2008 Ford Edge Complaint Log

TAKATA RECALL. WHY IS FORD TAKING SOO LONG TO FIX THE ISSUE? I RECEIVED THE RECALL NOTICE JAN 2017 AND NOW THE SAME NOTICE KEEPS POPING UP, "YOUR VEHICLE IS AFFECTED BY A TAKATA AIRBAGS RECALL. PARTS ARE NOT YET AVAILABLE, BUT YOUR VEHICLE IS SAFE TO DRIVE IN THE MEANTIME." THE ISSUE I HAVE IS WE MOVED BACK FROM MICHIGAN TO ONTARIO CANADA IN JULY OF 2017 AND WE CANNOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE UNTIL THE RECALL IS COMPLETED AND FIXXED. WE HAVE CALLED FORD A COUPLE TIMES AND THEY SAID THEY WOULD LOOK INTO MOVING OUR VICHILE TO THE TOP OF THE LIST BUT THEY HAVE NOT.

FOUND THE VEHICLE WITH A DEAD BATTERY THIS MORNING. BATTERY IS ONLY 1.5 MONTHS OLD. JUMP STARTED THE VEHICLE AND THEN FOUND THAT WHILE RUNNING AND DOORS CLOSED, THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT WAS ON AND ALL DOME LIGHTS. CHECKED ALL DOORS MULTIPLE TIMES, STILL WOULD NOT SHUT OFF. TRIED TO LOCK DOORS WHILE ENGINE RUNNING AND SINCE THE CAR BELIEVED A DOOR WAS OPENED IT IMMEDIATELY UNLOCKED ALL THE DOORS. NOT LOOKING FORWARD TO TRAVELING WITH A RISK OF A DEAD BATTERY AGAIN OR ON THE HIGHWAY WITH NO ABILITY TO LOCK THE DOORS. SEEMS FORD HAS EXACT SAME ISSUES WITH OTHER MODELS. THEY NEED TO RECALL THE 08S AS WELL.

LEFT REAR TAIL LIGHT BURNED OUT CHECK BULB COME TO FIND OUT THE SOCKET IS BURNED BROWN AND THE SOCKET VERY CRISP FALLING APART DUE TO OVER HEATED SOCKET THIS SHOULD BE REPLACED BY FORD. THIS MAY CAUSE A FIRE HAZARD, TAKE YOUR VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND HAVE THIS CHECKED BEFORE YOU HAVE A FIRE!!! I FOUND THIS WHEN I CHECKED TO SEE IF THE TURN SIGNAL/BRAKE LIGHT WERE WORKING.

WITHOUT ANY WARNING - NO HIGH TEMP LIGHT OR ANY ENGINE LIGHT - THE WATER PUMP FAILED CAUSING SEVERE DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE BECAUSE IT CAUSED THE TIMING CHAIN TO GO SLACK AND ALLOWING COOLANT TO GET INTO THE ENGINE. THIS SEEMS TO BE A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THIS ENGINE. I RAN DIAGNOSIS THE SAME MORNING WITH PERFECT RESULTS BEFORE FAILURE. I WAS TURNING ONTO MY STREET WHEN VEHICLE LOST POWER AND WOULD NOT START AGAIN.

MY 2008 FORD EDGE (SINCE I BROUGHT IT) HAS BEEN HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. WHEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE, ALL OF THE LIGHTS ON THE PANEL WILL LIGHT UP( WRENCH LIGHT, AIRBAG LIGHT, TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT...ETC) THE ODOMETER WILL GO OFF AND HAVE ONLY DASHES, THE CAR WILL THEN HAVE A LOSS OF ACCELERATION. THE CAR FEELS LIKE IT IS TRYING REALLY HARD TO STAY IN GEAR OR CHANGE GEARS.THIS WILL HAPPEN ON THE HIGHWAY GOING 60MPH AS WELL AS LOCAL ROADS AT LOWER SPEEDS. I WILL HAVE TO PUT MY HAZARDS ON AND PULL OVER ON THE SIDE. WE FIGURED OUT THAT IF YOU DISCONNECT THE CABLES ON THE BATTERY FOR A FEW MINUTES THEN RECONNECT THE CAR WILL THEN RUN AGAIN OK. THIS IS A SERIOUS HAZARD. I HAVE ALMOST BEEN HIT SEVERAL TIMES ON THE HIGHWAY DUE TO THIS ISSUE AND HAVE BEEN HIT FROM BEHIND GETTING ON THE HIGHWAY ALREADY. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO FORD SEVERAL TIMES ONLY TO BE TOLD THAT THERE IS "NO CODE READING" SO THEY CAN NOT DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS TO FIND OUT IF OTHER FORD EDGES HAVE THE SAME ISSUE AND I CAME ACROSS A SLEW OF OTHER FORD EDGE OWNERS WITH THE SAME ISSUE. I HAVE CONTACTED FORD SEVERAL TIMES TO BE TOLD THAT THERE ARE NO RECALLS ON THIS. *TR

RECALL: I HAVE TRIED SEVERAL TIMES THE LAST FEW YEARS TO GET THE AIRBAGS IN MY CAR REPLACED. FORD DEALER CHUCK SPAETH FORD INC. NEW ULM, MINNESOTA (507) 794-3621 TELLS ME THEY HAVE NOT BEEN GIVEN THE OKAY TO MAKE REPAIRS. NOTHING HAS HAPPENED YET WITH THE AIRBAGS I WANT TO GET THEM REPLACED BEFORE IT DOES.

MY BRAKES MAKE A HISSING NOISE WHEN I PRESS DOWN.. I HAVE TO PRESS ALL THE WAY DOWN TO GET IT TO STOP. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS.ALSO, MY BACK TAIL LITE HAS HAD TO BE REPLACED 2 TIMES BECAUSE THE SOCKET GOT HOT. ALSO, MY CAR JUMPS SOMETIMES WHEN PRESSING ON THE GAS(TRANSMISSION ISSUE?) I HAVE ALSO HAD THE GAS TANK REPLACED(DUE TO A RECALL)

TAIL LIGHT SOCKETS MELTING CAUSING THE BULBS TO BLOW AND NOT WORK. HAVE HAD TO CHANGE BOTH SIDES THREE TIMES NOW. ALSO THE TAKATA AIRBAG HAS STILL NOT BEEN REPLACED. THE DEALERSHIP STATED THEY STILL DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS TO FIX IT. I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT BOTH THESE THINGS.

TIRE WEAR

NO WARNING INDICATOR GIVEN. THE BREAKS DECIDE TO STOP WORKING. HISSING SOUND WHEN BREAK IS APPLIED. I HAD TO MASH ON THE PEDDLE TO STOP. LUCKILY I WAS TRAVELING AT A SLOW SPEED. I HAVE 2 CHILDREN AGES 1 AND 2 IN THE CAR WITH ME. THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE HAZARD AND NEEDS TO BE CORRECTED BY FORD.

MY VEHICLE'S TRANSMISSION ACTS LIKES IT'S SLIPPING OR IN NEUTRAL WHEN IT'S NOT. JERKS WHEN IT SHIFTS GEARS. LOSES POWER WHEN I TRY TO ACCELERATE. I DID SOME RESEARCH THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE TRANSMISSIONS IN THE FORD EDGE'S. I STARTED HAVING ISSUES SEVERAL WEEKS AGO BACK IN OCTOBER 2016. WHY SHOULD ALL THE OWNERS OF THESE DEFECTIVE TRANSMISSION HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS TO BE FIXED. THAT'S NOT RIGHT! WE GAVE FORD OUR HARD EARNED MONEY JUST TO GET A DEFECTIVE VEHICLE. TALKED TO FORD TODAY AND THEY DON'T CARE. NOT GOING TO DO ANYTHING THEY STATED. TODAY I WAS AT A 4 WAY STOP IN A SCHOOL ZONE AND WHEN I WANTED TO TAKE OFF IT ACTED LIKE IT WAS IN NEUTRAL. I GOT TO WHERE I COULD PULL OVER AND SAT THERE A FEW MINUTES AND WAS ABLE TO DRIVE IT THE OTHER MILE HOME. IT CLUNKS WHEN CHANGING GEARS AND JERKS. IT IS A INTERMITTENT PROBLEM AS IT DOESN'T HAPPEN EVERYDAY.

THE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER WOULD NO LONGER BUILD PARTS FOR THE 2008 FORD EDGE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 86,000.

STOPPED AT A LIGHT WOULD NOT PULL FORWARD AFTERWARDS LOUD CLUNKING NOISE, AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON, SERVICE LIGHT CAME ON, ODOMETER WENT TO ZERO, CAR WOULD JERK WHILE IN GEAR BUT WOULDN'T MOVE FORWARD OR REVERSE. I'VE DONE SOME RESEARCH ON THIS PROBLEM, HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH 2007 AND 2008 EDGE. WITH MOST BEING TRANSMISSION SENSOR FAILURE. FORD KNOWS OF THIS PROBLEM WON'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT.

GARY SMITH FORD, FT. WALTON BEACH, FL I GOT A RECALL ON MY FORD EDGE, TOOK MY CAR IN AND ASKED FOR AN APT SEVERAL MONTHS AGO. STATED THEY COULD NOT MAKE AN APT. I RECEIVED A TAKATA AIRBAG INFLATORS NOTICES CLASS ACTION 17-11375 (BLS), THE AIRBAGS HAVE NEVER BEEN FIXED, WORRIED IF I AM EVER IN AN ACCIDENT WHAT MIGHT HAPPEN. I CALLED THEM 1-888-470-3583, ALSO 1-888-814-0714. THE AIR BAGS NEED TO BE FIXED BECAUSE OF RECALL, SO FAR NOT DONE. CAN'T FIND DOC FOR RECALL BUT I TOOK IT IN MONTHS AGO, NO CALL FROM THEM OR APT SET UP.

WHILE DRIVING MY 2008 FORD EDGE, THE "WRENCH" LIGHT COMES ON AND MY CAR LOSES ALL POWER. WHEN I STEP ON THE GAS IT IS LIKE I AM IN NEUTRAL MY CAR WILL NOT DRIVE. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY IN TRAFFIC. I AM SO SCARED I AM GOING TO BE REAR-ENDED. I DID A LOT OF RESEARCH AND FOUND MANY OTHERS HAVE THE SAME ISSUE. APPARENTLY IT IS THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY. *TR

2008 FORD EDGE TRANSMISSION ISSUES. THE TRANSMISSION DOES NOT SHIFT PROPERLY AND STICKS IN GEAR AND SHIFTS VERY ERRATICALLY. IT HAPPENS AT LEAST ONCE A DAY OR MORE DEPENDING ON HOW OFTEN IT IS DRIVEN. THE CAR HAS BECOME UNRESPONSIVE AT DIFFERENT TIMES TO THE THE GAS PEDAL AND HAS ACTUALLY SHUT OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD, WE WERE ABLE TO COAST BARELY TO SAFETY. FROM READING FORD FORUMS IT IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM, AND FORD KNOWS ABOUT IT BUT WILL DO NOTHING TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. WE DO NOT FEEL SAFE MANY TIMES DRIVING THE CAR NOT KNOWING WHAT THE TRANSMISSION WILL OR WON'T DO NEXT,. *TR

TAKATA RECALL. FORD ISSUED THE RECALL TO REPLACE THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG ON JUNE 1, 2016, AND YET NEARLY FIVE MONTHS LATER STILL HAS NOT COME UP WITH A SOLUTION. PLEASE HELP!! I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE MY CAR WITH A PASSENGER IN THE FRONT SEAT.

I PURCHASED THIS CAR WITHIN THE PAST MONTH FROM A USED CAR DEALERSHIP WITH 78,000 MILES ON IT. THIS PAST WEEKEND, I WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING LOT AND THE ENGINE SHUT OFF WHILE TRYING TO PARK MY CAR. LUCKILY THERE WASN'T ANY TRAFFIC BEHIND ME BUT IF THIS WOULD HAVE HAPPENED WHILE CARS WERE BEHIND ME, I PROBABLY WOULD HAVE GOTTEN INTO A SEVERE ACCIDENT.

DRIVING AT I275 TO ST PETERSBURG, AT 60MPH THE CAR MADE A LOUD NOISE FROM THE ENGINE AND REDUCED GEARS ABRUPTLY, IT FELT LIKE A HARD BRAKING FROM THE ENGINE, VERY HARD. THE RPM WENT SKYROCKET, THE CAR LOST POWER AND WOULDN'T GO OVER 45MPH OR IT WOULD DO THE SAME AGAIN. IT LOOKED LIKE IT WAS ON A VERY LOW GEAR, AS IT WAS AT 40MPH DOING ALMOST 4000RPM... I STOPPED AT A GAS STATION, TURNED IT OF AND LET IT SIT FOR ABOUT 20 MINUTES. WHEN I TRIED TO GO BACK ROME, AFTER 2 MILES IT DID THE SAME, IT LOST POWER. I DROVE BACK TO THE GAS STATION AND HAD IT TOWED HOME.

65,000 MILES ON CAR. WHEN I PRESS ON BRAKE PEDAL, THERE IS A WHISTLE SOUND. TOOK CAR IN TO PRIVATE MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSTIC. HE TELLS ME IT IS A "VACUUM LEAK." WILL FORD COVER THIS?

NEEDED TO REPLACED BRAKE BOOSTER ON VEHICLE WITH 84,000 MILES. BRAKES HAD TO BE TROMPED ON IN ORDER TO STOP, VERY DANGEROUS. ALL ELSE WAS OK WITH THE BRAKES. ALL REPAIRS SHOPS SAID THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN UNDER WARRANTY FOR UNDER 100,000 MILES AND LESS THAN 10 YEARS OLD. COST TO REPAIR WAS OVER $650.00. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS DANGEROUS SITUATION.-ALSO, STILL WAITING FOR NOTIFICATION FOR AIRBAG RECALL.

TAKATA RECALL AND POSSIBLE FUEL LEAK RECALL. PURCHASED VEHICLE 6/6/2015 AND HAVE NEVER RECEIVED RECALL NOTICE LETTER, NOR WAS VEHICLE FIXED BY DEALER.

MY VEHICLE FORD EDGE MODEL 2008, LOST CONTROL AS WELL AS SPEED WHEN THE WRENCH LIGHT CAME TO THE DASHBOARD, IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE AIRBAG LIGHT LIT UP, I HAD LITTLE OR NO ENGINE POWER TO ENGAGE GEAR TO KEEP UP WITH TRAFFIC SPEED. MY SPEED DROPPED TO 40 MILES OR LESS PER HOUR. VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION BECAUSE AT THAT MOMENT THE ODOMETER LIGHTING ALSO WENT OFF. DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY AT NIGHT NO ONE DRIVES BELOW 40 MILES PER HOUR, MADE THE SITUATION PRETTY GRAVE AND DANGEROUS. THE PROBLEM COMES FROM THE POWER TRAIN FAULTY SENSORS NEAR THE TRANSMISSION NEED TO BE REPLACED COSTING OVER $800,00, AS FOR THE AIRBAG I HAVEN'T RECEIVED A INVOICE YET.

TAKATA RECALL. I FILED A REQUEST WITH BILL CURRIE FORD FOR REPLACEMENT OF MY TAKATA AIRBAGS OVER A YEAR AGO. THEY STILL ARE SAYING THEY DO NOT HAVE PARTS IN STOCK FOR THE PASSENGER SIDE. THEY SOLD ME THIS VEHICLE IN 2014 KNOWING THAT THIS WAS A PROBLEM AND DID NOT REVEAL THE PROBLEM AT THE TIME. FOR OVER A YEAR THEY HAVE FAILED TO RESPOND TO REPLACING MY AIRBAGS EVEN THOUGH I HAVE REQUESTED IT 3 TIMES. THEY ARE FINALLY REPLACING THE DRIVER'S SIDE AIRBAG NEXT WEEK BUT ARE SAYING THEY STILL DO NOT HAVE PARTS FOR THE PASSENGER SIDE.

TAKATA RECALL I HAVE RECEIVED SEVERAL LETTERS ABOUT THE TAKATA RECALL FROM FORD AND FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF MOTOR VEHICLES. UNFORTUNATELY, FORD DOES NOT HAVE MY AIRBAG AVAILABLE. THEREFORE, I AM AT RISK WHEN I DRIVE THE VEHICLE. I NEED TO RECEIVE ASSISTANCE WITH FORD HAVING THE AIRBAG AVAILABLE SO I AND/OR PASSENGERS IN MY VEHICLE ARE NOT AT RISK OF INJURY OR DEATH IN CASE THE AIRBAG DEPLOYS..
