BREAK BOOSTER FAILED
ODI 11034217
Service Brakes
The problem started as just sounding like air pressure was releasing from the break peddle. Before i could get it into the ford dealership the breaks started locking up in the break peddle to where i couldn't stop safely and feel comfortable transporting my self or my 11 year old daughter. I also in the same two days was at a stop light and the break under my foot slowly pushed up at a red light 30 seconds or so,…

First applying full braking capacity to slow the vehicle effectively and efficiently. Second, the vehicle pulls to one side or the other in a random fashion. This…

The dealer indicated my vehicle was not part of the campaign even though it is a 2013 edge. I would like to see this service campaign extended as the there…

Premature failure and what my family considers a safety risk. Soft pedal results when pumping the brakes on just the…

Load hissing sound while pressing the brake pedal and feels spongy. While driving, especially when trying to come to a full stop, the pedal must be forcibly slammed to the floor or the vehicle will continue to travel. The dealer confirmed i have a faulty brake booster. Ford has already recalled the brake booster on 2013 edge models manufactured until march 2013. My vehicle was manufactured in july 2013.

I was slowly turning right into a gas station when my vehicle died. The steering froze and nothing worked. Thankfully i was able to coast into the gas station where i put the car in park, turned it off, and then back on. It started fine. If i had been on the highway, i would be dead!!!! This is incredibly dangerous!!!!

7/9/17 brake pedal on my 2013 ford edge went to the floor while making a sudden stop almost rear ending the vehicle in front of me. Brake pedal made a sound like a balloon deflating as it went to the floor. Even in park the brake pedal would travel to the floor making the sound of a deflating balloon. Took the car to the shop and was diagnosed as a brake booster failure costing me $630. Mileage is 46,000

Brake booster failed at 65,375 miles. Ford has issued an extended warranty on brake boosters, including 2013 models, however i was told my car was manufactured a couple of months after the manufacture dates of cars included in the warranty - so there was no warranty coverage for this $891.82 repair. The brake response on my car would intermittently become very stiff (hard to depress the brake pedal) and difficult to…

The brake booster failed at around 40,000 miles. While driving slowly with pressure applied to the brake the car slows but then when i apply additional pressure to stop the brake is hard and rolls to a stop instead of stopping where it should. If i am parking it will almost roll into the car parked in front. Dealership said the booster is gone.

All four rotors failed before the brake pads failed. The dealer says this is normal wear and tear. However the vehicle has been lightly used. It seems the brake rotors are made of defective materials subject to abnormal corrosion. Ford customer service refused to cover the parts under warranty. This is a safety issue that i will have to resolve and pay for.
