CarComplaints.com Notes: Say what you will about the styling of the Ford Edge, but the bottom line is owners seem to love this vehicle. That is, of course, except in the case of it's dangerous, worrisome and unexplained issues with random engine stalling.
Our data suggests an early defect trend, as owners of the 2007-2008 models have started posting their accounts of what happens when you're driving down the road and the engine just stops. Some at high speed, some at low speed but always a random shutdown of the engine, electrical and power steering.
Time will tell if this becomes a widespread issue, but there's no drying the seriousness of the problem. With that in mind, we're flagging the Edge with our "Beware of the Clunker" rating until the situation improves.

Both sides of my rear window trim are "melting". If you touch it, you leave a dent just like it was child's clay. The people who wash my car say that have seen this in other Fords, and it's always worse on the sunny side (just like mine). Obviously I'm not the only one with this problem based on other comments on this site. Ford is cheaping out and using sub-standard materials. This should be a recall item and they should get it fixed. This car was too expensive for this kind of junk material. I have recommended this car to so many people, but that stops now. Thank God I don't live in Arizona or Nevada - the window would have fallen out by now!
