Here we are years later and still the same issues. . . . Loss of power without warning, shuts off with no warning. Bangs when shifting, very rough shifting. Feels like its in 1st gear and then shifts roughly into gear, or I have to stop shut it off and start again. I see alot of the same complaint and no recall? its gettin stupid now! this should be recalled, it is a safety issue!.
I purchased this car within the past month from a used car dealership with 78,000 miles on it. This past weekend, I was pulling into a parking lot and the engine shut off while trying to park my car. Luckily there wasn't any traffic behind me but if this would have happened while cars were behind me, I probably would have gotten into a severe accident.
Investigation subject : electronic throttle body malfunction NHTSA action number: pe13003 must include 2008 Ford Edge to recall list!! had a very close call. Vehicle shut off while making turn with on coming traffic. Dealer says there is nothing they can do because this model is not included in the recall of the defective throttle bodies! there are way too many Ford Edge owners with this problem to be ignored in this recall. Thank you !.
