I've had bad gas mileage since I got vehicle 10 months ago. I had 19 miles left when I parked my Edge after having brake booster replaced on 2/15/24 13N02, to wake up with 0 miles left"?? I've been getting 15 MPG" That's easy country driving, now my gas is disappearing. I believe it's same problem as fuel leak recall 14V-002/13513. The 2013 Fordm Edge should be a buy back do to so many manufacturers errors.

I was issued a customer satisfaction program #13N02 while replacing brake booster helped, bypassing the fact the master cylinder fluid leaked into brake booster and was not part of repair is just ridiculous. Until master cylinder is repaired, problem will not be resolved! Please remedy by including master cylinder with brake booster 13N02. My brake pedal still goes to floor, I am requesting your immediate response

After filling up the vehicle to the "first click" at the gas station and driving home, noticed strong fuel odor in garage. Next trip noticed a puddle of fuel under the fuel tank and dripping fuel from vehicle. Issue goes away after driving about 75 miles. Next fill up, purposely kept fuel level no higher than about 3/4 tank do not currently have the issue. Am not filling the vehicle to full any longer. No check engine light indicated, even after driving over 300 miles.

The first issue I am having is that the vehicle is telling me to put my car in park when it-??s already in park. This has been going on for many months now. My second issue is when I fill my tank to full and try to start it, it has a hard time turning over. This has been going on for many months now. My third issue is that my front wipers will not turn off no matter what I do. And it-??s been weeks. The fourth issue I have is that two of my tires keep leaking air since I have purchased a vehicle from the dealership and I have had it in and they claim they sealed it but they are still leaking. So I constantly have to fill them up with air. This has been going on since I bought it from the dealership.

My daughter was driving the car and the vehicle stalled out. A warning light for low oil pressure came on however the oil was change 1 week ago. This is very dangerous because she was on a very busy highway. Also when putting gas in the car it sometimes will not start.

I have filed a complaint several Times regarding my car. After several times (3) times of getting my fuel valve replaced it is having issues again. This probably has given me incorrect gas milage and has lost power on me going down the road mid drive with 2 kids in the back seat almost causing an accident. This is unacceptable and as soon as something happens there will be a lawsuit. I have replaced this part 3-4 times now and still getting codes and having my car just randomly loose power and shut off. Something needs to be done about the purge valve malfunctioning system on these cars before someone like myself and kids get extremely hurt.

Car started shaking when I started to slow down at a red light and then loss power in the road. This continued to happen. Finally engine light came on I took it to get scanned came back 02 sensor. I will take it back to the dealer on Tuesday. My car just shutting off with two kids in the backseat going down the road is not okay and a huge safety issue.

I took my car in for routine oil change and was told that my car had needed the PTU transfer case unit fixed. They told me it was leaking and it would soon stop my car from operating. I looked into this and found the same recall was done for other vehicles but not mine! I am sure my vehicle was missed during this recall because the exact same is happening to my car!!!! This is NHTSA Campaign ID 14V002000. This recall was done on 01/06/2014. There are also other recalls I believe my vehicle is eligible for that my vehicle was not recalled. This process should be a priority to get correct and it is embarrassing I am having to go through this. I hope someone is able to remedy this as I believe this is a manufacturer defect, that I deserve to have compensated for.

Check engine light turned on while accelerating. When light first came on it cause the car to stall while driving. Had to pull over and turn the car off. Went and had the codes read the code was an EVAP leak. Was told it was the gas cap leak. Gas tank is an easy fuel tank. After research I do believe this issue is associated with NHTSA Campaign: 14v002000

The engine light is on in my car. I took it to a repair shop and they said it had the codes of P2196 and P2198 a H02S heated oxygen sensor is malfuntioning. When the rep pulled up the codes he informed me they had thousands of my same vehicle with the same problem. I contacted Ford warranty and they said it was not covered. This is horrible for Ford to know this is a defect on their vehicle and not be responsible for fixing it. So I would like to launch this formal complaint. I will never buy another Ford vehicle again. The aip has gone out in my vehicle and I have had other issues that the Ford warranty has said did not apply. The vehicle was in motion when the light came on.

The brake pedal acts as if there is air in the line or the need to be bled. The brake pads are fairly new changed this year. The next stop starts the same then the pedal goes to the floor. The other issue is the engine oil pressure light comes on. The idle id effected by this and the engine nearly stalls.

The contact owns a 2013 Ford Edge. The contact stated that there was an abnormal fuel odor coming from the fuel tank. The contact stated that the check engine warning light was illuminated. An independent mechanic confirmed a fuel leak and fuel evap failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact referenced the failure to NHTSA campaign number: 14V002000 (fuel system, gasoline) however, the VIN was not included. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 120,000.

The engine stopped while in motion (on multiple occasions), usually when coming to a stop or turning. I lost steering control as well. The error "low engine oil pressure" appeared on panel. After putting car in park and attempting to restart the car, it usually would restart right away. On one occasion, it took 2 attempts to start it. Fortunately, there weren't any cars directly behind me or it would've likely caused an accident. A mechanic cleaned the throttle body, replaced a plug, and replaced a misfiring cylinder. The issue has not happened again in the 2 days since then.

While driving the car 40 miles it completely died and the steering wheel locked up. I took the car in for diagnostic test and it came back nothing. The car was giving back to me and it had the warning flashing on the dash with the wrench. I took several pictures. Driving West on I-40 during rush hour traffic. I paid for this repair and see this exact same thing has happened. Several month later the brakes felt like I was pushing on a brick. I was unable to stop, . the Ford company has a recal on the brake boaster and I was told to pay $900 and maybe some time they will include my 2013 Ford Edge. Sept 16 2019, the check engine light is on. There is a recallfor the Ford Edge 2013 but again not mine I have a faulty purge valve. Ford is charging $349 to put on a part that is again on recall. This part is also on the outside of the car.

Check fuel inlet came on. Then engine light several days later. The gas gauge will not read the level of gas. Now the check engine light is coming on. The dealer said it is not covered under emissons. And it sure is. These fumes are getring in the air. And the valve is not working causing the gas can to get metal which will in turn tear this up.
