Mechanic told me i needed new rear brake pads and rotors. After replacing i am still having same problems with nearly crashing into the back of another vehicle. Now i am told i need to replace power brake booster.

The brakes growl and grind no matter what. I keep being told by ford dealers that this is just the sound of the edge! I have never heard brakes like these that do not have a problem but ford fails to admit there is a problem. It takes forever to get the car to stop. I looked it up online and alot of people are complaining of the same thing even on the newer year models. *kb

My 2007 ford edge began to have erratic braking. The pedal would go almost to the floor and braking was very poor during those times. At other times the pedal became almost rock hard and could hardly be pressed and little or no braking occurred. This happened on the highway during exiting the freeway and i had to let off and pump the brake pedal and was able to stop. Very disconcerting and the problem was getting…

The first time was in feb. 2010 the switch under the brake pedal went out, left me stranded. Now the brake booster is going bad. No warning, the brakes get rock hard and then go to the floor with a horrible whistling noise. You may or may not stop. Don't do any sudden stops you will crash. I am very unhappy that ford don't see this as a problem that needs to be recalled. Love the car looks and rides, but wont buy…

I had them checked several times and was told they were fine. I finally had them replaced but they still grind at times. I've learned to deal with this problem. I've also experienced a loud roaring noise. I'm not sure what this…

I have a 2007 ford edge with persisting pulsating brake problem. The brakes make a gringing noise. I have brought to the ford dealership about 5 times for the same problems and they state that the sound and grind is "normal" and nothing to worry about. I almost got into an accident the first time as the car delays, kicks back, then usually the abs light comes on. This occurs usually when making turns or going up a…

We own a 2007 edge sel and the driver's side brake light constantly burns out. The bulb has been replaced countless times and the socket is melted. I just wanted to share this with everyone. A clicking noise has also developed on the driver's side front wheel recently, however we haven't seen anything related to other complaints about this. The vehicle currently has very low miles (24,000) and this seems odd. I hope…
