general problems of the 2016 Ford Edge

My vehicle previously had recall work, including power steering, but now I’m experiencing: * ‘steering assist required’ warning, and the electric power steering is intermittently failing * traction control and hill assist turned off * headlights (and other lights) staying on even when the car is off * the vehicle pulls sharply to the left when braking * despite multiple alignments and suspension/tie rod replacements, my new tires are wearing out rapidly.

Severe constant moisture condensation build up inside rear light bar and rear side lights. The moisture is inside all clear plastic covers and some of the red inner plastic (which is underneath the clear plastic cover). It is available for inspection. This is causing a safety hazard due to reduced and dim light visibility. The constant moisture causes an increased risk of break lighting shortage, failure of lighting electrical system or the lights shutting off. With the reduced rear lighting visibility and risk possibility of rear lighting failure there is an increased risk of a crash. The dealer, I purchased the vehicle used from, tried taking it apart and drying the moisture but it came right back the next day. The vehicle has been seen at an auto garage. It is unkown if there has been warning lights or signals since I recently purchased it from the dealer who had it one month prior.

Prior to taking delivery of this car (new, March 2017) the selling dealer replaced the tail/back-up light assembly on the tailgate because it had moisture in it. After I had the car for about 3 months the moisture came back and I called the dealer. They said it was a know problem and they would get back to me when they had the part to fix it. They never called me and I forgot about the problem. In October 2024, a neighbor told me my right back-up light was out. A couple of weeks later I went to my mechanic to have the bulb replaced. He told me that both back-up lights were out and they were non-replaceable leds. The entire light assembly must be replaced before I can get a state inspection sticker. The list price of the unit from Ford (only available from Ford no aftermarket part made) is $1,257. 57. The car only has 48,206 miles on it. I think the leds shorted out because of the moisture. I called Ford, they said there was nothing they could do for me. I don't believe I am the only person to have this problem. I think Ford should do something because it is a problem they knew about since day one.

A manufacture defect in the brake light housing cracks and causes water inside the light housing causing the light to be dim, eventually short out, and also flicker and shut off & on occasion. The end result is no brake lights or sometimes working depending on the water damage from the manufacture defect of the light housing plastic.

Cars only at 43k miles and constantly stalls. Takes 10 minutes to start. Gas tank makes weird vibrating noise and my gas mileage on full tank will go from 330 to e to 160 to e in 15 seconds. My windows randomly dont work, my lights dim and car just shuts off while driving and the stereo cuts out and looses half power like volume was turned down even tho it wasnt,and the dealership is trying to charge me to fix these issues and im hoping Ford rectified this with having to pursue this. Me and my family including infants and my pregnant wife use this car daily and I depend on it to get myself to work as an essential employee in nursing we need pur vehicle to be dependable and it has been anything but. For dates this happens its multiple times a week and has been happening since after putting only 3k mileage on the car I bought it at 21k miles its 43k amd this issue is becoming a serious inconvenience and safety concern. Im annoyed because I took out a loan to buy this vehicle and still owe 28k on it so if this car dies im screwed with getting ro my job and even making more loney to pay this off to even get another vehicle.

The "decorative" piece on the rear liftgate that has the reverse lights is severely condensation and fills with water, which will eventually short out the reverse lights causing a safety hazard and the local dealer fucillo Ford will not repair or replace this unit wants to charge me 1300. 00 to repair and I had complained three times about it while the vehicle was under the warranty. I do not have photos of this next rainstorm I will secure some and forward on.

Tl- the contact owns a 2016 Ford Edge. The contact stated that water would collect inside the entire rear reflector panel light surrounding the license plate. The water would cause the lights to short without warning. The vehicle was taken to davidson Ford of clay 3690 NY-31, liverpool, NY 13090 315-860-0096 where the lights was replaced. The manufacturer had been notified of the failure and was referred to NHTSA to file a complaint. The failure mileage was unknown. Jo.

The driving lights illuminate the roads poorly and I've had them adjusted twice in order to improve night driving visibility. Also, the driver's door doesn't latch reliably and I've had it adjust ed twice and now the door whistles. The door ajar light signals the door isn't properly shut. There is poor coordination between the keyless fob and the door unlocking both of these problems are ongoing.
