Cel light and P0456 diagnostic reading indicates an EVAP leak. Large fuel leak discovered emanating from the fuel tank area when tank is at full. Fuel tank was removed and upon inspection it revealed the fuel tank had cracked at the top of the rollover valve just underneath a vent line. There is no recall for this fuel tank as there should be. A new fuel tank is ordered and awaiting delivery as there is no replacement part or means to install a new rollover valve. Cost of tank at discount is $1000. Photo of cracked area is attached.

The roll-over valve on the top of the fuel tank cracked allowing gas to escape when the tank was over half full. The rollover valve is part of the tank assembly and cannot be replaced by itself. I had to purchase a new tank assembly for $1300 plus labor.

65 mph on highway, complete loss of power... electronics seemed to sputter off, then back on for a few seconds, then off again, but the vehicle shut completely off mid highway driving with no ability to steer, accelerate or decelerate. Ended up at a complete stop on the highway with nothing working to power the vehicle back on. Heater seemed to continue to work, but nothing as far as the engine or dash, no electronics. Continued to try to start the vehicle over and over as oncoming vehicles swerved around me at 60 to 70 mph. Dialed 911 and had to wait 15 minutes before a police car parked behind the Ford Edge with flashers on. Literally no warning, no warning lights, no nothing. Vehicle simply lost power... completely turned off. This was hands down one of the most frightening experiences for my daughter who was driving at the time. She'll likely not get back into that vehicle.

I have been smelling fuel/gas or sulfur like smell in my SUV took it to the Ford dealer in richmond, ca 3 times starting in April 2017, Jan 2019 and again Sept 2019 finally I was told I needed a ptu unit each time I took it need they could not locate the problem. It has become very bad and more often my car does not leak gas. I am really concern because now I have to take my granddaughter to school plus I am over 70 yrs and worry if someone runs into me will my car catch on fire or one day it will catch on fire it happens unexpectedly sometimes if I'm driving up a hill or for a long period of time (maybe an hour or so) and it only happen when I am driving and the smell fills my entire car that I have to let all the windows down and once I get home the whole car smells to the point I get sick (nausea) eyes burn and a headache. I have been so discussed with dealership that they were not able to detect this problem 2 yrs ago. I am so surprised that there has not be a recall on this dangerous problem by Ford.

Upon filling the gas tank, once park in the garage there is an overpowering smell of gasoline. I've cleaned the filler seal, checked for leaks "none noted." No fuel on the ground beneath the vehicle. The tank is not over filled, no residual fuel around the filler neck or running down the overfill drain. Fuel smell goes away after the tank is between 3/4 to 1/2 full. This is a dangerous situation which needs to be addressed by a recall. I suspect that there is a bad seal on the fuel pump or tank my be damaged

Check engine light comes on from error code P0456 - small leak detected in the evaporations emissions (evap) system. The check engine light comes on every time the vehicle is fueled with gasoline. My mechanic advised this is a common problem in Ford with the no gas cap system.

2 main on going issues 1. brakes- from day one, constantly-needing to be re rotored / new pads / grinding squeaky sounds - all the time. Ford blames me for ' not driving enough ' ".? concerned for safety - will they fail" 2. took car in today 4.5.18 - for 2nd time due to odor of propane or gas when coming to stop / low speed or idleing.. was told no bulletin or notice out for issue - which was leaking fluid undercar -which ' could cause fire ' was told I could not leave with my vehicle, rental was provided under my paid warranty. Review of online info shows many stories out as well as lawsuit on this very odor issue- yet I was never informed. Smell has been ongoing since Sept. 2017

Throttle body and motor asy I replaced this on 2/13/2016, later found out there was a recall and was reimbursed in 2014 but on 2/26/2018 it went out again an replaced at my out of pocket again. I ask is this a fix or just a replacement no one will answer me. This is dangerous, the car just stops no power, if in heavy traffic could be hit from the rear, not good. Is the replacement a fix oe just a replacement?

Code P2111 occurs and at stop light engine appears to almost stall. While driving the stability control tuns off, low oil pressure light comes on, and check engine light comes on. Problem goes away while driving after a second. At the stop light, it begins every time you come to the stop light. Ford says nothing is wrong but this appears to be another throttle body issue with Ford Edges.

1.a wrench shaped light came on from instrument panel, and having a sudden loss of power while driving. 2.the accelerator stops working or has extremely limited power. 3.after power off the vehicle and wait for 10-15 minutes to restart the vehicle, the wrench shaped light goes away and the vehicle in drivable condition again. But the problem could happen again within a day or in few days. It is really dangerous while during in highway or in busy roads when this problem occurred. The problem happens randomly. Sometimes it could happen several times in a day, sometimes it won't happen in a week. I called Ford dealers and they said to diagnostic it for $98 and only when the symptom happens they will be able to find the real cause. I searched online and it's a very common problem to 2010 -2013 Ford Edge owners.

2 times today I lost power and my car crawled out of the road. The wrench lit up and after I stopped and restarted car it was back to normal. First time was pulling into work then after work on the way to the dealership. They are fixing it. Said it was a faulty throttle body control module. Before they called back I looked this up and there were many statements on this happenning. If I had been on the interstate I could have been killed. I don't know why there hasn't been a recall before there are any lawsuits from people dieing.
