CarComplaints.com Notes: Say what you will about the styling of the Ford Edge, but the bottom line is owners seem to love this vehicle. That is, of course, except in the case of it's dangerous, worrisome and unexplained issues with random engine stalling.
Our data suggests an early defect trend, as owners of the 2007-2008 models have started posting their accounts of what happens when you're driving down the road and the engine just stops. Some at high speed, some at low speed but always a random shutdown of the engine, electrical and power steering.
Time will tell if this becomes a widespread issue, but there's no drying the seriousness of the problem. With that in mind, we're flagging the Edge with our "Beware of the Clunker" rating until the situation improves.
This is very annoying. I wish that I would have done a lot more research before buying a 2007 ford edge. I have numerous recalls on this car in addition to the all of the rust. Before this car I owned a 2000 Chevrolet Cavalier that I never had any rust issues with. Both cars have been driven in the same exact conditions.
