Driving with cruise on at 55 to 60, yellow wrench comes on after feeling the car shutter, cruise stops working but was able to keep it up to speed. Kept driving, at every stop light the car acts like it wants to stall but doesn't, then acts like it is in 3rd or 4th gear when taking off. Shut the car off and re-started and it acted fine. Then, the next day, the same thing happened when my wife was driving on her way to work in stop and go traffic. This yellow wrench came on about 10 months ago and it cleared when shutting the car off. Dealer said to keep an eye on it and it may have been a glitch. Spent a ton of money on this car and we don't even feel safe driving it! getting the throttle body replaced as we speak so hopefully that will fix it for good. Less than 15,000 miles on the car.

While driving home in my 2015 Ford Edge titanium, I turned into a side street and pressed the accelerator to continue driving. Car shut down completely. I could not advance. After sitting for a few minutes, everything came back on. I was able to restart the vehicle and made it home. A car that puts my life in danger like this could also put other lives at risk. This is a very dangerous situation and needs to be addressed.

Etb electronic throttle body failed while driving putting me in danger on the road and causing my car to go limp. I was driving 70 mph in a 75 and lost power and control of the vehicle. It was all I could do to put the car on the shoulder without an accident. The wrench light came on the dashboard. It was towed to texarkana and I am in rockwall tx waiting on 15000 of these parts are on back order with Ford to come in for my car. This is hopeless. It's dangerous to have this car stall like that and to know 1.6 million have already.

Throttle body. Ford Edge titanium new car - have for roughly 6 months - 10,000 mileage driving on highway doing 65 - 70 miles an hour. Car makes a beep noise and a large wrench appears in the left screen on the dashboard. No ability to use gas pedal which is now locked up - cannot press down. Car is slowing down. Only options to go to side of road and turn off. Car can be restarted. Take to dealership asap (happens again on the way - this time only driving approximately 30 miles an hour). Dealership says it is the throttle body and they have ordered part to repair. Been without a car for a week. Still awaiting for dealership to repair.

Edge

  • 2,400 miles
I got out of the car in a driveway, was standing with the car door still open when the car started to roll down the driveway. I was knocked down and then stuck under the car door while being dragged down the driveway. I screamed for help and a neighbor heard, ran over just as I approached the street and stopped the car. She said the car showed to be in reverse yet it was turned off and I didn't hear any warning signals. It also didn't start to roll until I was standing out of it on two feet. If I felt it rolling while getting out, I would have still had a foot in the car to hit the break. Besides bruises and muscle pulls, I also experienced a hole in my shoulder which went to the bone while being dragged.

On January 4, 2016 the vehicle entered a safe mode in the middle of traffic. Without notice, while in motion and in the middle of traffic, the vehicle shut down; deployed the emergency brakes; and attempted to dial 911. It nearly caused an accident in the middle of a busy intersection. We promptly took the vehicle to the dealership, where they said the issue could not be replicated. The regional representative at Ford customer service stated that if the issue could not be replicated Ford would not be able to do anything else. The vehicle is brand new, with around 3000 miles. We are concerned about the vehicle and Ford's unwillingness to address the issue.

  • 8,500 miles
This report is an update to complaint: 10788647. This vehicle, a 2015 Ford Edge sel with a 3.5L engine, was repaired by a Ford dealership for a stalling/loss of power while driving issue. The dealership had the vehicle from November 5-13, 2015, and reprogramed the PCM in order to correct the stalling condition. Initially, this action seemed to resolve the stalling issue. However, in recent days the gas mileage has dropped about 3 mpg, and on Tuesday, December 22, 2015, at 7:25pm the Edge stalled will driving (not accelerating, decelerating, or turning) and the engine quit. The vehicle simple stalled and lost total power while driving. There were no warning or error lights. The only message was "full accessory power active." I had to place the vehicle in park in order to restart, which I was able to do. Fortunately, I was not on a busy roadway when the vehicle stalled. The dealership advised me to bring them the vehicle the next day, December, 23, 2015, and the vehicle has remained in their possession since that time. This issue is dangerous. I live in a major metropolitan area and travel interstates everyday. If it stalls while I am on the interstate, the situation could be disastrous.
