My brakes aren't working properly. Very dangerous. I'm told it's a brake booster, some 2013 Ford Edge have been recalled but not mine! the brakes feel very squishy and will not stop car quickly, especially going downhill. I'm very afraid to drive it. My car is still under 150,000 miles and 10 years. Other 2013 Edges are being covered under extended warranty and csp 13 N02, but not mine.

I was coming to a stop light on city street after going approx 35 mph and when I pushed on the brakes, my foot went to the floor without the brakes working. This happened a couple of times in quick succession. Then on 3rd attempt, the brakes worked. This has happened to me 3 times in past 6 months.

Brake pads had been changed 8/19. Beginning 7/20, considerable effort was needed to engage the brakes. The pedal would be nearly to the floor before fully engaging. With the car in motion, we were concerned that we wouldn't stop in time.. the car was taken to our auto shop where the mechanic discovered there was a problem with the brake booster. He mentioned that ours was the third Edge he has worked on with this same problem.

I was driving my 2013 Ford Edge and came to a stop sign (on a city street). The brakes stopped but the break pedal felt "spongy". the break pedal continue to go down and I heard a noise. With the break pedal still down my car started rolling. I drove straight to my mechanic. He said it was a break booster problem. He printed out customer satisfaction program 13N02 for me. I slowly drove home on back streets and almost ran through a red light because the brakes failed again. I had to constantly pump them to get it to stop. Ford has recalls on this problem but the Ford customer service (at 800-392-3673) said my vehicle was built at the Oakville assembly plant in July 2013 instead of from May 3, 2010-March 28,2013 therefore my Ford is not on their recall which I feel it definitely should be.

Exiting a ramp from a freeway my 2013 Ford Edge did not respond when applying the brakes and almost causing a rollover for myself and wife. I was able to get the car stopped by applying hard pressure to the brake pedal. The Edge has a hard pedal and a hissing sound. The Ford dealership I took it into today in bartow Florida tells me it's the brake booster and needs replacing. Cost just under $1000 however it also has a Ford satisfaction warranty 13no2 in affect for the 2013 Ford Edge. I was told my 2013 Edge is not part of the recall. Why?

Car took very long to stop. I had to keep pumping the brakes to make it stop. If I just kept the brakes pressed down without pumping the car kept rolling. This happened whenever I had to stop at a light or a stop sign. I brought the car to a Ford dealer and they said it was the master cylinder. I had that replaced and I still had the same problem. I went on a website and found out there was a recall on Ford Edges that was exactly my problem and it said it was caused by a leak in the brake booster. I brought the car back to Ford and they replaced the brake booster and this solved the problem. However I was told that my car was not part of the recall so I had to pay for all of the costs.

I had a problem with my Ford Edge braking system specifically involving the brake booster. I was driving at about 40 mph when I started to apply the brake and heard a 'hissing' noise and the brake pedal became 'mushy' and almost totally unresponsive. I was able to brake but the braking distance was increased and had to pump the brakes to get them to respond. I researched the issue and found that Ford had issued a tsb (13N02) regarding the booster. It described the problem I had involving that model year and place of manufacture of my vehicle (Oakville, Ontario). I took the vehicle in for repairs but was told that the issue I had was not covered by the bulletin because my vehicle did not have the part in question. I challenged Ford and even called their customer service but was told even though my concern was identical, it was not covered. I voiced how concerned I was due to the exactitude of the problem and my safe use of the vehicle but was repeatedly denied. I am now asking NHTSA to help resolve the issue altogether and have Ford pay for the repairs.

When approaching a stop sign with my 2013 Ford Edge (79000 miles), the brake pedal was extremely hard to push and the vehicle entered the intersection. It did stop after applying much pressure on the brake pedal. This happens very frequently now. I am afraid it will not stop at all at some point in the future.

Was driving my Ford Edge 30 mph, coming up to stop light, when brake pedal just goes to floor. Luckily there was no one else at light. Took my a block to come to a stop.

While braking, the brakes didn't not perform as expected. They were working fine, then it felt like I couldn't stop in time. I had to push the peddle all the way down to stop. It caught me off guard, and almost couldn't stop in time. There was a hissing noise from the petal afterwards. The condition existed until I stopped, parked the car, and waited several hours. Then the next time I drove it, no issues. I checked the brake system and determined. - no visible leaks - brake pads have plenty of life - brake fluid reservoir still full

- Brandon, MS, USA

For several months my brakes have gotten worse and worse. Brake pads were replaced, brakes adjusted and even flooring the brakes sometimes does not work. Car has hesitated and shut off at intersections. Rain has caused some hydroplaning. Car continues rolling with brake pedal pushed all the way down. I stopped the car at a traffic light, but the car continued to roll slowly and ran into the vehicle in front of me! help! no damage to either exterior, but I don't know what might happen next.

I have a 2013 Ford Edge AWD sel model, this past Feb. 7, 2020 as traveling on a 3 hour trip to northern New York, for the most part their were no issues until I approached my destination which had heavy snow the day before.I needed to decline on a steep road that had snow, slushy spots, as I applied the brakes and shifted into low gear the ABS system kicked in and after that the pedal was spongy.and pedal approached the floor.after being a former Ford dealer for 40 yrs. Was able to take the trip back but with caution.I have practiced mechanics for 25 yrs of that 40.now retired and to it to a local technician, had brakes checked, were in good shape but on the check of the ABS system it indicated a possible stuck valve in the hcu unit which is costly.taking it to fellow Ford dealer whom I've known for 45 yrs. To varify. I know how the Ford system works and it takes pressure from public to collect data and at some point issue a recall on this matter.

Vehicle had brake booster recall 13 NO2 done previously. And brake booster has gone out again. Car does not start properly Ford will not warranty the repair.

- Seminole, FL, USA

While driving at any speed whenever I press my brakes the brake pedal went all the way down to the ground and it barely stopped the vehicle, I took the vehicle to the dealership and they told me it was the hcu and module that needed to be replaced at a cost of $1600 and the vehicle was in the shop for 9 days, I can't believe this very expensive part went bad after only 6 years and 67,000 miles.
