2015 FORD EDGE Complaints

THE WHEEL LUG NUTS SWELL UP SO THAT A 21MM WRENCH WONT FIT AND A 22MM WRENCH IS TOO LOOSE. THE LUGS ARE A TWO PIECE CONSTRUCTION AND WHAT HAPPENS IS THE INNER PIECE CA ROADS AND SWELLS THE OUTSIDE PIECE. DEALER SAYS ALL 20 NUTS HAVE TO BE REPLACED AT A COAST OF $200. FORD HAS HAD THIS PROBLEM FOR YEARS ! MY NEPHEW HAD THE SAME PROBLEM ON HIS 2011 F-150 FORD TRUCK.I CALLED FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THEY GAVE ME A CLAIM NUMBER CAS-17162485. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE IF I GET A FLAT TIRE MY LUG WRENCH IS USELESS AND I WOULD BE STRANDED. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS PROBLEM , TALKING WITH THE FORD SERVICE TECH.AT THE FORD DEALERSHIP THIS HAS BEEN A ONGOING PROBLEM FOR YEARS

SITTING IN MY GARAGE, THE CAR WAS RUNNING AND WARMING UP. REAR DEFROSTER WAS ON AS WAS HEAT IN CAR. OAT WAS 35 DEG F. REAR WINDOW EXPLODED ALONG BOTTOM EDGE WITH NO OUTSIDE INFLUENCE. MANY OTHER EDGE OWNERS HAVE REPORTED SIMILAR INCIDENTS OF THE REAR WINDOW SHATTERING ON ITS OWN. PLEASE INVESTIGATE AND ISSUE A RECALL. THANK GOD IT DIDN'T HAPPEN 1000 MIKES FROM HOME ON A LONELY INTERSTATE AT NIGHT!

ON FEBRUARY 7, 2019 AT APPROXIMATELY 7:30PM I ARRIVED AT MY HOME AND PARKED THE VEHICLE IN MY DRIVEWAY. NOTHING UNUSUAL WAS NOTED ABOUT THE VEHICLE. AT APPROXIMATELY 9:50PM THAT EVENING I ATTEMPTED TO BACK OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY. THE VEHICLE STARTED NORMALLY BUT HAD NO POWER STEERING. THE FOLLOWING FAULTS WERE DISPLAYED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL: "STEERING ASSIST FAULT SERVICE REQUESTED, "HILL START ASSIST NOT AVAILABLE", "SERVICE ADVANCE TRAC". THE "TRACTION CONTROL OFF" ICON WAS DISPLAYED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. I COULD NOT CHECK THE "TRACTION CONTROL" BOX ON THE DRIVER ASSIST MENU. I DID NOT ATTEMPT TO MOVE THE VEHICLE OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY. ON THE MORNING OF FEBRUARY 8, 2019 THE VEHICLE WAS LOADED ON A ROLLBACK AND TAKEN TO THE FORD DEALER FOR REPAIR. IN THE AFTERNOON OF FEBRUARY 8, THE FORD DEALER SERVICE INDIVIDUAL ADVISED ME THAT THE STEERING BOX ASSEMBLY WAS DEFECTIVE AND WOULD NOT BE AVAILABLE FOR INSTALLATION UNTIL MONDAY FEBRUARY 11. FORTUNATELY THE LOSS OF STEERING EVENT HAPPENED IN MY DRIVEWAY AND NOT WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION.

GRABBING BRAKES - KNOWN BRAKE BOOSTER ISSUE - BRAKES GRAB A LOW SPEEDS AND IF YOU DON'T RELAX YOUR FOOT ON THE BRAKE PEDAL THE BRAKES COULD LOCK UP CAUSING AN UNSAFE CONDITION. THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION IS REFERENCED - NHTSA #10081005. IN SOME CASES VIA FORUM COMMENTS, THE BRAKE BOOSTER WAS REPLACED AND THE PROBLEM WAS SOLVED HOWEVER, THIS IS NOT APPLIED CONSISTENTLY ACROSS FORD DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPARTMENTS (AUTONATION FORD LITTLETON). THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE SINCE WE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE NEW AT THE DEALERSHIP NOTED ABOVE

REAR WINDOW SHATTERED ON OWN WHEN CAR WAS PARKED. COPS CAME AND NO EVIDENCE OF FOUL PLAY. WAS PARKED ON SIDE OF STREET FOR 15 MINS WHEN OCCURRED AND IN 30 DEGREE WEATHER

MOON ROOF WILL NOT CLOSE. OUT OF ALIGNMENT.....2ND TIME THIS HAPPENED. FIRST TIME WAS AFTER DEFECTIVE GLASS FIXED AS GLASS HAD RANDOM CRACKS. CAR WAS PARKED BOTH TIMES WHEN THESE PROBLEMS OCCURRED. ONE IN SUMMER, NEXT IN WINTER.

TAKARA RECALL I HAVE HAD CONTINUOUS ISSUES WITH MY 2015 EDGE WITH THE DOORS BECOMING AJAR. THE FIRST TIME I WAS STUCK IN BELOW ZERO CONDITIONS, WITHOUT BEING ABLE TO HAVE MY HEART ON CLOSE MY DOORS OR LOCK THEM. IF THAT WASNT ENOUGH, I HAD TO CALL A TOW TRUCK BECAUSE MY CAR BATTERY DIED AS A RESULT OF BEING ABLE TO CLOSE THE DOORS. THIS HAS HAPPENED COUNTLESS TIMES AND NOW AGAIN I HAVE ANOTHER ISSUE BUT THE LIFT GATE IS AJAR. THIS TIME HOWEVER THE CAR IS STILL DRIVING. HOW CAN FORD NOT RECALL THIS? YOU SAY IT ISN'T A SAFETY ISSUE BUT I COULD HAVE FROZE TO DEATH, BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED WHEN I'M DRIVING AND THE DOOR SUDDENLY FLIES OPEN. CORRECT THIS. I WILL END UP FILING A LAWSUIT IF ANYTHING HAPPENS AGAIN. I JUST BOUGHT THIS CAR A YEAR AGO. YOU CANNOT JUSTIFY A $40,000 CAR NOT BEING ABLE TO OPEN OR CLOSE MY DOORS OR TRUNK. GET IT FIGURED OUT OR I WILL BE CONTACTING SOMEONE WHO WILL. I'VE BEEN IN SUPPORT OF FORD SINCE I WAS 16. YOU'RE ABOUT TO LOOSE A VALUABLE CUSTOMER AND I'M ABOUT TO SPREAD THE WORD HOW FORD CANT STAND BEHIND THEIR VEHICLES.

REAR HATCH TAILLIGHT LENS HAS CONDENSATION FORM IN IT MAKEING THE LIGHT UNIT FOGS UP. THE CONDENSATION DOES NOT DISAPPEAR IN WARM WEATHER AND IN COLD WEATHER ICE UP. AFTER CHECKING WITH THE DEALER THEY SAY WHEN THEY REPLACE THE ENTIRE UNIT THIS OCCUR AGAIN. THEY SAID IT IS A BAD DESIGN. I LIVE IN A STATE THAT REQUUIRES A VEHICLE YEARLY STATE INSPECTION.AND FOGED UP LENS IS A CONSERN. THIS DOES NOT LEAK INTO THE LENS IN RAIN OR CAR WASH. THIS AUTO IS KEPT GARAGED EXCEPT WHEN IN USE.

JUST DRIVING DOWN RURAL ROAD DOING 45 MPH, ENGINE JUST SHUT OFF, WARNING CAME UP SAID TRANSMISSION NOT IN PARK, PUT IN PARK IT RESTARTED AND WAS FINE THE REMAINDER OF TRIP

WHEN DRIVING MY VEHICLE, THE RPMS SKY ROCKET BUT WON'T CHANGE. IT'S NOT SHIFTING GEARS AS AN AUTOMATIC IS SUPPOSED TO. ALSO, THE ENGINE HAS BEEN MAKING A WEIRD NOISE ON AND OFF AND WHEN WE TOOK IT IN, THEY TURNED IT ON AND PRESSED THE GAS AND SAID IT WAS FINE. NEVER HAD IT ON RECORD OR ANYTHING. THE FUEL PUMP WENT OUT ABOUT 23K AND NOW THE CAR IS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE AT 50K WITH THE FUEL PUMP OR THE SAME SYMPTOMS AS IT DID BEFORE HAVING THE CAR LUNGE FORWARD OR VIBRATE.
