On June 7th, 2022 my wife [XXX] was driving her 2013 Ford Edge and stopped at the Belks Department store located at the Tri-City Mall located in Forest City, NC 28043. She parked her car and went inside to shop. After approximately 10 minutes shopping inside the store, she hears an announcement over the Belks Store intercom “ Would the person driving a White Ford Edge please come to the cosmetic counter. When she walks over to the counter a store employee, and a customer, told her that her car had rolled down the parking lot and hit a parked tractor trailer rig ( trailer only). Fortunately it did not hit any other cars located in the parking lot. The front end of the Ford Edge was severely damaged, including, front hood, front bumper, grilles, coolant fan, and other front end items. The tractor trailer was not damaged. INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

The contact owns a 2013 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while the vehicle was at an independent mechanic for a faulty oxygen sensor, the mechanic informed her that the water pump needed to be replaced. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, and the dealer replaced the water pump and timing chain. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 102,000.

The break booster is failing on this vehicle. I understand that there have been similar issues with other Ford vehicles including recalls. I am wondering if recalls for this issue will be extended to this particular model?

Check engine light turned on while accelerating. When light first came on it cause the car to stall while driving. Had to pull over and turn the car off. Went and had the codes read the code was an EVAP leak. Was told it was the gas cap leak. Gas tank is an easy fuel tank. After research I do believe this issue is associated with NHTSA Campaign: 14v002000

The contact owns a 2013 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while driving approximately 30 MPH, the braking system malfunctioned and the vehicle did not immediately stop while pressing the brake pedal. The contact indicated that the brake pedal extended to the floorboard while depressed. The vehicle was towed to the local dealer who diagnosed that the brake booster had failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure but no assistance was offered. The failure mileage was 73,000.

The brake booster has failed on this model of Ford, and Ford has not acknowledged that this vin # associated with this model of Edge. There are some models of 2013 Ford Edges that they did repair under their CSP program. I feel like they need to extend their coverage across other 2013 Ford Edge vehicles, because other users are experiencing the same thing.

I heard a hissing and when I applied brakes they were spongy and went all the way to the floor. I had to pump them a lot to come to a stop. Very scary. I was told my vehicle was not included in the service bulletin. There are a lot of Ford Edge owners that have had to replace the brake booster but no reimbursement or help from Ford. They are excluding more vehicles with this problem than including. Brake boosters are not a common thing to go out unless you own a for Edge. This needs to be made a must for Ford to replace these.

The adaptive cruise won’t work, traction control, abs brake warning lights stay on. Ford won’t assist or assume in the responsibility.
