2011 FORD EDGE Complaints

REAR PASSENGER DOOR SAYS AJAR. LIGHTS STAY ON. IN THE DARK BACKING UP AND YOU ARE NOT ABLE TO SEE CLEARLY WHAT IS BEHIND YOU BECAUSE THE LIGHTS CAN NOT BE TURNED OFF INSIDE UNTIL YOU START DRIVING FORWARD AND HIT 5MPH.

DURING BRAKING THERE IS A HISSING SOUND EMANATING FROM THE AREA IN FRONT OF THE BRAKE PEDDLE. THE BRAKING ACTION OF THE CAR IS SEVERELY DIMINISHED CAUSING REDUCED BRAKING APPLICATION DURING EACH PHASE OF BRAKING I.E. EMERGENCY STOPPING, NORMAL STOPPING. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT REQUIRES IMMEDIATE ATTENTION. THIS OCCURS ON EACH APPLICATION OF THE BRAKES.

BRAKES INTERMITTENTLY GO ALL THE WAY TO FLOOR WITH NO WARNING WHILE DRIVING ON CITY STREETS (TRAVELING STRAIGHT). CAR DOES NOT STOP. BRAKE FAILURE HAS HAPPENED TWICE RECENTLY, ONCE WHEN GOING OVER A RAILROAD TRACK (BIG BUMP), AND ONCE FOR NO APPARENT REASON. TOOK TO FORD, AND IT TOOK THEM A DAY TO LOOK AT THE VEHICLE, AND THEY COULD NOT REPRODUCE THE ISSUE. THEY CHECKED ALL THE PARTS OF THE BRAKE SYSTEM AND COULD NOT FIND ANY ISSUE.

VEHICLE HAS 54,096 MILES ON IT. POWER TRANSFER UNIT FAILURE AND TRANSMISSION FAILURE. NOTICED A NOISE, TOOK IT IN FOR REPAIR BEFORE IT GOT WORSE. THIS SEEMS TO BE A KNOWN AND COMMON ISSUE. VERY EXPENSIVE REPAIR WITH LOW MILES.

WHEN PUSHED ON, BRAKES PETAL DEPRESSES WITHOUT BREAKING SOMETIMES, BUT OTHERTIMES WORKS JUST FINE.

PASSENGER DOOR LATCH DOOR CLOSED SENSOR FAILED. REQUIRES 30+ CLOSURES OF THE DOOR FOR THE SENSOR TO DIM CABIN LIGHTS AND KEEP DOORS LOCKES. WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD IF DOOR SENSOR DOES NOT RECOGNIZE IT IS CLOSED, WILL UNLOCK ALL CAR DOORS MAKING IT POSSIBLE FOR A BACKSEAT CHILD TO OPEN DOORS WHILE IN MOTION.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH, THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO BRAKE, BUT THE BRAKE PEDAL TRAVELED TO THE FLOORBOARD. THE CONTACT HAD TO STAND ON THE BRAKE PEDAL TO STOP THE VEHICLE AND KEEP IT FROM CRASHING INTO OTHER VEHICLES. HALL CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM VIRGINIA BEACH (3152 VIRGINIA BEACH BLVD, VIRGINIA BEACH, VA 23452, (877) 475-0721) WAS CONTACTED AND STATED THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS ON THE VEHICLE. THE DEALER WANTED TO CHARGE $1,700 FOR A BRAKE BOOSTER REPAIR. THE CONTACT PURCHASED A BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY AND THE DEALER STATED THAT THEY WOULD CHECK TO SEE IF THE WARRANTY WAS STILL IN EFFECT. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE CONTACT RESEARCHED THE BRAKE FAILURE ONLINE AND FOUND SEVERAL COMPLAINTS, BUT NO RECALLS. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,980. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN.

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE WORTHLESS. MY FORD DEALER ADJUSTED THEM, MY FORD BODY SHOP ADJUSTED THEM, I ADJUSTED THEM, AND YOU STILL CANT SEE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. THEY ARE NOT ANY GOOD. WHY HAVE YOU ALLOWED THIS TO GO ON? I WROTE TO YOU WHEN I FIRST GOT THE CAR AND GOT NOTHING. WHAT THE HELL ? NO SIDE TO SIDE ADJUSTMENT IS EVEN PROVIDED FOR IN THE DESIGN, BUT MORE THAN THAT THEY DON'T PROVIDE ENOUGH LIGHT TO LIGHT UP THE ROAD. IV'E PUT IN NEW BULBS $50.00 EACH, I'VE PUT IN A WHOLE NEW FACTORY HEADLIGHT $300.00 AND STILL CAN'T SEE THE ROAD. CAME HOME FROM KANSAS CITY LAST NIGHT 70 MILES, 35 MILES OF WITCH WAS ON INTERSTATE 49 AND AT TIMES WE HAS TO GUESS WHERE THE ROAD WAS. THE CAR IS A 2011 WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ON THIS? I HAVEN'T TALKED TO ANYONE WHO OWNS ONE OF THESE WHO ISN'T FIGHTING THE SAME PROBLEM. WE TRY NOT TO DRIVE THE DAM THING AT NIGHT, BUT SOMETIMES WE GET CAUGHT AND HAVE TO. ARE YOU WAITING FOR US TO GET KILLED AND WE WILL QUIT BOTHERING YOU? DO YOUR DAM JOB, MAKE FORD FIX THIS PROBLEM! WHAT ARE YOU DOING ABOUT THIS???

CAR DOORS SHOW DOORS AJAR AND INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON AND RUN DOWN THE BATTERY. NO AMOUNT OF CLOSING DOORS USING FORCE OR WITH FOB SEEMS TO WORK. MY 16 YEAR SON IS ABOUT TO START DRIVING AND MY COMPLAINT IS THAT HE MAY BE STRANDED IF THE BATTERY IS DEPLETED. LINTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON ALL NIGHT DUE TO THIS PROBLEM. LIGHTS ONLY GO OUT WHEN CAR IS MOVING...
