The front driver seat belt has been fraying to the point that there’s only about 1/2” of belt left to hold it together. It’s frayed above the buckle so if I was to hit anything & depending on the belt to save my life I’m screwed bc it’ll just snap. I’ve contacted Ford who refuses to replace it under warranty bc it’s been over 6yrs which is wrong bc it is a genuine Ford motor craft part and peoples safety and lives depend on the seatbelt to save lives. It shouldn’t only be under warranty for a limited amount of time if it’s an original Ford part. So bc Ford has discontinued all parts and belts for the front driver’s side I can’t find a replacement for under $200! so this is deadly and I’m not sure what led to this level of fraying other than the mechanical device it winds up in. I always wear my belt and never has it been in the door or anything so I’m not sure what caused this horrible problem but it’s even worse Ford refuses to replace it. I drive a 2010 Edge se fwd it has only 88k miles and has barely been driven and one owner. I’ve looked online and seen that a lot of Fords have had recalled seat belts. I believe this needs to be a recall especially considering all the front driver’s seat belts on Ford have been discontinued and they don’t offer any other brand of replacement. How can they expect to ensure the safety of the driver of the car if they don’t have a lifetime replacement warranty on the actual belt itself or even offer a replacement for a decent price or a replacement at all for that matter considering all have been discontinued that tells me they weren’t that secure to begin with if they aren’t even available.
Driver seat rocks back when accelerating.
Takata recall - the 2010 Ford Edge has a flaw with the seat track. The vehicle seat track appears to be stretched open over prolonged use and begins to rock back and forth with accelerating and braking. This concern is the seat track may stretch to a point where it will separate from base and track in a motor vehicle crash. I've also discovered through on line checks that this is a common problem with Ford Edge, explorer and several other vehicles Ford manufactures.
Tl-the contact owns a 2010 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while driving at 40 mph, the brake pedal was depressed and the seat independently moved forward. The vehicle was taken to a dealer who diagnosed that the seat track needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 55,000. Oo.
When using brakes the drivers seat will rock forward. When accelerating the drivers seat will rock back.
