2009 FORD EDGE Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH, THE CONTACT HEARD AN EXPLOSION UNDER THE VEHICLE. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT SMOKE ENTERED THE CABIN OF THE VEHICLE, WHICH HINDERED HIS VISIBILITY. AS A RESULT, THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE CRASHED INTO A POLE AND CAUGHT FIRE UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FIRE EXTINGUISHED ON ITS OWN DUE TO THE COLD. A FIRE REPORT WAS FILED. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED LOWER BACK AND SHOULDER INJURIES BY STRIKING THE BOTTOM OF THE DASHBOARD. THE CONTACT'S DAUGHTER SEATED IN THE REAR PASSENGER SEAT SUSTAINED BACK, NECK, AND CHEST INJURIES, AND SUSTAINED BREATHING PROBLEMS. BOTH OCCUPANTS SOUGHT MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE CONTACT CALLED BIG THREE AUTO SALES (17020 E 8 MILE RD, DETROIT, MI 48205, (313) 245-0800) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE VIN WAS ASSOCIATED WITH NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V001000 (AIR BAGS). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

I CAN SMELL FUEL COMING FROM THE REAR OF THE CAR. SOMETIMES IT LEAKS ENOUGH TO LEAVE STAINS ON THE STREET. TOOK IT TO METRO FORD OF OKLAHOMA CITY AND THEY SAID MY CAR WAS NOT INCLUDED IN ANY TYPE OF RECALL. AFTER READING ABOUT THE RECALL FORD ISSUED ON MANY PREVIOUS MODELS, I FEEL THAT MY PROBLEM IS BEING AVOIDED AND THEY AREN'T CONCERNED ABOUT MY FAMILY'S SAFETY. VERY UPSET. WHY IS MY GAS TANK LEAKING FUEL?

I HAVE BEEN TAKING MY CAR FOR AT LEAST THE PAST 3 YEARS TO HAVE THE BRAKES LOOKED AT. THE PEDAL GOES TOO FAR TO THE FLOOR. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO 3 DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS TO HAVE THE BRAKES LOOKED AT, ONLY TO BE TOLD THERE IS NO PROBLEM. I JUST HAD NEW FRONT BRAKES AND ROTORS PUT ON AUGUST 2019. MY SON WAS DRIVING THE CAR TO WORK THIS MORNING AND HAD AN ACCIDENT GOING THROUGH A TOLL BOOTH. HE SAID WHEN HE PRESSED ON THE BRAKES THE CAR JUST WOULD NOT STOP AT A GOOD RATE, AND THE PEDAL WAS SPONGIE. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL ON THE BRAKE SYSTEM FOR 2009 FORD EDGES. I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS COMPLAINT. THANK GOD NOBODY WAS INJURED, BUT WHAT IS IT GOING TO TAKE TO GET THIS TAKEN CARE OF.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 FORD EDGE. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, THE CONTACT WALKED BY THE VEHICLE AND SMELLED A FUEL ODOR. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO STATED THAT THE FUEL TANK NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT SPOKE WITH COWLES PARKWAY FORD (LOCATED AT 13779 NOBLEWOOD PLAZA, WOODBRIDGE, VA 22193, (703) 986-5500) AND STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS ASSOCIATED WITH NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V712000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE); HOWEVER, THE PART WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 180,000. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

FORD HAS A WELL KNOWN TRANSMISSION ISSUE. THE FORD EDGE WILL DECIDE THAT IT WILL NOT GO INTO GEAR WHILE IN TRAFFIC, THEN WHEN YOU RESTART IT IT RESETS AND THE PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE GONE. SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET KILLED. THE TRANSMISSIONS HIT HARD OR WON'T GO INTO GEAR. THESE ISSUES CAN'T BE FIXED BY THE AVERAGE CONSUMER.. TRANSMISSION SLIPS THE YOU PUT THE CAR INTO PARK OR NEUTRAL AND THEN IT WILL GO INTO GEAR, BUT I'M AFRAID I'M GOING TO GET HIT. THE CAR IS IN MOTION WHEN IT SLIPS OR SKIPS OR GETS STUCK. I DON'T REALLY KNOW WHAT'S HAPPENING.

TAKATA RECALL ISSUE. I RECEIVED A NOTICE OF THIS RECALL IN JANUARY 2019. I CALLED MY LOCAL DEALER, MULLINAX FORD TO HAVE IT RESOLVED. THEY TOOK MY VIN, NAME AND NUMBER AND SAID THEY'D CALL ME WHEN THE PARTS BECAME AVAILABLE. I RECEIVED ANOTHER NOTICE IN APRIL SO AGAIN, I MADE THE CALL TO MULLINAX. THEY TOOK DOWN MY INFORMATION AGAIN AND SAID THEY'D CONTACT ME. HERE IT IS, JUNE 10TH 2019. I CALLED THEM AGAIN AND THEY SAID IT WILL STILL BE WEEKS POSSIBLY MONTHS BEFORE THE PARTS COME IN. UNACCEPTABLE! I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE MY CAR!

I HAVE ONLY HAD EDGE SINCE 2017 AND I PURCHASED IT OUT RIGHT AND I AM NOTICING SOME THINGS THAT ARE NOT RIGHT. HARD TO STOP AND WOBBLING WHEEL ON FRONT DRIVER SIDE AND MAKES LIKE A RUBBING NOISE. BRAKES ON IT OUR WEARING OUT ALOT FASTER AND I HAVE ALREADY HAD A BLOWOUT ON HIGHWAY ON THAT TIRE AND THEY HAD TO TOW IT AND IT COST ME ALMOST $500 TO GET IT OUT AND ITS TREAD IS GETTING WORN DOWN ALOT FASTER AS WELL. I SEEN ON HERE THAT THERE IS A SPINDLE ISSUE?

I HAVE A 2009 FORD EDGE SEL WITH 113,300 MILES. I HAD BEEN EXPERIENCING BRAKE ISSUES WITH SQUEAKING AND HAVING TO PUSH THE BRAKE PEDAL DOWN ALL THE WAY WITH FEAR THAT THE CAR WOULD NOT STOP. THERE WERE NO WARNING SIGNS OR WARNING LIGHTS AND JUST CAME OUT OF THE BLUE. IT WOULD HAPPEN WHETHER I WAS JUST DRIVING SLOW OR FASTER ON ANY TYPE OF ROAD OR WEATHER CONDITION. I SAW FORD PUT AN EXTRA WARRANTY ON EDGES FROM 2010-2013 REGARDING THE SAME ISSUE VIA 13N02. I HAVE READ A LOT OF COMPLAINTS FROM YEARS PREVIOUS AND AFTER THIS EXTENDED WARRANTY. I THINK THIS SHOULD BE LOOKED INTO AS I HAVE A YOUNG SON WHO I DRIVE TO SCHOOL A LOT AND SINCE THERE WAS NO WARNING ABOUT BRAKE FAILURE I'M JUST THANKFUL NOTHING BAD HAPPENED. I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC AND WAS TOLD IT WAS THE MASTER CYLINDER AND A BAD POWER BRAKE BOOSTER. THANK YOU.

TAKATA RECALL, 19S01/NHTSA RECALL 19V-001, MY FORD DEALER HAS NO REPLACEMENT AIRBAG AVAILABLE AND FORD COMPANY GIVES ME RECORDED MESSAGE. ITS BEEN OVER 6 YEARS NOW, WHEN WILL MY CAR GET REPAIRED?

I CAN SMELL GAS AT THE REAR OF MY CAR. I HAD MY STRUTS SERVICED AND THE MECHANIC NOTICED CORROSION AND A FUEL LEAK.HE DIDN'T WANT TO DROP THE TANK TO GET A CLOSER LOOK FR FEAR IT WOULD VOID A RECALL REPAIR. I CHECKED FOR A RECALL AND NOTED THERE WAS ONE FOR CERTAIN 2009 EDGE'S BUT MY VIN DIDN'T SHOW ONE.
