2011 FORD EDGE Complaints

IT APPEARED TO ME THAT THE ENGINE DISCONNECTED FROM THE DRIVE TRAIN. A BOX LIT UP ON THE DASH SAYING. "ALL WHEEL DRIVE OFF." THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO CREEP AT AN EXTREMELY SLOW SPEED. I STOPPED AND TURNED OFF THE ENGINE. I STARTED THE ENGINE AGAIN AND THE VEHICLE SEEMED FINE. I DID NOT HAVE ANOTHER INCIDENT FOR A FEW WEEKS. SUNDAY JULY 13 IT STOPPED PROBABLY A DOZEN TIMES ON A 10 MILE ROUND TRIP. SINCE THEN IT HAPPENS 2 OR 3 TIMES A DAY UNTIL TODAY. TODAY IT HAS STOPPED 10 TIMES BEFORE 10:00 AM. (JULY 17, 2014). *TR

I LOVED EVERYTHING ABOUT MY 2011 FORD EDGE LIMITED AWD, I'VE HAD IT LESS THEN TWO MONTHS . THEN ONE MORNING AS I WAS COMMUTING TO WORK I LOST POWER TO MY EDGE. THE WEATHER WAS CLEAR APPROX. 68 DEGREES, A BEAUTIFUL FRIDAY MORNING I WAS DRIVING I FELT A JOLT LIKE A KICK IN THE TRANSMISSION THAT WAS FOLLOWED BY A FLASH OF THE TOOL SYMBOL & ?AWD OFF? ON MY FRONT INSTRUMENT PANEL. I LOST ACCELERATION POWER. I HAD NOWHERE TO PULL OFF ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND HAD JUST CAME OUT OF A SHARP CURVE. ALL I COULD DO WAS PUT THE EDGE IN PARK. TURN OFF, THEN TURN BACK ON, IT STARTED RIGHT UP LUCKILY. THE NEXT DAY MY HUSBAND TOOK THE EDGE TO A FORD DEALERSHIP. THE SERVICE DEPT. HOOKED UP THE EDGE AND FOUND NO PROBLEMS/ERRORS/CODES. ALTHOUGH THEY SAID IT IS PROBABLY THE THROTTLE BODY, SINCE THEY HAVE HAD SEVERAL FORD EDGES COME IN WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. I HAVE GOOGLED ?LOSING POWER WHILE DRIVING MY 2011 FORD EDGE? AND DIDN?T RELIES THAT THIS IS THE #1 PROBLEM WITH FORD EDGES, YOU WOULD THINK THAT FORD WOULD DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS. AFTER READING ALL THE COMMENTS I SAW INFORMATION ON THE ?THROTTLE BODY? BEING REPLACED. SEVERAL PEOPLE POSTED THEIR EDGE HAD A CODE P2111 OR P2112 (PERTAINING TO THE THROTTLE BODY). I CALLED FORD AND THEY TOLD ME THIS WOULD NOT BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. HELP! I HAVE A SMALL FAMILY NOW I'M SCARED TO DRIVE! *TR

BRAKE PEDAL FEELS HARD TO PRESS AND DOES NOT STOP MY VEHICLE. SOME OTHER TIMES THE PEDAL FEELS SPONGY AND WITHOUT BRAKING POWER. AT THE SAME TIME AS PRESSING THE PEDAL I COULD HEAR A HISSING NOISE , BROUGHT THE CAR IN TO THE SERVICE CENTER I WAS TOLD THAT THERE IS A NATIONAL BACKORDER ON THE BRAKE BOOSTER PART, THEY CAN NOT GIVE A DATE THAT THE PART WILL BE AVAILABLE. *TR

VEHICLE STALLS WHILE DRIVING IT, HAS HAPPENED 5 TIMES IN THE LAST 6 MONTHS, FORD SERVICE CAN NOT DIAGNOSE. *TR

IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING NORMALLY THE ENGINE SLOWS RPM ALMOST TO A STALL THEN WOULD NOT DO ANY THING WHEN THE GAS PEDAL WAS PRESSED. AFTER PULLING OVER I SHUT OFF THE CAR AND TURNED IT BACK ON AND IT DROVE FINE FOR ABOUT 20 MILES. THEN WHILE SLOWING DOWN TO A REDLIGHT IT DID THE SAME THING. SO I TURNED IT OFF AND ON AND IT WAS FINE AGAIN. I DROVE IT HOME AND NOW ITS SITTING IN THE DRIVEWAY. AFTER LOOKING ONLINE IT SEEMS THAT IT IS PROBABLY THE THROTTLE BODY. IM GOING TO REPLACE THAT AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS. *TR

DOOR AJAR LIGHTS CONSTANTLY ON SAYING DOORS ARE OPEN. LIGHTS STAY ON BECAUSE IT THINKS DOORS ARE OPEN. CANNOT LOCK FROM KEYLESS ENTRY PAD. THIS HAPPENED ABOUT A YEAR AGO NOT SURE OF DATE THAT'S WHY I DIDN'T LIST. IT IS DRIVERS DOOR AGAIN AND REAR PASSENGER DOOR. TWO AT A TIME! REAR DOOR IS HARDLY USED. VERY DISGUSTING AND COSTLY REPAIRS AGAIN . *TR

ON MY WAY TO WORK ON 787 IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC 7:30 IN THE MORNING , WAS ABOUT TO GET OFF OF 787 TO GET ON I90 ALL OF THE SUDDEN I LOST FULL POWER OF THE GAS, PULLED OVER AS SOON AS I COULD WITH ALL THE TRAFFIC . THE SYMBOL CAME UP ON THE SCREEN THE WRENCH LOOKING PICTURE. I SHUT MY CAR OFF. CALLED MY HUSBAND AND HOPING I WOULDN'T GET HIT WITH PEOPLE DOING 60 PLUS RIGHT PASSED ME. AFTER 10 MIN I STARTED MY CAR BACK UP AND HOPING I CAN ACCELERATE BACK ONTO 787. FINALLY GOT TO WORK. FORD REALLY NEEDS TO TAKE CARE OF THIS ISSUE WITH ALL THE COMPLAINTS I HAVE SEEN!!!! *TR

DRIVING 45 MPH AND VEHICLE LOST POWER, THE WRENCH DASH WARNING LIGHT CAME ON, PULLED OVER SHUT IT OFF AND IT WAS ROUGH TO START BUT IT DID, AND RAN OK. A WEEK LATER DID IT AGAIN GOING ABOUT 25 MPH. AS OTHERS HAVE MENTIONED SCANNER SHOWS NO CODES. FORTUNATELY FOR US THE ISSUES HAVE HAPPENED ON LOW VOLUME ROADWAYS, NOT HIGH SPEED, HIGH TRAFFIC LIKE SOME UNLUCKY FOLKS. LOCAL DEALER CALLED FORD AND IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE POWER TRAIN, WE HAVE 35K MILES BUT 45 MONTHS. HOPEFULLY FORD WILL STAND UP AND DO A RECALL WITHOUT WAITING FOR THE DEATHS TO MULTIPLY LIKE GM! *TR

DRIVING ON THE ROAD AND MAKING A RIGHT TURN, THE VEHICLE LOST ACCELERATOR RESPONSE. HAD TO COAST OF THE ROAD IN A VERY BUSY INTERSECTION. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND THE WRENCH LIGHT ON DASH LIT UP. TURNED THE CAR OFF AND ON 3 TIMES AND THEN I COULD DRIVE LIKE NOTHING HAPPENED AND THE DASH LIGHTS WENT OFF. IT HAPPENED AGAIN A WEEK LATER ON THE HIGHWAY AT 65 MPH. I WAS ON TH ELEFT LANE AND THERE WAS NO SHOULDER SO I HAD TO COAST THRU THREEE LANES TO THE RIGHT SHOULDER. AGAIN, TURNED CAR ON OF SEVERAL TIMES UNTIL REGAINED ACCELERATOR RESPONSE. WHEN I REACHED MY DESTINATION I LOCATED AN OBDII SCANNER ANDD THE P2111 CODE CAME UP. THIS IS THE SAME ISSUE AS THE FORD ESCAPE THAT WAS ISSUED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY. INVESTIGATING THRU THE INTERNET THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME ISSUE ON THE FORD EDGE. WHY IS IT FORD NOT ACKNOWLEDGING THE ISSUE AND DO THE SAME AS FOR THE ESCAPE VEHICLES? *TR

WE WERE TRAVELING ON A HIGHWAY WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN WE LOST "POWER" BUT IT WAS ONLY THE ABILITY TO GO. THERE WAS ENOUGH TRAFFIC AND LACK OF SPEED TO PROHIBIT FROM MOVING ALL THE WAY OVER TO THE SHOULDER. WE MADE IT TO THE SLOWEST LANE (FURTHEST RIGHT HAND LANE). THE ONLY THING THAT SAVED US FROM BEING REAR ENDED WAS THERE WAS A SHERIFF NEAR BY AND SAW US BROKE DOWN STRANDED AND HE HELPED DIRECT TRAFFIC AROUND US FOR OUR SAFETY. WE WERE IN AN UNPOPULATED AREA AND HAD NO RESOURCES FOR SOME ONE TO COME GET US OR KNOW WHICH TOWING COMPANY COULD HELP US, ALONG WITH KNOWING A TRUSTED MECHANIC OUT WHERE WE WERE. MY CAR IS LESS THAN 4 YEARS OLD, THIS SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING. WHEN WE FINALLY MADE IT HOME OUT OF SHEER LUCK, WE DID LOTS OF RESEARCH ON WHAT THE PROBLEM COULD BE AND FOUND MILLIONS HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THEIR FORDS. I LOVE THE COMPANY BUT I NEVER END BEEN SO STRESSED OUT AND SCARED FOR MY CHILDREN'S SAFETY. I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE TO BE SAFE AND IT HAD FAILED ME. LIKE I SAID, I COULD BE MARKING THIS FORM DIFFERENTLY IF THE OFFICER DIDN'T PROTECT US. THE PART WAS NOT CHEAP ALONG WITH THE LABOR. WITH SO MANY OTHER PEOPLE BREAKING DOWN FOR THE SAME REASON, I AM SHOCKED AND APPALLED THAT THERE HASN'T BEEN A RECALL FOR THIS YET. I URGE YOU TO CHANGE THAT AND KEEP THE ROADS SAFE FOR ALL DRIVERS. SINCE THE AFFECTED PART DOESN'T HAVE MY SPECIFIC PART, IT WAS THE THROTTLE BODY AND EVEN MY MECHANICS SAID FORD HAS NEVER HAD A GOOD ONE. WISH I WOULD OF KNOW THAT BEFORE PURCHASING MY VEHICLE. *JS
