2011 FORD EDGE Complaints

I I CANNOT REMOVE THE HEAD RESTS ON THE REAR SEATS. THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM SINCE I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE IN 2014, I BELIEVE. IF I PUT THE REAR SEATS DOWN, IT'S OKAY, BUT WITH THEM UP, IT BLOCKS APPROX. 30% OF VIEW, OUT THE BACK WINDOW. TO ME, THAT'S A SAFETY ISSUE. I HAD TAKEN IT TO A COUPLE OF DIFFERENT DEALERS, BUT BEEN TOLD IT CANNOT BE DONE. THERE ARE BUTTONS TO PUSH (SAME AS ON THE FRONT SEATS), AND THE HEAD RESTS CAN BE RAISED AND LOWERED, BUT NOT TOTALLU REMOVED AS CAN BE DONE WITH THE FRONTS. ALSO, SEEMS WHEN I GO TO THE CAR WASH, THE RUBBER OF THE REAR WINDOW WIPER BLADE BECOMES TORN. SINCE I DON'T HARDLY EVER USE IT, I THOUGHT I'D JUST REMOVE IT. AGAIN, TO NO AVAIL. IS THE ANYTHING THAT CAN BE DONE IN THAT REGUARD? THANKS FOR ANY HELP AT ALL, THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE.

WHENEVER VEHICLE HITS BUMPS BRAKE GOES SOFT TO FLOOR. AFTER A NEAR MISS COLLISION, BRAKES NOW ONLY GO TO FLOOR. THEY DO NOT WORK PROPERLY AT ALL NOW. PART IS ON NATIONAL BACK ORDER. PART SHOULD BE RECALLED. TO MANY PEOPLE AFFECTED AND WE ARE TALKING ABOUT BRAKING!

PURCHASED A 2011 FORD EDGE SEL AWD IN 2020 WITH 139,000 MILES. SINCE I HAD IT THE BRAKES SEEMED TO BE HARD WHEN STEPPING ON THE BRAKES. FEAR OF NOT STOPPING IN TIME TO AVOID A ACCIDENT. HOPE THAT FORD MOTOR CO. WOULD HAVE A RECALL ON THE BRAKES. WENT ON INTERNET TO FIND OUT THERE ARE MANY, MANY COMPLAINTS WITH THE BRAKES ON FORD EDGE 2011. LOOKS LIKE IT MIGHT BE DUE TO A BAD OR DEFECTIVE BRAKE BOOSTER. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE AND FORD SHOULD HAVE A RECALL ON THEIR BRAKES. WHY CAN NOT NHTSA FORCE FORD TO FIX THIS ISSUE WITH A RECALL !? HAVE NOT HAD A ACCIDENT YET, BUT CAME CLOSE. WHERE DO I GO FROM HERE? HOPE SOMETHING CAN BE DONE BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED. THANK YOU PHIL

FUEL LEAK. THERE ARE RECALLS FOR THE SAME PARTS ON THE 2012 AND 2013 FORD EDGE. JUST WANT TO GET MY EDGE FIXED SO IT DOES NOT CATCH FIRE

FOR ALMOST 2 YEARS MY PASSENGER DOOR SAYS OPEN AND LEAVES LIGHT ON KILLING MY BATTERY AND THE DOOR IS CLOSED

BREAKS GO OUT PEDAL GOES TO FLOOR REPLACED BREAK BOOSTER ON RECALL FORD KNOWS ABOUT DEFECTIVE BREAKS SYSTEM AND NEW IN 2011

91K MILES AND MY BRAKE PEDAL GOES TO THE FLOOR. BRAKE PADS ARE 50%, NO LEAKING OR CONTAMINATED BRAKE FLUID. DOES IT IN EVERY DRIVING CONDITION, FORWARD, REVERSE, AND ALL SPEEDS.

THE 2011 FORD EDGE BRAKES PARTIALLY FAILED. CAR CAN STILL STOP BUT PEDAL GOES TO THE FLOOR. IT SEEMS THERE MAY BE METAL IN THE HYDRAULIC PUMP SYSTEM CAUSED BY IMPROPER INTERNAL DESIGN (NOT PROPERLY LUBRICATING POSSIBLY). THIS IS A SERIOUS CONCERN THAT COULD LEAD TO A FATALITY. TOO MANY ISSUES HEREIN DOCUMENTED, GARAGES SEEM TO KNOW OF THIS ON-GOING PROBLEM AND A SOLUTION MUST BE PROVIDED BY FORD. TIS IS A SERIOUS PUBLIC SAFETY ISSUE..

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOP AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT, THE ENGINE REMAINED RUNNING HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO RESPOND. THE VEHICLE ROLLED INTO A PARKING LOT AND LUNGED FORWARD BEFORE THE CONTACT TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO SARASOTA FORD (707 S. WASHINGTON BLVD, SARASOTA, FL 34236, (888) 349-4989) TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE REMAINED UNREPAIRED AT THE DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER HAD NOT BEEN CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 74,000.

UPON FUELING OF VEHICLE A STRONG SMELL OF FUEL IS PRESENT AND AFTER PARKING OVERNIGHT A SIGNIFICANT PUDDLE OF FUEL IS DISCOVERED UNDER THE VEHICLE. THIS IS A SEVER ISSUE WHICH NEEDEDS TO BE RECALLED TO PREVENT A CATASTROPHIC EVENT.
