Made a turn off interstate into a busy road, my vehicle jerked and lost its ability to accelerate. Leaving me in a very dangerous situation with cars flying around me to avoid hitting me. I managed to make it into a parking lot. I had a friend check the vehicle and with the hood up he had me put in reverse and it looked like the motor was going to jump out of the vehicle, same happened in drive. He put his computer on and a code for the drive speed sensor was present. The code was cleared and then noticed the speed and rpm gauges were inaccurate. This happens on occasion. Upon research I see this sensor has a recall on it but not for my year 08 Edge. Please recall ASAP. This can cause some seriously bad accident when your vehicle looses its ability to accelerate when in traffic. I fear this will happen and my life is in the line. Ford is aware there is a apparent problem noted by other year make model recalls. Note: this is the original complaint. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Today the same has happened again, I was greeted by horns blowing and aggressive drivers but was unable to do anything but coast to the next intersection to turn off. Nhtsa pleasw do something if possible. This output drive speed sensor is going to get someone killed soon. There are numerous complaints throughout this feed under scattered categories mainly because most do not know what the problem is and dealers cant figure out if the vehicle doesn't throw up a code. I had mine checked when the warning light was on so I would know the issue. Unfortunately the dealer couldn't help because we cleared the code. I checked into geeting this fixed but according to the dealer the part is unavailable, and the labor would be absurd if they had to replace. Please help!.
