2013 FORD EDGE Complaints

I purchased these tires and they were installed on 1/19/25. I paid $426.20 including the installation fees. After installation we noticed the tires were extremely loud above 40 MPH. We returned and had the tires balanced again and the noise problem continued. It drowned out the cabin and made it difficult to hear anything outside of the vehicle. The poor customer service department made me complete a warranty request which was denied within hours because the warranty doesn’t cover noise. They refused to take any responsibility for this hazardous issue that was previously reported. They claim their tires are quiet on various sites, but this is false. There have been many reports to Arroyo and they are not willing to address the unsafe issue. Various reviews on the internet express the same concerns about excessive noise. I replaced the scary tires with another set and they are very quiet and don’t produce the excess noise like the Arroyo tires. 245/50ZR20 102W

The brake booster on my 2013 Ford Edge Sport has failed, leading to significantly reduced braking performance. This creates a dangerous condition requiring excessive force to stop the vehicle. Over the past few months, I have narrowly avoided multiple accidents due to the inability to stop safely at stoplights. On several occasions, I was forced to swerve off the road to avoid collisions. This issue was diagnosed by a certified mechanic, who informed me that brake booster failures are a known problem in this vehicle model. Although I was made aware of Ford's Customer Satisfaction Program 13N02, Ford's customer service indicated that the warranty had expired, and the dealership refused to repair the issue at no cost. As I cannot afford the repair myself, I am forced to continue driving the vehicle in its unsafe condition, putting my safety and the safety of others at risk.

The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where diagnostic trouble code U041-68 was retrieved, and the dealer diagnosed that the HCU and ABS modules had failed and needed to be replaced; however, the part was on backorder.

The manufacturer referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline for assistance. The contact stated that the vehicle could be repaired by an independent mechanic due to the cost.

1 month after replacing the break booster, the modules that control the ABS system went out. I have taken the vehicle to multiple mechanics and no one is able to get the part. They said Ford is no longer manufacturing the replacement. When I called the Ford dealership and tried to get it repaired, they said the part is on back order with no date for when it will be available. I am now forced to drive without ABS breaks and I worry about having to slam on my brakes and my car sliding out of control. I live in a very high traffic area and have to commute a lot on the interstates due to work.

The contact owns a 2013 Ford Edge. The contact stated that the brake pedal was depressed and went to the floorboard. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was initially taken to a dealer where the hydro booster was replaced; however, the failure returned immediately after repair. The vehicle was then repaired with a different hydro booster by the same dealer; however, the failure persisted. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer and the contact was informed that both the HCU (Hydraulic Control Unit) and brake master cylinder needed to be replaced. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where the HCU and brake master cylinder were replaced; however, the failure persisted. The vehicle was taken back to the independent mechanic however, the cause of the failure was undetermined. The vehicle was not repaired.

Driving on the highway at night when suddenly the door alarm rings, dome light turned on causing driver to lose focus/control. Was driving at 60mph when the sensor faulted. The alarm/notification turns on at random times causing the vehicle to have the light stay on and drain battery. This is causing the driver unsure if the door is properly closed and risking the door opening in case of an accident. Problem has persisted.

Brake booster went out twice and had to be replaced both times ( Jan 2022 and Jan 2023). Now I have HCU failure and lost braking. ( Dec. 2024). I also had a drive Shaft failure for inspection ( Oct. 2024). My car has 60,000 miles on it. I contacted Ford Corporation and my Ford dealership and my Vin is not part of the recalls for any of these issues. However my model year and manufacturer location were part of a recall for all three of these systems. My car has been serviced by a Ford authorized dealer each time. My braking system continues to be unreliable and scary to drive.

If you hit a pot hole or a bump on the road the brake pedal makes a weird sound and then the brake goes all the way to the floorboard when trying to apply brakes and doesn't come to an immediate stop. The wrench light has come on or the symbol that has the car and wavy lines for traction control will turn on all of a sudden and then the car shuts off in the middle of the road while driving putting my life in danger. It also doesn't accelerate all of a sudden and loses power while driving putting my life in danger. When you put the car in park the car still jerks forward even after the car is in park and off. It also makes a clicking sound as if it goes into gear after you have turned the car off and park has been engaged. The headlights keep shutting off while driving or dimming in their own. The motormount screws came undone and I had to get it repaired. The power steering keeps losing the fluid and makes a loud grinding noise especially during cold weather. Makes a loud whistle sound like a turbo jet engine when it's cold and you start driving. The rear driverside door latch keeps making the car alert that the door is open when it is not. The recall only shows door latch for a different door and dealership won't repair with recall notice because the notice doesn't say all door latches and is specific to a different door. The car is unsafe to drive but it's the only car I have and the last time I took it to get repairs they kept it for a month and my it off pocket costs were close to $1600 dollars which put me in a financial strain. I can not afford to be without my car for that long again and pay for things that shouldn't be falling apart and putting my child's and my life in danger.
