8/11/2018 I CAME UPON STOPPED TRAFFIC WITH NOT ENOUGH TIME TO DECELERATE. I IMMEDIATELY HIT MY BRAKES, BUT REARENDED A PICKUP TRUCK. THE TRUCK FLIPPED OVER ON ITS PASSENGER SIDE. I CONTINUED TRAVELING AND WENT ON THE EMBANKMENT. AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. I NOTICED FRONT PASSENGER SIDE IN FLAMES. PASSERSBY GOT BOTH OF US OUT. BUT THE CAR WAS TOTALLY ENGULFED IN FLAMES. IT HAPPENED ON INTERSTATE.

WE WERE INVOLVED IN A FOUR CAR CRASH. WE WERE THE THIRD CAR. THE TRAFFIC WAS A LITTLE HEAVY AND STOP AND GO. THE TWO CARS IN FRONT OF US STOPPED FAST AND WE DID TOO. THEN WE LOOKED IN THE REAR VIEW MIRROR AND SAW A HONDA ODYSSEY COMING AT US AT ABOUT 35-40 MPH. THE DRIVER SLAMMED INTO THE REAR OF OUR CAR. THE CAR STARTED ON FIRE AS SOON AS WE WERE HIT. I WAS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT AND I COULD SEE THE FLAMES AND SMOKE COMING OUT OF THE CAR. MY HUSBAND JUMPED OUT OF THE CAR AND I COULDN'T OPEN MY DOOR. MY HUSBAND THEN HIT THE UNLOCK BUTTON ON HIS SIDE AND THEN CAME AROUND TO THE PASSENGER SIDE AND GOT ME OUT OF THE CAR. I WAS CRYING AND TERRIFIED. A BUSINESS MAN CAME FROM ACROSS THE STREET AND TRIED TO PUT THE FIRE OUT WITH A FIRE EXTINGUISHER. HE HAD TO RETURN BACK TO HIS BUSINESS AND OUR NEW CAR WAS STILL ON FIRE. THE POLICE AND FIRE DEPARTMENT CAME AND PUT OUT THE FIRE. THE CAR WAS THEN TOWED AWAY. I WENT TO THE HOSPITAL. I WAS SORE FROM WHERE THE SEATBELT WAS AND FROM BEING SO BADLY JERKED BACK AND FORTH. I AM STILL RECEIVING SOME MEDICAL CARE. THE DRIVER OF THE HONDA ODYSSEY WAS FOUND AT FAULT AND ISSUED A TICKET. WE HAVE YET TO FIND OUT WHY THIS CAR STARTED ON FIRE. NO ONE AT THE FORD DEALERSHIP COULD OR WOULD ANSWER THAT QUESTION. CAN YOU FIND THE ANSWER THIS QUESTION? IS THERE A DEFECT IN THIS CAR? THREE OLDER VEHICLES IN THIS ACCIDENT AND THE ONLY CAR THAT STARTS ON FIRE IS OUR BRAND NEW 2013 FORD EDGE WITH 5,000 MILES ON IT. FORD SHOULD STEP UP TO THE PLATE AND ACKNOWLEDGE THERE IS A PROBLEM WHEN A BRAND NEW CAR STARTS ON FIRE. *TR

The airbags did not deploy when the car was in a front and rear end collision on 2/12/26. Injuries occurred. No one has confirmed the problem. The car was taken to a Collison center to be evaluated but am uncertain if that part has been evaluated. There were not symptoms of failure beforehand.

The contact owns a 2013 Ford Edge. The contact stated that the vehicle had previously been involved in a crash due to brake failure, which caused him to lose control of the vehicle and crash into the guardrail. The air bags did not deploy. The contact stated that the front passenger side seat belt, door, fender, tire, CV joint axle, bumper, bumper cover, headlights, and grill had been replaced. A police report was filed. The contact suffered neck pain, and medical treatment was received. The contact stated that the failure recurred while driving at an undisclosed speed; the brake pedal was extremely firm while depressed and made a hissing sound. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, and the air bag module was reset. The contact was informed that there was no brake failure. The vehicle was then taken to Simmons-Rockwell Ford, Inc. (1160 Co Rd 66, Hornell, NY 14843), and the contact was informed that the VIN was included in the Customer Satisfaction Program: 13N02 (Extended Warranty Coverage On Brake Booster); however, the vehicle exceeded the mileage limitations. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 170,000.

The Brakes on my 2013 Ford Edge failed resulting in an accident with my 17 year old son on 1-11-22. The pedal was pressed all the way down, and only the emergency break stopped the vehicle. When pressing it brake, it was as if there were no brakes whatsoever. We had a total brake job done on 8-6-2021. on 9-19-21 the car would hardly come to a complete stop, same issue that my son encountered. The pedal would go all the way down and the pedal would hiss during this time. We had the brake booster replaced. So in a span of 1 month and an half we spent $1,600.25 only for the issue to occur again to put my sons life and others at Risk. I have been doing some research and this is a common issue with this particular vehicle. Ford did do an partial recall of this apparently, but our vehicle was not part of this. There are many instances of the Ford Edge having this exact same problem that Ford does not seem to want to address. This car is unsafe. We will be selling this back to the dealership as we are not comfortable to drive it. There are many parts to the brake system that can cause this from the Power Booster, the ABS injector and the Master Brake Cylinder. There are many instances where this is a very intermittent problem. The issue occurs, and then the mechanics can't find anything wrong. there are hundreds of testimonies online for this vehicle and the issues that it has.

Power Brake Booster Failure- No Warning Lights

I have a 2013 ford edge and I was driving at 40=45 mph and when I came up to a light the brake peddle went to the floor and was very hard to stop. The result was me having to leave the road to the right to avoid a collision. I took it to ford who stated it needed a brake booster and said my vehicle doesn't qualify for an extended warranty on the booster. Car had 88k miles at time of incident.prior to the incident no lights or signs. After this I hear a loud hissing noise from under dash.

Brake pedal sinks to the floor, I have replaced the master cylinder (3) times and also the Break Power Buster. . . Problem still exist

On June 7th, 2022 my wife [XXX] was driving her 2013 Ford Edge and stopped at the Belks Department store located at the Tri-City Mall located in Forest City, NC 28043. She parked her car and went inside to shop. After approximately 10 minutes shopping inside the store, she hears an announcement over the Belks Store intercom “ Would the person driving a White Ford Edge please come to the cosmetic counter. When she walks over to the counter a store employee, and a customer, told her that her car had rolled down the parking lot and hit a parked tractor trailer rig ( trailer only). Fortunately it did not hit any other cars located in the parking lot. The front end of the Ford Edge was severely damaged, including, front hood, front bumper, grilles, coolant fan, and other front end items. The tractor trailer was not damaged.
