Brake vacuum booster. I was told by my mechanic that my brake vacuum booster is going bad. I called Ford and it is not covered under the current recall. My vehicle was built at the oakville assembly plant on March 26, 2010, a little over a month before the recall date perimeters of may 3, 2010 through March 28, 2013. When applying the brakes, there is a whistling noise under the dashboard, the brakes get rock hard and then sink to the floor.

At approximately 76,000 miles, my 2013 Ford Edge's brakes failed. I was on the interstate when I hit the brakes. The brakes were hard to press & the vehicle did not slow down. I pressed down harder & came to a very hard & sudden stop. Thankfully there was no one following & I was able to avoid an accident. I slowed & within a couple of seconds brakes became responsive again. I needed to get home so I drove as slow as possible staying away from other cars, however brakes worked without issues. Approaching home there were multiple stop signs & again the brakes locked & the car did not stop. I also heard a loud whistling noise in the car. I took the car to the dealer & even though the dealer says they know brakes are failing in the 2010-2013 Ford Edges, there is no recall, only a customer service program that does not apply to my VIN. This program number is 13n02 and extends the coverage out to 150k miles on selected vehicle's. I contacted Ford @ 1-866-436-7332 to express my problem & concern. I spoke to 4 different representatives that all recited the same script. The script basically said sorry your car is experiencing a problem and to have a certified Ford dealership fix it at my cost. Apparently someone decided that the expense of the estimated number of people they put at risk of death or injury is still less than what it would cost them to fix their faulty brakes. Here is the kicker, I bought this car certified pre owned in early 2016. How was Ford of port richey, able to certify this car when the brakes were already failing!!!!! they sold me a death trap! I have decided to have a local and highly recommended shop fix my vehicle rather than line the pockets of Ford that seemed ok with placing my family & others at risk while being aware of the problems with the installed faulty brake boosters.

At approximately 46,000 miles, my 2013 Ford Edge's brakes failed. I was on the interstate behind a semi truck when they hit the brakes. Brakes were locked, hard to press and the vehicle did not slow down. Thankfully there was no one on the following lane and I was able to avoid an accident. I decelerated and within a couple of seconds brakes became responsive again. I needed to make it home, drove trying to go as slow as possible and staying away from other cars, however brakes worked without issues. Approaching home there was a stop sign and again I was lucky enough to avoid an accident when the brakes locked and the car did not stop. This time a loud whistling noise filled the cabin. To add insult to injury, even though the dealer says they know brakes are failing in their f150's and Ford Edges, there is no recall, and they made me pay a deductible to fix the car that is under warranty. Apparently someone decided that the expense of the estimated number of people they put at risk of death or injury is still less than what it would cost them to fix their faulty brakes. Here is the kicker, I bought this car certified pre owned in July 2016. I got my car back today, they fixed the faulty brake boosters and the cabin is uncharacteristically quiet. Since I had bought the car there was a quiet hiss when I hit the brakes and the sales person told me that was normal for the car, I never had a Ford before and the brakes did work originally so I didn't give it another thought. But now that its quiet I know that the brakes were failing at that point. How was bill currie Ford in tampa, able to certify this car when the brakes were already failing!!!!! they sold me a death trap!.

The contact owns a 2008 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while driving 2 mph, she applied the brakes and the brake pedal abnormally traveled to the floor board without warning. In addition, the contact heard a whistling noise as the failure occurred. The contact shifted into park and was able to stop the vehicle. The vehicle was inspected by an independent mechanic who determined that the vehicle would need a new power booster for the brakes. The manufacturer was notified and a complaint was filed. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure and current mileage was 52,000.

The first time was on Jan 14, 2012. The switch under the brake pedal went out, left me stranded. Now the brake booster is bad. With no warning, the brakes got rock hard and then go to the floor after awhile with a whistling noise. It takes alot of effort to stop vehicle. I came extremely close to crashing . I took my vehicle to the dealer and they told me that the booster was bad. . I am very unhappy that Ford don't see this as a problem that should to be recalled. My wife loves her Edge, but im afraid that something may happen to my wife and 2 year little girl while driving.

The first time was in Feb. 2010 the switch under the brake pedal went out, left me stranded. Now the brake booster is going bad. No warning, the brakes get rock hard and then go to the floor with a horrible whistling noise. You may or may not stop. Dont do any sudden stops you will crash. I am very unhappy that Ford dont see this as a problem that needs to be recalled. Love the car looks and rides, but wont buy another due to the saftey issues.
