Brake Disc Pads Problems of Ford Edge - part 1

I bought my car used from dealership when I was about to have my baby. SUV was fine up until a few months ago. I was driving and my break pedal was making a squeeking, squealing sound everytime my foot was on the pedal. No matter what it made that noise entire time while driving day in and out. The break pedal would either be very loose to the floor or either it would be so hard I could not push it down. Ive only had vehicle 5 yrs and just replaced breaks. Now I have to use both feet to push down on break pedal to stop. My child isn't safe so I drive slow everywhere now. Mechanic who did break pads said it was the booster going out. Said Ford has so many problems and issues happening with breaks/booster/master cylender. I am a single mom who does not have money for costly repairs like this. I just paid off in full this vehicle and now thinking I could have used that money now for this problem. My vehicle is only 9 yrs old. I need a miracle. This should be taken care of by Ford and a recall issued for break issues including booster and master cyinder.

While driving in the city was breaking to turn and the pedal compressed all the way to the floor. New rotators, brake pads and tires are on the vehicle and could have caused a major accident. Why has Ford not stepped up and made this recall? I'm scared to drive this vehicle or even put my family in it. Now it just sits parked.

91k miles and my brake pedal goes to the floor. Brake pads are 50%, no leaking or contaminated brake fluid. Does it in every driving condition, forward, reverse, and all speeds.

The brake pedal acts as if there is air in the line or the need to be bled. The brake pads are fairly new changed this year. The next stop starts the same then the pedal goes to the floor. The other issue is the engine oil pressure light comes on. The idle id effected by this and the engine nearly stalls.

Brake pads had been changed 8/19. Beginning 7/20, considerable effort was needed to engage the brakes. The pedal would be nearly to the floor before fully engaging. With the car in motion, we were concerned that we wouldn't stop in time. . The car was taken to our auto shop where the mechanic discovered there was a problem with the brake booster. He mentioned that ours was the third Edge he has worked on with this same problem.

When driving the vehicle and needing to break the break padel will go all the way to the floor and almost not stop. Had break pads changed but the mechanic states there is a issue with the break line having air in them that cant be released. The car can not be driven safely. Would like someone to call me.

For several months my brakes have gotten worse and worse. Brake pads were replaced, brakes adjusted and even flooring the brakes sometimes does not work. Car has hesitated and shut off at intersections. Rain has caused some hydroplaning. Car continues rolling with brake pedal pushed all the way down. I stopped the car at a traffic light, but the car continued to roll slowly and ran into the vehicle in front of me! help! no damage to either exterior, but I don't know what might happen next.

While braking, the brakes didn't not perform as expected. They were working fine, then it felt like I couldn't stop in time. I had to push the peddle all the way down to stop. It caught me off guard, and almost couldn't stop in time. There was a hissing noise from the petal afterwards. The condition existed until I stopped, parked the car, and waited several hours. Then the next time I drove it, no issues. I checked the brake system and determined. - no visible leaks - brake pads have plenty of life - brake fluid reservoir still full.

During a recent snow fall. I was driving down the road. When I went to stop the abs system activated due the the snowy road conditions. From them on the brake pedal has gone to the floor with out returning back to normal. I did have the brakes looked at and found out the pads and rotors are fine. The service department was not able to see any issues and told me I would have to take it to a Ford dealership to have the computer looked at. Because the repair shop does not have access to Ford software.

While driving over a bump in the road on a city street, the brakes stopped working. Brake pressure was lost and only by depressing the pedal to the floor could a small amount of braking power be applied. No warning lights appeared and no noises, hissing, ect were heard. The issue occurred three times in the same location in the span of a month. After two incidents, the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who suspected the brake booster may be failing. The mechanic could not confirm an issue with the braking system, but we elected to replace the brake booster as functional brakes are essential and a booster recall has occurred for this vehicle, although this VIN was not included in the recall. Within a few days of the repair, the exact issue occurred again in the same spot, so the booster replacement clearly did not resolve the issue. The vehicle has been well maintained with newly replaced pads and rotors and has approximately 75,000 miles. Once the vehicle was stopped, the brakes started working normally and continued working normally after the car was turned off and then back on again. The vehicle will be taken to our local Ford dealer shortly to attempt to diagnose the issue.

Booster brake defect. There is a recall but my VIN # is not on the list. It should be. I had my car towed to the dealership for repair. The brakes delayed stopping my car. I could not drive it. My car VIN should be added to the recall. I am going to have to pay for repair because it is not added to the recall list but the problem is there. I should not have to pay for this repair. If my VIN is added later, will I be reimbursed ? when I press the brake the pedal is hard. The vehicle slows but does not stop when it should. If you pump the brake it sounds like the rotors sound when brake pads are bad. The car pops and scrubs, jerks to a stop. When coming up to a stop sign or red light the car takes longer to stop so you have to brake sooner. I took to dealership, parts where ordered to repair. Still waiting to see if I have to pay!.

Brakes became spongy 2 1/2 weeks ago. Took to family mechanic. They were unable to recreate and stayed the brake pads are in great condition. Went on short vacation and the brakes continued to be spongy but not every time. When we returned home it began happening more frequently and a hissing sound began when applying brakes. Then yesterday morning the car shut off in the middle of a busy intersection but restarted after a few minutes. Took it into mechanic again and they were able to recreate both issues. After research they discovered a Ford extended warranty for this issue so I towed it to nearest Ford dealership. Now the garage is telling me it will cost between $800 and $1000 and my VIN is not covered. The info online states it should be covered. I pay my final car payment in 2 weeks and my additional warranty that I purchased ended in may. It seems this is a known issue and should be covered and most certainly should be recalled. It is not due to normal wear and tear. I have owned it brand new and after 7 years only have 30k miles on it. The vehicle is in great condition otherwise. Braking issues almost led to an accident the day before and it shut off with no warning or lights from the vehicle in the middle of an intersection. What if we had been on our road trip and going 80 miles an hour? this is a safety issue. The issue was recreated at the family mechanic in a parked position but for me it was operational.

I lost the break while driving at 20 miles , the break went to the floor. I change the breaks and pads and the breaks still incredible low. I call Ford customer service and they are not helpful at all this is a very sirius problem please do something.

My wife's 2011 Ford Edge brake pedal goes to floor when trying to stop. Problem is intermittent and brakes go back to working normal. This has happened multiple times with my wife driving and twice while I was driving. Brake booster was already replaced under recall. I don't think the booster is bad again. I think it is a abs issue. The brake pads are in good shape and the reservoir is full. I have read multiple complaints about this issue. Ford needs to tak responsibility and fix this before someone is injured or killed.

I was on 222 in kutztown PA it was rain the vechile in front of slammed on his brakes I in turn did the samething except their was no abs the brake pedal went all the way to the floor I had enough distance between me and the other the other carme to a stop the brakes were very spongy. The vechile was towed to a dealership. The dealership replaced the brake booster, the abs booster, rear brake pads and roaters. The brake pads and roators were new April 2017 and inspected in may 2018 they were fine. Only 13000 miles were put on the car since 2017. On the way home today the brakes went out again.

Brakes started becoming �loose�, would go all the way to floor with hissing sound. Vehicle would still stop ok. Mechanic checked because brake pads, rotors, etc were all fine. He said it was the pressure and he believed there to be a recall or extended warranty on the issue so he did not want to do. The brakes then started to become locked, it wouldn't go down at all and stopping was becoming an issue. Unless you pumped slowly and then it did the hiss and all the way to the floor. I called Ford dealership and they took VIN and said our vehicle wasn't included. I started doing research and learned that many folks are having the same issues and are being told the same thing. . . Not included. Many. Seems to me common sense would say that maybe the issue is bigger than we first realized. How many will be injured or killed ? and OH yes how many like us will have to spend hundreds of dollars on something Ford should take care of. Do the right thing and make Ford fix them all.

Brakes on my 2008 Ford Edge are making a hissing noise when depressed and do not stop the car unless I press the brakes all the way to the floor and even with that, the car does not stop completely, especially at high rates of speed. Took it to a mechanic to get new brake pads applied and was told it was the brake booster. I looked up a recall for the brake booster on this site only to find many complaints with the same problem but no recall.

Tl- the contact owns a 2012 Ford Edge. The contact stated that one side of the brake caliber emits more pressure than the other causing the brake pads and brake routers to wear over time. The contact had previously replaced these same parts twice before. The contact had taken the vehicle to an independent mechanic where they have been diagnosed and repaired prior to this more recent issue. The manufacturer had not been notified of the failure. The vehicle had not been repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 100,000. Jo.

From June 2018 to June 2019 I have invested over $4000 in primarily the braking sytem of my car. I continue to have issues when after filling my gas tank the car hesitates in starting. I have replaced everything that has to do with the breaking system from brake pads to hcu system to the abs system. Even the new parts have had to be replaced because they were faulty.

Brake pedal is soft, sometimes goes all the way to the floor and makes a hissing sound. Some break function is lost. We had new brake pads and rotors, and the problem persists. Our mechanic tells us that it is the brake booster. Safety is now a great concern as it is now compromised. Occurs when the vehicle is in motion, regardless of location on city street, highway, or turning.

While driving on a highway at aprox 50mph my car ran out of brakes completely. The car, a 2014 Edge, is around 56000miles with all services uptodated performed by a Ford dealer. In the latest service the change the rear brake pads.

All four rotors failed before the brake pads failed. The dealer says this is normal wear and tear. However the vehicle has been lightly used. It seems the brake rotors are made of defective materials subject to abnormal corrosion. Ford customer service refused to cover the parts under warranty. This is a safety issue that I will have to resolve and pay for.

Brake booster recall- I barely had this truck a year, and the brakes are giving me major problems. When I press the pedal. Its hard, and I have to almost stand up on it to stop the vehicle. I've had the pads and rotors replaced, and that's not the problem. I started doing research and found out that there is an issue with the brake booster.

Brake booster has failed, and now engine won't idle properly and stalls due to vacuum leak from the bad brake booster. I had reported symptoms (hissing, occasional hard pedal, etc. ) during service visits while my "bumper to bumper" warranty was still in effect, but was told it was "noise from the new brake pads" and it just needed the brake fluid topped off. Symptoms persisted, but then service bulletin 13n02 was announced, and because my car was manufactured 2 months before the dates covered in the service bulletin the dealership has still refused to cover the costs. So I now have a 2010 Edge that is not only hard to stop, but also now stalls out when it does stop!.

The brake pedal has a spongy feel and you can hear an audible "hissing" noise inside the car. The noise will go away as you apply different pressures to the brake pedal, but then will come back as soon as you maintain the same level of pressure. There is a know customer satisfaction program 13n02 (extended warranty for brake booster), and after reading the description and details of the program, the symptoms are identical. I called the dealer and after running the VIN number, I was told that my car did not qualify. I also know that it is not another brake component as the vehicle has brand new front and rear rotors, front and rear pads, and brand new brake fluid in the system. It is not very difficult to deduce that there's some type of vacuum leak (or air leak) when you hear hissing noises coming from the car. Vehicle is still driving, but problem continues to get worse and from what I've read on the internet, the brake booster will eventually fail and could cause a dangerous driving situation.

Brakes made a hissing sound when pressed and brake pedal went to the floor when pressed. When backing up there were hardly any brakes available to stop. Took it into a mechanic and they had to replace the power brake booster. This is not simply replacing the brake pads but this is a mechanical issue on a vehicle that is only 4 years old. Huge safety issue.

While driving the brake pedal began get hard and not depressing applying enough pressure the the brake pads. The harder you push the better they worked so determined the brake booster had failed. The problem was intermittent at first and then became regular. Called Ford service to find out they had extended the warranty on this part but did not do a recall. This is a dangerous part to have fail intermittently as it could go from needing a 100 feet to stop to 100 yards.

Takata recall we bought the 2013 Ford Edge new and within a week started to here noise in the brakes , we called the dealer an they said its probably because the car sits garage too much. So we put more miles on the car drove it more now at just over 22,000 miles the brakes started getting really noisy an became a bumping sound you could here while starting to step up the speed . We got scared to drive it so took it to my mechanic . They took apart the brakes and they pads and rotors were all shot and will cost me over $500 to fix . We called the dearler who said that it is out of warrentee.

The passenger side inside brake pad was worn down to the metal. The outside of the passenger brake pad and the driver side brake pads were almost like new. I've paid over $300 in parts and labor to have rotors and pads replaced. This incident will most likely happen again. The vehicle is not under warranty. There have been others who have complained about the same issue. This is a safety issue, but I'm not sure how much of a safety issue it is. Hopefully nothing happens during our daily commute.

When I press brake pedal is hard and the vehicle dont want stop and when I try to press pedal twice still didn't stop corectly , brake rotor and pads still like 80%.

Tl-the contact owns a 2012 Ford Edge. The contact stated while driving in reverse, the brake pedal was applied, but the vehicle hesitated to stop and the pedal went down to the floor. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic. The mechanic replaced all four brake pads, and machined the rotors. The failure recurred. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage 60,000. Mf.

I have been experiencing a hissing noise when depressing the brake. A few times, the brake has been difficult to depress when trying to stop the vehicle. Brake pads and rotors have been replaced an is not the problem.

A loud "hissing" noise can be heard when depressing the brake pedal. Brakes feel "spongey" and require considerable effort to bring the vehicle to a full stop. I took the car into tire kingdom for diagnosis and was told the rotors and brake pads on the front of the vehicle needed replaced. This was completed only to find it did not resolve the problem. The manager contacted Ford and was advised there is a recall on the power brake booster for the make, model, and year of my vehicle. I contacted Ford to schedule the repair and was told that my VIN is not part of the recall and the repair would not be covered. When I questioned further I was advised the recall only covers "some" of the cars assembled at the oakville plant with my make, model , and year and that they could not cover the replacement of this faulty equipment.

The brake fluid line on the rear brakes was not allowing brake fluid through therefore causing the rear brake pads to continually stay engaged. The outer rim of both rear rotors was completely charred and burnt red along with the surface of the rotor being completely worn and gouged. I was told by the repair shop that I was lucky they did not start a fire from running so hot. The rear rotors, pads and brake fluid lines all had to be replaced.

I was driving down the road and was coming to a stop sign by our local elementary school. The brakes felt like they were not working and that I was not going to stop! the only way I could get it to stop was to push very hard. Thank the good lord that I didn't have to stop on a dime for a child walking across the school! the brakes are still that way today and it is not safe at all to drive. We took it to our local shop to verify that the brakes pads were ok, which they were. We have an appointment for our local Ford shop. After reviewing many complaints, it sounds as though this is a known problem, (brake booster) and Ford needs to have a recall on this. We have already spend $75 having the shop look at the brake pads, and now it will probably cost us another $300-$400, which is not right for a vehicle that has less than 45,000 miles on it and is a 2012. Ntsa needs to contact Ford and make them recall this, as it sounds like there are so many out there with the same problem. This is a huge safety issue and someone can be killed over this! Ford needs to be held accountable over this! read more at. . . Read more...
