Brakes felt spongy and had a hissing noise, and with pumping or quick and firm pressing of the pedal, the brake pedal would become rock hard and not easily stop the vehicle. Ford has already issued an extended warranty on this exact issue for 2010-2013 under bulletin 13n02 (10 year 150k miles) so they know there is a problem. 2007-2009s have the same problem yet have been ignored.

2007 ford edge has ptu leak, the transmission is not shifting properly, the brake light bulbs are constantly blowing and melting in the socket. The brakes sound like they are grinding metal and the cd player decided to quit working too. I have read online of others having all of these exact same problems. The ptu and transmission problems should not be something that the owner should have to pay to have corrected…

I first began to notice this issue when my 2007 ford edge, with 85,000 miles at the time, created a hissing noise from behind the steering column area when the brake pedal was pressed. Ever since owning this vehicle the brake pedal felt extremely spongy but i always assumed it was the design of the vehicle. After the pedal had become even softer and the car became harder to stop along with louder hissing, i realized…

I kept hearing a strange noise when i applied my brakes. When i took the vehicle in their diagnosis was that a pin was breaking on the front caliper on the front right tire. They replaced the pin, right front wheel bearing assembly, and hub. They replaced the front brake pads and inspected the brake system. Hub assembly was "wobbling" causing the pins to break and caused my brake pads to ruin. *tr
