2010 FORD EDGE Complaints

MY CAR STARTED LEAKING TRANSMISSION FLUID, AND AS I CONTINUE TO DRIVE IT IT STARTED TO CUT OFF. I TOOK IT TO TWO DIFFERENT REPAIR SHOPS FOR SECOND OPINION. THEY BOTH TOLD ME THAT THE ENGINE WAS GONE. THE CAR HAS LESS THAN 50,000 MILES ON IT, AND IT'S A 2010 HOW CAN THAT BE? I NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE ENGINE RECALL FOR THIS CAR. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR AN ENGINE PLEASE HELP ME BECAUSE THIS IS NOT RIGHT. I KNOW THERE IS A SAFETY RECALL ON A FUEL LEAK FOR THIS MODEL CAR. I'VE ALSO RESEARCHED SOMETHINGS ABOUT ENGINE RECALLS AND FOUND THAT THERE IS, BUT I WANT TO KNOW FOR SURE WHEN I TAKE THE CAR TO THE FORD REPAIR SHOP. PLEASE HELP ME. I AM THANKING YOU IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR HELP.

TAKATA RECALL: FORD HAS NO REMEDY/ACTION FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF OUR RECALLED TAKATA PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. OUR DEALER, STAR FORD IN GLENDALE, CA, HAS NO ANSWER. I HAVE GREAT ANXIETY OVER DRIVING A CAR WITH THE POTENTIAL TO KILL MYSELF OR MY PASSENGER. THE NHTSA SHOULD BE FORCING FORD TO PROVIDE A REMEDY FOR CAR OWNERS. WE NEED TO BE PROTECTED FROM THIS MASSIVE FRAUD AND ABUSE. TAKATA HAS NOW BEEN CONVICTED OF MULTIPLE CRIMES, THE CUSTOMERS OF FORD ARE IN DANGER AND WE ARE NOT RECEIVING ACTION. THIS IS A CONSIDERABLE HARDSHIP TO MYSELF AND I WANT FORD TO TAKE ACTION - REPLACE AIRBAG IMMEDIATELY.

MARCH19, 2017 WHILE DRIVING 20 MPH FROM OUR NEIGHBORHOOD TO CHURCH WITH MY WIFE, THERE WAS A LOUD CLUNKING FROM FRONT PASSENGER SIDE. WE TURNED ONTO THE MAIN ROAD AND AS SPEED INCREASED TO 55 MPH, THE WINDSHIELD CRACKED AND I NOTICED THE HOOD OF CAR WAS RAISED UP ABOUT AN INCH ABOVE THE FENDER. WE IMMEDIATELY TURNED AROUND AND DROVE SLOWLY BACK TO THE HOUSE. THE ATTACHED PHOTOS SHOW WHAT HAD HAPPENED. THERE IS CONSIDERABLE DAMAGE TO THE SHEET METAL BODY COMPONENTS, WINDSHIELD, PLASTIC PARTS. THERE ARE MANY SIMILAR EXAMPLES OF THE STRUT TOWER SPOT WELD FAILURE REPORTED ON THE INTERNET. ALL SEEM TO BE ON THE PASSENGER SIDE.

WHEN PULLING AWAY FROM A DEAD STOP ,THE TRANSMISSION WILL OCCASIONALLY NOT ENGAGE WHICH FEELS LIKE IT IS GOING INTO A "NEUTRAL" FEELING AND THEN WILL BANG INTO GEAR . IT ALSO FEELS LIKE THE TRANSMISSION WILL SLIP OUT GEAR AND THEN REENGAGE WHILE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. LAST THE ACCELERATION IS NOT THERE WHEN MERGING INTO HIGHWAY SPEEDS OR JUST ACCELERATING ,THE GAS PEDDLE IS PUSHED BUT THE CAR WILL NOT ACCELERATE CAUSING A RISKY SITUATION WHEN TRAFFIC IS BEARING DOWN ON YOU AND YOU CAN NOT GET SAFELY UP TO HIGHWAY SPEEDS.
