Sudden and total loss of power while driving vehicle in traffic. There was warning, no engine light and there are no codes to diagnose. This is a life-threatening hazard and should be addressed and not dismissed by Ford. Some say it could be several solutions to the problem but the main solution has been the throttle position switch and throttle body assembly. This is a manufacturing issue and should be consider a recall fix with no cost to the owner.

At speeds below 5 mph as well as speed 35-45 mph the transmission will run away race beyond foot pedal control. Immediate brake pressure is necessary to avoid accident and also shifting to neutral to regain control. Occurs with no warning. Requires emergency reaction time.!!! has happened numerous times since Dec.2020 thru yesterday Feb.22,2021.

My Edge you have to put it in park after you start driving it to get it to go. Then it will drive ok for awhile then you have to do it again. I'm afraid that I'm going to get rear ended and get hurt. Im driving in town when this happened

I own a Ford Edge 2009 car had been over heating for little while. Air condition would work when driving when I come to a stop it would over heat. I would need to turn on the heat to allow it to cool back down. Had to replace the double fan assembly cost right at $600

2009 Ford Edge -- major issue-- Ford needs to cover costs--- I was driving my 2009 Ford Edge sel approx. 4 miles. Once I rolled to a stop at a traffic light the car began to idle and then stalled. No warning lights.. I started the engine and pressed the gas (no acceleration). The engine ran at around 1-2K RPM. I pressed the gas again, no acceleration. I shut off the car called aaa for a tow. I started the car once more to check the gauges, no service lights. When I checked the other indicators it stated, car temp -- ok, oil pressure - ok, etc... all ok.. no warning lights, no issues. The car was in about 1.5 months ago for oil, 3-4 months for service. About 8-9 months ago, moroone Ford of margate (under warranty) fixed an electrical issue (where no lights were showing) they claimed it was a Ford issue and they replaced it (no cost). Well now this happened and moroone Ford of margate said, "blown engine, $7,700 to replace + $400 for cooling fan." They said the cooling fan broke (no warning) and the engine blew. No warning, lights, etc... when I looked under the hood waiting for aaa (no smoke, no smell... yet a blown engine (full replacement)... I will fight this because I believe this is an electrical issue that they tried to fix prior and this happened again. I also don't believe the engine was destroyed. Hopefully the government and Ford will research and cover the repairs / replacement. No warning lights oil temp -- ok oil pressure -- ok car idled and stalled... approx. Miles 82,000.
