2013 Ford Edge acceleration problems

Filed May 13, 2024 · Acceleration, Brakes · FL

About a week ago my brakes on my 2013 Ford Edge Limited became for hard to press. The pedal became stiff. I almost was unable to stop even though I was going extremely slow approaching an intersection that was very busy. I have looked up recalls on this issue with the same description and realize Ford had issued a recall on 2013 Ford Edges however only certain Vin numbers. However, surfing through multiple posts and forums I am finding 100's so far of people that are angry because Ford refused to own up to the fact the all these 2013 Ford Edges are having issues with the Brake Booster which is a major safety issue and should have no cut off period due to the importance of this defective part! I finally wad able to bring my car to the dealer due to the other mechanic's I brought it to are all getting an invalid read when they do the diagnostic test on the car. Now Ford Dealership Jarret Ford in Dade City said it will be $1389. 00 to fix my brake booster. This is highway robbery.

I have a 2013 Ford Edge. Mileage approx 55,000 miles. All scheduled maintenance was up to date. In July 2023, while driving, car started to decelerate. No noises, smells or loss of steering. It was as if my gas pedal just stopped working. My dash had a warning to refer to owners manual. I Thank the Lord there was a break in traffic and I could "coast" to the emergency lane. I shut off the car, restarted it and everything was fine. Took it to my repair shop, they did a fuel injection cleaner and said...see how it goes. Cost: 150.00. 5 weeks later, August 2023 the same thing happened. Went back to repair shop where they diagnosed I needed a throttle body assembly replacement. Tack on another 450.00 bill. In both cases the power loss could have resulted in an accident with bodily injuries. My complaint about the Ford throttle body is not the first, a recall should be issued!

Vehicle will not idle at the correct rpms. Replaced battery and alternator had everything checks by a certified mechanic. The battery light will come on while driving and the car will begin to stall out while driving. Cannot run ac or any electric component in the car. Really scary when you have kids in the car driving down the road and it begins to shut down but still going the same rate of speed.

Stability control system keeps coming on

The collision avoidance and cruise control system has become intermittent, undependable and dangerous while driving. There is no way to tell when it is woking or not and to depend on it is asking for disaster. The dealer doesn't seem to have a clue as to what to do about it.

The engine light is on in my car. I took it to a repair shop and they said it had the codes of p2196 and p2198 a h02s heated oxygen sensor is malfuntioning. When the rep pulled up the codes he informed me they had thousands of my same vehicle with the same problem. I contacted ford warranty and they said it was not covered. This is horrible for ford to know this is a defect on their vehicle and not be responsible for fixing it. So I would like to launch this formal complaint. I will never buy another ford vehicle again. The aip has gone out in my vehicle and I have had other issues that the ford warranty has said did not apply. The vehicle was in motion when the light came on.

While driving in town car lost power and limped along. Yellow/orange wrench light came on. Pulled over turned engine off then restarted, worked fine. Manual said power train loss of power. Three times it's happened and ford can't find code to determine problem. No confidence in car. If happened on highway at high speeds there probably would have been major accident

On several occasions I have been driving when suddenly my car loses power and enters limp-home mode and a wrench flashes on the dash that says see manual. This seems to be a common issue affecting the electronic throttle body on fords made around the same year. This has happened to me turning in the middle of an intersection and while trying to accelerate on the highway which could easily lead to an accident.

This has happened on at least 6 occasions int he last week. Most recently I was traveling on a highway at approx. 50mph when the engine entered a default low power state and the check engine light illuminated. I was able to pull onto the shoulder and the car behind me was able to avoid a collision by slamming on their brakes. Additionally, the car consistently presents symptoms of rough idle, rough engine running at normal speeds, and a highly decreased fuel economy. After pulling the odbii codes and some research, this appears to be a known problem with the car's throttle body assembly. The odbii code is p2111.

My wife was driving yesterday and without any warning, the vehicle lost power and she was almost in a accident!!! It was like the vehicle died. It only has about 44,000 miles on it and I just bought it with 41,000 on it. My wife was very scared and so was I, as I was at work and it took me an hour to get to her. I drove it today and it did the same thing to me, loss power as I was driving. Apparently, many people have complained of this. I need this fixed as this is a common problem with this vehicle and you guys are aware of it. Something with the throttle body and linkage! I need and want this fixed. My wife and I should not have to worry about something like this while she is on the road. I am very angry and disappointed in ford!!!!
