2008 Ford Edge Complaint Log

WHEN PULLING INTO A PARKING SPACE AT VERY SLOW SPEED AND MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE, THE ENGINE WILL SUDDENLY INCREASE IN SPEED. THIS IS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM, IT FIRST HAPPENED ONCE ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO AND DIDN'T HAPPEN AGAIN UNTIL ABOUT 4 WEEKS AGO NOW IT OCCURS AT LEAST ONCE A WEEK. IT'S NOT FLOOR MATS OR ANYTHING ELSE ON THE GAS PEDAL ! SO FAR NO DAMAGE OR INJURIES BECAUSE I SHUT OFF THE ENGINE.WHEN I RESTART, ALL SEEMS NORMAL UNTIL IT HAPPENS AGAIN LATER ON. ALSO NOTE THAT "WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN?" ANSWER IS THE LATEST DATE IT HAPPENED

AIRBAG RECALL ANNOUNCED A LONG TIME AGO. DEALER SAID PARTS AREN'T AVAILABLE BUT THEY WOULD CALL ME WHEN THEY WERE. STILL NOT FIXED.

BRAKES ON MY 2008 FORD EDGE ARE MAKING A HISSING NOISE WHEN DEPRESSED AND DO NOT STOP THE CAR UNLESS I PRESS THE BRAKES ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND EVEN WITH THAT, THE CAR DOES NOT STOP COMPLETELY, ESPECIALLY AT HIGH RATES OF SPEED. TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC TO GET NEW BRAKE PADS APPLIED AND WAS TOLD IT WAS THE BRAKE BOOSTER. I LOOKED UP A RECALL FOR THE BRAKE BOOSTER ON THIS SITE ONLY TO FIND MANY COMPLAINTS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM BUT NO RECALL.

POWER STEERING FLUID LEAKS DUE TO PTU GOING OUT.

TAKATA RECALL FOR PASSAGER AIRBAG HAVEN'T HEARD FROM ANYONE SO I CAN GET THIS REPLACED

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTIFICATION FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V384000 (AIR BAGS). JANSSEN FORD OF YORK (2605 SOUTH LINCOLN AVENUE, YORK, NEBRASKA 68467, (402) 362-3326) WAS MADE AWARE OF THE RECALL AND STATED THAT THE TAKATA AIR BAG RECALL WOULD NOT BE PERFORMED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN.

SEVERAL TIMES NOW, MY CAR WILL NOT ACCELERATE. THIS HAS HAPPENED WHILE GOING 40, 60, 70MPH ON THE HWY. I HAVE HAD TO INSTANTLY PUT HAZARDS ON AND TRY TO PULL OVER WHICH ISN'T ALWAYS EASY DURING RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC. WHEN THIS HAPPENS, I PULL OFF, AND THEN MY CAR LURCHES FORWARD AND SHIFTS GEARS AND THEN CAN ACCELERATE. THIS HAS ALSO HAPPENED WHEN I HAVE BEEN AT A COMPLETE STOP, AND TRIED TO ACCELERATE. WHEN YOU CANNOT MOVE FORWARD, OR CRAWL AT SPEEDS UNDER 5MPH, BUT YOUR RPMS ARE REACHING 7, THERE IS SOMETHING SERIOUSLY WRONG. I HAVE TAKEN IT IN A FEW TIMES ONLY TO BE TOLD THEY CANNOT FIND OR RECREATE THE ISSUES, SO THEY SEND ME ON MY WAY. IT SOUNDS AS IF MANY OTHERS ARE HAVING THE EXACT SAME ISSUES. I AM VERY NERVOUS THAT MY LUCK IN PULLING OFF OUT OF HARMS WAY WILL RUN OUT. I HAVE CALLED MY DEALERSHIP TO ONCE AGAIN HAVE IT LOOKED AT BUT THEY CANNOT GET ME IN FOR 10 DAYS.... SHOULD I EVEN DRIVE THIS CAR IF IT IS NOT RELIABLE?? I TRULY AM FRIGHTENED TO DRIVE NOW, AND THIS IS MY ONLY CAR AND AM A SINGLE MOTHER. NOT SURE WHAT I AM SUPPOSED TO DO. I REALLY HOPE THAT FORD RECALLS THIS, AS I HAVE READ THAT THERE ARE SEVERAL LAWSUITS PENDING THIS EXACT ISSUE.

TAKATA INFLATORS I HAVE BEEN ATTEMPTING TO HAVE THIS ISSUE RESOLVED FOR MANY MONTHS, EVEN HAVING APPOINTMENTS WITH MY SERVICE DEPARTMENT CANCELED. THE REASON FOR THIS I'M TOLD IS THAT THE PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE. I AM EXTREMELY CONCERNED DUE TO THE FACT THAT YOUR WEBSITE AND FORD WEBSITE HAS SENT LETTERS STATING THAT THE RECALL WAS URGENT AND SHOULD BE ADDRESSED IMMEDIATELY.

TAKATA RECALL IT'S BEEN ENTIRELY TOO LONG FOR THE MANUFACTURE TO NOT HAVE A FIX FOR THIS ISSUE

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V384000 (AIR BAGS). THE PARTS TO DO THE REPAIR WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. BERKELEY FORD (1511 US-52, MONCKS CORNER, SC 29461, (843) 761-8284) WAS CONTACTED AND CONFIRMED THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE FOR THE RECALL REMEDY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

TAKATA RECALL - I HAVE RECEIVED SEVERAL LETTERS ABOUT THIS RECALL YET THERE STILL ARE NOT ANY PARTS AVAILABLE. MOST RECENTLY WAS A LETTER FROM THE NYS DMV WARNING OF THE DANGER OF DRIVING MY VEHICLE WITHOUT THE AIRBAG REPAIRED AND THAT I COULD GET A RENTAL VEHICLE UNTIL PARTS ARE AVAILABLE AND MY VEHICLE IS REPAIRED. I CALLED MY LOCAL DEALER TODAY AND WAS TOLD THAT THE PARTS STILL ARE NOT AVAILABLE, THEY SHOULD BE BY END OF SEPTEMBER, AND TO CALL BACK THEN. WHEN I ASKED ABOUT A RENTAL VEHICLE AS INSTRUCTED IN LETTERS FROM BOTH FORD AND THE NYS DMV, I WAS TOLD THAT RENTAL VEHICLES ARE ALSO NOT AVAILABLE. WHEN CHECKING FOR MORE INFO, THERE IS INDICATION THAT MY VEHICLE IS STILL DRIVEABLE. IS IT REALLY SAFE TO DRIVE OR NOT? WHY AM I TOLD TO GET THIS "POTENTIALLY LIFESAVING REPAIR" AND PARTS ARE AVAILABLE IF THEY ARE NOT? IF IT IS A "POTENTIALLY LIFESAVING REPAIR" THEN SHOULD I REALLY BE DRIVING MY CAR?

MY TURN SIGNAL BULB SOCKET FRIES REPEATEDLY. THIS WILL BE THE FOURTH TIME IN 2 YEARS REPLACING IT. IT BURNS UP THE SOCKET AND MELTS THE BOTTOM OF THE LIGHT BULB. I GOT THE PARTS FROM FORD DEALERSHIP ALSO BUT I HAVE READ ONLINE ANY PEOPLE HAVING ISSUES WITH IT. IT JUST GOES OUT ALL OF A SUDDEN.

TAKATA RECALL BEEN OVER A YEAR AND STILL NO PARTS AVAILABLE FOR THE BOMB IN MY VEHICLE. FORD SAYS IT IS SAFE BUT THERE ARE PEOPLE KILLED AND HURT BY SHRAPNEL FROM BAD AIRBAGS. FORD HAS AN OPEN BOUNTY ON 2006 RANGER PICKUPS FOR THIS ISSUE.

TAKATA RECALL. RECALL HAPPENED JAN 2017. IT'S NOW AUG 2018 AND THERE IS NO FIX FOR THIS ISSUE. IT SEEMS RIDICULOUS AND VERY UNSAFE THAT THE ONLY OPTION I HAVE IS TO PAY FOR A RENTAL CAR WHEN THE COMPANY HAS HAD ALMOST 2 YEARS TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. I CALLED FORD ABOUT A MONTH AGO AND THEY TOLD ME THERE IS STILL NO FIX FOR THE PROBLEM AND WON'T BE FOR A WHILE YET.

AT 90,000 MILES THE TRANSMISSION STARTED SLIPPING TOOK IT TO THE TRANSMISSION SHOP DID A DIAGNOSTIC CHANGE THE TRANSMISSION OIL AND NOTHING CAME ON THE TEST THEY SAID THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT IT SLIPPED AGAIN IN A COUPLE WEEKS I HAD TO PULL OVER PUT IT IN PARK STARTED AGAIN AND IT WENT. AFTER EIGHT MONTHS OF WORKING GOOD YESTERDAY SAME SLIPPING HAPPENED AGAIN TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC DID A DIAGNOSTIC AND AGAIN CAME OUT OK THIS IS CRAZY. PLANNING A TRIP AND HE SAYS I WOULDN'T TAKE THE CAR BECAUSE YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT WILL HAPPEN THE TRANSMISSION SEEMS TO BE SLIPPING BUT THERE'S NO RECALLS ON IT AND READ A LOT OF COMPLAINTS ON THIS WHY IS THERE NO RECALL?

TAKATA RECALL- I HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED OF THE RECALL AND EVERY FORD DEALER I HAVE CALLED HAS SAID THEY DON'T HAVE THE PARTS AND THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHEN THEY WILL BE AVAILABLE. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE. NEW YORK STATE DMV SENT A NOTICE THAT THIS IS AN URGENT RECALL AND IF THE AIR BAG RANDOMLY DEPLOYS IT CAN CAUSE SERIOUS HARM TO ANYONE IN THE CAR. HOW CAN I REPAIR MY CAR IF PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE, THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS. I WOULD VERY MUCH LIKE TO HAVE THE REPAIRS DONE SO I WILL HAVE PEACE OF MIND AND FEEL SAFE DRIVING MY CAR.

I HAVE HAD A RECALL ON THE TAKATA AIRBAGS FOR APPROXIMATELY 1 YEAR AND FORD IS UNABLE TO FIX DUE TO UNAVAILABLE REPLACEMENT PARTS. WE HAVE TRIED SEVERAL FORD SERVICE CENTERS IN NY AND PA. I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM DMV WHICH STATES THAT THE SITUATION COULD "KILL OR SERIOUSLY INJURE YOU AND YOUR PASSENGERS...". I AM SHOCKED THAT FORD ISN'T DOING MORE TO REMEDY THIS SITUATION AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

TAKATA RECALL - AFTER MORE THAN 2 YEAR THERE ARE STILL NO REMEDIES. FORD HAS PASSED MULTIPLE PROMISED TIMELINES FOR COMPLETION. RECENTLY RECEIVED A DOCUMENT OFFERING PARTIAL ($30/DAY) PAYMENT FOR A RENTAL VEHICLE UNTIL THEY CAN DETERMINE HOW TO REPAIR.

YESTERDAY, THE VEHICLE DID NOT STOP WHEN IT WAS SUPPOSED TO STOP. I DEPRESSED THE BRAKES, BUT NEEDED TO APPLY EXCESSIVE FORCE AND THEY MADE A HISSING SOUND. THE VEHICLE SLOWLY COASTED TO A STOP. IT WAS A TERRIFYING INCIDENT, ESPECIALLY SINCE I HAVE A 5 YEAR OLD SON. THE FORD DEALERSHIP CONFIRMED THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER HAD FAILED. I SEE THAT THIS IS A RECALL ON THE 2010 AND NEWER EDGE, WHICH USES THE SAME PART. I FEEL THAT THIS SHOULD ALSO BE A RECALL IN THE EARLIER MODELS, AS IT IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. THE VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY IN THE SHOP AWAITING REPAIR, WHICH WILL COST ME IN EXCESS OF $500. I AM NOT PLEASED.

I WAS DRIVING 35 MPH WHEN I APPLIED THE BRAKES AS I NORMALLY DO THE CAR KEPT MOVING SO I HAD TO APPLY LOT OF PRESSURE TO THE BRAKE PEDAL TO STOP THE CAR. I HEARD A UNUSUAL NOISE. I HAD TWO DIAGNOSTIC DONE AND INFORMED THAT IT WAS THE BRAKE BOOSTER BUT WAS NOT COVER UNDER THE FACTORY RECALL BECAUSE IT'S A 2008 MODEL EDGE WHAT A RIPOFF! THE SAME MANUFACTURE DEFECTIVE ISSUE IN THE 2010 IS COVERED. GO FIGURE!. IF I HAD BEEN DRIVING FASTER I WOULD HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO STOP TO AVOID A ACCIDENT.

TAKATA RECALL - IN JULY 2016 I WAS MAILED A RECALL LETTER # 16S384 THAT MY PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG WAS DEFECTIVE. I WAS INFORMED THIS WOULD BE FIXED NO LATER THE THE END OF SEPT. 2018. THIS RECALL HAS NOT BEEN COMPLETED. MY LOCAL FORD DEALER CONTINUES TO TELL ME THERE NOTHING THEY CAN DO AS REPLACEMENT PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE. IS THERE ANY THING THAT NTSB CAN DO TO GET THIS COMPLETED?

NOTICED THE R/H BRAKE LIGHT WAS OUT. WENT TO CHANGE THE BULB AND FOUND THE SOCKET IS BURNED AND CHARD. I REMOVED THE L/H SIGNAL LIGHT AND FOUND THE EXACT SAME SITUATION. THIS IS A SERIOUS FIRE HAZARD AND A QUICK ON-LINE SEARCH FOUND MULTIPLE SIMILAR SITUATIONS. A COWORKER OF MINE WITH EXACT SAME VEHICLE HAD THE EXACT SAME THING HAPPEN.

MY SUV HAD ODOMETER ERROR. THE THE WRENCH.CAME ON AIR BAG.CAME ONE AND WOULD NOT.SHIFT LOST POWER PULLED.OVER TURNED.CAR OFF THEN BACK ON LIGHTS WENT OFF ON DASH BUT.IT.WAS MAKING.NOISE GOING.INTO.GEAR

TAKATA RECALL THE WARNING LETTER 12/17 SAID NOT TO LET ANYONE SIT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. I TOOK THIS VERY SERIOUSLY AND EVEN RENTED A CAR WHEN THE ENTIRE FAMILY TRAVELED TOGETHER TO AVOID PUTTING SOMEONE IN THAT SEAT. ON JUNE 20, 2018, MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING OUR EDGE. SHE WAS HIT BY SOMEONE WHO RAN THE RED LIGHT. THE DRIVER FRONT WHEEL AREA AND BUMPER AREA WERE TAKEN OFF. THE OIL PAN AND WHEEL CHASSIS WERE DAMAGED AS WELL. THE VEHICLE WAS CLAIMED A "TOTAL LOSS." NONE OF THE AIRBAGS WENT OFF. THE ACCIDENT OCCURRED ON 6/20/2018. I HAD REQUESTED A RENTAL CAR UNDER THE "RECALL NOTICE" ON 6/11/2018 FROM FORD AUTONATION. ON 6/11/2018 AUTONATION SAID THEY COULD ONLY PUT ME IN A FORD150. AS I AM TOO SHORT AND NOT ABLE TO SEE VERY WELL OVER THE STEERING WHEEL AS WELL AS IT HURTS MY HIP TO GET UP IN A TRUCK THAT HIGH. THEREFORE I REQUESTED A CAR SIMILAR TO THE EDGE. AFTER CALLS AND VISITING AUTONATION, THEY NEVER CALLED ME BACK AFTER THE ONE CONVERSATION ON 6/11. THEN I CALLED FORD ON 6/18/2018 WHO GAVE ME A CASE NUMBER AND SENT TO A DIFFERENT AUTO DEALERSHIP. THE RENTAL CAR IS JUST READY FOR PICKUP TODAY.

WELL THIS IS BEEN RECALLED. ON OTHER 2008 FORD. EDGE BUT I THINK MY 2008 FORD EDGE SHOULD BE IN THAT RECALL I RECENTLY BOUGHT MY EDGE FROM A USED DEALER ALL THE SAFETY ISSUES AND RECALLS MY FORD EDGE HAS MY HAS ALL OF THE ISSUES MY FORD EDGE WENT IN FOR TIRE ROTATION AND OIL CHANGE WHEN THEY RETURNED MY CAR I LEFT THE SHOP AND THEN REALIZED THE FRONT TIRE IS VIBRATING WHEN DRIVEN SLOWLY AND TURNS I CALLED FORD TO ASK IF MY CAR WAS ONE OF THE ONES ON THE RECALL LIST FOR BEARING RECALL AND THE SAID NO I KNOW THIS WAS NOT AN ISSUE TILL NOW AND IM AFRAID TO DRIVE MY CAR DUE TO THIS RECALL I FEEL MY CAR SHOULD BE INCLUDED ALSO OF COURSE THE TRANNY IS DEFINITELY NOT WORKING CORRECTLY WHEN ALSO DRIVING SLOWLY IT JERKS TERRIBLY IN TO ANOTHER GEAR. SERVAL TIMES I HAVE AVOIDED CAR ACCIDENTS BY HAVING TO BRAKE ABRUPTLY CAUSE THE CAR TO GET STUCK IN THAT GEAR AND ME HAVING TO SUDDENLY FORCING THE CAR TO PULL OVER TO SIDE OF BUSY 5 O CLCK TRAFFIC AND TURN OFF CAR AND RESTART IT TO ENGAGE THE GEARS TO THE NEXT ONE I HAVE BACKED INTO MY FENCE DO TO THIS SUDDEN JERKING WITHOUT WARNING AND HAVE DAMAGED MY BACK BUMPER DUE TO THIS ISSUE AND THAT MY CAR IS NOT BEEN RECALL DUE TO THESE ISSUES.

TAKATA RECALL- I GOT THE RECALL NOTICE JUST A FEW WEEKS AGO. I DO NOT WANT TO BE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE WITH MY WIFE OR CHILDREN ANYMORE UNTIL I KNOW IT IS FIXED. I HAVE CALLED FORD DEALERS AND THEY SAID IT WON'T BE FIXED FOR SOMETIME AND THERE ARE NO LOANER OR RENTAL CARS AVAILABLE. SO NOW I HAVE AN UNSAFE VEHICLE THAT MY WIFE OR KIDS COULD BE SERIOUSLY INJURED IN OR KILLED AND FORD WON'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. I AM ALSO PAYING ON THIS VEHICLE.

I AM LOSING MONEY AS I USE MY FORD EDGE FOR UBER DRIVING AND CAN NOT USE THE RENTAL FORD IS PAYING FOR TO DRIVE UBER. SO FAR FORD HAS PAID CLOSE TO $3000 FOR THE RENTAL AND MY CAR IS ONLY WORTH $4000. SEEMS THEY SHOULD JUST BUY MY CAR FROM ME THIS IS TAKING WAY TOO LONG AND I'M ABOUT TO GET EVICTED BECAUSE I CAN'T WORK MY EXTRA JOB

I WAS SOLD A CAR FROM A CAR DEALERSHIP IN 2016 THAT HAD AN AIRBAG RECALL. MY TRUCK WAS PURCHASED IN 2016 AND THE TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL HAS BEEN OUT SINCE AROUND 2014. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND HOW THIS COULD HAPPEN WITH PEOPLE DYING FROM THIS DEFECTED AIRBAG AND SEVERELY INJURED. I ALSO HAD A WRECK IN THIS VEHICLE IN 2017 AND I AM GRATEFUL THE AIRBAG DID NOT COME BECAUSE I AM A MOTHER OF TWO CHILDREN. I'VE SENT MY CAR TO FORD ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS FOR MAINTENANCE AND NO ONE TOLD ME ABOUT THE RECALL. IT WASN'T UNTIL JUNE 2018, I WAS INFORMED. THE LETTER STATED IT WAS THE SECOND NOTICE BUT IT WAS ACTUAL MY FIRST LETTER.I WAS OFFERED A RENTAL VEHICLE, THAT I AM CURRENTLY IN NOW. THEY ARE ASKING FOR ME TO RETURN THE VEHICLE BUT MY HUSBAND HAS IT IN ANOTHER STATE. HE IS CO-OWNER OF THE VEHICLE. HE DIDN'T WANT ME TO DRIVE IT AND NEITHER IS HE. IT IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE WITH MY SMALL CHILDREN. I AM ASKING FOR AN EXTENSION ON THE RENTAL OR SOME TYPE OF REIMBURSEMENT FOR MY SAFETY AND TROUBLES. IVE SPENT OVER 5,000 DOLLARS IN REPAIRS ON A CAR THAT HAD A AIRBAG RECALL WAY BEFORE IT WAS PURCHASED.

AIRBAGS HAVE STILL NOT BEEN FIXED FROM A 2016 RECALL. TWO YEARS IS HARDLY A TIMELY MANOR. THERE IS NO ETA AVAILABLE TO BOOT.
