2013 FORD EDGE Complaints

I have a 2013 ford edge. When I press on the brake sometimes it goes down smoothly and I hear a hissing noise and then the next time I brake it is stiff, hard as a rock and I can barely get the vehicle to stop. This is dangerous! A major safety issue but for some unknown reason my 2013 is not showing a recall. I heard that the brake boosters could be the problem. Also my check engine light came on when the stiff brake started happening. I just bout the suv 2 weeks ago. Ford will not help me as no recall is issued.

I was driving home on the freeway from work and there was an accident where traffic had to slow down. As I slowed down by placing my foot on the brakes the tires skid and the ABS light came on as well as the Brake Service light and Service Advance Trac came on. The brakes locked and I avoided an accident by 2 inches. This is hazardous and dangerous.

I took my vehicle to Ford for the brake booster that was issued by Ford. Nothing worked. My brakes would literally go soft and almost to the floor while stopping. It was extremely dangerous and scary. I saw a 2016 recall that replaced the ABS module but my car apparently wasn’t tagged to it. Finally had to foot the $1500 bill to have the ABS module replaced which seemed to have fixed the issue. Thousands have complained of this same issue so I’m not sure why a recent recall hadn’t been issued by Ford.
