My vehicle has the exact same problem with extended warranty for ford bulletin 13n02 and ford wont cover cost of repair. Bulletin states year 2013 and vehicles built at oakville plant in canada. I feel my safety repair should be covered, yet i had to pay $480 out of pocket. Ford has not been able to tell me why it not being covered

Brake booster failure. 2013 ford edge sport. I hear a hissing coming from my brake pedal when it is depressed. Also the pedal is either hard to depress and/or will fade to the floor. When i noticed the failure i was traveling in city traffic. I nearly rear ended a vehicle, trying to get my vehicle to stop. I saw there was a customer service program # 13n02 for 2010-2013 ford edge's. For some reason mine was not…

The power brake booster has failed at 69000 miles. This failure is consistent with failures ford has fixed on the ford edge manufactured prior to march 28, 2013. My car was manufactured in may of 2013. I do not feel that ford resolved the issue with the brake booster failure. This creates a dangerous driving condition with the large amount of pressure required to stop the car. In several cases, i was unable to stop…

Backed out of driveway and had to pump/floor brakes to get stopped! On main street in front of a school! New brakes had been put on a couple months prior. Had them checked by mechanic that put them on.

First my engine light was flashing when accelerating onto freeway, then eventually stayed solid. Code came back as air sensors. I replaced o sensors up and down lean bank 2s, and the brake booster went out on me completely, followed by car stalling everytime brake was applied for longer then 15 seconds on and off . Long story short paid 2,000 on repairs. Then all the sudden engine lights back on followed by low tone…

While putting on the brakes and turning, the brake pedal went all the way down and stayed like this for quite some time. It still brakes but it pulls to the right when done so. It is very annoying, but it is a safety hazard. I heard there was a recall on this action but when i took it to the dealer they said it was not covered. This is definitely a factory defect and i would hate to get in a court action with ford…

When coming to a stop light my breaks became spongy and hissing when pressed and is hard to push down as if i had no breaks at all and air was coming out of them. I was not prepared for this. I had my kids in the car but luckily i was going the speed limit and was away from any other cars. My kids were in the car with me so it added a little anxiety for me. This happens now all the time. I called the ford dealership…

The brakes were in the beginning very hard to press down and then after pushing they went all the way to the floor with a hissing sound. It was very difficult and scary to drive as i didn't know if they were giving out. After doing research online it turns out this is and was a problem ford knew about- the brake booster was bad. There was a recall for some vehicles, but obviously not all of them, because mine did…

Began to experience power brake booster failure. Heard a hissing noise when brakes were applied. Found a 'extended warranty' for the power brake booster. My vehicle falls 2 months past the cut off. I feel that this is a major manufacturer defect that should include all vehicles.

Difficult to stop. Pressing on the brake pedal i hear a hissing noise like an air leak and a high pitched sound. After coming to a stop the vehicle still wants to move forward. Must press on the brake pedal real hard to get it to stop. Have come close to being in an accident and currently unable to drive the vehicle. Had mechanic check vehicle and they explained the brake booster is not working and should be…

Noted a hissing sound when depressing brake petal, then a sponge petal with little effect on braking and finally the loss of any brake booster or power brake effect while braking. Dealer said some vehicles had extended warranty for this problem, but others, like mine, magically did not!

While brakes were depressed, hissing occurred for about 7-10 days. Then, while traveling in stop and go traffic, the brake pedal became stiff, and could barely stop the vehicle. This happens on a daily basis now, including not being able to stop in a drive through, and passing the window.
