TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD EDGE. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IDLING, A RATTLING AND KNOCKING NOISE WAS PRESENT COMING FROM THE ENGINE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO ALL STAR FAMILY FORD (13301 INTERSTATE 27, AMARILLO, TX 79119) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ENGINE FLEX PLATE WAS CRACKED. THE FLEX PLATE WAS REPLACED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED APPROXIMATELY 18 MONTHS LATER. THE MANUFACTURER PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 24397434. NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS OFFERED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 58,000.

I STARTED MY CAR AND TURNED ON TO A BUSY STREET. MY CAR THEN SLOWED TO AN ALMOST IMMEDIATE STOP. I RECEIVED AN ERROR MESSAGE STATING HILL ASSIST UNAVAILABLE (I WASN'T ON A HILL AT ALL), THEN A WRENCH LIGHT APPEARED ALONG WITH AN ENGINE LIGHT AND AIRBAG LIGHT TURNED ON AS WELL. I WAS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE WHEN PUSHING THE PETAL. MEANWHILE THERE IS TRAFFIC BEHIND ME FORCED TO MOVE AROUND MY VEHICLE ALMOST CAUSING SERIOUS ACCIDENTS.

MY VEHICLE LOST POWER WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT 70MPH. WE HAD JUST LEFT A SCENIC OVERVIEW WHERE THE CAR HAD BEEN SHUT OFF. ACCELERATED UP A HILL AND DROVE FOR A FEW MORE MILES ON FLAT, STRAIGHT ROADWAY AND THE DASH WENT BLACK. THE CRUISE CONTROL WAS ON BUT NOT IN USE. LOST ALL POWER, HOWEVER STEERING WAS RESPONSIVE AND BRAKES WORKED.. DAY TEMP ~85 DEGREES. VEHICLE MILES=48000. STEERED TO SHOULDER, PUT CAR IN PARK AND HIT THE IGNITION BUTTON. THE CAR RESTARTED. CALLED MY LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT CARS ARE SO COMPUTERIZED NOW THAT THEY NEED TO BE REBOOTED OCCASIONALLY AND TO CALL BACK OF IT CONTINUES TO HAPPEN. PER CARGURUS SITE THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM SINCE 2009. MOST CONSUMERS CITING A DEFECTIVE THROTTLE BOTTLE ASSEMBLY. WHAT'S IT GOING TO TAKE TO GET THIS ON A RECALL? THIS IS A MAJOR DEFECT....

WHEN PULLING INTO A PARKING SPACE IN A PARKING LOT, I STEPPED ON THE BRAKE AND THE ENGINE SURGED AND SPEEDED AHEAD HITTING A BUILDING WHERE THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED.

AFTER DRIVING THE CAR UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS FOR THE FIRST 40K MILES IT STARTED TO MAKE RATTLING NOISES. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND IT HAD A BROKEN FLYWHEEL. 18K MILES LATER IT HAS ANOTHER BROKEN FLYWHEEL

I HAVE OWNED THE VEHICLE FOR 9 MONTHS. 1ST OCCURRENCE ON 3/31/19, ACCELERATING TO MERGE ON HIGHWAY AND VEHICLE SHUDDERED, LOST ENGINE POWER AND WENT INTO LIMP MODE. I LIMPED IT HOME AND AFTER ABOUT 10 MINUTES I STARTED THE VEHICLE AND IT DROVE FINE... UNTIL 2ND OCCURRENCE ON 4/4/19... THIS TIME WAS DRIVING ABOUT 35-40 MPG APPROACHING AN INTERSECTION WHEN THE VEHICLE LOST ALL ENGINE POWER AND I COASTED TO THE STOP LIGHT, PUT IN PARK, SHUT OFF VEHICLE AND RESTARTED... IT THEN DROVE NORMALLY. I HAVE BEEN LUCKY TWICE. THE 1ST OCCURRENCE WAS SCARY AS I WAS JUST GETTING ON THE HIGHWAY WITH CARS APPROACHING ME FROM BEHIND VERY QUICKLY NOT KNOWING THAT I COULD ONLY GO ABOUT 20MPH. THE 2ND OCCURRENCE I WAS VERY LUCKY TO HAVE GOTTEN A RED LIGHT JUST AS I WAS COASTING TO THE INTERSECTION. AT THIS POINT I DON'T TRUST MY VEHICLE...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD EDGE. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, A RATTLING NOISE WAS HEARD FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE FLEX PLATE WAS CRACKED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED APPROXIMATELY 40,000 MILES LATER. TALLASSEE FORD (1618 GILMER AVE, TALLASEE, AL) AND THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 105,328.

WE'VE BEEN EXPERIENCING AN INTERMITTENT EXHAUST AND SULFUR ODOR IN THE CABIN OF OUR VEHICLE SINCE WE PURCHASED IT LAST JULY. THE ODOR IS PRESENT WHILE RUNNING AND PARKED, WHILE IDLING AT STOP LIGHTS, WHILE COASTING ALONG WITH TRAFFIC ON THE FREEWAY, WHILE ACCELERATING OR NOT, SPEED DOES NOT SEEM TO MATTER. THE FUMES AND ODOR HAVE GOTTEN STRONGER AND HAVE BECOME SO STRONG THAT WE CAN'T EVEN DRIVE THE VEHICLE WITH THE WINDOWS DOWN. OUR WHOLE FAMILY HAS EXPERIENCED HEADACHES AND SEVERE NAUSEA WHILE RIDING IN THE CAR ON BOTH LONG AND SHORT TRIPS. MY DAUGHTER ALMOST PASSED OUT ON A RECENT HOUR LONG DRIVE. WE BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO THE SERVICE CENTER TWICE NOW. THE FIRST TIME THEY REPLACED THE CABIN AIR FILTER. THE VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY AT THE DEALER SERVICE CENTER. AFTER WE MENTIONED THE SULFUR SMELL WE WERE TOLD THEY WOULD HAVE TO CONTACT FORD MOTOR...

OWNED FOR 5 MONTHS. ENGINE HAS DIED TWICE WHILE DRIVING LIKE OTHERS WITH DISPLAY SHOWING "FULL POWER ACCESSORY ACTIVE". BOTH HAVE BEEN AT LOW SPEED (AROUND 5-10 MPH) AND HAVE HAD TO PLACE IN PARK BEFORE I COULD RESTART THE ENGINE. ONE WAS DECELERATING FROM ~25 MPH ON A RESIDENTIAL STREET, AND THE OTHER WAS WHILE DRIVING THROUGH AN APARTMENT COMPLEX. TAKES ABOUT 30 SECONDS TO FIGURE OUT WHAT IS HAPPENING AND RESTART.

JUST DRIVING DOWN RURAL ROAD DOING 45 MPH, ENGINE JUST SHUT OFF, WARNING CAME UP SAID TRANSMISSION NOT IN PARK, PUT IN PARK IT RESTARTED AND WAS FINE THE REMAINDER OF TRIP

WHEN DRIVING MY VEHICLE, THE RPMS SKY ROCKET BUT WON'T CHANGE. IT'S NOT SHIFTING GEARS AS AN AUTOMATIC IS SUPPOSED TO. ALSO, THE ENGINE HAS BEEN MAKING A WEIRD NOISE ON AND OFF AND WHEN WE TOOK IT IN, THEY TURNED IT ON AND PRESSED THE GAS AND SAID IT WAS FINE. NEVER HAD IT ON RECORD OR ANYTHING. THE FUEL PUMP WENT OUT ABOUT 23K AND NOW THE CAR IS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE AT 50K WITH THE FUEL PUMP OR THE SAME SYMPTOMS AS IT DID BEFORE HAVING THE CAR LUNGE FORWARD OR VIBRATE.

SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IT HAS BEEN MAKING A JERKING EFFECT AFTER IT PASSES 1ST GEAR TO 2ND. THE JERKING EFFECT SEEMS TO BE COMING FROM THE MOTOR. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THE DEALER SAID THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE. TO THIS DAY IT STILL HAS THE JERKING EFFECT.

LOST ANTIFREEZE..NO LEAKS..2 QTS WEEK..HOLDS 21PSI TEST ONE HOUR..OVERHEATED ONE TIME WHILE IDLING IN DRIVWAY

MY CAR HAS LOST ALL POWER WHILE DRIVING MULTIPLE TIMES. THE DASH SAYS "FULL POWER ACCESSORY ACTIVE". I HAVE TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND RESTART IT. THE LAST TIME I WAS DRIVING 60 MPH ON A BUSY HIGHWAY SO THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION ESPECIALLY IF I WAS SOMEWHERE THAT DIDN'T HAVE A AN AREA FOR ME TO PULL OVER OR HAD I BEEN STUCK IN THE MIDDLE LANE! THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED IMMEDIATELY!

WHEN MERGING ONTO THE INTERSTATE AND YOU ACCELERATE AND GO FROM APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH TO 75 PMH THERE IS ALWAYS A SMOKING -BURNING SMELL COMING OUT OF THE A/C EXHAUST VENTS INSIDE THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT OF THE CAR. I HAD AN EXPLORER BEFORE AND IT DID THE SAME THING. I THOUGHT MY ENGINE WAS GOING TO BLOW UP EVEN THOUGH IT ONLY HAD APPROXIMATELY 30K MILES ON IT SO I TRADED IT. NOW THIS EDGE IS DOING THE SAME THING ... IS THIS AN ONGOING PROBLEM THAT IS TRYING TO BE REPAIRED SOON. I ASKED IF THE 2018'S HAD THIS PROBLEM THE THE FORD DEALERSHIP SAID YES. SAME THING HAPPENS WHEN I PASS SOMEONE ON A REGULAR HIGHWAY ANY TIME YOU ACCELERATE YOUR SPEED FROM A LOWER SPEED TO A HIGHER ONE. THANKS

WE HAD HAD A PROBLEM FOR OVER A YEAR.THE AC MAKES LOUD NOISES AND CUTS OUT AND STOPS WORKING IT WILL SPEED UP SLOW DOWN WITH NO TOUCHING.THE BLUETOOTH DOESN'T WORK PROPERLY AND THE PHONE DOESN'T SINK OR DROPS CALLS.THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON!!!!WE FIRST TOOK TO OUR LOCAL DEALERSHIP KELLY FORD IM MELBOURNE THEY COULDN'T GET IT TO FAIL.GAVE US THE CAR BACK AND WERE RUDE,MY WIFE CALLED CUSTOMER CARE AND MADE A COMPLAINT AND NOTHING WAS DONE.WE THEN SENT VIDEOS OF THE ISSUES.

EXHAUST IN CABIN WAY BEYOND PERMISSIBLE LIMITS FROM DAY 1. I SUSPECTED THE FIREWALL WAS ALLOWING EXHAUST INTO INTERIOR, BUT THEN I STARTED SUSPECTING THE REAR WAS ALLOWING EXHAUST IN DUE TO AN AIR EDDY RECIRCULATING BEHIND THE VEHICLE ALLOWING EXHAUST INTO THE CABIN VIA LOWER REAR DOOR SEAL NOT SEALING TIGHT ENOUGH VIA THE AUTOMATED DOOR CLOSURE NOT SUFFICIENTLY FORMING A SEAL.

ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY FAILURE. VEHICLE LOST ALL ENGINE POWER AND ENTERED LIMP MODE AT 70 MPH ON HIGHWAY. WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON & NO NOTICE GIVEN. HAD TO IMMEDIATELY PULL OVER TO SIDE OF HIGHWAY. NEARLY LOST CONTROL OF VEHICLE AND ALMOST CRASHED. DEALER STATED THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY FAILED AND DEEMED CAR UNFIT/UNSAFE FOR TRAVEL ON THE ROAD. LEFT VEHICLE AT FORD DEALER TO REPLACE THROTTLE BODY.

MULTIPLE TIMES THE CAR SUDDENLY LOST ALL POWER. ENGINE SHUTS OFF, POWER STEERING GONE AND ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS ON THE DASH LIGHT UP. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON EXPRESSWAYS, CITY STREETS AND COUNTRY ROADS, EACH TIME IMPEDING THE FLOW OF TRAFFIC AND PEOPLE DON'T RESPOND WELL TO ME WHEN THIS HAPPENS. I HAVE COME VERY CLOSE TO BEING HIT BY OTHER CARS. EACH TIME I HAVE PUSHED THE STARTER BUTTON TO SHUT IT OFF EVEN THOUGH IT IS NOT RUNNING AND I WAIT A FEW MINUTES. I THEN RESTART THE CAR AND IT SEEMS TO FUNCTION AGAIN, FOR A WHILE. THE DEALERSHIP WANTS TO PLAY GAMES ABOUT THIS ISSUE, " NOT DOING IT FOR OUR TECHNICIAN". I SEE LOADS OF COMPLAINTS JUST LIKE MINE WITH NOTHING BEING DONE. COME ON, IT'S RECALL TIME,,,BEFORE I, MY WIFE, FAMILY OR SOMEONE SUFFERS SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH BECAUSE OF THIS KNOWN PROBLEM WITH...

ENGINE GOES TO IDLE WHILE UNDERWAY, ORANGE WRENCH APPEARS ON PANEL, NO RESPONSE FROM THROTTLE. HAPPENS WITHOUT WARNING AT ANY TIME, HIGH OR LOW SPEED. EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. I CANNOT IMAGINE WHY THERE HAS BEEN NO RECALL ON THIS.

MY 2015 FORD EDGE SUDDENLY LOST POWER WITHOUT ANY WARNING AS I WAS DRIVING AT A SLOW SPEED ON MY RESIDENTIAL STREET. FORTUNATELY I WAS NOT IN A HIGH-SPEED TRAFFIC AREA, AS THIS SITUATION IS OBVIOUSLY A SERIOUS ONE. THE NEXT DAY I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALER AND THEY WERE AWARE OF THIS ISSUE HAPPENING IN FORD VEHICLES. IT WAS A DEFECTIVE THROTTLE BODY AND THEY WERE ABLE TO REPLACE IT THE SAME DAY. I AM HOPING THIS NEW ONE WILL NOT POSE THE SAME PROBLEM. I AM ALSO SEEING ONLINE THAT THIS SAME ISSUE HAS BEEN OCCURRING IN THE 2015 FORD EDGE, AS WELL AS OTHER FORD VEHICLES IN PRIOR MODEL YEARS. I CANNOT UNDERSTAND WHY THERE IS NOT A RECALL ON THESE VEHICLES, AND IF THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN OUT THERE FOR SEVERAL YEARS ALREADY, WHY IS THERE NOT A PERMANENT FIX? THE VEHICLE LOSES POWER...

SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER ON A WHILE DRIVING DOWN BUSY ROAD.

VEHICLE LOST POWER, ENGINE CONTINUED TO RUN BUT WOULD NOT MOVE. PROBLEM STARTED AFTER STOPPING AT LIGHT. DEALERSHIP SAID THROTTLE BODY PROBLEM AND RESET COMPUTER. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS BUT IT DOES NOT STORE CODE, SO THEY WILL NOT FIX IT. I HAVE SAFETY CONCERNS ABOUT GETTING VEHICLE IN TRAFFIC.

I PURCHASED A NEW 2015 FORD EDGE TITANIUM FWD IN JUNE 2015. IT STALLED TWICE IN THE 1ST MONTH I OWNED IT AT A STOP LIGHT AND THEN A STOP SIGN. THEN IT DIDN'T STALL AGAIN UNTIL SEP 2016 AFTER EXITING I-79 AND COMING TO A STOP TO TURN. ON ALL OCCASIONS THE ENGINE START BUTTON WAS FLASHING GREEN AND THE DASH WAS FULLY LIT UP WITH A NOTICE THAT FULL ACCESSORY POWER WAS AVAILABLE. ON ALL TIMES THE ENGINE RESTARTED OK. THE DEALER COULD NOT FIND ANY COMPUTER FAULT CODES AND EVEN PUT ON A FLIGHT RECORDER(BLACK BOX) BUT IN 2 WEEKS IT DIDN'T STALL SO I COULD NOT SET ANY DATA BY PUSHING THE JOY STICK. RATHER THAN DO NOTHING I ASKED IF THE COULD PERFORM TSB 15-0123 PCM RECALIBRATION WITH THE LATEST SOFTWARE JUST TO BE SURE THAT WASN'T A PROBLEM THAT I NOTICED ON OTHER WEBSITES...

I DECIDED TO TAKE IT TO THE NEAREST FORD DEALER THE NEXT MORNING HOWEVER THEY COULD NOT HELP ME TILL WEDNESDAY OR THURSDAY OF THE FOLLOWING WEEK. I DECIDED TO...

CAR DIED WHILE DRIVING, BECAUSE I WAS IN TRAFFIC AT 30 MPH, GOING DOWNHILL ON 20% GRADE, I THREW THE CAR IN NEUTRAL AND WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE CAR. THIS ACTION , ACCORDING TO DEALER, CLEARED THE COMPUTER AND NO INCIDENT WAS FOUND. AFTER 8 DAYS OF SUPPOSED DIAGNOSIS THEY TRIED TO GET ME TO PAY A DEPOSIT OF 500.00 TO PUT A DATA RECORDER IN MY VEHICLE AND SAID I WOULD HAVE TO TRIGGER IT FIRST BEFORE IT WOULD RECORD FUTURE INCIDENTS, WOULD THIS BE BEFORE I TRY TO SAVE MY LIFE FROM THE TRACTOR TRAILER BEHIND ME MOVING AT 70+MPH

I WAS STARTING TO DRIVE ON THE BUSY STREET AT ABOUT 30 MPH WHEN OF THE SUDDEN THE VEHICLE SLOWED DOWN TO MAYBE 5 MPH WITHIN 2 SECONDS, MIND YOU MY FOOT WAS PRESSING THE GAS PEDAL AT THE TIME THE CAR LOST SPEED, LIGHT COMES ON, SOMETHING TO DO WITH HILL ASSISTANCE, THEN THE WRENCH LIGHT COME ON, LUCKILY THIS HAPPENED JUST BEFORE THE INTERSECTION AND I DECIDED TO GO TO THE LEFT TURN LANE.

WHILE TRAVELING A FREEWAY AT 70 MPH, THE ENGINE CUT OUT. I WAS IN THE OUTSIDE LANE, LUCKILY. I WAS ABLE TO DRIFT OVER INTO THE PARKING LANE.

THE NEXT DAY IT HAPPENED TWICE AND IN VARIOUS CONDITIONS: FROM A STOP, AND THEN WHEN I WAS ACCELERATING TO GET ONTO A FREEWAY. WHEN I DROVE TO MY HOME 200 MILES AWAY. I WAS CAREFUL AND STAYED IN THE OUTSIDE LANE OF THE INTERSTATE. JUST BEFORE HOME, OUT OF THE BLUE, THE ENGINE CUT OFF. I WAS ABLE TO DRIFT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND STOP AND RESTART AND GET HOME.

ON 26 JULY 2016, I ENCOUNTERED A SUDDEN AND INEXPLICABLE PROBLEM WITH MY VEHICLE THAT INVOLVED THE LOSS OF THE ABILITY TO ACCELERATE. . . WHILE I WAS IN TRAFFIC ON A BUSY ROAD. THE GEAR SHIFT WAS STILL IN THE 'DRIVE' POSITION WHEN THE INCIDENT OCCURRED REQUIRING ME TO DRIFT INTO A DRIVEWAY/PARKING LOT, NARROWLY AVERTING AN ACCIDENT.
