Brake Hoses, Lines/piping, And Fittings Problems of Ford Edge - part 2

11/2018 - while parked in my driveway I pressed brake to start car, car jerked and pedal went to the floor. I pumped brakes and they seemed to be okay. Started driving and pedal went to the floor again when I was braking. Was only able to stop by pumping brakes. Dealer stated that a front brake line ruptured and repaired the line. Vehicle was 2 years old. With under 36,000 miles on 1/27/2020 while driving on a city street, I pressed the brake pedal and heard a loud bang and the pedal went to the floor. I tried pumping the brakes and heard another bang with the pedal going to the floor again. I was down the street from my home so I was able to get the car home and call a tow truck. I had it towed to a private mechanic who stated that both front brake lines had ruptured.

Tl- the contact owns a 2016 Ford Edge. The contact stated that the brake line blow, while driving depressing the brake pedal to the floor, the brake failed.

Was driving home from work when I realized my brake had decompressed and went all the way to the floorboard. Got home and my husband noticed I had brake fluid all over underneath my vehicle. My left passenger side brake line burst while driving, causing the brake pedal to depress all the way to floor and making the vehicle extremely difficult to stop (by the time I made it home it was hardly stopping at all). Ford would not use my warranty to replace they said I hit something. On (12/20/2019) driving home from work this time the front passenger brake line seems to have burst. (again while applying the brake this time at a stop light on a city street) and again causing the pedal to go all the way to the floor and making the car extremely difficult to stop. This is a hazardous situation and very concerning that it has occurred to with my brake lines twice within the past year, and all while the car was only 3 years old and had only 45,000 miles. This is a problem I believe Ford needs to address, from what I have gathered online this is an issue quite a few others have faced.

Right front brake line failed resulting in reduced braking and the pedal going to the floor.

Front driver side brake line burst while driving (applying the brake during a turn on a city street), within the last 6 months, causing the brake pedal to depress all the way to floor and making the vehicle extremely difficult to stop (by the time I made it home it was hardly stopping at all). Ford replaced the line and said it had just "worn out" (though the car was just over 2 years old at the time and had under 24000 miles). Today (08/27/2019) the other front brake line seems to have burst (passenger side) again while driving (again while applying the brake this time at a stop light on a city street) and again causing the pedal to go all the way to the floor and making the car extremely difficult to stop. This is a hazardous situation and very concerning that it has occurred to both front brake lines within the past year, and all while the car is under 3 years old and under 36,000 miles. I am having it towed to Ford today, and no doubt they will say the same thing, and we will stuck with a vehicle waiting for another brake line to burst in the near future. . Read more...

The front brakes are extremely touchy, periodically when coming to a stop. When you just immediately touch the brakes it low-speed the car comes to a jerking stop. I read online there is a recall due to some improper software being installed during the timeframe my car was manufactured. I would think this could absolutely contribute to the problem. Ever since I purchased a vehicle I've complained to the dealer and they told me there's no problem. I am a professional driver, I drive for work I've driven over 2,000,000 miles in my life and I know what I'm having brake issues. I went to the dealer about the online notification and they told me the only recall is for brake hoses and they have nothing for anti-lock software issues. Could somebody please clear this up for me as I can't even use this vehicle to teach my daughters how to drive because the brakes are so unpredictably touchy. Meeting sometimes they're fine and other times they are not, usually when you least expect it. Thank you.

Backing down driveway in reverse the brakes failed to function properly. I had to stand on them (push with all my leg strength) and then all of a sudden they were working with the power assist. Thankfully no one was coming down the street at the time. I'm certain this is a design or manufacturing flaw. It was similar to the time I broke a brake line and only had the rear drum brakes working and had to use the emergency brake to stop. To me the brakes are mission critical for safety and if Ford won't admit it and have a recall then the ntsb must step in. This thread is loaded with similar complaints and something needs to be rectified before some one is killed.

I had my front and back brake pads changed, they bled the line and I noticed that the brakes were extremely soft - pedal went all the way to the floor. Had the line rebled and same thing. Took it in to my mechanic and the power brake booster had gone out. Called dealership and they had none in stock and they were on back order - only 3 dealerships in houston area had one. Found one at a dealership on the other side of town, bought it and had the mechanic install it, rebleed the brake line. Now the pedal would be stiff and hard to press down to get truck to stop. Took it back in and had the line rebled and the rotors re-turned. That did the trick and it has worked fine since.
