general problems of the 2014 Ford Edge - part 2

Driving my vehicle in traffic and it displayed a wrench symbol and start shaking lost power, had to drift to the side of the road in traffic. I had it towed to the dealer same day after 3 hours of being on side of the road they said it was the oil cap had came off, but you could not go but 20 mph. Would like to know whys hasn't anyone issued an recall on this year model. To cover the cost of this issue, could have lost my life. Please consider issuing a full recall.

Driver "door ajar" light remains on. Doors will not lock while car is in drive. Warning lights such as "engine on" and "transmission not in park" are also posted. Warning lights reappear when vehicle comes to a stop. Silence warnings by pushing the ok button on the left of the steering wheel. Dome lights remain on when car is parked. Problem seems to be intermittent. Seems to be related to the locking mechanism or switch on the door.

Door ajar / transmission not in park sensor is not working properly. Unsafe condition not knowing if door lock system is working properly. Have to stop numerous time while driving to check if door is actually closed and locked. Also will not allow interior lights to go off, and is safety issue when trying to drive at night. Extremely difficult to see due to lost of night vision. Ford motor knows of the issues for years but refuses to correct issue via a recall. The vehicle only has 31,000 miles on it.

The back up camera image flipped upside down about five years ago. It will occasionally flip right side up for short while, but then flips back. I recently found online that I'm not alone, and that this seems to be a common problem among Ford Edge owners. Also, I see where there was a recall of 2020 and 2021 Ford Edges with similar back up camera issues. It seems that the problem existed prior to those years already. Is there any chance that the this problem be acknowledged by Ford to me, an earlier and current owner ?.

Advancetraclight continues to stay on.

We are experiencing high levels of exhaust gases inside the passenger cabin of a 2014 Ford Edge. The exhaust fumes are noticeable when idling for extended periods and are most pronounced when accelerating at highway speed. Exhaust gases can reach high levels so uncomfortable that windows must be rolled down to flush the passenger cabin. This condition has been reported to a Ford service department which indicated that a method of repair exists but no manufacturer recall has been issued to date. The condition is similar to that in the Ford explorer that resulted in repairs to law enforcement vehicles.

"door ajar" alert stays on even though the door is fully shut. The alarm will keep going off while driving. It therefore leaves the interior dome lights on which can lead to the battery draining over night. Unable to lock the doors when the vehicle is in motion. Safety issue if you have kids or for a woman driving alone. The key fob won't be able to lock the doors when you leave the car parked.

On Saturday oct. 6 at approx. 9 p. M. With mild weather/temp. At 70 mph on left lane of highway in a construction zone with no emergency shoulder, wrench symbol appeared and it would not keep up to speed. Because of the sudden slow down, we were almost hit several times trying to get to the right. The speed dropped suddenly. Limped it along to what we "thought was a safe exit" and called state police. While waiting I kept the car on with hazard lights. Then two vehicles appeared tried to block us in and we believe rob us. I was able to hit the gas and get 1/4 mile before it did it again. Would not move, chugged and cut off. The suspicious people took off but it was terrifying to be so vulnerable and not be able to get away. It was towed by state police to closest dealer of the auto group we purchased from as a certified pre-owned vehicle. After reading online that this has happened to many, many people and how dangerous it is, I wanted to report it. This issue is going to kill people. It is the throttle body. The forums are loaded with people that faced this sudden dangerous situation.

Panoramic sunroof shattered while driving on a clear day on an open road.

Throttle body!!! I was driving down a very busy back road with a number of sharp turns throughout when a yellow wrench appeared on my dashboard and the car went into a full and immediate "limp mode. " my car initiated limp mode on a very sharp turn with an inclining hill and I had nowhere to pull off to address the problem. I was finally able to restart my car and drove approximately 10 miles to work and my car would again go into "limp mode" 4 additional times throughout the duration of this trip. I'm lucky I wasn't killed. Please recall before someone gets seriously hurt or killed!.

Door ajar light stays on even when door closed causing bell to chime car is not in park. Took to dealership - they changed the latch. I rolled my window down on the way home and window would not roll back up. They said the cable just happened to break. Had to pay for that as well.

While driving on busy road the vehicle went on limp mode,almost had rear end collision. !this is the second time this has happened.

2 issues: 1. Door latch sending signal that the car door is not closed. Takes multiple times of closing the door for the door ajar message to go away. Many Ford Edge owners modifying their vehicles in unsafe to get around this problem. Ford wants $600+ to fix. 2. The vista moon roof. The roof does not open and close properly. Many Ford Edge owners with this issue. Ford wants $3000 to fix this. People who have had it fixed had the problem return after a year. Please help.

My sun roof exploded for no reason while I was driving the car on the highway.

Vehicle was being driven and without any warning went into a �limp home mode�, which is a total loss of acceleration, that is only enough power to give the driver speed between 35-40 mph. If on a freeway in the fast lane this would place a driver in a unsafe situation. Ford motor CO . States there is no recall, but back in 2015 there was a customer satisfaction program where they corrected this problem at no charge to the customer.

When I purchased my 2014 Ford Edge sel from north central Ford, I informed the dealership that the backup camera consistently displayed the error message: “camera is unavailable, please contact your dealership. ” this occurred every time the vehicle was placed in reverse. Additionally, the sync display would become unresponsive, disabling access to the phone, climate control, radio, and other settings. The dealership refused to fix the issue and instead offered to replace the entire sync system with an upgrade costing around $800. This issue has persisted since purchase in January 2018. The Ford Edge has significant blind spots, and the backup camera is essential for safe reversing. I recently discovered that Ford issued a recall for similar issues, but my model is not included—even though it clearly suffers from the same defect. I request that the 2014 Ford Edge sel be included in the recall to address this safety-critical issue.

Right front axle failure warning of transmission not in park.

Driver side front door ajar sensor failure. Sensor reads door ajar when door is closed that which keeps interior lighting on, dash alarm/warning stays on and drains the battery and could potentially leave you stranded. Found many people with this same issue on the same door, other door or multiple doors on the internet and many youtube videos showing this failure with most Ford SUV style vehicles in this model and year range. Called several mechanics and was quoted $400 + dollars to replace sensor with same version sensor that which will soon fail again according to mechanics and others that have replaced the sensor from internet and youtube source.

When I put the vehicle in park it displays the "transmission not in park" light. When this displays you cannot lock doors properly. The only way to adjust this is to either tap the gear shift button for standard drive or restart and kill the car. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.

Panoramic moonroof just shattered sitting still. Nothing hit it and car was not moving. Was on a residential street and owner was standing right by the vehicle.

After closing the passenger's side front door, the rear window exploded/shattered.

Edge's "door ajar" warning light remains on, even when the doors are closed and latched. While it's certainly annoying to be confronted with a stubborn warning on an instrument cluster, NHTSA also points out that, as long as the light is illuminated, there's no way for drivers to know for sure that the vehicle's doors are properly closed. As a result, owners may spend a great deal of time checking and re-checking to ensure that the Edge's doors are really, truly latched. Over time, owners may become so accustomed to seeing the warning light crying wolf that they begin to ignore it--which could, of course, cause problems if a door truly isn't closed. . Read more...

On July 31, 2017 in my 2014 Ford Edge I slowed down to turn right into a parking space at an elementary school, and all of a sudden the car took flight over the curb and sped into the woods. Scared and shaken I was trapped in the car with trees blocking the front doors. I was able to get out of the car by climbing into the backseat where I was able to open the door. The car was not drivable and had to be towed. This acceleration is very scary and I will not feel comfortable driving this car again! what if children would have been in the way?.

The a/c system does not respond to temperature control. It stays ice cold. The suspension squawks and clanks when brakes are applied and the steering wheel turns.

The driver door ajar light will not turn off when door is closed. This also causes the dome lights to stay on and trigger the alarm system occasionally. This is the second time it is happening, the first being 1. 5 years ago where Ford did clean the sensors and fixed the problem until now. Last month the problem started reocurring.

When putting vehicle in park it won't go in most of the time we have to restart vehicle and take it from park to another gear sometimes 5-6 times before park will engage and sometimes we can just press and release button on shifter to get it to engage park. We have even had a problem with trying to use remote start after it's in park and it won't start due to it saying that transmissions not in park but it was when we exited the vehicle.

My car has been at Ford service for the past 7 days waiting for parts. This is the second time it's been in for service in the past month. I initially reported exhaust smell in the cabin coming from the air vents. There was a problem with the shifter which they replaced but they told me they couldn't detect the smell or a cause for any smell. I took the car back last week when the exhaust/rotten egg odor continued and the car was making a low drone noise and faltering on acceleration. I was just told this Monday (two days ago) that the exhaust smell is part of the problem being reported on the news. I was not aware of what was on the news at all. My car is a 2014 Edge.

Carbon monoxide coming through heater system into the cab of the vehicle.

I parked my car on my driveway and took the key out of the ignition. I step out of the car and was playing with my daughter by the side of the car. My car started rolling down the driveway. I opened the door and saw the car came out of gear. I reached in and shifted back to park. Car continued to roll down driveway. I tried stopping it by trying to jump in but car continue to roll almost pinning me. I jumped out and car hit my neighbors car. The whole time this was happening I had the key in my hand. Reported it Ford and bought it to the dealer to be inspected. They couldn't find a problem. Ford mc nor the Ford dealer want to take responsibility. Nor can they find a problem with my car.

Car hesitates 4 or 5 seconds when going from reverse to drive when increasing speed on highway to change lanes or after coasting then try to accelerate Ford says tough live with it tried several times to have it repaired they say cant be done.

Smell exhaust gas inside the car while driving on highway.

Rear hatch window burst.

Issue started late last year, door ajar warning light/audio warning comes on even though the door is completely closed. Doesn't allow the door to lock while driving and the audio warner consistently comes on during the drive. The warning comes on immediately once the car is started and the warning continues when the car comes to a stop and when it begins to accelerate. We've taken the car while it was under warrantly to have the problem addressed. The dealer looked at it and communicated that they've had this issue before. The problem was resolved but now it's back again after maybe 4 months.

My horn does not work neither on the collium or when I lock the doors with remote to alert me that it is locked.

This problem has been confirmed to exist in both a 2011 and a 2014 Ford Edge. With a passenger weighting 72-75 lbs in the front passenger seat, the air bag turns on and off depending on how the passenger is sitting on the seat. This same passenger has traveled almost 50,000 miles in a 2011 mustang which has a similar sensor system and has never had the air bag turn on. We are able to reproduce this problem at will. This information suggests a problem in the Ford Edge with the software that monitors the front passenger seat sensors and determines when to turn on the front passenger air bag. This was reported to Ford on 07/22 and we checked on it on 09/23 and there was no update, indicating that they have not taken any action on this.
