2 tires on 2007 edge- 1st failure was 'valve stem problem' sudden loss of pressure- july, 2008 near sheboygan, wi. 2 hours later, 1 tire -blow out on interstate in milwaukee. Lucky to have maintained control of vehicle. Bought 4 new tires that afternoon as a result of being on vacation, and nearest ford dealer did not have matching hankook tires available. As not having 4 exactly same tires can lead to other driving problems, I bought 4 new tires to avert any further harrowing experiences on the interstate.
2007 Ford Edge tires complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 27 of 27, newest first, as owners wrote them.
I have a 2007 ford edge and have had two blowouts on the highway. Both caused by a faulty valve stem.
Three valve stems have gone bad on our 2007 for edge in the past two weeks. Ford refuses to change remaining stems until a leak occurs.
Flat tire with my 2007 ford edge. Same valve was replaced earlier this year. Flat again, ford dealership wants me to replace tire. Valve was cause of flat. Tire is hankook dynapro as// dot 5m7c djnh// p235 65r17103t. Same complaints as on internet.
My tire valve stems were cracked and leaking on all four tires of my 2007 ford edge and the tire pressure dropped dramatically in one day. When I called my ford dealer they had no idea what I was talking about. I had to have the valve stems replaced on two tires and replace two entire tires at my own expense.
Valve stems were leaking..continually..replaced all five of them.
In sept. We noticed that we were losing air in our tires, upon closer look we discovered that the valve stems were cracked around the bottom. We took the car into our nearest ford dealer and at a cost of $42.39 they put four new tire valve stems on.
Took my car in to have my tires rotated and noticed that the stem on the front driver side tire was torn, nearly eroding off. Had to purchase a new tire to avoid a possible future accident. I saw on the news that this seems to be a problem with most 2007 fords, so I'm contributing my incident.
Tl*the contact owns tech international valve stems, model tr413. On july 16, 2008, while driving 65 MPH, the tires blew out. The contact moved to the side of the road and replaced the tire with a spare. He took the vehicle to discount tire and the mechanic informed him that all four of the valve stems were defective. The mechanic also stated that the valve stems were included in a recall. Tech international stated that they would only reimburse the contact for repairing the tires if they had been replaced instead of the originals. They advised him to contact ford. Ford confirmed that they were the original tires and would be unable to reimburse him because they were not the manufacturers of the tires. The tire manufacturer stated that they could not reimburse him because they were not the manufacturers of the valve stem. The serial and part numbers were unknown. The failure mileage was 17,000 and current mileage was 19,000.
While traveling on I-35 the left front tire suddenly lost air pressure at highway speeds. Upon inspection of tire, no damage other than what was inflicted from the event of traveling at 70mph while flat was found. The problem was that the valve stem failed. It was cracked at the base allowing a sudden loss of tire pressure. The other valve stems on the car are also cracked at the base but not completely failed yet.
My 2007 sensor detected low pressure. (please note: I took my car to beach ford 757--486-2717 last week and requested they change out all of the valves-------they changed out only the flat one and only put new caps on the others!!!!) my concern is they may have done this with other consumers. I drove from virginia beach to wash. Dc on sunday. On i95 averaging 65-80 MPH. The inconvenience of spending yesterday at the dealership again is nothing in comparison to the impact of losing my life like the man in florida due to a faulty valve. To date: rear passenger went bad. Replaced by non dealer (paul's auto) front driver's tire last week back driver's tire yesterday. (I watched yesterday to ensure they changed out the remaining one.
2007 ford edge right back tire went flat. Took to shop. "bad valve' two weeks later, front left has a bad valve.
I purchased a 2007 ford edge sel plus, and 6 months later I kept getting a low pressure message. I would refill the tire and a day later it was low. I took it in to the dealer and the valve stem was broken, as well as 3 other cracked valve stems. They replaced them all but charged me a discounted rate of $65 for the labor. Ford refused to cover it, and I had very low miles on the car. This was frightening, knowing this was the problem with the explorer in the 1990's.
While driving my 2007 ford edge it displays "tire pressure sensor fault". This occurs generally during highway driving. When I took it to the dealer for repair, I was told that they couldn't figure out why the message was displayed. It has not been fixed. It would seem to me that this highly touted safety feature should work.
On the way to work in my new car, signal went off for low tire pressure. Took to a tire place and the valve stem was leaking air at the point of the join of the tire. I have never in all my years of driving experienced such a thing.
Tl*the contact owns a 2007 ford edge. The vehicle has hankook dynapro as, size p235/70r17s tires. While driving 35 MPH, the tires do not grip and the ABS activates. The contact feels that the stopping distance between his vehicle and others is too excessive. He also feels that the tires are the source of the failure. The current and failure mileages were 1,250.
After driving out of the dealers lot not more than ten miles down the road the TPMS system went off telling me I had low tires on the vehicle (200 miles on it). Called dealer and was told to air up the tires and it would reset it's self in 2 minutes. Did not happen. Drove home only to find that the left back-up light was also not working.
