  The contact owns a 2014 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the brake pedal was either stiff or soft upon depression. The contact also stated that the check engine warning light had illuminated the instrument panel. The contact had initially taken the vehicle to an independent mechanic who informed him that there was a service bulletin on the vehicle; the mechanic referred him to a dealer. Upon taking the vehicle to a dealer, he was informed that his vehicle was not covered under the service bulletin. The manufacturer had yet to be notified of the failure. The dealer repaired the vehicle. The failure mileage was 80,000.

• 12/28/2021· UNKNOWN OR OTHER

  When the vehicle reaches up to 80,000 miles or so, you may hear a clicking or clunking in the rear when turning or ascending. Nowhere listed in the driver's manual is a power transfer unit mentioned. Obviously, the fluid in this part has to be changed every 30,000 miles. Resulting in a very expensive repair if not done so. I am being quoted 2500.00 for the part and installation by a ford dealer. The power transfer unit blew up, has black oil and metal fragments in it.

• 12/26/2024· SUSPENSION,POWER TRAIN,WHEELS

  The Power Take Off Assembly (PTU) failed. I had it replaced a a Ford Dealership with a genuine Ford PTU. After driving less than 125 miles the PTU failed again and my right front half shaft disengaged without notice on the high when traveling at highway speeds. Upon return to the dealership they noted that the PTU failed and it was replaced at no cost. However, they charged me for the replacement of the Right Front Axel. I contacted Ford Customer Service and contend that recall 14S10 should apply especially after the new PTU failed. They denied my claiming stating that the dealership claimed a torn CV Boot was the cause of my axel disengaging. However there was no mention of a torn CV Boot in the dealerships multipoint inspection of my vehicle when originally brought in. Ford Customer Service and the dealership denied my claim.

  BOUGHT VEHICLE APPROX 1.5 YEARS AGO FROM A CHRYSLER DEALER WITH 28000 MILES. PRESENTLY ABOUT 46000 MILES. WHILE DRIVING AT CITY SPEED, CAME TO A RED LIGHT AND STARTED SMELLING THIS ODOR OF BURNT DIFFERENTIAL FLUID OR ROTTEN EGG SMELL. IMMEDIATELY CALLED DEALER AND MADE APPT, FOR FOLLOWING DAY. WE WERE TOLD IT WAS NOT THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER (WHICH WE THOUGHT IT WAS AND UNDER WARRANTY), BUT IT WAS THE CPU UNIT. WE WERE ALSO TOLD IT WOULD COST US $3000.00 . THE WARRANTY ON THE UNIT IS 5 YEARS OR 60000 MILES. WHICHEVER COMES FIRST. HOW COULD THIS HAPPEN ON A UNIT THAT NORMALLY LASTS A LIFETIME. ESPECIALLY AT 46000 MILES. WE DID SOME RESEARCH BECAUSE DEALER SAID THEY CANNOT WARRANTY OR EVEN CHECK WITH MANUFACTURE ON WARRANTY. WE FOUND THAT THIS IS A COMMON DEFECT WITH THE 2014 FORD EDGE ANF FORD KNOWS THE ISSYE AND WILL NOT DO ANYTHING TO RECALL OR REPAIR ANY OF THESE ISSUES. WE DONT HAVE $3000 DOLLARS TO REPAIR THE ISSUE BUT AM DISAPPOINTED THAT WE HAVE TO MAKE A KNOWN REPAIR ON A VEHICLE BOUTGHT A YEAR AND A HALF AGO THAT SHOULD NOT HAPPEN. THERE HAVE BEEN NEWS REPORTS ON TV ABOUT THIS PARTICULAR ISSUE ON ITS SAFETY . HTTPS://BC.CTVNEWS.CA/MOBILE/FORD-OWNER-FEARS-FOR-HER-SAFETY-AFTER-SERIOUS-CAR-MALFUNCTION-1.3139692 .

I HAD TO QUICKLY MANEUVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AS THE VEHICLE LOST SPEED AND CAME TO A STOP. PUSHING DOWN ON THE ACCELERATOR WOULD NOT DO ANYTHING. I HAD TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED TO A DEALER, WHERE THEY DIAGNOSED THAT THE THROTTLE BODY WAS BINDING DUE TO CARBON BUILD-UP. THE DEALER REPLACED THE THROTTLE BODY AND CLEANED THE FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM AND FUEL METERING SYSTEM. AS THE VEHICLE WAS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY, I HAD TO PAY OVER $650 FOR THE REPAIRS.

  MY WIFE AND I STOPPED FOR LUNCH, AND PARKED ON A CITY STREET. (85 I REMEMBER LOOKING AT MY PHONE WHEN I STOPPED AND SHUT OFF THE CAR USING THE PUSH BUTTON ON THE DASH. WE WALKED TO THE FOOD STAND AND SOMEONE TAPPED ME ON THE SHOULDER TO INFORM ME THAT MY CAR ROLLED DOWN THE STREET. I ATTACHED A PICTURE BELOW. I CRAWLED TO THE DRIVER SIDE THROUGH THE PASSENGER DOOR. THE CAR CAME TO A STOP BY HITTING A SMALL TREE, AND JUST MISSED A LARGE TREE. I WAS ALSO INFORMED THAT THE CAR ROLLED SLOW ENOUGH THE CARS AND PEOPLE WERE ABLE TO AVOID CONTACT. THERE WAS A CROWD, BUT THANKFULLY NO ONE CALLED THE POLICE. THE CAR ONLY HAD A SMALL SCRATCH ON THE BUMPER. I ALSO REMEMBER A BING..BING..BING NOISE WHEN WE EXITED THE VEHICLE PRIOR TO IT ROLLING AWAY. IT MADE THE SAME NOISE THEN I LEAVE MY HEADLIGHTS ON, BUT THEY AUTO SHUT-OFF IN THE PAST. YOU MAY HAVE FIGURED OUT THAT I FORGOT TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK. YES I MADE AN ERROR, BUT FORD COULD HAVE THE CAR MAKE A LOUD NOISE IF THE DRIVER DOOR IS OPENED BEFORE OR AFTER THE ENGINE IS SHUT OFF AND THE CAR IS NOT IN PARK. I AM A 29 YEAR EMT, AND I CAN ASSURE YOU THAT SAFETY IS ALWAYS ON MY MIND, BUT JUST NOT ON THIS DAY. I AM 63 YEARS OLD, AND ALL MY PREVIOUS CARS WERE UNABLE TO REMOVE THE KEYS IF THE CAR WAS NOT IN PARK. SO IT'S ALL ABOUT THE PUSH BUTTON START/STOP BUTTON. THANKS FOR READING, AND MAYBE YOU CAN SUGGEST A FIX TO FORD.

• 11/30/2022· SERVICE BRAKES

  2014 Ford Edge was purchased in 5/2015 with 6k miles on it. It was a leftover from 2014. There have been constant brake pulsating issues (details below) from the day it was purchased. Rotors have been cut down or replaced every year since the car was purchased. New brake pads have also been required just about every year. The HCU was replaced in 6/2021, which the Ford Dealership admitted was an issue they were seeing with many models however there was no recall ever done. The most recent is an issue with the Brake Booster, which has been confirmed by the dealership. The car is currently at the Ford Dealership. When applying the brakes, the pedal is spongy, and a pulsating is felt in the pedal. This is felt at all speeds but becomes a safety issue at speeds over 30. Braking becomes very hard, and this causes the rotors to heat up and could potentially cause a fatality. Ford recalled 2010-2013 models back in 2014 but only for certain VIN numbers. However, there are customer complaints dating back to 2007. The braking systems on 2007-2014 Ford Edges need to be looked into or there could loss of life.

  I WAS DRIVING ON BARNSVILLE ROAD IN DICKERSON MARYLAND. I FELT THAT MY CAR DROPPED DOWN AND HEARD A SCRAPPING SOUND AND THE CAR VEERED TO THE RIGHT ON TO A FIELD. I GOT OUT AND FOUND THE ALUMINUM WHEEL ON THE GRASS WITH THE TIRE OFF THE WHEEL . WHEN THE TOW TRUCK CAME I SAW THAT THE CORE OF THE WHEEL HAD TOTALLY SHEARED OFF FROM THE EXTERIOR OF THE WHEEL. THE TIRE HAD NO SIGN OF PUNCTURE. I DID NOT HIT ANY OBJECTS OR POTHOLE. THERE WAS NO WARNING BEFORE THE EVENT. THE FORD DEALER BLAMED THE ALUMINUM WHEEL FAILURE ON A DENT IN THE WHEEL, WHICH DOES NOT EXPLAIN THE SYMMETRICAL TOTAL SEPARATION OF THE CORE OF THE WHEEL FROM THE EXTERIOR AS IF SOME ONE HAD TAKEN A SAW AND SEPARATED THE WHEEL. IT WAS THAT CLEAN OF A CUT. I HAVE THE WHEEL AND THE TIRE FOR FURTHER INVESTIGATION. *TR

• 11/27/2014· VISIBILITY/WIPER

  WHEN OUTDOOR TEMPERATURE DROPS BELOW FREEZING AS YOU DRIVE THE VEHICLE THE INTERIOR WINDOWS AND WINDSHIELD WILL FOG UP TO THE POINT OF NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE OUT OF THEM. DEFROST MODE DOES NOT COMPLETELY CLEAR WINDSHIELD. ONLY GIVES ABOUT A QUARTER OF THE WINDSHIELD AT BOTTOM TO HALF CLEARANCE AT BEST. THIS HAS HAPPENED FOUR TIMES NOW AND I HAD NO PROBLEMS UNTIL AFTER MY DEALER DID A RECALL FOR HEATER UNIT EFFICIENCY. I HAVE HAD IT TO THEM THREE TIMES IN THE LAST THREE WEEKS AND THEY CONTINUE TO TELL ME THAT EVERYTHING IS FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. THEIR SUGGESTIONS HAVE BEEN REVIEW MY MANUAL ON PROPER HEATER FUNCTIONS, ROLL DOWN THE WINDOWS, DO NOT PARK THE CAR IN MY GARAGE, CARRY A TOWEL WITH ME IN THE CAR TO WIPE OFF WINDSHIELD AND TURN ON THE AIR CONDITIONING. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN AS MY VIEW IS EXTREMELY OBSTRUCTED AND I WOULD APPRECIATE SOME ASSISTANCE AS FORD IS TELLING ME THAT IT IS A MINOR PROBLEM. I DON'T SEE IT AS MINOR BUT MAJOR AS CLEAR VISIBILITY IS A NECESSITY WHEN DRIVING. *TR

• 11/25/2025· SERVICE BRAKES

  I am an automotive service technology teacher, retired. The ABS system on this vehicle failed without warning and without any trouble codes. No lights, no codes. The pedal sinks nearly to the floor, but does engage the brakes once the ABS chambers fill with fluid. But, by the time brakes begin to engage, one's heart skips a beat and it actually takes 1/2 second longer for the brakes to actually work. If not for my tall stature, I might not be able to reach the distance it takes to get hydraulic pressure. Brakes work, but marginally due to interference with floor. My research indicates this is a relatively common problem with these vehicles. Folks need to be warned! A recall is in order; at the very least a service bulletin and a customer notification. I'll fix it, but I shouldn't need to. I'll save the old unit and ship it if anybody wants to inspect it.

  99800 miles on vehicle. Brake pedal went to the floor on 10/27/2022. Serviced at Dealership Sept. 2022. At dealership, confirmed that Hydraulic Control Unit was bad. Had another vehicle in repair with same problem. Recall issued on this issue but didn't cover my vehicle. No advance warning on screen. Internet list many complaints by Edge owners, especially 2011 and 2013. This should be a recall problem and not cost the $1759 that I will have to pay out of pocket.
