Seems like it could be electrical or sensors. Have taken car to Ford service, but they can't pinpoint problem. Have also had to replace rear tail lights multiple times, sometimes within 2 days of replacement. This has happened about 5 times within the past 3 years, several months apart. Turned car off, waited a few minutes, turned car back on and everything was back to normal, car drove fine. Dash board went blank except for wrench symbol, airbag symbol and odometer had all dashes. Car would not accelerate without pressing accelerator more than usual and engine revved high.


2008 Ford Edge, purchase in 2012.Īfter starting car, vehicle made loud clunk sound when put in reverse. I live in a very town (los angeles county) where traffic is steady and aggressive so knowing this problem can happen anytime is unsettling, especially because I have been rear ended once for not being able to proceed with traffic at a green light. This problem is quite worrisome considering I'd hate to be stranded with my children in an intersection. I have noticed that if the "check engine light" isn't on, nor if you're not paid out of pocket, Ford does not recognize a problem. This was the same response I got when I've taken it to Ford during the term of my warranty. I took it to the dealership and I was told nothing was wrong with it. I initially thought my battery was the problem, but I had it replaced the following morning. This has also happened while I was exiting the freeway once. It barely accelerated then gradually came to a complete stop while in drive. Mind you, I wasn't going fast because I had barely pulled out of the parking stall when this occurred. Also, on a few occasions, while pulling out of a parking lot, the Edge did not want to accelerate though I was pressing on the gas. It's like a hard pause, before it jerks forward. After driving for a while (roughly a few hours) the Edge does this hard jerk forward that feels like I'm practically being rear ended.
