2010 Ford Edge Engine cooling Problems

“I am having what may be a very serious health/hazard issue with my 2008 Ford EDGE. The problem is when you drive the vehicle oil is leaking from the transmission/ptu seal on to the muffler/leadpipe,burning ,and sending toxic fumes through the fresh air system. I had to pull over today to air the vehicle out, in which it has left me sick from the burning fumes. When sitting oil is leaking onto the ground. I have contacted my Ford dealer, in which they have attempted to repair with Ford updated seals. …”

“Driving down highway at 65 MPH and 2010 Ford EDGE completely shut down. I had no warning, all gauges were off, no power, and no hazard lights. Ford has had the car for 10 days trying to fix it. They have put 200 miles on it and brought in a Ford engineer (specialist) to try and locate and fix the problem. They cannot duplicate the problem, cannot figure what caused it and have not replaced nor fixed any parts on the car. They want to release the car back to me to wait and see if and when it happens again. …”

“I purchased a 2010 EDGE limited for a gift & the next day I noticed the strong odor of antifreeze coming from the heating system. My wife also noticed the same odor when she drove it christmas day. She has taken it to the dealer it was purchased from & the local dealer & both say they can not find any problem. It is very noticeable when the engine is cold, then comes & goes through out the day. Being a mechanic for over 35 years tells me the heater core and or related components have a very small coolant leak. …”

“On 1/21/12, I pulled into a parking space, with my foot on the brake to put the car into park, the engine made a funny noise and the car surged forward crashing into a Ford mustang. This crash should never have happened since my foot had the brake depressed. When the car came to a halt after hitting the mustang, I had to pull the gear shift out of park to back up off the damaged vehicle. After taking my vehicle to randall Ford to be checked out, I was informed that there was nothing wrong with my vehicle. They tried to convince me that my foot was on both pedals. …”

“I purchased my 2010 Ford EDGE the first week of may 2011. Within three days I noticed that the vehicle would accelerate suddenly, and the RPM would jump from 1500 to 3500, then back again. This happened several times. I called the dealership where I purchased the vehicle, and they stated I could take it to any Ford service dept. I did just that and was told nothing was wrong with the vehicle. When I went to retrieve my newly purchased Ford EDGE, there was a four inch gash in the right side of the hood. They denied that the gash happened at their service dept. …”
