2014 FORD EDGE Complaints

Back up camera randomly goes to a blank/black screen. Other times it randomly flips upside down. Many times the picture is grainy and wavy. Completely unreliable. I was told that the cameras just go bad randomly and that it’s my problem. However, it has to be the wiring since occasionally the picture is sharp and occasionally it is right side up. The constant unreliability is a safety hazard.

ABS brakes randomly engage in normal braking conditions. Inspection found a broken Reluctor ring on the front drivers side axle.

The Power Take Off Assembly (PTU) failed. I had it replaced a a Ford Dealership with a genuine Ford PTU. After driving less than 125 miles the PTU failed again and my right front half shaft disengaged without notice on the high when traveling at highway speeds. Upon return to the dealership they noted that the PTU failed and it was replaced at no cost. However, they charged me for the replacement of the Right Front Axel. I contacted Ford Customer Service and contend that recall 14S10 should apply especially after the new PTU failed. They denied my claiming stating that the dealership claimed a torn CV Boot was the cause of my axel disengaging. However there was no mention of a torn CV Boot in the dealerships multipoint inspection of my vehicle when originally brought in. Ford Customer Service and the dealership denied my claim.
