I've had several breaking issues since buying the car earlier 2018. I wish i would have researched the brake issues with the 2011 edge i would have chose a different vehicle. It was very slick out and my husband slid through a stop light when the brakes failed. They were soft and spongy and went straight to the floor. We change the brake pads paid a mechanic to change the master cylinder not once but twice because…

Stalls and won't accelerate while going down the road. Just idles real rough. Can only coast to a stop. Can't steer. Wrench comes on the display. Everything i have read said it is probably the throttle body. Has less than 40,000 miles.

I took a left turn to get onto the interstate on 7/30/18 at 7:45 am. When i started to accelerate to merge onto interstate without warning my car stalled and i was not able to accelerate. I was able to pull over thankfully and turn my emergency lights on. My car started to "jump" and was basically stalling out. I turned the car off and then after 5 minutes i was able to turn the car back on and it ran fine. I…

Purchased my 2011 ford edge in june/july of 2014 for jc lewis ford in savannah, ga. Turns out there was an "extended warranty" in place because the brake booster's in this car have been failing. I'm not sure why they would have sold me a car without completing a repair or informing me of the possibility of malfunction. About a month ago, i was driving down the interstate at about 65 mph when i was cut off by another…

(on multiple occasions )my 2011 ford edge upon accleration the vehicle loses the abiltiy to acclerate - shudders and the check engine flashes or stays on. Supposedly could not find the "code" that caused it. I have had the vehicle into 2 different dealer ships - one replaced the transfer case, the other the catalytic converter and ignition coils- to the cost of over 600.00 on a used certified vehicle. Less than a…

While driving 40 mph on a busy road, the car slowed on its own and stopped. I was unable to steer this vehicle. I restarted it four times; it would go for about 100 feet and then slow down to a stop once again. I feel fortunate no one ran into me. I consider this a very dangerous situation. I had the car towed to a ford dealership (the one i purchased the vehicle from). They kept it for an entire week, seldom…

My husband and i were driving home (going approximately 40 mph) with our 2 year old and all of the sudden the car lost power. It did not die but wouldn't go over 5 mph. Thankfully, we were close to home and not on a busy highway. If we had been on a busy highway i do believe it would have cause an accident and that terrifies me since this is our primary family vehicle. I have read that ford extended the warranty for…
