2007 Ford Edge Other Problems

Shortly after purchasing your 2007 Ford Edge, multiple warning lights appeared (tire pressure, battery, and check engine), then disappeared when you turned off the car. Two days later, the car failed to start and wouldn't restart for several hours. While driving, white smoke came from the rear of the vehicle, and you noticed oil leaking out. The engine eventually died completely on the road and wouldn't restart, with all the oil having drained from the engine due to a hole in the engine block. The repair will likely require engine replacement or a complete engine rebuild.

SMOKE COMING FROM THE HOOD DON'T KNOW WHAT CAUSE THE FIRE OVER THE ENGINE DON'T KNOW WHAT THE PART IS CALLED BUT IT STARTED A FIRE UNDER THE HOOD WHILE DRIVING WHAT HAVE CAUSE THE SMOKE UNDER THE HOOD AND NOW THE CAR DOESN'T START

I BOUGHT MY CAR A FEW YEARS AGO FROM A USED CAR LOT. I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS EVER SINCE. MY BREAKS KEEP GOING, MY TRANSMISSION IS SLIPPING AND THE TRIMMING AROUND MY WINDSHIELD IS FALLING OUT. I'M AFRAID THE WINDSHIELD IS GOING TO FLY OFF. ALL I KEEP SEEING ATE PROBLEMS WITH THIS CAR.

THE CAR LOSES POWER, TOOL LIGHT POPS UP WHEN I'M DRIVING I CAN'T SEE SPEED I'M GOING. TURN THE CAR OFF AND EVERYTHING RESETS. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE. VERY DANGEROUS WHEN YOU ARE ON THE HIGHWAY.

DRIVING GOING ABOUT 50 MPH ON COUNTY HIGHWAY. STARTING LOSING ALL POWER TO VEHICLE, WITH A VEHICLE BEHIND ME ALSO GOING AT LEAST 50 MPH. PUT HAZARD LIGHTS ON RIGHT AWAY, MADE IT TO A DRIVE WAY AND LIGHTS WERE DIMING, NO POWER, ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. WHEN TRYING TO EXCEL SPEED, THERE WAS NONE. TOOK TO AUTO SHOP TO FIND OUT THAT IT IS THE POWER CONTROL MODULE. SEEMS LIKE THIS IS A FREQUENT PROBLEM AND NEEDS THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL ON THIS.

MY TRANSMISSION IS ABOUT TO BLOW SOON. I HAVE A LOW INCOME AND DOUBT MY ABILITY TO PAY FOR A REPLACEMENT. I WOULDN'T BE WRITING THIS THOUGH IF I WAS THE ONLY ONE BEING AFFECTED BY IT. AFTER SEARCHING THROUGH FORUMS AND REVIEWS, IT WOULD SEEM MANY PEOPLE ARE SUFFERING FROM THE SAME ISSUE. WHILE IN MOTION, THE VEHICLE WILL SKIP GEARS AND REV UP WHILE I'M SLOWING DOWN. I'M NOT SURE WHAT TO DO AT THIS POINT. IT SEEMS TO BE GETTING WORSE AND WORSE. ANY HELP OR INSIGHT WOULD BE HIGHLY APPRECIATED.

HISSING NOISE. FEELS LIKE I HAVE NO POWER BREAKS. THEY SAID MY BREAK BOOSTER IS OUT

MY CAR WAS PARKED IN A PARKING GARAGE TO GO TO THE GYM FOR AN HOUR. I COME BACK TO FIND THE QUARTER WINDOW (TRUCK SIDE WINDOW) ON THE DRIVERS SIDE SHATTERED FOR NO REASON AT ALL. I MADE AN INSURANCE CLAIM, BUT I STILL HAVE TO PAY $500.00 OUT OF POCKET FOR SOMETHING THAT FORD SHOULD PAY FOR.

MY CAR DOOR IS CLOSED AND MY CAR WILL TELL ME THAT MY DOOR CAR IS OPEN WHEN IT'S NOT. IT LEAVES MY LIGHTS ON ALL NIGHT AND IT DRAINS MY BATTERY. IT ALSO LEAVE MY DOOR UNLOCK SINCE IT THINKS MY DOOR IS OPEN.

SOMETIMES WHEN I STOP AT A RED LIGHT OR STOP SIGN FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD I CAN SMELL EXHAUST FUMES IN THE CABIN OF THE EDGE. NOT EVERY SINGLE TIME. BUT FAIRLY REGULAR.

WHILE DRIVING AT 40MPH OR GREATER, THE CAR IS SKIPPING, JERKING OR HESITATING. THIS STARTED TO HAPPEN WHILE DRIVING UP A SLIGHT INCLINE BUT NOW HAPPENS EVEN ON LEVEL ROAD AND HAPPENS SEVERAL TIMES DURING A 16 MILE DRIVE. SERVICE DEPARTMENT IS UNABLE TO PIN POINT THE ISSUE AND IT IS GETTING WORSE. THE OTHER DAY WHILE IT WAS HAPPENING AN ORANGE ENGINE EMISSION LIGHT WAS BLINKING. I HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH THIS FOR OVER A YEAR AND ALL THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT CAN SAY IS THAT IT IS A BAD ENGINE COIL BUT THEY DON'T KNOW WHICH ONE. FROM THE LOOKS OF OTHER FORMS, I AM NOT THE ONLY 2007 FORD EDGE OWNER THIS IS HAPPING TO AND IT SOUNDS LIKE IT IS AN EXPENSIVE FIX. THERE IS OBVIOUSLY A PROBLEM WITH THIS MAKE AND MODEL AND FORD NEEDS TO STEP UP AND RECALL IT.

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

TOOK CAR IN TO CHECK BRAKES 10/29/13 TECH SAYS HE COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM. DROVE 45 MILES BACK HOME AND NO BRAKES. DROVE BACK VERY SLOWLY TYHE SAME DAY. TECH SAYS "OH YOU NEED A NEW MASTER CYLINDER AND BOOSTER". COSTS $873. ON JULY 3RD THE BRAKES FAILIED AGAIN. ALMOST RAN INTO A HOUSE WITH NO BRAKES. HAD THE CAR TWOWED. THEY SEEM TO CANNOT FIND A PROBLEM CAR HAS BEEN WITH AUTO NATION FORD UNION CITY, GA 3 DAYS NOW WITH NO END IN SITE. WAS TOLD BY THE SERVICE ADVISOR THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE MASTER CYLINDERS. I COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING. HE ALSO TOLD ME THAT A RECALL MAY HAVE BEEN ACTIVE WHEN I PAID FOR THE REPAIR AT THE SAME DEALERSHIP IN OCTOBER 2013. *JS

I OWN A 2007 FORD EDGE. I SHOVED A PLASTIC ICE SCRAPER BETWEEN THE DASH AND THE WINDSHIELD. THE WINDSHIELD CRACKED. CLEARLY, THE WINDSHIELD SHOULD WITHSTAND THE IMPACT OF A PLASTIC ICE SCRAPER.
