The contact owns a 2014 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while driving at slower speeds, the vehicle hesitated while accelerating with the accelerator pedal depressed, and the vehicle to respond as needed. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The contact stated the vehicle was consuming an excessive amount of fuel, with an abnormal burning metal odor entering the cabin of the vehicle through the air vents. The contact scanned the vehicle with an OBD-2 scanner and retrieved error codes for the Power Control Module, Steering Column Control Module, and Power Train Control Module. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer to be diagnosed; however, the cause of the failure was unknown because the contact had previously cleared the error codes twice. The contact related the failure to Manufacturer Recall: 24E10; however, the VIN was not included. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure...
I have had issues with this car since a few months from me getting it. My rear camera wouldn't work half the time and sometimes turns the images upside down. My heat and cooling system started malfunctioning and the driver's side doesn't blow or temp the same as the passenger side. It has been like that at least 2 of the 4 years I have had this car and have taken it in multiple times and spent thousands of dollars to get it fixed and it is still not fixed and no one can seem to tell me the problem. My car also restarts itself and it won't turn off. A couple of months into getting the car, my car literally shut off while I was on the freeway and I had to pull over. Restart it. I took it in to Ford and they said it was fine. Throughout...
The contact owns a 2014 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the steering wheel and vehicle were shaking abnormally. There was an abnormal clunking sound detected. There were no warning lights illuminated.

I had my oil changed last year upon seeing some suspicious activity during this oil change at Walmart, they were dishonest and lied to my face about my skid plate missing bolts underneath. I told them there's is no way my mobile mechanic put all four back on last night after it fell off while driving. So they lied to me. I filled a complaint. My car started driving weird. Then about two weeks later my car while in park, out of no where wouldn't reverse the steering wheel way locked it hard to turn. And sounded like a broken garbage disposal. It wasn't drivable.i have a2014 Ford edge sel.

FORTUNATELY, SHE WAS NOT ON A FREEWAY OR SHE COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED. SHE REALIZED THAT EVEN THOUGH THE ENGINE WAS STILL RUNNING, THE GAS PEDAL WOULD NOT WORK. I CALLED PLANET FORD IN HOUSTON WHERE WE PURCHASED THE CAR AND I ROUTINELY HAVE THE CAR MAINTAINED. ANTHONY, THE QUICK LANE MANAGER, TOLD ME TO BRING THE CAR IN. BY THEN, WE HAD CHECKED THE INTERNET FOR SIMILAR OCCURRENCES AND WE HAD FOUND THAT THERE HAD BEEN THOUSANDS OF SIMILAR REPORTS AND MILLIONS OF DOLLARS PAID BY FORD IN LAWSUITS. ANTHONY TOLD ME THAT HE WOULD FIX THE CAR...
