I have replaced all brake components except abs motor. After researching online this vehicle has same issues as stated with other models . Brake pedal goes to floor after spending $3500!

I am reporting a safety issue involving a 2013 Ford Edge Sport AWD related to progressive brake failure. The affected components include the brake booster and master cylinder. The vehicle remains available for inspection upon request. In mid-2025, the vehicle developed a gradual loss of braking capability. The brake pedal required increasing force over time to bring the vehicle to a stop. Because the failure developed progressively rather than suddenly, the severity of the issue was not immediately apparent. At the time, the vehicle was primarily driven by my teenage son, a new driver, who continued operating the vehicle by pressing the brake pedal harder to compensate. This created a significant safety risk, as the vehicle did not reliably stop under normal braking conditions, increasing the risk of collision. The issue was confirmed by an independent mechanic, and repairs required replacement of the brake booster, master cylinder, and related components. The vehicle was later discussed with a Ford dealership; however, no warning of coverage or recall applicability was identified at that time. There were no clear warning lights or dashboard messages indicating brake system failure prior to the issue. The primary symptom was a progressive increase in required pedal force. After the repair, I learned that brake booster failure is a known issue for this vehicle platform and has been the subject of prior manufacturer service campaigns. I am concerned that this type of gradual brake degradation may not be recognized by drivers, particularly inexperienced drivers, and could result in unsafe operating conditions. The vehicle has also experienced repeated rear differential failures. Replacement parts are no longer manufactured by Ford, requiring use of used components with unknown condition and lifespan, further affecting vehicle reliability and safe operation. I have attached a receipt for the second time purchasing and replacing the rear differential.

The contact owns a 2013 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, after being cut off by another driver, the contact attempted to make an emergency stop; however, while the brake pedal was depressed, the brake pedal went to the floorboard, extending the braking distance. The vehicle failed to stop as intended, increasing the risk of a crash. The dealer was notified of the failure, but the vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 125,000.

On Dec 11, 2025, the driver’s heated seat in my 2013 Ford Edge overheated within minutes of activation, causing first- and second-degree burns to the occupant. The vehicle was inspected on March 18, 2026 and escalated for management review, but the manufacturer failed to provide the promised follow-up by March 26, 2026, and the defect remains unresolved, posing an ongoing risk of injury. No problems prior to ever using the heated seats.

The panoramic sun roof exploded while going down the highway sending glass flying in the air. The sunroof shade was not open so the driver and 2 infants in the back seat were not injured. I contacted Ford Motor Company and was given a case number CZH-03059174. They directed me to turn it in to my insurance company which I did not do. I took the vehicle to the body shop, they found a replacement and installed it for less than my insurance deductible.

Back up Camera goes in and out, it's flips upside down and do wired things , it also say call dealership, the picture sometimes be in reverse , and brake light stays on have to pump brake in order for it to go off.

1. My safety system/camera system is no longer working properly. The screen displays either a black/blank screen, an inverted (upside down) image, or an image that appears to be zoomed in to a very small viewing area. The alerts (beeping) does not function consistently when backing up. The horn does not always work. At times the entire electrical display including the sound system will reset without prompting. The back door hatch will actively close even when there is something in the opening. 2. Safety is at risk because the video system is in place as a secondary alert system to prevent accident or injury. The horn is a necessary item. If the electrical system should reset during operation this could cause an accident. The rear hatch could cause injury if it does close. 3. These issues have been witnessed by other people, but not in a dealership or service center because these places charge outrageous fees. 4. No inspection done by manufacturer/police/insurance. At time of state regulated inspection all aspects pertinent to that were functional 5. These issues began over a year ago with camera malfunction, the other issues have become present throughout that time.

Starting about a year and a half ago, my backup camera would either say “camera is unavailable, contact dealership” or be upside down or some sort of distorted image. Sometimes the camera works. It poses a risk to me and others.sometimes the camera will cut out and go black after I have started backing up with it. No other warning lights have come on. Other ford edges have been recalled for the same issue but not the 2013.

Breaks went out on car.started out only when I hit a bump I’d loose them… turn car off and pump them back… now they are just gone! Replaced pads rotors calipers, now changing master cylinder.. from what I’ve read that won’t help but have to try! They should really put a recall out for this!
