ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
2007 FORD EDGE. HISTORY: REGULAR SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE PERFORMED ALWAYS, GARAGE KEPT, TAKEN WELL CARE OF. MILEAGE AT THIS TIME IS 145K. ***DRIVING ALONG (IN TOWN) WHEN I NOTICED THE EDGE WAS IDLING REALLY LOW (NOTE: 2 WEEKS AFTER SCHEDULED OIL CHANGE, INSPECTION AND NEW BATTERY)-ALL OF A SUDDEN HEARD THIS TERRIBLE CLANKING NOISE. IT SOUNDED LIKE THE WHOLE CAR WAS FALLING APART. I PULLED OVER IN TO A PARKING LOT, SHUT THE CAR OFF. TRIED TO CRANK IT AGAIN AND IT WOULDN'T CRANK-FINALLY DID AFTER SEVERAL TRIES (STILL MAKING THIS TERRIBLE SOUND). **NO WARNING LIGHTS, NO FLUCTUATING IN GAGES---NOTHING. WE HAD THE EDGE TOWED TO OUR FORD DEALERSHIP AND WERE TOLD THE WATER PUMP WENT BAD AND THE ENGINE WAS DESTROYED. OUR OIL WAS FULL OF WATER/COOLANT--IT LOOKED LIKE MUDDY WATER. WHAT? HOW? NO WARNING, NO SIGNS? AFTER MUCH RESEARCH WE ARE FINDING THAT THE WATER PUMP IS INSIDE THE ENGINE, THEREFORE IF THE WATER PUMP "GOES" THERE ARE NO EXTERNAL SIGNS OF LEAKAGE---IT'S KINDLY LEAKING IN TO YOUR ENGINE AND DESTROYING IT. THIS LITERALLY HAPPENED IN A MATTER OF MINUTES. YES, THIS IS SAFETY ISSUE--IT LEFT ME STRANDED AND NOW I'M WITHOUT A VEHICLE FOR ANOTHER WEEK OR SO WHILE A NEW ENGINE IS BEING ORDERED AN INSTALLED. I CAN'T BELIEVE FORD HASN'T ADDRESSED THIS "DESIGN" ISSUE WITH ALL THE COMPLAINTS I'VE READ THUS FAR. THIS DESERVES A RECALL AND AT THE VERY LEAST IT DESERVES FORD'S ATTENTION TO BE REDESIGNED. RESEARCH ALSO SHOWS THIS IS NOT JUST A FORD EDGE PROBLEM---IT'S OTHER FORD MAKES AS WELL. THIS IS NOW AN $8000 "FIX". PLEASE HAVE THIS LOOKED IN TO ON THE CONSUMER'S BEHALF.

INDEPENDENT MECHANIC RECOMMENDED TAKING THE VEHICLE TO FORD DEALER FOR PCM REPLACEMENT AND RE-PROGRAMING. DEALER SAID VEHICLE WAS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY. VEHICLE HAS JUST OVER 71,000 MILES.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
MY BLINKER LIGHT STARTED BLINKING REALLY FAST AND I KNEW THAT THAT INDICTATED THAT I HAD A BULB OUT. I SAW THAT IT WAS THE REAR LEFT AND PURCHASED A NEW BULB FOR IT. I SEARCHED ONLINE FOR HOW TO CHANGE THE BULB PROPERLY AND FOUND SEVERAL VIDEOS FOR HOW TO DO IT BUT THEY ALL SHOWED THAT THE BULB SOCKET HAD OVERHEATED AND WAS BURNT. SURE ENOUGH, WHEN I OPENED UP MINE TO CHANGE THE BULB, THE SOCKET THAT HOLDS THE BULB IS BURNT AND THE THE BULB WAS PARTIALLY MELTED INTO THE SOCKET. I CHECKED OTHER SIDE AND IT IS THE SAME THING. THE SOCKET IS BURNT AND CHARRED AND THE BULB IS STUCK IN IT. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY AN OVERHEATING ISSUE AND I'M CONCERNED FOR THE SAFETY OF THE VEHICLE.

ONLY GROUP 4 HAS UNTIL 2019 TO HAVE AIRBAG SITUATION REMEDIED. I OWN A 2007 FORD EDGE. LOCAL DEALER DOES NOT HAVE PARTS OR AN ESTIMATE ON WHEN THEY WOULD GET PARTS.

TANAKA RECALL - I WAS PROVIDED NOTICE IN JULY 2016 THAT MY PASSENGER FRONT AIRBAGS WERE ON RECALL AND THAT THEY WOULD LET ME KNOW WHEN PARTS ARE/WERE AVAILABLE. I HAVE CALLED REGULARLY AND STOPPED BY THE DEALERSHIPS REGULARLY AND HAVE BEEN TOLD PARTS ARE STILL NOT AVAILABLE. THIS WAS NEARLY 2 YEARS AGO - THEY TOLD ME I CAN NOT HAVE A PASSENGER IN FRONT OF CAR. THIS HAS PREVENTED ME FROM BEING IN A CARPOOL AT SCHOOL AND HAS BEEN A MAJOR INCONVENIENCE. I RECEIVED YET ANOTHER NOTICED IN DECEMBER 2017 THAT PARTS ARE STILL NOT AVAILABLE. FORGIVE ME, BUT SHOULDN'T I HAVE FULL USE OF MY VEHNICLE? SO FRUSTRATED! I HOPE SOMEONE READS THIS!
