    My brakes pedal was going down and I called w.w. auto where I got it from and he said it sounded like a master brake cylinder and he came and got it said he replaced it but 3 weeks later it did it again and he told me to take it to Roberts garage and he said he called them and said the part he bought from AutoZone had a life time warranty and he took them the receipt and got a replacement for the part and they kept my vehicle 2 days and said they bleed them and said there was air in the brake line and told me to bring it back if it did it again and he would put the new part on and I'M GOING TO take it back because it doesn't feel right why did they not have put the replacement part on ?

    The brake pedal goes to the floor with no warning. It has happened many times before. I'm on my second master cylinder, it has all new brake pads and calipers all the way around. It has been in the shop 4 times and no one can figure out what is causing this. There are no leaks and all the rubber hoses are in good shape.

    The Ford Edge has a known and documented issue with the brake booster failing and having to be replaced numerous times. I recently had to apply my brakes suddenly to avoid a collision with a car that cut me off. After noticed the brakes lost pressure and appear to be compromised. This is the second time this has happened after already replacing the same brake booster issue less than 3 years ago. While looking online this appears to be an ongoing problem with this make and model but has not been addressed by the manufacturer. This causes safety issues and repetitive - expensive repair issues.

    Got my car serviced at AAA Car Care Center. After completed the brakes did not work properly, brought the vehicle back and it was checked thoroughly. AAA came to the conclusion that the brake booster completely failed, all other components of the brake system were checked and working properly. Manager of AAA explained this is a Ford only issue and that it was a common issue with my model. My safety and the safety of others were put at risk as I almost crashed into the back of a car stopped at a light. The problem of the brake booster was confirmed by AAA Car Care Center in Tampa, FL. Vehicle has not been inspected by manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others. There were no warning lamps or messages prior to the failure.

    Have a 2011 Ford Edge Limited purchased new from a local Ford dealer. Seems like Ford has had issues with the backup cameras in all models that cameras have been available since 2007, have resisted and continues not to issue a safety recall. Since 2018 NHTSA have required backup cameras as safety equipment in all vehicles. This camera issues is definitely a safety issue. Ford and its dealer will not addressed it unless they charge and excessive amount for the repair running the gamut from $100 to $800 which may or may not correct the problem. NHTSA needs to require and mandate that the Ford Motor Co declared this as a safety recall issue and correct the problem. All their vehicles, new or old, have been having problems with this backup camera safety equipment.

    2011 Ford Edge Sport has had several issues with cylinder misfires. Check engine light will come on and rough idle and ride occurs. It will be different cylinders. The first time it was Cylinder 6 and the issue ended up shorting the computer. We replaced the computer, all the ignition coils and all spark plugs. Wiring checked out fine. Dealer certified car was good to go. Within 6 months it happened again. We replaced the spark plugs again. The issue went away. 6 months later, it’s back again. Seems to almost be seasonal when it starts to get cold. I have spent over $3,000 on repairs. Very frustrating. This vehicle has less than 80,000 miles.

    About a year and a half ago I had a problem in which my headlights and highbeams would turn on but then shut off. If you turned them off and back on, they would come on but go out again. I paid to fix this problem. It's now happening again. It'll be the second time in two years with the same issue. I've searched online and others with the same year car are having the same exact problem. There's no recall listed on this but it's a safety issue that keeps happening. The date of the second incident is 12/5/23.
