This has now happened to me twice with both my small children in the car while on the highway, at highway speeds. T he speedometer went to 0, the maintenance wrench display lit up, along with the error message "tire pressure monitor fault" (or something to that effect) and I was unable after stopping at a stop light to accelerate almost causing the person behind me to rear end me. Once getting to my home when putting the car into park it makes a loud clunking noise then proceeds to jerk the entire vehicle. After letting the car sit for an hour I tried to turn it one once again and test driving a few feet forward, it only moved at a slow pace when gas pedal applied.

The brake booster failed making the vehicle very slow to respond to stopping. Had the need for a emergency stop occurred there would have been an accident. I am told by the mechanic that repaired the vehicle that this part rarely fails and not in a vehicle with so few miles relative to the part.

I have a 2008 Ford Edge sel. When turning on my left blinker it was blinking rapidly which I knew indicated a light was out. I found that it was my driver side rear blinker/tail light. I went to the store and purchased the bulb. When I got home to replace it I found that I could not remove the bulb as the socket has melted. I searched online and found that this is common for this type of vehicle.

After nearly 6 years I thought I would change the brakes.wife was hearing a grinding noise. I thought we were we'll overdo on them anyways. When I went to change them I was inspecting them and found the passenger side pads were barely worn they looked almost new. The driver side outer pad looked the same practically new the inner pad on the drivers side was worn down to about 1/16 to the end of the pad I feel this warrants some kind of action on behalf of Ford thanks.

The rear tail light sockets for the tail/brake light lamps are badly burned on both sides. We noticed the problem when we changed the tail light housing due to water vapor build up. Only the right side had the visible water vapor. Both sides had the burned lamp sockets. The car was purchased used.

Brakes suddenly failed requiring excessive force to bring vehicle to a stop. This was very, very, scary and I drove directly to the Ford dealer where we had purchased the car. The diagnosis was a failed brake booster costing almost $700 to replace. Apparently this is a recurring problem in this model. The car should be recalled and the part replaced as this is a very dangerous issue.

Light turned yellow & brakes were applied slightly harder than usual resulting in a high pitched whistle while stopping. In the next 20 miles the brakes began to fail. The problem was identified as a failed brake booster. Replacement cost $511.19 at ramona tire in mission viejo, ca. Within a few days the exact same problem occurred to my friend's 2008 Ford Edge.

Brakes started to make a scraping sound. When brakes were applied, the vehicle would not stop without slamming on the brakes throwing passengers forward. It appeared that the brakes were not depressing properly and were pumped up. We happened to have a schedule annual inspection with our mechanic and he informed us that the brake booster appeared to be the issue. We took it to the Ford dealership and they confirmed the brake booster needed replacement. After researching this, I noticed that this was an issue with the 2007 Ford Edge. Shouldn't there be a recall? I have owned Ford vehicles for the past 25 years and have never even heard of a brake booster issue until now. This could be very dangerous and is quite expense to replace ($691).

Rear calipers does not retract brake pads and there is a constant howling noise. Caused the wheel and rotor to become over heated and braking was diminished. Also brake pads fit into caliper to tight and will not retract when brake pedal is released causing brake rotors and pads to become over heated and cause components to be glazed over and diminishing braking distance. This is an ongoing problem which Ford is aware of but there has been no recall or remedy to fix it.

The contact owns a 2008 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while driving 2 mph, she applied the brakes and the brake pedal abnormally traveled to the floor board without warning. In addition, the contact heard a whistling noise as the failure occurred. The contact shifted into park and was able to stop the vehicle.

The vehicle was not repaired. The failure and current mileage was 52,000.
