My brake lights are not turning off. Upon inspection of the brake light switch attached to the pedal, I saw a plastic part (washer) that had broken in half. I believe it is the same issue that affected other 2014-15 Ford models. (https://www.freep.com/story/money/cars/ford/2022/01/19/ford-recall-brakes-fusion-lincoln-mkz/6580413001/)
Material used for tail light housing develop cracks from changes in temperature allowing water into the housing and impacting the function of brake and reverse lights.
REAR HATCH TAILLIGHT LENS HAS CONDENSATION FORM IN IT MAKEING THE LIGHT UNIT FOGS UP. THE CONDENSATION DOES NOT DISAPPEAR IN WARM WEATHER AND IN COLD WEATHER ICE UP. AFTER CHECKING WITH THE DEALER THEY SAY WHEN THEY REPLACE THE ENTIRE UNIT THIS OCCUR AGAIN. THEY SAID IT IS A BAD DESIGN. I LIVE IN A STATE THAT REQUUIRES A VEHICLE YEARLY STATE INSPECTION.AND FOGED UP LENS IS A CONSERN. THIS DOES NOT LEAK INTO THE LENS IN RAIN OR CAR WASH. THIS AUTO IS KEPT GARAGED EXCEPT WHEN IN USE.

THE REAR TAIL LIGHT ON THE 2015 FORD EDGE SEL HAS DEVELOPED CRACKS WHICH LEAK AND CAUSE CONDENSATION AND WATER TO BUILD UP INSIDE THE TAIL LIGHT. THIS CREATES THE POTENTIAL FOR A ELECTRICAL SHORT OR FIRE.
THE HALOGEN LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ON THE 2015 FORD EDGE SEL ARE EXTREMELY WEAK AND PRODUCE VERY LITTLE LIGHT AT NIGHT. THEY END UP CAUSING SEVERE SAFETY ISSUES DERIVED FROM POOR NIGHTTIME VISIBILITY.
