2011 FORD EDGE Complaints

WAS DRIVING DOWN HIGHWAY AND THE POWERTRAIN MALFUNCTION WARNING CAME ON. I WAS UNABLE TO DRIVE THE CAR JUST SHUTDOWN.

THE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED ALTHOUGH THE DOORS WERE SHUT CLOSE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE DOOR LATCH MECHANISM WAS DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. ISSUE LEAD TO DRAINED BATTERY - CAR APPEARS NOT TO HAVE A BATTERY SAFETY FOR DOOR AJAR. LEAD TO UNSAFE CONDITION NOT BEING ABLE TO USE WHEN NEEDED. COULD BE DANGEROUS IF CAR WOULD HAVE BEEN REMOTE OR IN UNSAFE AREA. REPAIRED FOR OVER $400.

HEADLIGHTS LOST BRIGHTNESS. REPLACING BULBS DOES NOT FIX THE ISSUE. THERE APPEARS TO BE A HAZY FILM ON THE INSIDE OF THE ROUND LOWER BEAM LENS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 45 MPH, THE CONTACT CLOSED THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE DOOR HOWEVER, THE DOOR FAILED TO AUTOMATICALLY LOCK AND THE INTERIOR DOME LIGHT REMAINED ILLUMINATED. THE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT ALSO ILLUMINATED. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON NUMBER OF OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHO WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSED OR REPAIR THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 11,000.

JUST DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD-IT HAS HAPPENED IN CITY DRIVING SLOW AND ON INTERSTATE DRIVING FAST- VEHICLE GOES LIMP AND RED WRENCH LITE COMES ON. IT HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES IN 2WEEKS. I HAVE TO COAST TO SIDE OF ROAD, PUT CAR IN PARK AND RESTART THEN EVERYTHING IS FINE. YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN IT IS GOING TO HAPPEN. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND SOMEONE IS GONNA GET KILLED! WHEN PUTTING VEHICLE ON THE MACHINE IT WILL NOT READ CODE BECAUSE WRENCH LITE GOES OFF WHEN U KILL AND RESTART IT. THIS SEEMS TO BE HAPPENING ON OTHER FORD AND LINCOLN MODELS FROM WHAT I'M READING ON FORUMS. FORD NEEDS TO RECALL AND FIX THIS PROBLEM ASAP!

THE FRONT SEAT IS TIGHT AND HAD A DEALER TO CHECK THAT BUT WHEN U ACCELERATE THE SEAT JUMPS BACKWORDS AND WHEN YOU BRAKE THE SEAT JUMPS FORWARDS. THE SEAT TRACK IS BAD. AFTER READING ONLINE ALOT OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS ISSUE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED ALTHOUGH THE DOORS WERE SECURED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE DOOR LATCH MECHANISM NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE.

MY HUSBAND AND I WERE DRIVING HOME (GOING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH) WITH OUR 2 YEAR OLD AND ALL OF THE SUDDEN THE CAR LOST POWER. IT DID NOT DIE BUT WOULDN'T GO OVER 5 MPH. THANKFULLY, WE WERE CLOSE TO HOME AND NOT ON A BUSY HIGHWAY. IF WE HAD BEEN ON A BUSY HIGHWAY I DO BELIEVE IT WOULD HAVE CAUSE AN ACCIDENT AND THAT TERRIFIES ME SINCE THIS IS OUR PRIMARY FAMILY VEHICLE. I HAVE READ THAT FORD EXTENDED THE WARRANTY FOR THIS ISSUE BUT WAS NOT MADE TO ISSUE A RECALL. UNFORTUNATELY, FORD INC'S "CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM" FOR THIS ISSUE EXPIRED IN JANUARY 2015 SO NOW I WILL BE OUT THE MONEY TO FIX THIS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS ISSUE. FORD MOTOR COMPANY SHOULD BE MADE TO ISSUE A RECALL TO FIX THIS ISSUE BEFORE IT KILLS SOMEONE.

THIS IS THE SECOND REPORT I HAVE MADE ABOUT THIS ISSUE. THE FIRST WAS ON/ABOUT SET. 26, 2015. WHEN I WAS DRIVING, THE CAR IN MOTION, THE POWER TRAIN MALFUNCTION INDICATOR (A WRENCH) COMES ON, THE CAR LOSES ALL POWER, GOES DOWN TO PERHAPS 2 MILES PER HOUR, AND THEN STOPS. IT FEELS AS THOUGH THE POWER STEERING ALSO GOES OUT. WHEN THE CAR STOPS, IT SHAKES AND JERKS. YOU CANNOT ACCELERATE. I TURN THE MOTOR OFF AND THEN ON, "RESETTING" THE INDICATOR (PER THE FORD DEALERSHIP). AND THE ISSUE STOPS. IT HAS HAPPENED AGAIN TODAY, OCT. 23RD. TWICE (IN THE MORNING AND AGAIN THIS AFTERNOON). I CALLED SAM GALLOWAY FORD IN FORT MYERS, FL AND WAS TOLD TO BRING IT IN ON NOV. 4TH. AGAIN, TODAY IS OCT. 23. I WAS TOLD, BY DANIELLE (SERVICE ADVISOR), THAT "SINCE IT IS NOT HAPPENING ALL THE TIME IT WAS FINE TO WAIT" UNTIL NOV. 4, 2015. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS CAR THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE FOR ME, ANYONE I HAVE IN THE CAR, AND OTHER DRIVERS. ARE YOU GOING TO WAIT UNTIL SOMEONE GETS KILLED BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE? I AM ON BUSY ROADS WHEN THIS HAPPENS. WHY DON'T YOU DO SOMETHING????

WRENCH WARNING LIGHT, THEN LOST ACCELERATION, CAR STOPPED. DRIVING ON HIGHWAY WHEN THIS OCCURRED.
