    The brakes on the edge had an audible hissing sound when compressed both when the vehicle was in park and in motion. If the brakes were pressed multiple times in short order (i.e. In rush hour traffic) the response of the system would be inconsistent as it was sometimes "squishy" and other very hard. This seemed to affect the responsiveness of the system. Upon taking it to a mechanic, it was revealed that the brake…

Now it's like my brake pedal locks up, it slows it down but i have to push it again really hard to stop the car.. I read some trouble shooting on the brake system of the edge and from what i read it's possibly the booster. I know it's very dangerous.

    Brake booster has failed, and now engine won't idle properly and stalls due to vacuum leak from the bad brake booster. I had reported symptoms (hissing, occasional hard pedal, etc.) during service visits while my "bumper to bumper" warranty was still in effect, but was told it was "noise from the new brake pads" and it just needed the brake fluid topped off. Symptoms persisted, but then service bulletin 13n02 was…

    Brakes were making noise. Dealership charged me ~$1,500 to replace brake booster and parking brake control module. However, just found issuance 13n02, which extended warranty for same problem for other years of this make and model. Please extend the recall to include 2010 ford edge. The brakes should not fail like this in a 6 year old car with only 60k miles!
