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.

Really pissed how much we are paying for this car and we have so many issues with this vehicle! Can't even use the sunroof and that was the main selling point of the car! Everything is f*cked up on this thing and it has low miles!

  • Automatic transmission

Weather stripping around windows melting, rubber on spoiler came off, stripping around both sides of panoramic roof all peeling off, rubber on panoramic roof all loose. Complained to customer service at Ford they started they haven't had any other complaints. That is hard to believe that I am the only one with a defective trim issue. Took it to Ford dealer to get pricing it would cost over $3000. To get it fixed. As much as this car cost it should have had gold trim. I have been a Ford customer all my life, but if this is how we are treated, I will buy something else. I feel Ford should be responsible for fixing this problem. It is a DEFECT!!!!
