When you apply your brake, you don't know if the car will stop or not and suddenly the brakes will stop hard and throw the passengers against seat belt. It is almost a violent stop. Took to dealer and they said it is a common problem on 2013 ford edges. Brake booster is bad. Ford will fix some, but not all. Depends on your vin#. No one can tell me why my vin# eliminates me when it is covered on most others. Recalled…

The brake pedal is very hard to push, the brakes hardly work, while pushing on the hard pedal the pedal will go part of the way down and then suddenly get soft and suddenly engage brakes jerking the driver and passengers forward.

When you push the brake pedal, you think you aren't going to stop, then it suddenly catches and throws on the brake, making a sudden stop. I went to ford dealer and they say it's not covered by ford even though many 2013 edges are having the problem and are covered for brake booster failure. No reason for why some are covered and ours isn't. Dealer wants $450, but doesn't have brake booster parts. I am afraid to…

Power brake booster failed. I was moving and tried to stop and had a difficult time stopping. Break peddle could not be pushed. Ford is aware of the issue (see ford service bulletin 13n02). Although my vehicle is the same it does not fit under the service bulletin. This is a very dangerous cituation. It almost made me pull into on coming traffic. I was stopping at a stop sign before pulling on to a state road where…

Brake booster. Brakes began to make a hissing sound when pressed, and became very difficult to push down when needing to brake. I took my vehicle to the ford dealership and was told the brake booster was faulty and there was a hole in the diaphragm. Cost to me would be $1000 and was told not covered under warranty. After researching this issue, there was a ford recall issued for this problem on 2010-2013 ford edges,…

The brake booster failed inspection for total parts and labor cost of $672. Some 2013 ford edges were recalled for this but not mine. I called ford motor company to inquire but once i stated my question, representative hung up. I tried calling back but no one picked up. I want to know why my specific edge was not included when it obviously should have been.

When applying the brakes, the pedal feels spongey and the car feels as if it is not going to stop. In order to make it stop, you have to apply more pressure on the brakes than normal. I first noticed it while i was backing out of a parking space, but it also occurs any time you have to come to a complete stop. We took it in to a repair shop and was told that the power boost was bad and that this is a known issue…

My 2013 ford edge starting making a high pitch whistling/squeaking noise when i pushing down on my brake pedal while the car was parked. I noticed it started getting harder to push the break pedal down while driving and took it to a mechanic to check the brakes. They told me it was the power break booster having the problem, and that there had actually been a recall on this by ford (for my make/model/year) and that…

Brakes difficult to operate, heard hissing sound. Ford dealer said it was bad brake power booster. Ford has extended warranty for same year and model but not if built after march 2013. I contacted ford but they will not cover the cost, it appears many others have same issue, its not logical they would not cover replacement for same year model and same part failure. With extended warranty they give to some it says 10…

Without warning brake peddle went straight to floor when depressed to slow down. Car had to be bumped along curb to slow to a stop. Called tow truck took to ford dealership. Service tech claimed the problem was in a module controlled by the pcm. This needed to be reprogramed? This should never happen. I have no guarantee it wont happen again.

The brake booster has failed on my vehicle. I contacted ford. They advised me they are aware of the problem on this make and model, but my vehicle isn't covered.
