Today, my wife brought her 2010 ford edge in for the 3rd time in a matter of 3 weeks, to the local dealership. The problem is while she is driving, the check engine light will come on and the engine will stall leaving her stranded in the middle of traffic, after a minute she can restart it but it happens shortly after that. They had replaced a sensor on the last visit but yet again today the light came back on and it stalled several times before she could get it home. This places my wife and others in traffic with her in danger as when the car stalls there is no way to warn other drivers and could cause an accident. I do not believe the dealership has any clue as to what is going on with this vehicle. I have done some research online using google and have found there are many others out there who seem to have had the same problem and no one seems to have a definite reason as to why.

On 1/21/12, I pulled into a parking space, with my foot on the brake to put the car into park, the engine made a funny noise and the car surged forward crashing into a ford mustang. This crash should never have happened since my foot had the brake depressed. When the car came to a halt after hitting the mustang, I had to pull the gear shift out of "park" to back up off the damaged vehicle. After taking my vehicle to randall ford to be checked out, I was informed that there was nothing wrong with my vehicle. They tried to convince me that my foot was on both pedals. This is virtually impossible to do in my car unless my foot was turned at a 90 degree angle from it's normal position. If my foot had slipped off the brake and hit the gas I would have said that and never taken my vehicle in to be inspected. I know ford never wants to admit they have a problem with their vehicles but I urge the "powers that be" to go back into their issue history and check out the issues you had with the ford freespirit surging forward on numerous occasions. I would like for someone to take this issue serious while my car is still under warranty. I cannot afford an $8000. Repair. I would also like to state that if someone had been between my car and the mustang it hit, they could have been severely hurt or killed.

I purchased my 2010 ford edge the first week of may 2011. Within three days I noticed that the vehicle would accelerate suddenly, and the RPM would jump from 1500 to 3500, then back again. This happened several times. I called the dealership where I purchased the vehicle, and they stated I could take it to any ford service dept. I did just that and was told nothing was wrong with the vehicle. When I went to retrieve my newly purchased ford edge, there was a four inch gash in the right side of the hood. They denied that the gash happened at their service dept. When I pulled away from the service dept. The vehicle did the same surging forward and the RPM's jumped again. I called the service dept. Asap! They had me return immediately, and I went through hell to get a loaner car while my vehicle sat in the service dept through the weekend. On monday of the following week, the service dept mgr called me to let me know that they couldn't find anything wrong with the car. When I picked up the edge that evening, I had the serviceman ride with me. My edge did it again, and I demonstrated how it also did it while set on cruise. This was not a slip of my foot as assumed by the service mgr. They did not fix the issue, but only stated that this is normal for this vehicle. This is not normal when I'm subjected to an accident due to a surging vehicle. I was almost hit while merging as my edge would not immediately accelerate, then boom it shot forward where I needed to apply my brakes or hit the car in front of me. I still experience this surging at least three to four times a week. I'm waiting for my accident!!!!!

Sudden, unintended acceleration of my 2010 ford edge vehicle: I turned into my house driveway at approximately 5 to 10 miles/hour speed. As soon as I turned into my driveway, the car suddenly and unintentionally accelerated. I could not control the car. I swerved to avoid my garage, but ended up damaging badly one garage door and the outer corner of my garage wall. The car then crashed against a tree in my lawn and came to a stop. There was bad damage to the front of the car. I was the only one in the car. I was not hurt. There was no injury to anyone else. I called in the police. When the officer asked me what happened, I told him that I might have accelerated the car in error, but I was not sure if there was an electronic problem with the car. In the month preceding the accident, on 2 or 3 occasions, the RPM gauge in the car will suddenly jump from approximately 1500 RPM to approximately 3500 RPM for no obvious reason, there will be a slight jerk in the car but no acceleration of the car. Within a few seconds, the RPM will go back down to approximately 1500 RPM by itself. I did not remember these incidents when I spoke to the investigating police officer. These 2 to 3 episodes in the month preceding the accident makes me suspect that the problem is not due to human error, but due to an electronic problem with the car. My insurance company has evaluated the damage to my car and my home and is in the process of settling the claims. The car is in the collision shop recommended by the insurance company and is considered repairable. However, I am not comfortable driving this car again until a problem in the car is ruled out. I e-mailed ford motor company customer relations. They promised to respond within 3 business days, but have not done so. Hence, I am contacting the federal safety agency.

My 2010 ford edge also had the idle stall problem. At 4500 miles the problem started. Took my vehicle in and the dealer was able to recreate the stall from computer. There is a recall from the mfg for the idle controller. However, there is a backorder for the part until the end of september. My dealer located a part from another dealer and will be replacing it tomorrow if the part arrives. I also refused to drive the vehicle until problem is resolved. I haven't received any recall notices from ford motor company.

Driving down highway at 65 MPH and 2010 ford edge completely shut down. I had no warning, all gauges were off, no power, and no hazard lights. Ford has had the car for 10 days trying to fix it. They have put 200 miles on it and brought in a ford engineer (specialist) to try and locate and fix the problem. They cannot duplicate the problem, cannot figure what caused it and have not replaced nor fixed any parts on the car. They want to release the car back to me to wait and see if and when it happens again. This is completely unacceptable as this car has a known serious safety defect with potential catastrophic consequences.

I am having what may be a very serious health/hazard issue with my 2008 ford edge. The problem is when you drive the vehicle oil is leaking from the transmission/ptu seal on to the muffler/leadpipe,burning ,and sending toxic fumes through the fresh air system. I had to pull over today to air the vehicle out, in which it has left me sick from the burning fumes. When sitting oil is leaking onto the ground. I have contacted my ford dealer, in which they have attempted to repair with ford updated seals. The issue that I am dealing with is what I believe is a serious health risk to the driver or passengers of this vehicle. I ask for your assistance in this matter.

I purchased a 2010 edge limited for a gift & the next day I noticed the strong odor of antifreeze coming from the heating system. My wife also noticed the same odor when she drove it christmas day. She has taken it to the dealer it was purchased from & the local dealer & both say they can not find any problem. It is very noticeable when the engine is cold, then comes & goes through out the day. Being a mechanic for over 35 years tells me the heater core and or related components have a very small coolant leak. We have to crack a window or open the sunroof when the heat is on to let the fumes escape or you can stand to be in the car.
