I have experienced several occasions where I have either had to 1) press the brakes very hard to the floor to stop, sometimes still rolling or 2) occasionally felt very stiff brakes that will not stop the car when pressing on the brake. The car would continue to roll. I had to pull to the side so I would not impact the car in front of me. This has happened several times on highway 23. There was a recall for a brake booster issue, but Ford claims my car was made the month after the recall ended. This issue has been happening for years, and getting worse recently. We had to schedule the repair because the car was unsafe to drive. The brakes were in good condition otherwise - no other issues.

I have a hissing noise when pressing the brake and a softer feeling when pushing the brake. This happens when I come to a complete stop or when I'm idling. My vehicle was built in the plant that had a customer satisfaction program offer an extended warranty to fix this issue, but my date is 6 months off of their window and they won't cover it.

Failure of the brake booster. This allows the brake pedal to go almost to the floor, requiring a longer stopping distance and more pressure on the brake pedal. My wife told me about this occasional beginning about 1.5 years ago but I was unable to duplicate it. This past Wednesday February 17, 2021, while I was driving the car at various speeds, it failed completely. In 2014 Ford issued csp 13N02 to correct this problem on 2010-2013 Ford Edge vehicles. This was not a recall, but it should be. My wife never received notification from Ford or the selling dealership about this. We made an appointment for today, February 21, 2021, at the selling dealership. When we dropped it off I informed them of the problem, as well as csp 13N02. Since her vehicle had just over the 150,000 mile limit for the csp they refused to perform the work under the terms of that csp. That csp has a parts cost of $200 and allows 2 hours labor. They have quoted her $700+. the car has been left there for repair since we have no other choice. There should be a recall initiated for this dangerous situation.

Issue with brakes at only 66,000 miles, havingto pump the brakes, car still rolling when pedal is to the floor, hissing sound when stopped. Happened over a few weeks time. Took to Ford dealer, diagnosed brake booster and needs replacement. Researched and found customer satisfaction program 13no2 letter https://Ford.oemdtc.com/2280/13N02-extended-warranty-coverage-on-brake-booster-2010-2013-Ford-Edge-Lincoln-mkx dating back to 2014 regarding this same issue but was told by my dealership service dept that my vehicle was built 3 months after the effected vehicle cut off of March 3 2013. This is so suspect. I cant drive my car. My brakes dont work. I took it to Firestone and the techician told me that its not safe to drive. I will never purchase another Ford vehicle again. Once this is fixed I will trade it in for a Chevrolet. Note that the dealer can look up your vehicle info in their system called oasist,

Ford Edge 2013 every couple of months you will find the brake reach to the floor suddenly. I visited the Agency some times they saying master cilinder and some times hydraulic control unit and both are very expensive because most of this cars model always change it. You have to put in your mind every time you will use the brakes that you will not fid the brakes pedal.

I live on a rural highway, upon approaching my house, traveling around 55 mph, when I applied my brakes, the ABS system activated, the pedal went to the floor, almost didn't stop and almost took my mailbox out, fortunately I was home. The next day, the brake pedal now goes to the floor with little braking power. I work for an independent repair facility and have determined the problem is with the hcu. 2 other vehicles came to our shop with the same problem within the last couple months. I have contacted Ford and have been informed there are recalls/campaigns for this problem. This is definitely a safety issue with the sudden loss of brakes. Ford Motor Co. Should take responsibility for this common problem!

I was driving home from a day trip I had made. My brakes never gave me no problems. Into I was a hour away from home and it had started raining a little so I hit the brakes just a little bit and notice that my brakes was going all the way to the floor. I literally had to pump the brakes and be very careful until I got home. Then noticed there was not a drop of brake fluid. This is very dangerous.
