POWER TRAIN
ODO ERROR DATA ERROR WHILE DRIVING. ODOMETER STOPS WORKING, WRENCH LIGHT TURNS ON, THEN AIR BAG LIGHT. LOSS OF POWER, TRANSMISSION GETS STUCK IN GEAR. YOU CAN'T ACCELERATE AND HAVE TO CRUISE ON TO THE RIGHT TO PULL OVER. HAPPENED TWICE, ONCE ON THE FREEWAY. CODE GOES TO THE SPEED SENSOR WHICH CONTROLS THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTING. AFTER YOU TURN OFF YOUR CAR AND TURN IT ON CODE RESETS HOWEVER CAR IS STUCK IN GEAR. AFTER A FEW HARD SHIFTS FINALLY GOES BACK INTO GEAR. FORD DEALERSHIP SAYS COMMON PROBLEM HOWEVER CAN'T FIGURE OUT IF ITS A HARNESS OR THE SENSORS. REPLACING SENSORS REQUIRES DROPPING THE TRANSMISSION.

TAKATA RECALL WAS ISSUED JUNE 1, 2016 AND THE PARTS ARE STILL NOT AVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER IS TAKING WAY TOO LONG TO PROVIDE REPLACEMENT PARTS. I HAVE CONTACTED EVERY DEALERSHIP WITHIN 50 MILES AND NONE OF THEM HAVE REPLACEMENT PARTS. THE NHTSA SEARCH ALSO INDICATES THAT NO REPLACEMENT IS AVAILABLE YET. THIS IS EXTREMELY UNSAFE AND A REPLACEMENT NEEDS TO BE ISSUED IMMEDIATELY.

TAKATA RECALL - I JUST CHECKED THE STATUS ONLINE TO SEE IF THERE'S BEEN ANY NEW UPDATES AND THERE HASN'T. IT'S GOING ON A YEAR AND THE PARTS ARE STILL NOT AVAILABLE IS WHAT I'M BEING TOLD WHEN I CALL FORD. THIS IS RIDICULOUS! WE'RE TAKING ABOUT AN AIRBAG WHICH IS PRETTY [XXX] IMPORTANT TO HAVE. TO HAVE TO HAVE PEOPLE SIT IN THE BACKSEAT IS A HUGE INCONVENIENCE ESPECIALLY IF YOU NEED ALL THE AVAILABLE SEATING IN THE CAR FOR YOUR FAMILY. OTHER VEHICLES WITH THE SAME ISSUES HAVE BEEN FIXED MONTHS AGO WHY ARE FORD CUSTOMERS STILL WAITING ?!?!! INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

ON JULY 2016, I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR PASSENGER FRONTAL AIR BAG DEFECT. I DECIDED TO CALL ON TO GET AN UPDATE ON FEB 22,2017 TO MY DEALER GREENWAY FORD. THEY SAID THE PARTS ARE NOT IN YET. I TOLD MANAGER I WAS CONCERNED SINCE MY LINE OF WORK IS TO DRIVE CUSTOMERS IN MY CAR. I ASKED FOR RENTAL. HE SAID TO CALL FORD MOTOR COMPANY. I DID AND BEFORE I GOT A REPRESENTATIVE ON LINE , THE RECORDING PLAYED THAT NOT ONLY MAY DEATH AND INJURY RESULT FROM MALFUNCTION BUT OTHER PASSENGERS MAY GET INJURED AS WELL. WHEN I SPOKE TO SOMEONE ABOUT MY CONCERN ALL HE COULD DO IS CONTINUE TO TELL ME THAT THEY DON'T PROVIDE RENTAL CARS AND I WOULD HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL PART CAME IN. I WANT TO FILE COMPLAINT BECAUSE I DO NOT WANT TO WAIT AROUND FOR EVEN MYSELF AS DRIVER GET INJURED OR POSSIBLY DIE.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
VEHICLE CONTINOUSLY FRIES TURN SIGNAL LAMPS. I'VE REPLACED 12 OF THEM SINCE WE BOUGHT IT 4 YEARS AGO. EVERY 4-6 MONTHS IT ACTUALLY MELTS THE BULB HOUSING AND I HAVE TO PRY IT OUT. IF THE VEHICLE CATCHES FIRE I PLAN TO SUE FORD. NO PATTERN TO WHEN THEY BURN IT. COMPLETELY RANDOM BUT I'VE SAVED PHOTOS OF EACH ONE.

WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE TRANSMISSION SKIPPED A COUPLE OF TIMES. AFTER STOPPING THE TRANSMISSION MADE A WHINING NOISE. WHEN I MOVED FORWARD IT WAS VERY SLOW TO MOVE AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE PROPERLY. ARRIVING HOME I PUT THE VEHICLE IN REVERSE AND IT MADE A CLUNKING NOISE. IT IS CURRENTLY AT THE TRANSMISSION SHOP FOR EVALUATION.

FORD EDGE RECALL ON AIRBAGS WAS FIRST ISSUE ON JUNE 1ST, 2016. IT IS NO FEBRUARY 2ND, 2017, WHICH IS 8 MONTHS LATER, AND NO FURTHER INFORMATION ON FIXING THIS DEFECT HAS BEEN MAILED TO US BY FORD. THIS IS AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF TIME TO REMEDY THEIR DEFECT SO I'M PLACING A COMPLAINT FOR LACK OF RESPONSIVENESS BY FORD.

LEFT REAR TAIL LIGHT BURNED OUT CHECK BULB COME TO FIND OUT THE SOCKET IS BURNED BROWN AND THE SOCKET VERY CRISP FALLING APART DUE TO OVER HEATED SOCKET THIS SHOULD BE REPLACED BY FORD. THIS MAY CAUSE A FIRE HAZARD, TAKE YOUR VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND HAVE THIS CHECKED BEFORE YOU HAVE A FIRE!!! I FOUND THIS WHEN I CHECKED TO SEE IF THE TURN SIGNAL/BRAKE LIGHT WERE WORKING.

SERVICE BRAKES
RECALL 13N02 COVERS THE BRAKE BOOSTER IN 2010-2015 FORD EDGE. MY 2008 EDGE HAS THE EXACT SAME ISSUE AS DIAGNOSED BY A FORD DEALERSHIP. IT IS THE EXACT SAME ISSUE WITH THE EXACT SAME COMPONENT. THE REPLACEMENT PART FOR EITHER IS THE EXACT SAME, AS I VERIFIED WITH NUMEROUS SUPPLIERS. THE RECALL NEEDS TO BE EXPANDED TO COVER MORE YEARS, AS MY WIFE NOW DRIVES AN UNSAFE VEHICLE. FORD REDESIGNED THE EDGE FOR THE 2010 MODEL YEAR BUT USED THE EXACT SAME, NOW RECALLED COMPONENT. BRAKING IS DIFFICULT AT ALL SPEEDS, MUCH HARDER THAN THE DAYS BEFORE POWER BRAKES.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
DRIVER'S DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON. MAKING A DINING SOUND CONTINUOUSLY, TURNING INTERIOR CAR LIGHTS ON, AND WON'T ALLOW DOORS TO LOCK. BUT THE DOOR IS SHUT. THIS CONCERNS ME WITH THE LIGHTS TURNING ON AT NIGHT, AND WHAT IF I REALLY DO HAVE A DOOR THAT ISN'T SHUT. THIS CAN HAPPEN AS SOON AS YOU START THE CAR, OR LATER WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD.
