2015 FORD EDGE Complaints

JUST OVER A MONTH AFTER PURCHASE, MOONROOF BEGAN TO MALFUNCTION. IT WOULD OPEN, BUT NOT CLOSE. VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY IN A PARKING LOT.

2015 FORD EDGE TRANSMISSION SHIFTS EXTREMELY HARD WHEN CHANGING ACCELERATION RATES FROM LOW TO HIGH. SOME TIMES YOU CAN HEAR THE ENGINE REV BEFORE IT DROPS IT INTO GEAR. THIS HAPPENS IN BOTH CITY AND HIGHWAY DRIVING AT ALL TIMES OF THE YEAR.

REAR ROOF GLASS HAS NOW CRACKED FOR A SECOND TIME. SPIDER-LIKE VEINS. INSURANCE CLAIM COVERED THE FIRST REPAIR, BUT CLEARLY THE MANUFACTURER HAS AN ISSUE BASED ON THE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. COULDN'T TELL YOU WHEN OR HOW IT HAPPENED, BUT THERE IS NO VISIBLE DAMAGE (I.E. ROCK, ETC.) THAT COULD HAVE CAUSED THE BREAKAGE. FORD NEEDS TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE.

LOST ANTIFREEZE..NO LEAKS..2 QTS WEEK..HOLDS 21PSI TEST ONE HOUR..OVERHEATED ONE TIME WHILE IDLING IN DRIVWAY

WHILE DRIVING MY VEHICLE BETWEEN 45 AND 60 MPH ON CITY STREETS AND RURAL HIGHWAYS, RECEIVED A MESSAGE ON MY SCREEN STATING "THE USB DEVICE IS CONSUMING EXCESSIVE POWER. IT MAY NOT WORK CORRECTLY WITH SYNC."; BUT, THIS IS THE SAME DEVICE I'VE BEEN USING PLUGGED INTO THE SAME USB PORT EVER SINCE I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE ON 07/07/15. I COULDN'T GET THIS MESSAGE TO CLEAR; BUT, SOON AFTERWARDS THIS MESSAGE APPEARED "NAVIGATION FAULT. PLEASE SEE THE TOUCHSCREEN" AND THE TOUCHSCREEN SHOWED THIS MESSAGE "INSERT NAV SD CARD"; BUT, MY NAV SD CARD WHICH IS AN A8 WAS INSERTED. SOON AFTER THIS MESSAGE APPEARED THE SCREEN WENT COMPLETELY DARK BEFORE IT BEGAN "PERFORMING SCHEDULED SYSTEM MAINTENANCE". MY VEHICLE WAS ORIGINALLY IN THE SHOP FOR THIS SAME ISSUE ON 07/19, 08/02 AND 08/04. DURING THE 07/19 VISIT THE FOLLOWING CORRECTIVE ACTIONS WERE TAKEN BY THE DEALERSHIP: S154 DIAG, POWER RESET AND APIM UPDATE TO SOFTWARE LEVEL 15128. FOLLOW-UP VISIT 08/02 INCLUDED THE FOLLOWING CORRECTIVE ACTIONS BY THE DEALERSHIP: S154 DIAG, APIM POWER RESET AND MASTER RESET. WILL HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL MONDAY, 08/07 TO HEAR BACK FROM THE DEALERSHIP REGARDING RECOMMENDED ACTIONS TO RESOLVE THIS ONGOING ISSUE.

MY CAR HAS LOST ALL POWER WHILE DRIVING MULTIPLE TIMES. THE DASH SAYS "FULL POWER ACCESSORY ACTIVE". I HAVE TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND RESTART IT. THE LAST TIME I WAS DRIVING 60 MPH ON A BUSY HIGHWAY SO THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION ESPECIALLY IF I WAS SOMEWHERE THAT DIDN'T HAVE A AN AREA FOR ME TO PULL OVER OR HAD I BEEN STUCK IN THE MIDDLE LANE! THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED IMMEDIATELY!

THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM INCLUDING PART OF THE DASHBOARD AS WELL AS THE VIEWING SCREEN, RADIO, CLOCK, NAVIGATION, FRONT/REAR CAMERAS, CLIMATE CONTROL AND TELEPHONE PAIRING ARE FREQUENTLY RESETTING WHILE IN USE SHOWING A MESSAGE THAT THE SYSTEM IS UNDERGOING ROUTINE SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE; HOWEVER, THIS IS OCCURRING MUCH TOO FREQUENTLY.

I PULLED INTO MY GARAGE, PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK, & NOTICED THE LETTERS DISPLAYED BEHIND THE STEERING WHEEL STILL SHOWED THAT I WAS IN NEUTRAL EVEN THOUGH MY GEAR SHIFT WAS IN PARK. THE GEAR SHIFT WOULD NOT BUDGE FROM PARK EVEN WITH MY CAR ON. I TURNED THE CAR OFF & ON A FEW TIMES, BUT STILL NO CHANGE. I COULD ACTUALLY ROLL MY CAR FORWARD & BACKWARD BY HAND WHILE IN THE GARAGE WHILE THIS WAS HAPPENING. I PUT MY EMERGENCY BRAKE ON TO AVOID ANY FURTHER, UNWANTED MOVEMENT. I CALLED AAA TO COME TOW MY VEHICLE OUT OF THE GARAGE & TAKE TO THE LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP. THEY DETERMINED THAT THE SHIFTING CABLE HAD BROKE, & $350 LATER I GOT MY CAR BACK. THANK GOODNESS THIS HAPPENED IN MY GARAGE, BECAUSE IF THAT HAD HAPPENED ANYWHERE ELSE I OR SOMEONE ELSE COULD'VE BEEN INJURED OR CAUSED A WRECK IF THE CAR HAD ROLLED HAD I NOT NOTICED THE PROBLEM IN TIME. THE DEALERSHIP HAD SAID THAT THIS WAS THE 2ND FORD EDGE THAT THIS EXACT PROBLEM HAD OCCURRED WITH IN THE LAST MONTH. BIG CONCERN!

WHEN MERGING ONTO THE INTERSTATE AND YOU ACCELERATE AND GO FROM APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH TO 75 PMH THERE IS ALWAYS A SMOKING -BURNING SMELL COMING OUT OF THE A/C EXHAUST VENTS INSIDE THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT OF THE CAR. I HAD AN EXPLORER BEFORE AND IT DID THE SAME THING. I THOUGHT MY ENGINE WAS GOING TO BLOW UP EVEN THOUGH IT ONLY HAD APPROXIMATELY 30K MILES ON IT SO I TRADED IT. NOW THIS EDGE IS DOING THE SAME THING ... IS THIS AN ONGOING PROBLEM THAT IS TRYING TO BE REPAIRED SOON. I ASKED IF THE 2018'S HAD THIS PROBLEM THE THE FORD DEALERSHIP SAID YES. SAME THING HAPPENS WHEN I PASS SOMEONE ON A REGULAR HIGHWAY ANY TIME YOU ACCELERATE YOUR SPEED FROM A LOWER SPEED TO A HIGHER ONE. THANKS

FRONT PORTION OF SUNROOF HAS RANDOM WAVY CRACKS THROUGHOUT THE GLASS. NORMAL DRIVING KEPT IN GARAGE AND ONLY HAS 32K MILES ON VEHICLE.
