2010 Ford Edge Brakes Problems

There is a noise coming from the interior of my car, near the brakes that makes a high pitched noise and is causing the brake to feel a bit hard when pressed. It is believed that the brake booster has malfunctioned. There is a customer satisfaction program listed as 13N02 in regard to the extended warranty coverage for brake boosters. Is my vehicle eligible to be covered on this warranty?

My brake power booster needs replacing urgently. There is currently a recall for 2010 Ford Edge (2010-2014 Edge & MKX Vehicles specifically). My Edge however is not included. I do not understand why.

Brake booster failed. This is an known problem with year and model. Ford says recall doesn't apply to vin.

Brake Booster is faulty. I was told this is a known problem for the Ford Edge. A faulty brake booster is dangerous if not fixed asap. The cost to fix is 900 dollars. Since this is a known issue with brake booster it really should be a recall item. IMO

I WAS DRIVING MY 2010 FORD EGDE, WHEN I NOTICED THAT IT WAS TAKING LONGER TO STOP THE VEHICLE. ALSO, WHEN I WAS APPLYING THE BRAKES, THERE WAS AN AIR SOUND. IT WAS LIKE IT WAS HISSING. I KNEW SOMEHTING WAS WRONG. I THOUGHT IT WAS BECAUSE I JUST HAD THE FRONT BRAKES REPLACED AND THAT THE MECHANIC MAY HAVE FORGOTTEN TO BLEED THE LINES OR THAT THE VEHICLE WAS LOW ON BRAKE FLUID. I WENT BACK TO THE MECHAINC AND THEY CHECKED IT OUT AGAIN. THEY FIGURED OUT THAT IT WAS THE BRAKE BOOSTER THAT WAS FAULTY AND THAT THE PART WAS INEXPENSIVE BUT THE LABOR WAS HIGH BECUASE OF THE AMOUNT OF TIME IT TAKES TO FIX IT. I WENT ONLINE TO SEE IF THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THE BRAKE BOOSTER AND THERE WAS FOR CERTAIN 2010 FORD EDGES. WHEN I TYPED IN MY VIN, THE RECALL DID NOT COME UP. I CALLED FORD DIRECT TO SEE IF MY VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED IN THE RECALL AND THEY SAID THAT MY VIN WAS NOT. NOW MIND YOU, THE VEHICLE IS 14 YEARS OLD, BUT IT ONLY HAD 107989 MILES ON IT. SO NEEDLESS TO SAY, I HAD TO PAY OUT OF POCKET TO GET IT FIXED. IT COST 1255.26. THAT INCLUDED THE STOP LIGHT SWITCH THAT HAS TO BE REPLACED WHEN REPLACING THE BRAKE BOOSTER. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY ALL OF THE 2010 FORD EDGES WEREN'T RECALLED BECAUSE IT SEEMS THAT JUST ABOUT EVERY ONE THAT OWNS ONE WILL HAVE TO REPLACE THIS.

Brake booster leak. Very dangerous and expensive to fix!!!!

BRAKE FAIL'S DUE TO LEAK IN BRAKE BOOSTER, BRAKES STILL WORK BUT EXTREME PRESSURE ON PEDAL REQUIRED TO STOP CAR AND EXTRA TIME AND DISTANCE REQUIRED TO STOP OR SLOW CAR. CAR GARAGED ENTIRE LIFE AND ONLY JUST TURNED 100K ON ODOMETER. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL IN THE INTEREST OF SAFETY AS MANY PEOPLE HAVE REPORTED THIS AND NO ACTION ON FORD'S PART TO CORRECT THIS DANGEROUS SITUATION. THIS HAS BEEN TALKED ABOUT MANY TIMES ON INTERNET.

Brakes not working right, feel spongy. Not sure if I would stop at stop signs or coming up behind other vehicles. Also heard a hissing sound when stepping on brakes. Took to Brakes Plus center and they determined it was the power brake booster and master cylinder and that the car should not be driven due to the severity of the problem. We called a Ford Dealership and validated my vin was not part of a recall and that the car had never had this issue fixed previously. The Brakes Plus employee found there was a recall for this exact issue, but as stated before, the vin was not part of this recall. I had to have the brakes fixed immediately to prevent harm to others or myself. I called a Ford Dealership to get an appointment, left a message, but still have not heard back from them so I had it fixed at Brakes Plus. The car never displayed any warning that I am aware of. Due to this being a known severe issue, I believe Ford should cover this issue regardless of the year, model or mileage of car. It seems to be a part that was used in many Ford vehicles and should have been a recall for any vehicle.

Component: Brake Booster The brakes became incredibly difficult to press making it very difficult to stop. This was extremely dangerous. Dealer said it was the brake booster which they replaced for over $1,000. There were no warning lamps or messages.

Faulty Brake Booster / Ruptured Diaphram causing brake failure ! Repair cost was $1200 ($879 for 5 hrs work performed & $324 for a new brake booster) Brakes went out unexpectedly on the Highway ! VERY DANGEROUS & A VERY COSTLY REPAIR

Brakes making air noise when pressed on

Car started having issues when trying to brake it was as if the pedal was harder to push and the car was slowing but hard to stop. Also a hissing noise from the brake booster area above where feet are on driverside as well as a high litch squeal once pressed down to a certain point. Its only been getting worse even after changing brakes and rotors. The vehicle just doesnt stop when pressures applied so i have to push pedal hard and while the car doesnt stop the brake sometimes seems to kick in and jerk to a stop but u have to apply alot of pressure to pedal and can hear a hissing noise the whole time using the breaks
