2015 FORD EDGE Complaints

THE HEADLIGHTS ON MY 2015 EDGE ARE EXTREMELY WEAK ON LOW BEAM. THERE IS NO PERIPHERAL LIGHTING AT ALL. I CANNOT DRIVE AT NIGHT SAFELY WITHOUT HAVING MY HIGH BEAMS ON. THIS IS SCARY AND DANGEROUS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE HIS DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN RATE OF SPEED, THE BRAKE PEDAL DEPRESSED TO THE FLOORBOARD BUT THE VEHICLE DID NOT REDUCE IN SPEED; THEREFORE, SHE WAS FORCED TO APPLY HER EMERGENCY BRAKE TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT WAS UNCERTAIN IF ANY WARNING LIGHTS APPEARED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. DUE TO THE FAILURE, HIS DAUGHTER HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO VETERANS FORD(7201 W LINEBAUGH AVE, TAMPA, FL 33625) WHERE THEY REPLACED HER MASTER BRAKE CYLINDER AS WELL AS HER BRAKE LINE. THE CONTACT THEN RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 20V469000(SERVICE BRAKES, SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC) HOWEVER THE PARTS FOR THE REPAIR WERE UNAVAILABLE. LATER ON, THE CONTACT'S DAUGHTER EXPERIENCED THE FAILURE FOR A SECOND TIME AND AGAIN HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED BACK TO THE SAME DEALER WHERE THEY LINKED HER FAILURE TO THE RECALL; HOWEVER, THE PARTS STILL REMAINED UNAVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND THE CONTACT WAS GIVEN A CASE NUMBER. THE VEHICLE HAD YET TO BE REPAIRED AND REMAINED IN THE POSSESSION OF THE DEALER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 87,000. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

THE REAR BACK WINDOW IN MY 2015 FORD EDGE JUST SHATTERED OUT OF NO WHERE AFTER SHUTTING MY DOOR. I'VE DONE SOME RESEARCH AND APPARENTLY THIS HAS HAPPENED TO MANY OTHERS AS WELL. I WILL NOW BE PAYING OUT OF POCKET FOR WHAT IS OBVIOUSLY A FACTORY FLAW.

NOTICED SUBSTANCE IN GARAGE COMING FROM TRUCK THAT WAS OILY. BROUGHT TO MY SERVICE CENTER AND IT WAS CONCLUDED THAT THERE IS AN OIL LEAK FROM THE ENGINE OIL PAN RTV SEAL. APPARENTLY THIS IS DUE TO A LACK OF RTV ADHESION. HOW IS THIS NOT A RECALL? THIS IS A MAJOR REPAIR AND EXPENSIVE AT THAT. I JUST WANT TO UNDERSTAND MORE AS THIS AFFECTS MORE THAN JUST MY MODEL AND YEAR FORD VEHICLE.

I BOUGHT THIS CAR AT 58K, IN 2019 I TOOK IT INTO FORD WHEN A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME UP. FORD TOLD ME IT WAS COOLANT INTRUSION IN THE CYLINDER AND IT WOULD BE A 7K REPAIR.

IT IS MAKING A LOUD DIESEL NOISE ON IDLE OR LESS THAN 10 MILES PER HE. WHEN GOING FASTER THE NOICE GOES AWAY IT IS DOING THIS ALL THE TIME

WHILE DRIVING MY CAR I STARTED TO NOTICE A RATTLING NOISE FROM UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE. AFTER ABOUT A WEEK, I TOOK THE CAR TO MY LOCAL MECHANIC AND HE INDICATED THAT MY CAR NEEDED A NEW WATER PUMP, WHICH HE REPAIRED. THIS DID NOT FIX THE RATTLING NOISE AND HE INFORMED ME THAT MY CAR MOST LIKELY HAD A CRACKED FLEXPLATE. UPON CONTACTING FORD CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE, THEY INDICATED THAT MY CAR WOULD HAVE TO BE CHECKED BY AN AUTHORIZED FORD DEALER TO VERIFY THIS ISSUE. IT WAS VERFIED BY THE DEALER AND THEY HAVE QUOTED ME A REPAIR BILL OF $3,800 AND THAT IS ONLY IF THE ENGINE IS NOT BAD DUE TO THE CRACKED FLEXPLATE ISSUE. FORD HAS NOT OFFERED ANY ASSURANCE THAT THIS WILL NOT RECUR OR ASSISTANCE WITH THE OBVIOUS MANUFACTURERS DEFECT.

SOMETIME OVER THE NIGHT THE REAR GLASS SHATTERED AND MY WIFE'S 2015 FORD EDGE SPORT. NO ONE WAS IN THE VEHICLE AT THE TIME AND THE AMBIENT TEMPERATURE WAS 50 IN OUR GARAGE. SHE NOTICED BROKEN GLASS ON THE GROUND BEFORE LEAVING FOR WORK. THE REAR DEFROST WAS NOT BEING USED AND THE VEHICLE WAS JUST SITTING IN OUR GARAGE. I TOOK QUITE A FEW PHOTOS AND I BEGAN LOOKING INTO OTHER ISSUES WITH THIS VEHICLE TO FIND THIS IS NOT AN UNCOMMON PROBLEM. I'M GLAD SHE WAS NOT DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD OR ON THE HIGHWAY AT THE TIME IT BROKE. GLASS HAS CONTINUED TO FALL INTO THE BACK EVERY TIME YOU OPEN OR CLOSE THE DOOR. I'LL FIRST CONTACT FORD TO SEE IF THIS IS SOMETHING THAT IS COVERED BEFORE LOOKING INTO SAFELITE AUTO GLASS REPLACEMENT. THE VEHICLE CANNOT BE DRIVEN BEFORE THIS IS FIXED.

SHIFTER CABLE DETACHED LEAVING CAR IN CURRENT GEAR HOWEVER DASH INDICATES A DIFFERENT GEAR SUCH AS PARK OR NEUTRAL.

MANUFACTURER RECALL NUMBER 20S42. BRAKE FLUID MAY LEAK FROM ONE OR BOTH FRONTBRAKE FLEXIBLE HOSES. PARTS ARE ANTICIPATED TO BEAVAILABLE 4TH QUARTER 2020. SAFETY RISK YOU MAY EXPERIENCE AN INCREASE IN PEDAL TRAVEL TOGETHER WITH A REDUCTION INTHE RATE OF DECELERATION, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH. ASED ON THE FACT THAT THERE IS IN INCREASED RISK OF ACRASH FORD HAS MISSED THE TIMING OF PARTS AVAILABLE AND HAS OFFERED NO LOANER CAR BASED ON THEIR DELIQUENCY. I FIND THIS TOBE UNACCEPTABLE AND PUTS MY FAMILY AT RISK OF A CRASH FOR ATIME OUTSIDE OF THE NOTICE POSTED ON NHTSA'S WEB SITE.
