Brake Light On Problems of Ford Edge

While driving in new albany, indiana on Saturday, April 10, 2021, the brake lights all came on at once. My husband had me pull over into a parking spot and he said there was 0 brake fluid in the reservoir. He has worked on brakes as a mechanic his whole life (71 yo now) and said he had never seen anything like it. He drove to a very close gas station and got a can of brake fluid and when we got home he had his brother look under it while he pumped the brakes. Immediately noticed the hose was ruptured. Took it to heritage Ford in corydon, in which is the closest Ford dealiership to us. We found paperwork that was sent in sept. 2020 that said this was safety recall notice 20s42/NHTSA recall 20v-469. They called and said they will not pay for this. We called the main Ford corp. Phone number and they told us the same thing. Both the dealer and Ford corp. Say we must pay upfront and may be able to get our money back and there may be a form but all we got was a toll free number to Ford customer service and they do not answer the phone. This could have resulted in failure to brake or stop, causing injury or death as it was immediate without prior warning. They only replaced the passenger side and will not replace the passenger side. They did not check the brakes for further wear or damage. The recall notice, invoice, and proof of payment are attached. This is very dangerous and not right. Ford dealer and main corporate office have said "they don't know how they are going to handle this and that's why we have to pay upfront. " we want our money back to start with and want the other side repaired at their expense along with brake inspection. They also did not offer a courtesy vehicle although we asked repeatedly for one.

On 7/16/2020 my 2017 Ford Edge experienced a loss of brakes while driving. The vehicle was was approaching a busy intersection when the failure occurred. The brake pedal went to the floor and the emergency brake had to be used to avoid a collision. The vehicles low brake fluid light came one and a large pool of fluid was coming from the front passenger wheel. The vehicle was tow back to my house and upon investigation the front passenger brake line had burst. There was no sign of prior damage or unusual wear. The vehicle has 63,000 miles.

Tl the contact owns a 2017 Ford Edge. The contact stated while driving at approximately 35 mph the brake pedal was depressed traveling to the floor board failing to stop the vehicle, as a result rear ending the vehicle in front causing it to collide with another vehicle. No warning lights were illuminated. No vehicle occupants sustained injuries. The vehicle was not taken to dealer or local mechanic for a diagnostic testing. A police report was filed. The contact mentioned that the vehicle was taken to ravenel Ford (6340 savannah hwy, ravenel, SC 294700) approximately a month ago for brake issues. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer where the brake fluid reservoir was replaced due to the brake warning light illuminating. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 34,000.

My fianc� was driving her vehicle when she pressed the brake and it seemed to go to the floor. It wasn't until the low brake fluid light came on that she realized there was a problem. Thankfully the light came on as she was pulling into a parking spot and the store and not trying to slow down from 55mph. I met her at the parking lot she stopped in and upon investigating I found brake fluid all under the vehicle and all over the wheel liner. I had the vehicle towed to the dealership and was informed the left front line ruptured. We have had the car for 5 months as we bought it certified pre-owned. Dealership informed us that the line wasn't covered under warranty, it has 24,250 miles on it. The selling dealership advertised the cpo as being worth the extra price over a regular used car because it would take care of everything with the 12 month/12,000 mike bumper to bumper, a flat out lie. I contacted Ford and after a great deal of back and forth for over a week, they denied any assistance. Now I'm on the hook for a $600 repair bill and wondering how long it will be until the other line bursts. This is a safety issue and Ford won't do anything about it. I will be selling this car ASAP and it will be the last Ford product I ever own.

2015 Ford Edge with 45, 250 miles. I was driving along and went to apply my brakes. The pedal went to the floor. I was approaching a red light. I pumped and pumber to slow down. At that time, the brake light and the low brake fluid lights came on. I had no brakes. I had to pull the electric barking brake up to stop. I had to travel a little ways more and make a u-turn in the middle of a 4 lane busy , major highway, in order to get to a shopping center parking lot. There again no brakes - had to use my electric parking. I was so afraid. I am just thankful I thought of the hand brake, which almost threw us in the windsheild. It was such a hard stop. I called roadside assistance to get the car and tow the dealership. They have verified, brake line busted on my car. It has a split in it. I purchased the car new from the dealership. I believe this is a very serious matter. Brake line busted on something with that low of miles.

Replaced master cylinder but no change. Scared to drive vehicle. Never know when the brakes are going to act up.

2007 Ford Edge has ptu leak, the transmission is not shifting properly, the brake light bulbs are constantly blowing and melting in the socket. The brakes sound like they are grinding metal and the cd player decided to quit working too. I have read online of others having all of these exact same problems. The ptu and transmission problems should not be something that the owner should have to pay to have corrected when it is clearly a design flaw from the manufacturer. I am a single mother and still making payments on this car and cannot afford to pay thousands of dollars to have their design flaw repaired!! when in motion the transmission acts as though it doesn't know when to shift. It kind of feels like I am in a manual and haven't changed gears when I am supposed to and if I don't push the clutch in it will stall out. But instead this is an automatic behaving that way and instead of a clutch I have to give it more gas to get it to downshift or it acts like it is going to stall. This is a problem going 20 or below as well as 55 or above, it also feels like the driveshaft is vibrating the whole car when it does this. It started out being intermittent but now it is a daily occurrence, but it is all I have to drive to work so I deal with it. It needs to be recalled!!.

Without warning, brakes failed. Thankfully was traveling slowly as parking the car. There was a hissing sound and brake pedal went all the way to the floor. We were lucky. Could have been a disaster. Car is at private mechanic. Told master cylinder and brake booster bad. Why wouldn't we have had a warning prior to such a potentially disastrous failure. Why wouldn't the brake warning light have activated.

The rear tail light sockets for the tail/brake light lamps are badly burned on both sides. We noticed the problem when we changed the tail light housing due to water vapor buld up. Only the right side had the visible water vapor. Both sides had the burned lamp sockets. The car was purchased used.

Brake light bulbs burning out resulting in a loss of turn signals and brake lights . The connector is discolored due to high heat (current). Company is covering under warranty but has not issued a technical bulletin.

Both rear brake light sockets are burnt and melted. This has been reported in complaint numbers 10439124, 10380902, 10372008, and 10307462 as well . A quick search on the internet will reveal numerous owners have and are experiencing this exact issue. The socket that plugs into the brake light pigtail (on both sides) is burnt and actually melted. The drivers side has been hot enough to melt the taillight housing itself. And this is happening without causing a fuse to blow or any type of warning that there is a serious electrical issue. With the recall on the 2012 regarding the fuel tank issue you might think shorting taillights in the same vicinity would be a nasty combination.

After having the rear brake rotors and pads on my 2007 Ford Edge replaced at jack safro Ford in oconomowoc,WI on 5/24/10, I noticed that the brake warning light, the abs warning light, and the traction warning light were on. Also noted that the abs braking system was inoperable at that time. Made another appointment on 6/2/10 at dealer to have problem diagnosed. Dealer informed me that both rear wheel abs sensors were inoperable and recommended replacing both sensors, the rear wheel bearing and trailer arm on the right rear side. Dealer also informed me that problem was unrelated to the brake work done just prior. While the car was at the dealer that day I called Ford customer service relative to the problem and was informed that Ford would not offer any assistance on the repair as the vehicle had 39,696 miles and was outside the 36,000 mile warrenty. I declined to have the work done at that time in order to get more information. On 6/7/10 I took the car to an independent repair shop specializing in abs brakes, where they told me the right rear abs brake sensor had been damaged by the right rear sensor ring, which itself was damaged and partially shredded. Per the manufacturer's service bulletin, that shop then replaced both rear wheel sensors, and the right rear wheel hub with bearing and sensor ring. I was given the old hub which I have retained and was shown the failed sensor ring which caused the abs problem. Brakes operated properly with warning lights off after that repair. I had the repair done at that shop rather than the dealer because I was given a very specific description of the problem, as opposed to just being told "both rear wheel sensors were not working", with no mention of the damaged sensor ring. I am not persuaded that the sensor problem was unrelated to the earlier rear brake job since the technician at the second shop showed me where someone had attempted to glue the right rear sensor unit together. I also have that part which was replaced.

2007 Ford Edge brake light switch and brake lights stop working.

We own a 2007 Edge sel and the driver's side brake light constantly burns out. The bulb has been replaced countless times and the socket is melted. I just wanted to share this with everyone. A clicking noise has also developed on the driver's side front wheel recently, however we haven't seen anything related to other complaints about this. The vehicle currently has very low miles (24,000) and this seems odd. I hope this information helps others.
