Filed Apr 15, 2021 · Brakes, Engine · MI

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.

When driving the car gear will slip into neutral and the vehicle will not accelerate, even when pressing on the gas. There is a "clunk" when moving the transmission from park into drive and the vehicle will not move.

The transmission is slipping at times where it won't move and surging at times where you have poor control over the vehicle. This just started at 88,420 miles when my wife was coming home from the store. The maintenance is up to date on the entire driveline of this vehicle.

While driving on a city street and on a state road transmission will act and sound like it is slipping or not engaging in gear and sometimes will only work in reverse.when problem occurs vehicle will lose all power and engine will rev up but vehicle will not move. I have had it towed to dealer and have taken it in to dealer, they say they cannot duplicate the the problem. They also told me that when it happens I need to pull over somewhere safe and shut the car off and let the "computer/ sensors " reset and that will "take care" of the problem. The problem is getting progressively worse as time goes on. I am afraid if this happens in traffic someone is going to get seriously hurt or killed as there is no power to get off the road and out of traffic

My 2007 ford edge, began having problems with the transmission november 2011. While driving, pulling onto very busy highway, edge slipped into neutral. Numerous vehicles had to suddenly stop to prevent from crashing into me. Needless to say I was extremely upset, but also very thankful no one was injured. Now the problem begins. Notified chapman ford about this problem was told to bring in edge. Explained to service edge slipped into neutral, engine light came on along with wrench light. After pulling off to side of road still could not get car to move. I then turned car off for a minute or so, started up the car and it was fine. After a few days I received a call telling me it was the throttle body and would cost 674.00 dollars since this was not covered under warranty. So, throttle body was replaced. Now my edge began having the exact same problem 1 month ago, was told now it was the transmission! Problem is warranty expired 1 month ago. Tired to explain had the problem been corrected the first time, transmission would have still been under warranty. Spoke with numerous people including ford, to be told the same thing "we can't help sorry your warranty expired". I am now driving my edge with fear this can happen at any time. It gives no warning what so ever, by the way my edge only has 28,000 miles and is very well maintained. I have seen many complaints about this problem, and ford does not seen to want to address the problem. Hopefully, no one will get seriously hurt and ford will stand by there edge! Thank you for your time, I hope this is helpful for others and this safety problem can be resolved.

When starting to pull into traffic vehicle transmission engages hard and slips between 1st 2nd & 3rd. Vehicle does not do this continuously. Dropped it off @ dealership on 08/20/2012 and they could not replicate the problem and stated that computer did not show a code. Dealership advised that I bring it back when transmission was slipping or engaging hard.

There are three main issues with my 2007 ford edge. First the brakes make noises and sometimes work and sometimes don't. The tires kept going flat. I have replaced all 4 four tires and one front and one back tire twice now. The transmission slips frequently.
