The ford 3,5l duratec engine water pump caused coolant to leak into the engine and is currently breaking down my motor. As coolant & engine oil don't mix, so I have to replace it. Will cost me more than the SUV itself, so going to junk it and beware anybody with any ford edge with that 3.5l duratec engine with the internal water pump. It will fail and by time you notice it, it's too late. Cause my SUV to stall & shut off numerous times because the sensor are off because of the coolant leaking inside the motor.

When the AC is running, the car will stall out. It has happened in traffic on the high way and surburban streets. When idle and ignition is turned off then on again, the vehicle will not start. After approx. 35-55 minutes the car will then start. Finally, it is happening after longer periods of time. I was parked in a lot for several hours, when I went to start it the car would not turn over. I had to have it towed to my house where it did start again 1.5 hours later. I fear for my children's lives.

Brake booster has failed, and now engine won't idle properly and stalls due to vacuum leak from the bad brake booster. I had reported symptoms (hissing, occasional hard pedal, etc.) during service visits while my "bumper to bumper" warranty was still in effect, but was told it was "noise from the new brake pads" and it just needed the brake fluid topped off. Symptoms persisted, but then service bulletin 13n02 was announced, and because my car was manufactured 2 months before the dates covered in the service bulletin the dealership has still refused to cover the costs. So I now have a 2010 edge that is not only hard to stop, but also now stalls out when it does stop!
