  VEHICLE IN MOTION ON CITY ROAD WHEN VEHICLE ALL OF A SUDDEN MAKES LOUD/HARD CLANK NOISE AND IMMEDIATELY LOSES POWER - ALMOST LIKE IT STARTED TOWING A TRAILER! LOSS OF POWER, WRENCH LIGHT, TPS LIGHT, AIRBAG LIGHT ALL COME ON, SPEEDOMETER STOPS WORKING. PULLED OVER, LOUD/HARD CLANK SOUND WITH EVERY GEAR CHANGE P-2. VEHICLE HAD DISPLAYED NO ISSUES PRIOR TO THIS. DROPPED VEHICLE OFF AT MECHANIC, WHEN HE LOOKED AT IT NEXT MORNING, VEHICLE IS RUNNING PERFECT. I AM GREATLY CONCERNED ABOUT WHAT APPEARS TO BE A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE WITH THIS CAR. THERE ARE MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE TO BE FOUND ALL OVER THE INTERNET WITH NO FIXES KNOWN. FORD NEEDS TO ISSUE A RECALL AND FIX THIS ASAP BEFORE SOMEONE GETS SERIOUSLY HURT OR IS KILLED FROM THE EXTREME LOSS OF POWER THE VEHICLE IS SUFFERING FROM WHEN THIS HAPPENS.

  MY CAR STARTED SPUTTERING ON FREEWAY ON CHRISTMAS NIGHT. SMELLED BURNING. HAD IT TOWED TO MY MECHANIC. HE INFORMED ME IGNITION COILS BURNED OUT. HE REPLACED THEM BUT CALLED TODAY AND INFORMED ME, CAR WILL RUN FINE AND THEN ONE OR MORE COILS WILL BURN OUT AGAIN CAUSING THE PROBLEM. HE LOOKED COMPLAINTS UP ONLINE AND FOUND HUNDREDS OF THEM AS I HAVE ALSO. WE CALLED THE DEALERSHIP TO SEE IF THERE WAS A RECALL ON THIS ISSUE BECAUSE THERE WERE SO MANY COMPLAINTS BUT NOTHING. (I FOUND OUT I HAD 2 OTHER RECALLS I NEVER GOT A NOTICE FOR.. GREAT)... READING THE COMPLAINTS BELOW FROM CUSTOMERS WHO HAS HAD THE EXACT PROBLEM IS WORRISOME BECAUSE THE DEALERSHIP IS AWARE OF THE ISSUE BUT STILL HAS DONE NOTHING TO FIX THIS. MY CAR IS STILL IN THE SHOP. IF THIS CAN ONLY BE FIXED AT THE DEALERSHIP AS DESCRIBED BY OTHER COMPLAINTS, I AM SCREWED AS THIS IS VERY COSTLY. FORD SHOULD BE REPLACING THIS AS THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE. I NEVER BOUGHT A FORD DUE TO THEIR REPUTATION AND I GAVE THEM A CHANCE. I SEE WHY NOW ... I ONLY HAVE 69,000 MILES ON IT....

• 12/28/2019· ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

  TAILLIGHT WAS INOPERATIVE, PASSENGER SIDE, ALONG WITH DIRECTIONAL SIGNAL. THINKING IT WAS A BURNED OUT BULB, I REMOVED THE TAIL LIGHT CONNECTOR FROM THE PLASTIC HOUSING. I NOTICED THAT THE BULB HAD TOTALLY FUZED ITSELF TO THE CONNECTOR. WHILE THE BULB FILAMENTS APPEAR INTACT, THE BULB AND CONNECTOR HAD GENERATED ENOUGH HEAT TO ESSENTIALLY MELT THE BASE OF THE BULB TO THE CONNECTOR INTO ONE UNIT. ODDLY ENOUGH, WHEN LOOKING FOR THE CAUSE OF WHY SO MUCH HEAT WOULD BE GENERATED, I GOOGLED "CAR TAIL LIGHT CONNECTOR AND BULB MELTED". SURPRISE SURPRISE, I WAS DIRECTED TO THE FORD EDGE FORUM WHERE THIS SEEMS TO BE A VERY COMMON COMPLAINT. NATURALLY, I NEEDED TO GET THIS FIXED QUICKLY AND MY HUSBAND WAS GOING TO THE SALVAGE YARD FOR UNRELATED PARTS, SO I ASKED HIM TO SEE IF HE COULD FIND A CONNECTOR, SINCE THIS PARTICULAR ITEM WAS COMMON TO MANY, MANY FORD AND MERCURY VEHICLES. HE FOUND T FORD FOCUS' THAT USED THIS CONNECTOR, AND BOUGHT THEM. OF NOTE, THE TWO CONNECTORS (1 WAS A "SPARE") HE BROUGHT HOME WERE BOTH SHOWING SIGNS OF DISCOLORATION OF THE PLASTIC ON THE CONNECTOR. THE FORUMS SAY FORD HAS NEGATIVE KNOWLEDGE OF THIS, BUT YOU GOTTA WONDER. DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON THE POOR QUALITY OF THE CHEAP PLASTIC RETAINER CLIP USED TO KEEP THE WIRING HARNESS CONNECTED TO THE CONNECTOR. I REMOVED FOUR UNITS. ALL FOUR RETAINER CLIPS BROKE OR DISINTEGRATED. MY FEAR IT THE POTENTIAL OF A FIRE HAZARD AND SIGNIFICANT ELECTRICAL FAILURE AS THIS IS NOT A SIMPLE BULB REPLACEMENT. ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED. I DO HAVE THE BULB IN QUESTION IF YOU NEED ME TO SEND IT IN.

  "TAKATA RECALL" I RECEIVED THE FIRST RECALL NOTICE JULY 2016. I JUST RECEIVED A SECOND NOTICE DATED DECEMBER 2017. UNDER THE HEADING WHAT SHOULD YOU DO? ON THIS SECOND NOTICE, SAYS "DO NOT ALLOW ANYONE TO SIT IN THE FIRST ROW PASSENGER SEAT. THE AIR BAG INFLATOR COULD RUPTURE DURING DEPLOYMENT IN A CRASH AND CAUSE INJURIES OR DEATH." I OFTEN HAVE TO DRIVE WITH FIVE PEOPLE IN THE VEHICLE. NOT ALLOWING ANYONE TO SIT IN THE FIRST ROW PASSENGER SEAT IS NOT AN OPTION AND I CANNOT AFFORD TO PURCHASE DIFFERENT VEHICLE. THIS NOTICE ALSO SAYS THAT REMEDY PARTS HAVE BEEN DELAYED. AS LONG AS IT IS TAKING FORD TO REMEDY THIS SITUATION, WHY ARE THEY NOT REQUIRED TO FURNISH LONER VEHICLES.

  TAKATA INFLATORS, FORD RECALL 16S26. I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET THIS RECALL TAKEN CARE OF. THE DEALER, AND FORD TELL ME DIFFERENT STORIES. FORD PROMISED A PAID FOR RENTAL IF YOU ARE UNCOMFORTABLE DRIVING, THE DEAL SAID NO TO A RENTAL OR A LOANER. I HAVE BEEN ON A "WAITING LIST" FOR PARTS FOR ALMOST A YEAR, AND THEY STILL DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS. I RECEIVE NO COMMUNICATION FROM THE DEALER EXCEPT IF I CALL TO CHECK. SOMETIMES I AM TOLD I AM NOT ON THE LIST, OTHER TIMES, THERE ARE NO PARTS, ALL TIMES NO RENTAL COVERAGE OR LOANERS AVAILABLE. I LUCKILY HAVE NOT HAD AN ACCIDENT, BUT I AM SO FRUSTRATED WITH THE DEALER AND FORD I AM READY TO GET RID OF THE CAR AND GET A DIFFERENT BRAND. THEY DO NOT SEEM TO CARE ABOUT SAFETY OR COMMUNICATION. IT IS TERRIFYING TO GET A RECALL FROM FORD SAYING NOT TO DRIVE YOUR CAR DUE TO LIFE THREATENING SAFETY RECALL, BUT THE DEALER SAYS IT ISN'T A BIG DEAL. WHO DO YOU BELIEVE, BUT I AM NO LONGER FEELING LIKE I SHOULD BE PATIENT OR GIVE THEM THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT. I AM LOOKING FOR ALTERNATIVES TO THIS ISSUE.

  I WAS TRAVELING AROUND 40 MPH ON A STATE HIGHWAY WHEN SPUTTERING AND VIBRATION ISSUES STARTED WITH 2007 FORD EDGE AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. STILL DROVE VEHICLE TO MY MECHANIC WHICH STATED COIL BURNED OUT AND SENT SURGE OF POWER TO THE PCM. MECHANIC STATED DESIGN OF PCM WOULDN'T STOP THE FIRING OF COIL AND NOT TO DRIVE VEHICLE ANY FURTHER OR IT WILL BURN TO THE GROUND. MECHANIC STATED ONLY THE FORD DEALERSHIP CAN INSTALL A NEW ONE AND REST THE CAR TO GET IT RUNNING. TOWED VEHICLE TO FORD DEALERSHIP WHO STATED THEY HAVE A TSB ISSUED FOR THIS PROBLEM AND THEY WILL NEED TO REPLACE THE PCM AND ALL 6 COILS BECAUSE THEY HAVE ALL MELTED. FORD DEALERSHIP STATED THIS WAS AN ON GOING PROBLEM DUE TO A FAULTY DESIGN OF THE PCM THAT WHEN A COIL BURNS OUT (COMMON WEAR AND TEAR AND $100 TO $200 FIX) THE PCM DOESN'T STOP FIRING TO THE COILS WHICH COULD CAUSE THE CAR TO CATCH FIRE. ESTIMATE TO FIX THE PCM AND ALL SIX COILS WAS $2,958. REASON FOR COMPLAINT - I UNDERSTAND WEAR AND TEAR ON A VEHICLE, BUT DUE TO A DESIGN ISSUE IN THE FORD/MERCURY/LINCOLN PCM, IT CAUSED EXTENSIVE DAMAGE AND REPAIR TO THE CAR AND POTENTIAL TO BURN TO THE GROUND. $100 FIX WITH PROPER DESIGN AND NOW $2,958 DUE TO PCM ISSUE. I AM REQUESTING THIS ISSUE TO BE REVIEWED FOR REIMBURSEMENT BY THE MANUFACTURER OR RECALL ISSUED. THANKS YOU FOR YOUR TIME.

  THE 2007 FORD EDGE AWD 93,000 MILES DEVELOPED A SLIGHT HUMMING IN THE FRONT END, IT ACTUALLY SOUNDED LIKE A CUPPED TIRE OR A WHEEL BEARING. WE IMMEDIATELY CALLED OUR MECHANIC AND HAD IT INSPECTED. UPON INSPECTION HE INFORMED US THAT THE PTU WAS RUINED, WE HAVE HAD THIS VEHICLE FROM NEW AND SERVICED IT AS REQUIRED AND ONLY DRIVE IT ON THE HIGHWAY APPROX 45 MILES PER DAY. IT TURNS OUT THAT THE PTU (TRANSFER CASE) OVERALL HAS A ISSUE WITH THE SEALS THAT HOLD THE FLUID (OUTER SEAL=GEAR OIL, INNER SEAL= TRANNY FLUID) INSIDE THE UNIT, THE MECHANIC SAID THAT HE'S DONE SO MANY OF THE SEAL REPLACEMENTS THAT AT ONE POINT THAT WAS ALL HE WAS DOING IN A DAY AT THE DEALERSHIP. THE REAL ISSUE IS THAT WHEN THE SEAL GOES YOU CAN'T TELL BECAUSE IT LEAKS DIRECTLY ONTO THE EXHAUST AND BURNS OFF AS YOUR DRIVING. IF WE WERE INFORMED OF THE LEAKY SEAL WE COULD HAVE HAD THE SEALS REPLACED FOR ABOUT $200, BUT UNFORTUNATELY WE FOUND OUT THE HARD (EXPENSIVE) WAY $2000. IM A PERSON THAT TAKES CAR MAINTENANCE VERY SERIOUSLY, WE HAVE A CONSTRUCTION COMPANY AND HAVE HAD ABOUT 14 DIFFERENT FORD MODELS OVER THE YEARS, AND ITS BECOMING MORE APPARENT ANY FORD BUILT AFTER 2004 IS FILLED WITH ISSUES (TO ME FACTORY DEFECTS) THAT THEY AREN'T TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR.

  MY CAR STARTED TO DRIVE "ROUGH" AND LATER THAT DAY I CALLED THE FORD DEALERSHIP TO HAVE IT SERVICED. WHILE THERE WERE NO LIGHT INDICATORS OFF ON THE DASH THEY SAID TO GO AHEAD AND BRING IT IN ON MONDAY TO BE LOOKED AT. SUNDAY NIGHT WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP, IT JUST DIED. AGAIN, NO LIGHTS INDICATING SOMETHING WAS WRONG, IT HAD JUST NOT BEEN DRIVING SMOOTHLY. AFTER HAVING IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP, THE NEXT DAY WE WERE CONTACTED TO LET US KNOW THAT THE VEHICLE'S PCM HAD SHORTED AND MELTED THE PLUGS, INTAKE VALUES, COILS, BATTERY AND CATALYTIC CONVERTER. WE HAVE ALWAYS HAD THIS VEHICLE SERVICED BY THIS DEALER AND HAD ALL OF OUR RECOMMENDED AND / OR REQUIRED SERVICE / MAINTENANCE PERFORMED. WHICH IS WHY IT IS SO VEXING THAT SOMETHING THAT IS NOT A SERVICEABLE ITEM AND HAS NO NOTIFICATION CAN NOT ONLY GO OUT BUT TAKE SO MANY COMPONENTS WITH THEM. I OF COURSE CONTACTED FORD WHO SAID THAT IT IS NOT ON A RECALL LIST AND THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO FOR ME. I AM CONTACTING THE NHTSA FOR THEIR CONSIDERATION OF THIS ITEM. THANK YOU. *TR

  MY 2007 FORD EDGE ALL WHEEL DRIVE HAS A LEAKING PROBLEM FROM THE TRANSFER CASE. IT HAS HAD THIS PROBLEM SINCE THE DAY IT WAS NEW. SEVERAL VISITS TO THE DEALER I WAS TOLD IT IS NOT LEAKING ALTHOUGH THERE WAS ALWAYS OIL ON MY DRIVE. I OWN AN AUTO REPAIR SHOP SO I HAD IT IN THE SHOP AND KNEW WITHOUT A DOUBT IT WAS LEAKING. WHAT MAKES IT DANGEROUS IS THE LEAK DRIPS DIRECTLY ON THE EXHAUST PIPE WHICH IS RIGHT BELOW THE TRANSFER CASE. YOU CAN SMELL BURNING OIL AND IT SMOKES A LOT OF TIMES WHEN STOPPING AT STOP SIGNS. THE DEALER HAS WENT AS FAR AS REPLACING THE TRANSFER CASE. THAT FIXED THE PROBLEM FOR A FEW MONTHS BUT THE LEAK ALWAYS COMES BACK. I HAVE RESEARCHED THE PROBLEM AND ON FORDEDGEFORUM.COM HAVE FOUND MANY OWNERS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. I AM AFRAID FORD IS NOT ABLE TO FIND A PERMANENT FIX FOR THE PROBLEM AND SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET BURNED. I HAVE READ OF THESE VEHICLES CATCHING ON FIRE BUT HAVE NOT HEARD THE CAUSE. THIS LEAK COULD BE CAUSING IT. IN MY OWN REPAIR SHOP I HAVE NOTICED CUSTOMER VEHICLES HAVE THE SAME LEAK AS MINE. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT IT. THIS AFFECTS THE 2007 AND 2008 FORD EDGE AND LINCOLN MKX MODELS THAT ARE ALL WHEEL DRIVE AND HAVE A TRANSFER CASE OR "PTU UNIT." *TR
