Backup camera intermittently goes black and blank. It gives a warning that the camera is not available. Took it to the dealer when it first started happening in 2019, but they wanted over $1000 to fix it. There is a recall for the 2020 with this problem due to an electrical issue. Why is the 2014 not included?

Rear backup camera can show distorted images or suddenly go dark when engine is running and put into reverse when backing up. Camera image is sporadic. It will sometimes flicker and go out or not engage at all showing either a black or blue screen and saying "rear camera not available". Happens w/o warning. Warmer weather effects it more often than in cold or when foot is applied to the brake. I purchased car brand new from ford dealership and this started happening after warranty was up. Took to ford dealership to diagnose cost estimate over $800 to fix. Took to local repair shop and was told it was electrical and needed a code that they couldn't access. There's a recall for 2020 ford edge vehicles on this matter as this should be grandfathered in in the recall. It does the same exact thing! I have video that shows much more how this happens.
Random stalling. Usually when slowing down. Dashboard lights up all kinds of warnings. No codes. Shift is locked in park and can not move vehicle. Always able to restart without issue after some delay. Seems to help to unconnect positive battery terminal and drain charge.
I was driving my vehicle in rush hour traffic and it displayed a wrench symbol and went into limp mode. Due to the car slowing down, I had issues getting to the side of the highway. I had it towed to the dealer after 8 days they said it was the electrical signal to the throttle body. The manufacture has issued a recall on some models but not all and refuse to cover the repair even though it is a known issue. If the is a mandatory recall, they will have to cover this dangerous issue. Please consider issuing a full recall.
Vehicle displayed warning 'service advancetrac' and braked in an extremely rough and unsafe manner. Vehicle would not accelerate then after over 2000 rpms. Dealership identified as potential issue with steering angle sensor.
Advancetraclight continues to stay on
On april 3, 2018, my wife was driving our 2014 ford edge. As she was entering a curve at 35 MPH, the 'low oil pressure light came on' and she immediately lost the capability to easily turn the steering wheel, and the car began to slow down rapidly. Fortunately, she was not on a freeway or she could have been seriously injured or killed. She realized that even though the engine was still running, the gas pedal would not work. I called planet ford in houston where we purchased the car and I routinely have the car maintained. Anthony, the quick lane manager, told me to bring the car in. By then, we had checked the internet for similar occurrences and we had found that there had been thousands of similar reports and millions of dollars paid by ford in lawsuits. Anthony told me that he would fix the car at no cost after I explained the details and told him that this should have been a 'recall issue'. They had serviced the car less one month earlier. On tuesday, april 10th, I called and found that the car had been moved to the regular service area. It still was not fixed. Brad zook, the service manager, told me that I was going to have to pay for the repair even though I told him that anthony said it would be free.later that day, it was 'repaired' and we picked up the car. They had to replace the 'etb' which is exactly what the internet referred to. I called brad on wednesday and asked how they diagnosed the problem. He said it was a combination of codes (strange) and my description of the problem. How do I know that this won't happen again, or some other malfunction that wasn't a recall, will happen next!?
The door ajar light comes on when I shut the driver side door. The door is latched and is shut properly but the light still comes on. Every time I brake it dings and it displays the door is ajar and transmission is not in park light. This issue is sporadic.
When driving at highway speeds (65 MPH+) with cruise control enabled, if I pass an 18 wheeler, the car will suddenly jam on the brakes and decelerate from my current speed down below 55 MPH. This happens in less then 3 seconds. There is no one in front of me - it is a clear straightaway. If I step on the gas the car will speed up and I'll pass the truck. At that point the cruise control will operate normally - until I pass another truck. This doesn't happen all then time. Maybe 20%. It seems to happen with tall tractor trailers more then normal trucks. Aside from the sudden stopping issue, the real problem is that cars behind me see that I am stopping for no apparent reason and if they're not paying attention they'll run right into the back of my car. This has been a day 1 problem - I bought the car new in 2014. I am adding my complaint to others who have reported this same issue. Fords response - pay $3000 to have your car fixed. This is a safety issue and there ought to be a recall to get it fixed.
