The first time was on Jan 14, 2012. The switch under the brake pedal went out, left me stranded. Now the brake booster is bad. With no warning, the brakes got rock hard and then go to the floor after awhile with a whistling noise. It takes alot of effort to stop vehicle. I came extremely close to crashing . I took my vehicle to the dealer and they told me that the booster was bad. . I am very unhappy that Ford don't see this as a problem that should to be recalled. My wife loves her Edge, but im afraid that something may happen to my wife and 2 year little girl while driving.
The first time was in Feb. 2010 the switch under the brake pedal went out, left me stranded. Now the brake booster is going bad. No warning, the brakes get rock hard and then go to the floor with a horrible whistling noise. You may or may not stop. Dont do any sudden stops you will crash. I am very unhappy that Ford dont see this as a problem that needs to be recalled. Love the car looks and rides, but wont buy another due to the saftey issues.
