Automatic Transmission Control Module problems of the 2007 Ford Edge

The contact owns a 2007 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while driving at 30-40 mph, the vehicle inadvertently stalled with the check engine warning light illuminated. The contact veered to the side of the road. The contact was able to restart the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the independent mechanic who diagnosed that the pcm had failed and damaged the coil. The dealer was notified of the failure and advised the contact to take the vehicle in for diagnosis. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and advised the contact that they could not assist since the VIN was not included in a recall related to the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 120,000.

Tl the contact owns a 2007 Ford Edge. While driving 50 mph, the vehicle lost power. The vehicle was restarted and began bucking. In addition, the check engine indicator was illuminated.

The contact owns a 2007 Ford Edge. The contact stated that the vehicle experienced severe vibration and hesitation. The contact also noticed that coils were melted in the engine compartment. The vehicle was taken to pittsville Ford (34690 old ocean city road, pittsville, MD) where it was diagnosed that the pcm was defective and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired.

My wife was driving with our two children on our road (a busy one) and the engine just stopped. She had to pull over with cars zooming by her and shut off the car and turned it back on. Engine light was flashing, go to find out the coils and pcm just went out. Looked online and a lot of people have the same problem.

Ford dealer has my 2007 Ford Edge due to it stalling out while driving 60 mph on a highway causing my engine to die so I had to get towed home and off of the highway. The dealer originally thought it was the electronic throttle body but they have now determined that was not the problem. Instead it is the pcm which is costing me over $1500, if that even fixes this. Plus I have been paying for a rental car because the dealers don't have free loaner vehicles. So this whole thing is going to cost me about $2000. Now I have been researching this problem, and can clearly tell this is not normal wear and tear instead it is a faulty part that so many other owners are experiencing. I clearly see Ford has been made aware of this problem and they should be taking responsibility for their mistake. Ford has refused to issue a recall on this problem even though it is very dangerous and costly for the vehicle owner. I have never owned a Ford before and likely will not again because of this bad experience.

I was driving down the interstate when I suddenly lost power. I managed to somehow get my car off the road and exit the highway (I was just about to the exit when this happened). It was looked at by a Ford dealer who said the pcm died and took out at least three coil packs. Told me if I drove it any further it would likely catch fire. Up to this point I hadn't had any problems with this car. It was running fine. This all happened so quickly and in such a dangerous location that it could have caused an accident. Upon researching places to fix the issue, I noticed a rather large amount of complaints about this same issue and this same make model and car year. Each complaint said this happened on the freeway.

The contact owns a 2007 Ford Edge. While driving 60 mph, the pcm malfunctioned and the vehicle stalled without warning. The vehicle was taken to be repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 180,000. The VIN was not available.

The contact owns a 2007 Ford Edge. While driving 50 mph, the vehicle lost power and was towed to an independent mechanic. It was diagnosed that the ignition coil needed to be replaced due to being overheated by the pcm computer. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 37,700.

I was traveling around 40 mph on a state highway when sputtering and vibration issues started with 2007 Ford Edge and check engine light came on. Still drove vehicle to my mechanic which stated coil burned out and sent surge of power to the pcm. Mechanic stated design of pcm wouldn't stop the firing of coil and not to drive vehicle any further or it will burn to the ground. Mechanic stated only the Ford dealership can install a new one and rest the car to get it running. Towed vehicle to Ford dealership who stated they have a TSB issued for this problem and they will need to replace the pcm and all 6 coils because they have all melted. Ford dealership stated this was an on going problem due to a faulty design of the pcm that when a coil burns out (common wear and tear and $100 to $200 fix) the pcm doesn't stop firing to the coils which could cause the car to catch fire. Estimate to fix the pcm and all six coils was $2,958. Reason for complaint - I understand wear and tear on a vehicle, but due to a design issue in the Ford/Mercury/Lincoln pcm, it caused extensive damage and repair to the car and potential to burn to the ground. $100 fix with proper design and now $2,958 due to pcm issue. I am requesting this issue to be reviewed for reimbursement by the manufacturer or recall issued. Thanks you for your time.

I have a 2007 Ford Edge. My wife was drive and with no warning or notification the car started shaking, sputtering, and lost all power. The shop I took it to says the pcm and 3 ignition coils need to be replaced. I have found online hundreds of people with the same problem on the same car. I contacted Ford about a recall and was told it is my problem. I have always been a Ford man, I have owned 7 but now will never buy one a again.

I have a 2007 Ford Edge with very low mileage to date. This is usually my family car, driven by my wife. We live in guatemala and drove to a house on the beach, that is about 100 miles away. On January first when we were returning I started the car and noticed a shake and sputter, and I thought that it was probably a defictive spark plug. I managed to drive out of where we were and as soon as we got to the main highway I had to stop and call for a tow. The shaking and sputtering were frightening. The shop I took it to says that at least 3 ignition coils need to be replaced and are not sure if the pcm also has to be replaced. Unfortunately, since there are parts stock problem here, I had to wait almost a month to get the parts and now that I have them (the coils) I still have to wait to see what the real problem is. I have contacted the dealer in the region to see what can be done. I had to report this as it is not a unique problem tobuyers in the us, also abroad.

I filed the original complaint (10680995) on February 3rd, but I wanted to edit or update it, but couldnâ´t find the way, so I am taking the liberty to post a new one. It has been 2 and a half months since the incident and as a disgrace it has not been possible for the Ford dealer in central America to get the computer module part. Can you imagine this amount of time without your vehicle, specially if it is your working tool? the following was my statement in the first report: "I have a 2007 Ford Edge with very low mileage to date. This is usually my family car, driven by my wife. We live in guatemala and drove to a house on the beach, that is about 100 miles away.

So far, I do not know when the part will be available. Last Friday it was still in cackorder in the Ford plant, or so they say. I donâ´t know either how much is going to cost, but at this rate I just want to get rid of that piece of junk. I have provided a florida contact as there is no access to other countries.

On or around 11/29/2014 I was driving my family in our 2007 Ford Edge on the freeway, traveling approx. 70 mph, when the system display read somthing referring to o/d transmission message of some sort. I lost drive train power and coasted to an exit ramp while the vehicle struggle to maintain drive. A short time later I was able to park in a parking lot, and when I shifted the lever into park it passed by reverse and shifted violently. I tried to shifht to drive with the same result. I contacted avis Ford where we purchased the vehicle, told them what happened, and they informed me that thier service center was backed up on transmission repars for a recall till February 2015! I found atransmission shop who, ran a diagnostic check, and drove my vehicle with me in it, and said there wasn't anything he could see. I called my salesman, he tried to see what he could do. He later informed me if I could somehow get the vehicle home, to unhook the battery, wait for an hour, and hook it back up that this would reset the pcm module, and maybe correct the issue. It appeared to remedy the symptom, until today when my wife arrived at her office, and as she was pulling in to park the same message appeared, with the same symptoms. Unfortunately this is our only vehicle, and I'll have to wait and see what to do next. I have contacted my dealer. I also calle Ford motor CO. 's customer service today to see if there were any recalls for these symptoms, and the representative stated that there were none for that. But did give me a recall on gas tank straps, and a case #cas-5879019.

I was driving my vehicle and noticed it jerking and hesitating to accelerate. The engine light became blinking rapidly and I noticed a burning smell. I took my car to a shop, who stated that one of the coils had melted and cracked. They replaced the coils and all spark plugs. Picked my vehicle up and still had the same issues, constant jerking, engine light still on, and still not wanting to accelerate. Took vehicle back the following day, shop stated the pcm was bad and needed to be replaced. I then contacted a local Ford dealership, who claimed they had never heard of this issue, and I would need to pay for them to run their own diagnostics on it, even though I was well aware of what was wrong with it. As of right now the car is still not fixed, and runs horribly. I refuse to spend anymore money on a problem that Ford is well aware of!!!.

My vehicle all of a sudden started to slow down suddenly like I had taken my foot off the gas. It started shuddering and my transmission light came on. I thought it was the transmission so I had it towed to the shop. After diagnosis, it showed my cylinders were misfiring. It was due to a bad coil which was causing the spark plugs to read at an extremely high voltage. They needed to replace all coils and all spark plugs. Then found out that it fried my pcm(computer) which also had to be replaced. Come to find out, this is a know issue with the 2007 Ford Edge and there is a TSB on it for this exact situation. The dealership told me that the pcm had a malfunction which caused the coils/spark plugs to go bad. They also said the pcm has a manufacturer 8 year/80,000 mile warranty. Well I was at 7 years/83000 miles and when they submitted the warranty claim, Ford denied it forcing me to pay $2400 for the repairs. I think this is ridiculous to deny a known malfunction for only 3000 miles over. What if I had been on the highway when my vehicle suddenly came to a stop? I had my son with me that day and this could have caused a major accident, possibly involving other drivers, and we may have even been injured. And Ford doesn't feel responsible to help with the cost of this repair??.

While driving approximately 60 mph, the vehicle shuttered and there was a loss of acceleration power. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an automotive repair shop where it was diagnosed that the 6 ignition coils, spark plugs and the pcm system needed to be replaced. The current mileage is 97395.

The contact owns a 2007 Ford Edge. The contact stated that a burning plastic odor was emitted from under the hood area. The contact took the vehicle to the dealer and was told that the power train control module (pcm) was causing the coils that lead to the transmission to overheat and catch on fire. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure and the current mileages were 115,000.

Ok, enough is enough. I have a 2007 Ford Edge and it is having hard engagement issues when shifting gears. Also, a couple of times I have been ready to pull out into traffic and it's as if my car is sitting in neutral. I have to put the car in park, turn it off, start and put back into drive for it to start going again. Very unsafe and worries me driving my kids around in the car with these problems. I have taken my car to the dealership on a couple of occasions with these problems and was told that the diagnostic test was not "throwing a code" so basically there is not a fix. They do however acknowledge that there are a lot of these complaints and a definite issue but they could do nothing unless a recall was done. It's getting worse and the other day I took somewhere else and was told Ford has an update now to help some of the issues pcm update to the computer. Guess what. . . It didn't help mine and they said I for sure now have some transmission problems due to the hard shifting problems I have been experiencing. Well, no kidding! ok, when you have your dealerships telling you they know there is a problem but they can't do anything about it, that's just crazy. We need for there to be some awareness and action to these problems.
