Edge 6-cyl

  • 23,195 miles
I pulled into a parking space. Felt the car move forward. Immediately turned the steering wheel to avoid the car directly parked in front of me. Accelerating to 25-30 miles per hour and not knowing what was happening, steered the car up the parking lane into a snow-covered field, circled and came back into another row of the parking lot. I had my foot on the brakes the whole time. When I got to the end of that row and realized I had no brakes, finally threw it in park. The car stopped, gears grinding. The vehicle maintained the same speed the whole time. If there would have been people or other car movement at the time, I don't know what would have happened. Ford inspected the vehicle and found nothing.
