED. FORD MAKE THIS RIGHT AND PUT OUT A RECALL.

THE 2013 FORD EDGE SE HAS HAD THE ENGINE SHUT DOWN WHILE DRIVING TWICE. ONCE ON A TWO LANE ROAD AND ONCE ON I 95 INTERSTATE WITH OUR FAMILY IN IT. LUCKILY, WE WERE ABLE TO PULL OFF THE ROAD. WHEN IT SHUTS DOWN IT SHOWS WRENCH SYMBOL ON DASH AND SAYS SEE USERS MANUAL. THEN THE CAR RESTARTS AND DRIVES NORMALLY UNTIL THE NEXT EVENT. THIS IS A SEVERE SAFETY ISSUE AND WE WILL TAKE THE CAR IN TO THE NEAREST FORD DEALER AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. MANY WEB THREADS HAVE POINTED TO THE THROTTLE BODY AS BEING DEFECTIVE AND REPLACED. THEN THE ISSUE STOPS. HOPEFULLY THIS DESCRIPTION HELPS ANOTHER FAMILY FROM BEING INJURED ON THE ROADWAYS. IT IS UNDERSTANDABLE THAT CARS WILL HAVE ISSUES BUT ONCE FORD HAS NOTICE OF THIS PROBLEM WE HOPE THEY RESOLVE IT IN A TIMELY MANNER. THIS DESCRIPTION IS AN OFFICIAL NOTICE OF...

TL* THE CONTACT'S DAUGHTER OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND THE SERVICE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE AFTER APPROXIMATELY 3 ATTEMPTS. THE VEHICLE RESUMED NORMAL OPERATION, BUT WAS TOWED BY THE INSURANCE COMPANY TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE MECHANIC DIAGNOSED THAT THE AUTO THROTTLE BODY FAILED AND NEEDED TO REPLACED. THE INDEPENDENT MECHANIC CLEANED THE AUTO THROTTLE BODY, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. FORD OF CLERMONT (1101 EAST, W HWY 50, CLERMONT, FL 34711, (352) 394-6161) STATED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE CONTACT WAS ADVISED TO CALL NHTSA TO FILE A COMPLAINT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 59,000.

WE HAVE HAD OUR FORD EDGE FOR ABOUT 3 YEARS AND NO PROBLEMS UNTIL A FEW WEEKS AGO WHEN WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON AND LOST POWER TO THE ACCELERATOR. MANAGED TO GET THE CAR OVER TO THE SHOULDER TURNED THE IGNITION OFF AND BACK ON AND EVERYTHING SEEMED FINE. IT WAS THEN GOOD FOR A COUPLE OF WEEKS AND AGAIN DID IT 5 TIMES THE OTHER DAY WHEN I WAS DRIVING ON HIGHWAY 91E ONE OF THE MOST BUSY HERE IN CALIFORNIA.THIS CONDITION CAN PUT YOU IN A VERY UNSAFE SITUATION.

THE ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON INTERMITTENTLY WITH AN EVAP. LEAK CODE. WE'VE CHECKED ALL OF THE POSSIBLE ISSUES AND CAN NOT FIND THE PROBLEM.

WHEN STEPPING ON THE GAS PEDAL THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT DIE BUT WOULD NOT MOVE. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. THIS HAPPENED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS ONCE IN HIGHWAY TRAFFIC AND ONCE AT A BUSY INTERSECTION. THE DEALER TOLD ME IT WAS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND THAT THERE WAS NOTHING I COULD DO TO CAUSE THE PROBLEM OR PREVENT IT. DEALER REPLACED THE THROTTLE BODY ASSEMBLY FOR $524.00

BRAKES BECAME SPONGY 2 1/2 WEEKS AGO. TOOK TO FAMILY MECHANIC. THEY WERE UNABLE TO RECREATE AND STAYED THE BRAKE PADS ARE IN GREAT CONDITION. WENT ON SHORT VACATION AND THE BRAKES CONTINUED TO BE SPONGY BUT NOT EVERY TIME. WHEN WE RETURNED HOME IT BEGAN HAPPENING MORE FREQUENTLY AND A HISSING SOUND BEGAN WHEN APPLYING BRAKES. THEN YESTERDAY MORNING THE CAR SHUT OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY INTERSECTION BUT RESTARTED AFTER A FEW MINUTES. TOOK IT INTO MECHANIC AGAIN AND THEY WERE ABLE TO RECREATE BOTH ISSUES. AFTER RESEARCH THEY DISCOVERED A FORD EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR THIS ISSUE SO I TOWED IT TO NEAREST FORD DEALERSHIP. NOW THE GARAGE IS TELLING ME IT WILL COST BETWEEN $800 AND $1000 AND MY VIN IS NOT COVERED. THE INFO ONLINE STATES IT SHOULD BE COVERED. I PAY MY FINAL CAR PAYMENT IN 2 WEEKS AND MY ADDITIONAL WARRANTY THAT...

ON 4 SEPARATE OCCASIONS SINCE SEPTEMBER 2018, VEHICLE HAS SHUT DOWN WITHOUT WARNING WHILE TRAVELING ON MAJOR HIGHWAYS AND HEAVY TRAFFIC. GAS PEDAL DID NOT RESPOND WHEN PRESSED. LUCKY TO HAVE AVOIDED SERIOUS ACCIDENTS. FORD DEALER/REPAIR COULD NOT IDENTIFY OR REPEAT PROBLEM, BUT CLEARLY THERE IS A PROBLEM.

VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN SHORT DISTANCE IN TOWN (LESS THAN 10 MILES IN 10-20 DEGREE WEATHER), NO WARNING LIGHTS NO OVERHEATING OR SMOKE. 10 MINUTES AFTER CAR WAS PARKED AND SHUT OFF, CAR IGNITED IN DRIVEWAY IN ENGINE. OIL HAD NEVER EVEN BEEN CHANGED SINCE BOUGHT USED FROM DEALER A FEW MONTHS PRIOR; HAD PUT ON LESS THAN 2000 MILES SINCE PURCHASED. TOTAL LOSS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, THE VEHICLE LOST ACCELERATION. THE CONTACT PULLED THE VEHICLE OVER TO THE SHOULDER AND THEN DROVE TO DON VANCE FORD (14897 MO-38, MARSHFIELD, MO 65706). THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THAT THE POWER TRANSFER UNIT FAILED AND NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE VEHICLE STARTED TO LEAK OIL EVER SINCE IT WAS PURCHASED IN JUNE OF 2017. THE OIL LEAK HAS WORSENED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 154,802.

ON WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 9, 2019, MY 2013 FORD EDGE REPORTED AN "OVERHEATED COOLANT" MESSAGE AND WITHIN 2 SECONDS THE ENGINE LIGHT APPEARED, THE CAR IMMEDIATELY LOST THE ABILITY TO ACCELERATE AND BEGAN DECELERATING WHILE DRIVING AT 45 MPH ON A BUSY ROAD DURING NIGHT TIME RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC. THIS ENDANGERED MY SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF OTHER MOTORISTS THAT HAD TO QUICKLY AVOID HITTING MY CAR. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO APPLE FORD DEALERSHIP IN COLUMBIA MD AND THE TECHNICIAN INFORMED ME THE INTERNAL WATER PUMP HAD FAILED THAT DIRECTLY IMPACTED THE CAR PERFORMANCE ISSUES AND THE GRINDING NOISE. TO FIX THE WATER PUMP, HE STATED IT WOULD TAKE 17 LABOR HOURS TO REPAIR IT DUE TO HOW FORD DESIGNED THE WATER PUMP BEHIND THE ENGINE. ALSO, THIS REPAIR IS CAUSING ENGINE PROBLEMS. BOTTOM LINE HERE IS THAT THIS FLAWED DESIGNED IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND FORD SHOULD RECALL...

WHEN I PRESS MY BRAKES MY CAR WILL NOT STOP I HAVE PUT BRAKES ON IN THE PAST 6 MONTHS SO I KNOW MY BRAKES ARE GOOD. ALSO WHILE I AM DRIVING IT JUST TURNS OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF A TURN. ALSO WHEN I GET GAS IT WILL NEVER START RIGHT UP IT ALWAYS TAKES ME 3 OR 4 TIMES FOR THE CAR TO START

STEPPING ON THE GAS WILL NOT SHIP TO HIGHER GEAR - SEEMS STUCK IN 1 OR SECOND GEAR IS THIS A SHAFT LINKAGE ISSUE? - I SEE A RECALL.

OUR 2013 FORD EDGE HAS HAD THIS PROBLEM THREE TIMES IN A MONTH, TWICE ON FLAT ROADS, ONCE ON AN INCLINE/BRIDGE. YOU ARE DRIVING ALONG THE CAR IS MOVING, THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN YOU LOSE ALL POWER AND THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF. YOU CAN'T PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL AND RESTART, YOU HAVE TO PULL OVER, PUT THE CAR IN PARK, THEN THE CAR WILL START AGAIN. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS, AS THE CAR IS DIFFICULT TO CONTROL WITH NO POWER ANYTHING...ESPECIALLY WHEN IT HAPPENS ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY WHILE GOING 65 MPH, WITH A NARROW SHOULDER ON A BRIDGE, WITH CHILDREN IN THE CAR (LIKE IT DID TODAY). THERE ARE NO DIAGNOSTIC CODES SO THERE ISN'T MUCH TO GO ON, YOU JUST HAVE TO START GUESSING AT THE SOLUTION. IT IS OBVIOUS THIS IS A HUGE PROBLEM, THIS BOARD IS FILLED WITH THIS PROBLEM. YET FORD OR THE...

ON 6 OCCASIONS NOW MY 2013 FORD EDGE WHILE DRIVING HAS THROWN UP A CHECK ENGINE SIGN AND THE CAR WILL JUST PRETTY MUCH DIE WHILE IN HEAVY TRAFFIC TO THE POINT THAT I AM BARELY MOVING. THEN SECOND TIME IT HAPPENED I TOOK IT TO FORD THEY SAID IT WAS THE BATTERY SO I BOUGHT A NEW BATTERY AND STILL SINCE THEN IT CONTINUES TO DO IT ALL OF THESE WAY BEFORE MY WARRANTY WAS UP BUT FORD COULD NEVER FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT ON THE OTHER OCCURRENCES. ON 8/18/2018 THE CAR THREW UP A WRENCH SIGN AGAIN WHILE DRIVING AND THE CAR PRETTY MUCH SHUT DOWN I BARELY MADE IT OFF THE SIDE OF THE ROAD BEFORE BEING HIT BY ANOTHER CAR. ALL OCCURRENCES HAVE BEEN ON THE INTERSTATE HAD IT NOT BEEN FOR LUCK I DON'T KNOW HOW I KEPT FROM BEING HIT DUE TO THE...

2013 FORD EDGE WENT INTO LIMP HOME MODE. THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL DID NOT WORK. THE CAR IDLED ROUGHLY AND HAD NORMAL A/C, BRAKES AND STEERING. THE CAR WAS GOING 55 MPH ON A CROWDED ROADWAY.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN ROAD (HIGHWAY) CAR GOES INTO A LIMP MODE AND WILL TRUST START SLOWING DOWN AND EVENTUALLY COMES TO A SLOW CRAWL LESS THAN 5 MPG.

WHY DRIVING 40 MPH THE CAR ENGINE LIGHT FLASHED ON OIL PRESSURE LOW. THE ENGINE SHUT OFF AND THE STEERING LOCKED UP MAKING IT IN POSSIBLE TO GET THE CAR OFF THE ROAD. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. I HAD JUST DRIVEN ON 4 HWYS TO GET HOME 50 MINUTES. WHAT IF THIS HAPPENS WHY SOMEONE IS ON THE HIGHWAY.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE VEHICLE WILL EXHIBIT A FULL LOSS OF POWER. AFTER PULLING TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND TURNING THE VEHICLE OFF AND TRYING TO RESTART IT WILL EXPERIENCE A LONG AND HARD START. THE VEHICLE WILL DO THIS WEATHER YOU ARE DRIVING 5MPH OR 70 MPH. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND HAS ALMOST CAUSED ME TO BE IN SEVERAL ACCIDENTS WITH MY 3 CHILDREN IN THE CAR.

UNEXPECTED LOSS OF POWER AND WRENCH AND PARKING SHIFT MESSAGES SHOWN ON MY SUV DISPLAY. ON 03312018 MY FORD EDGE SPORT AWD 2013 SURPRISED ME WHEN AN UNEXPECTED LOSS OF POWER HAPPEN DURING AN SLOW MOTION IN A SECONDARY ROAD. UNABLE TO MANAGE MY VEHICLE I STOP AT THE NEAREST GAS STATION USING THE SLOPE BACKWARDS IN NEUTRO SHIFT UNTIL REACH THE GAS STATION BEHIND ME. THEN WHEN STOP I BEGAN TO READ VEHICLE BOOK AND SHUT DOWN THE VEHICLE AS RECOMMENDED. AFTER 30 MINS I RESTART THE VEHICLE AND THE LOSS POWER DISAPPEAR REASON WHY I DECIDE TO RETURN BACK TO MY HOME. WHEN I ENTER TO THE CONSUMER REPORT PAGE FROM MY PC AT HOME TO REQUEST INFO FOR ANY RECALL FOR THIS VEHICLE I FIND OUT THAT A RECALL NUMBER EXIST FOR THIS TYPE OF SUV. THE RECALL NUMBER IS 14S10 SINCE AUGUST2014 BUT I NEVER HAS...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, THE THROTTLE BODY MALFUNCTIONED. THE CONTACT DEPRESSED THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL SLIGHTLY AND THE VEHICLE RAPIDLY LUNGED FORWARD INDEPENDENTLY. DUE TO THE FAILURE, THE CONTACT STRUCK THE DASHBOARD AND WAS INJURED. MEDICAL ATTENTION WAS NOT RECEIVED. HUB CITY FORD IN LAFAYETTE, LOUISIANA WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND REFERRED THE CONTACT TO THE MANUFACTURER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,000.

I WAS DRIVING MY 2013 FORD EDGE IN TOWN 30 MPH ON A FOUR LANE ROAD WHEN THE ENGINE JUST DIED. I AM LUCKY I WAS NOT ON A BUSY HIGHWAY COULD HAVE END BADLY. FORD KNOWS OF THIS PROBLEM BUT WILL NOT HAVE A RECALL.

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE STALLS NUMEROUS TIMES WITHOUT WARNING AND YOU LOSE ALL CONTROL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL, AN AIRY HISSING NOISE WAS PRESENT AND THE BRAKE PEDAL EXTENDED TO THE FLOORBOARD. ON ONE OCCASION, THE ENGINE STALLED AND A MESSAGE DISPLAYED, INDICATING THAT NOT ENOUGH AIR HAD ENTERED THE ENGINE. THE FAILURE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED.

THE VEHICLE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT PRESSURE IS COMING ON AND JUST RECEIVED A FULL OR CHANGE. THE FUEL INLET LIGHT IS COMING ON AND ON A FULL TANK. THE RECALLS DON'T SHOW ON MY VECHILE AND I'M CONCERNED AS I HAVE 4 CHILDREN. THAT SAFETY OF MY PURCHASE VEHICLE IS NOT SAFE FROM ME OR MY FAMILY.

WHEN I ACCELERATE TO HIGHWAY SPEED I GET AN EXHAUST SMELL INSIDE THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT. I HAVE BEEN TO MY DEALER 4 TIMES AND THE PROBLEM CONTINUES. I BELIEVE THAT THIS IS A HEALTH ISSUE. I AM UPLOADING MY SERVICE RECORDS FOR YOUR PERUSAL. THIS BEGAN IN MAY 2016 AND CONTINUES TO THE PRESENT (12/2017).

THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 109,000.

CLICKING BUT NOT STARTING

IN THE LAST 3 MONTHS MY FORD EDGE HAS SHUT DOWN 6 TIMES AND GOES TO LUMP MODE. AFTER PULING TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND RESTARTING VEHICLE EVERYTHING IS FINE THIS HAPPENS WITHOUT WARNING AND AT INTERSTATE SPEEDS SO FAR I HAVE AVOIDED HAVING AN ACCIDENT BUT ITS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME.I HAVE CONTACTED FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE WITH NO HELP I HAVE TAKEN IT TO FORD FOR SERVICE AND THEY SAY THERE IS NOT ANY CODES IN SYSTEM AND WITHOUT THEM THERE ISN'T ANYTHING THEY CAN DO. AFTER DOING RESEARCH THERE ARE MULTIPLE REPORTS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM FORD NEEDS TO ADDRESSED THIS BEFORE SOMEONE GETS SERIOUSLY HURT

ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS VEHICLE FAILS TO START. WHEN ATTEMPTING TO START ENGINE IT WILL TURN OVER BUT NOT FIRE. TURNING SWITCH OFF THEN ATTEMPTING TO START ENGINE AGAIN USUALLY RESULTS IN THE ENGINE STARTING. WHEN THIS HAPPENS IT DOES NOT MATTER IF THE ENGINE IS HOT OR COLD, BRAND OF GAS USED OR LENGTH OF TIME OR MILES DRIVEN. THIS HAS OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES OVER THE LAST 6 MONTHS. VEHICLE HAS BEEN TAKEN TO DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPARTMENT TWICE. THEY HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE WRENCH WARNING INDICATOR FLASHED AND THE VEHICLE HAD A SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER. THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED TO RESET THE CODE. THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ALSO ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE THROTTLE BODY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER ISSUED A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN, BUT THERE WAS NO RECALL TO PROVIDE A SOLUTION. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

TRAVELLING AT 70 MPH ON FREEWAY, YELLOW WRENCH SHOWS AND VEHICLE SLOWS DOWN TO 2-5 MPH VERY QUICKLY. UNABLE TO ACCELERATE OR STEER. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION FORD NEEDS TO RECTIFY. TAKEN TO DEALERSHIP AND NO ERROR CODES OR RECURRING PROBLEM AT DEALERSHIP. THIS IS ALSO A PROBLEM AS HOW DO YOU HAVE A MASSIVE DECELERATION AND WARNING LIGHTS WITHOUT AN ERROR CODE REGISTERING.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WITH CRUISE SET A 70 MPH. I FELT THE CAR JERK AND LOOKED DOWN TO SEE THE ORANGE WRENCH IN THE CONTROL PANEL. THE VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY LOST POWER AND ACCELERATION. I WAS ABLE TO MOVE TO THE SHOULDER/COASTING TO GET OFF A VERY LARGE BRIDGE. DURING THIS PROCESS I ATTEMPTED TO PUT THE VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL AND TRY TO RESTART IT AND IT WOULD NOT. ONCE I GOT THE VEHICLE TO THE SHOULDER, I PLACED IT IN PARK AND TURNED IT COMPLETELY OFF. AFTER A MINUTE OR TWO I ATTEMPTED TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. IT STARTED FINE AND RAN FINE THE REST OF THE WAY TO MY EXIT...WHICH WAS ABOUT 37 MILES. (I DID NOT USE THE CRUISE AGAIN) I IMMEDIATELY TOOK IT TO O'REILLYS FOR THEM TO CHECK THE CODE AND THERE WAS NOT ANYTHING ACTIVE OR INACTIVE. THE ALSO CHECKED MY BATTERY,...

HAD THE CAR FOR A YEAR AND NEVER A PROBLEM UNTIL NOW. MY 2013 FORD EDGE HAS 43,000 ON IT. MY CAR WILL NOT START (BATTERY IS GOOD). SOMETIMES WILL CLICK BUT NOT START. SOMETIMES IT STRUGGLES TO START. SOMETIMES IT STARTS, RATTLES AND THEN SHUTS OFF BY ITSELF. I HAVE READ HORROR STORIES OF THIS PARTICULAR YEAR OF THE FORD EDGE. PEOPLE LOSING POWER OF CAR ON MAJOR HIGHWAYS, CUTTING OFF UNEXPECTEDLY!!! I'M TERRIFIED TO DRIVE MY CAR. I HAVE 4 KIDS WHO OFTEN ARE IN MY CAR WITH ME ESPECIALLY NOW THAT IT'S SUMMER TIME. AFTER READING COUNTLESS COMPLAINTS ABOUT SIMILAR PROBLEMS AND WORST, IT'S TIME FOR FORD TO RECALL ALL THESE CARS AND FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED AND THEY HAVE MAJOR LAWSUIT SINCE PROBLEMS HAVE BEEN DOCUMENTED TIME AND TIME AGAIN. I LOVED MY CAR UNTIL I READ ALL THE PROBLEMS AND COMPLAINTS....

THE BRAKES HAVE FAILED ON ME 3 TIMES NOW, THE DEALERSHIP CLAIMS THE BRAKE BOOSTER WAS BAD AND REPLACED IT THE FIRST TIME, THE SECOND TIME CLAIMS IT WAS A BAD PISTON INSIDE THE BREAK BOOSTER. THE BRAKES FAILED ONCE WHEN A CAR PULLED OUT IN FRONT OF ME AND I HAD TO SLAM ON THE BRAKES, THE SECOND TIME WAS DRIVING NORMALLY AND THE THIRD TODAY AFTER THE FRONT TIRES LOST TRACTION IN WET GRASS. THIS MAKES IT TO WERE YOU HAVE TO PUSH THE PEDDLE ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND HOPE THE CAR COMES TO A STOP.THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON EVERY TIME YOU ACCELERATE TO HARD (LIKE ENTERING AN INTERSTATE) THEN WILL GO AWAY AFTER A FEW DAYS. THE CODE THAT POPS UP FOR IT IS TURBO/SUPER CHARGER UNDER BOOST. THIS MAKES THE CAR REALLY SLUGGISH AND HARD TO GET UP TO SPEED.

2ND TIME IN MONTH THIS VEHICLE LOST ALL POWER IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD IN PERFECT ROAD CONDITIONS. JUNE 17TH 2017 AND JULY 16TH 2017 MY VEHICLE LOST ALL POWER AND WARNING LIGHT CAME ON WITH A PICTURE OF A WRENCH. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD THAT WILL GET SOMEONE KILLED AND HAS BEEN WELL DOCUMENTED. MUST FIX ASAP

THE ENGINE WILL NOT START WHEN THE TEMPERATURE OUTSIDE IS HIGH (105+ DEGREES). DURING THE HEAT OF THE DAY, ENGINE WILL NOT START (NO CLICKING, NO SOUNDS, NOTHING). RADIO COMES ON, AIR COMES ON, I AM ABLE TO CHANGE GEARS, ROLL DOWN WINDOWS, ETC. THERE ARE NO ISSUES IN THE MORNING OR EVENING WHEN THE DAY IS COOLER. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT DOES COME ON ONLY WHEN I AM HAVING THE ISSUE. ONCE CAR EVENTUALLY STARTS, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT GOES OFF.

WHILE ON THE FREEWAY, MY HAD COMPLETE ENGINE FAILURE AND I HAD LESS THEN 20 SECONDS TO PULL OVER TO THE SHOULDER HOWEVER EVERYTHING LOCKED UP AND I ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. I LET THE CAR SIT FOR 30 SECONDS AND RESTARTED THE CAR. I TOOK IT TO GET LOOKED AT BY 2 DIFFERENT SERVICE CENTERS AND THEY DIDNT FIND A PROBLEM. I DROVE IT AGAIN, AND IT HAPPENED 3 TIMES ON THE FREEWAY FROM SAN DIEGO TO ORANGE COUNTY. I HAD MY CAR TOWED, DID MY OWN RESEARCH AND LEARNED THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH FORD EDGES FOR MY SPECIFIC YEAR. THE MANUFACTURER IS NOT COVERING IT. I AM SELLING THIS CAR BECAUSE I AM FEARFUL FOR MY LIFE AND MY BABY GIRL THAT WAS IN THE CAR WITH ME.

SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER, NO SPECIAL ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS, ENGINE RPM DROPPED WITHOUT WARNING TO 400 RPM, CAR SPEED LIMITED TO 1 MPH. HAD TO QUICKLY PULL OFF 45 MPH, 4-LAND HWY. THRU HEAVY TRAFFIC TO REACH SIDE STREET (NO SHOULDER AVAILABLE). ENGINE CONTINUED TO RUN - BUT NO RESPONSE TO THROTTLE PEDAL. CONDITION KNOWN AS "LIMP MODE". TURNED ENGINE OFF, WAITED FEW MINUTES, STARTED BACK UP NORMALLY. DEALER UNABLE TO PULL ERROR CODE. HOWEVER, RESEARCH AND COMPLAINTS FILED ON-LINE SHOW THIS IS RECURRING PROBLEM WITH FORD ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY FAILURE. THIS IS DEFINATELY A SAFETY ISSUE. MANY OTHER FORD MODELS HAVE HAD RECALL FOR DEFECTIVE ETB'S - BUT NOT MY VIN. SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER IS INDICATED BY "YELLOW WRENCH" INDICATOR - BUT SUDDEN COMPLETE LOSS OF POWER IS SEVERE SAFETY ISSUE ON ROADS WITHOUT SHOULDER, OR WORSE, HEAVY MULTI-LANE TRAFFIC OR NARROW BRIDGES. FORD ACCEPTED COMPLAINT - BUT REFUSED...

2ND AND 3RD CYLINDERS IN MY 2.0 ECOBOOST ENGINE ARE MISFIRING. CAR HAS 63000 MILES. CAR SHAKES WHEN IDLING AND DOES NOT ACCELERATE PROPERLY. CAR DRIVES AT 6000 RPM WHEN GOING 60MPH ON THE HIGHWAY. CAR SHAKES AND JERKS WHEN DRIVING. CHANGED ENGINE COILS AND SPARK PLUGS AND THAT DID NOTHING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE FROM A COMPLETE STOP, THE VEHICLE'S SPEED REDUCED AND WOULD ONLY ACCELERATE TO 4 MPH. A WRENCH WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE CONTACT PULLED THE VEHICLE OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND TURNED OFF THE ENGINE. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED, IT RETURNED TO NORMAL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER (PINES FORD LINCOLN LOCATED AT 8655 PINES BLVD, PEMBROKE PINES, FL 33024; (954) 443-7000) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ELECTRIC THROTTLE BODY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AT 866-436-7332 AND STATED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL. CASE NUMBER: CAS12510115 WAS PROVIDED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 88,000.

ENGINE SUDDENLY STALLS WHILE DRIVING. YELLOW WRENCH LIGHT COMES ON AND THERE IS NO POWER WHEN APPLYING ACCELERATOR. HAS HAPPENED WHILE ON HIGHWAY (APPROX 70 MPH) AND SURFACE STREETS (APPROX 30 MPH). PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND TURN OFF THE ENGINE. THE RESTART WAS SPUTTERY BUT CAME ON AND NO MORE WRENCH LIGHT, THE VEHICLE RAN AS IF NOTHING HAPPENED. AFTER TAKING IT TO A DEALERSHIP WAS TOLD PROBLEM COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED AND NO FIX COULD BE MADE.

THE DOOR SENSORS IN THIS VEHICLE DO NOT SENSE THAT THE DOOR IS CLOSED WHEN IT IS. THIS LEADS TO BEING UNABLE TO LOCK THE DOORS WHILE DRIVING, IT ALSO CAUSES THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TO REMAIN ON WHEN THE CAR IS OFF EVEN AFTER THE DOOR IS CLOSED AND THE CAR IS LOCKED WHICH DRAINS THE BATTERY. OCCASIONALLY, THE DOOR WILL SENSE THAT IT IS CLOSED AFTER SLAMMING IT. THIS HAS LED TO AN ARM INJURY THAT I SUSTAINED WHEN ATTEMPTING TO DO THIS REPEATEDLY FROM THE INSIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE AND NOT A ONE-TIME OCCURRENCE.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY (DOING 70 MPH) MY VEHICLE RANDOMLY STALLED OUT. I WAS FORCED TO COAST TO A STOP, PULL OVER, AND TURN MY CAR OFF AND TURN IT BACK ON TO BEGIN DRIVING AGAIN. IT LATER HAPPENED AN HOUR LATER AT A STOP LIGHT WHILE MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN AND THEN AGAIN AT THE NEXT LIGHT ON THE ROAD. AFTER LOOKING UP POSSIBLE PROBLEMS, IT WAS FOUND THAT COUNTLESS OTHERS WITH THE SAME VEHICLE HAVE THE SAME STALLING PROBLEM WHILE DRIVING. THIS CREATES A SERIOUS AND DANGEROUS RISK FOR DRIVERS ON THE ROAD. I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE THE FORD DEALERSHIP LOOK AT MY VEHICLE, HOWEVER FROM OTHERS WHO HAVE SPOKEN ON THEIR EXPERIENCES WITH THE SAME PROBLEM, THE DEALERSHIP STATES THAT THEY CANNOT "RECREATE THE PROBLEM". THUS SENDING THE CUSTOMER ON THEIR WAY STATING THAT THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE. JUST 1...
