My vehicle Ford Edge model 2008, lost control as well as speed when the wrench light came to the dashboard, immediately after the airbag light lit up, I had little or no engine power to engage gear to keep up with traffic speed. My speed dropped to 40 miles or less per hour. Very dangerous situation because at that moment the odometer lighting also went off. Driving on a highway at night no one drives below 40 miles per hour, made the situation pretty grave and dangerous. The problem comes from the power train faulty sensors near the transmission need to be replaced costing over $800,00, as for the airbag I haven't received a invoice yet.
Takata recall. . My front passenger side air bag is half way out my indicator on my dashboard stay on cause of it and it was said that it can deploy at anytime so my kids and sometimes friend's and/or husband have to ride in the back cause they're afraid of the airbag might deploy. We tried to push the rubber seal back over it but its no use. I inclosed some pictures of the truck. Can not say when it really happened.
I was driving down the highway when my speedometer and odometer stopped working. Then it told me I had a error and a fault in my tire pressure system. My airbag light came on, indicating that it was off. I pulled over and turned off the vehicle. When I started it back up all the error messages cleared, but when I went to put my car into drive it sounded as if the transmission had dropped. I tried driving only to rev the engine up to 3000 rpm with barely any movement. When ever shifting from drive or reverse it made that loud popping noise. I took it to a dealership to be told it stopped doing it but they didn't fix it. They made no repairs. They are letting me pick the car up and drive it again with out any actual resolution, but they did charge me money to "look at the car". Do people actually have to die for someone to issue a recall? I am reading thousands of reviews about the Edge that experience's the same problems. Lets issue a recall and develop some accountability!.
Vehicle was taken to power Ford in valencia for standard service a week ago. 41,000 miles new tires bought- was told all was ok. One week later I am driving when suddenly speedometer stops and milegage is reading --- grinding nois then a wrench icon aoppears which means the powertrain is malfunctiong, then the air bag light went on and then an ! icon which means there is a problem with tires. Terrified, I called power Ford and told ot bring it in. . . I was less than a half a mile away, and put on my hazard lights and barely made it th e few clocks to the dealership. This si a haunting problem that I have read at least a dozen comments about the power train. Had I been ion teh freeway I dont think I would be alive. Please investigate this issue with the Ford Edge. I di not know the outcome at all. Thank you.
