“When the vehicle sits overnight in the garage and I first back out the rear brakes make a grinding noise like the pads are sticking. When I start forward in drive it stops. The rear rotors are being grooved with this marks. The vehicle only has 23,000 miles on it. When I contacted Ford I was told that the brakes are only covered for 12 months or 12,000 miles”
NHTSA complaint #10947508, filed 2017-01, 23,000 miles“While exiting a parking lot into the main thoroughfare the brakes suddenly became hard and unresponsive. Additionally we have noted a squealing and hissing sound coming from the brakes when the pedal is depressed. We took the car to a Ford dealership and determined there is an issue with the brake booster system. Research showed the Ford had issued a safety notice (13n02) and extended the warranty on the Ford EDGE and the lincole mkx vehicles for the model years 2010 - 2013. …”
NHTSA complaint #11204765, filed 2019-04, 61,000 miles“At 60,000 miles my 2014 Ford EDGE master cylinder failed while driving at around 10 MPH on my street as I was getting ready to park which effected braking. This caused me to hit the high concrete curb in front of my house and mess up my front bumper. I ended up having to pull the lower bumper cover off to keep it from dragging the ground. The master doesn't completely fail though, it works for about a dozen stops and then the pedal gets soft for one stop. Upon calling Ford this is one of the VIN numbers that is not covered under the recall. …”
NHTSA complaint #11014211, filed 2017-08, 60,000 miles“On several occasions while driving and moving my foot from the gas pedal to the brake pedal, my shoe has gotten hung up on the open space by the gas pedal. There is a open gap between the side panel near the gas pedal on the right. Unlike other cars I looked at it is not one continuous piece of molding. When moving my foot from the gas pedal to the brake my shoe got caught in the open area. In 2 instances it caught and pulled off my sandal delaying my ability to get to the brake pedal. In other instances it caught my shoe and delayed my braking time.”
NHTSA complaint #10597733, filed 2014-06, 255 miles“While driving the vehicle on a city street came to a stop light went to push the brake pedal and it felt like the vehicle had no brakes and was not stopping. Pushed the pedal all the way to the floor and the vehicle finally came to a stop. The brake pedal felt extremely hard to push to get the brakes to stop the vehicle. Took the vehicle to the Ford dealership and they found the brake booster failed. The vehicle only has 33,874 miles currently on it.”
