CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2013 Edge has its fair share of problems, but chief among them is an annoying “door ajar” warning light that won’t shut off even when the door is most definitely closed. While the retina-burning, ever-present false reminder on your dashboard is bad, it points to a deeper problem that can drain the battery, leave the doors unlocked while in motion, or render the key fob useless.

Noted leak of fluid from rear of vehicle of my 2013 Ford Edge. Taken to local Ford garage, was told it was rear differential vent, so this part was replaced. I was told this problem was a prior recall. Continued to have leak from rear of vehicle after repair was done, so vehicle was brought in again, they were advised by Ford that the prior fix was the repair, and that they should next check the fluid level, which my local garage had also done, Ford then advised them to underfill the fluid to below the differential vent level as the correction. My question is this, is it safe to do this or will this damage my vehicle or cause a safety issue if my vehicle does not have adequate fluid for the parts to work properly.

I was driving my company vehicle when suddenly the motor lost any way to increase the speed and little by little the speed went down. I was able to move towards the right line. The vehicle was just shaking, I decided to turn off the motor and turn it on again and the problem disappear. It has happened twice already in my Edge. The truck is already at the dealer but according to a call I got on Saturday they do not know that the car do has. They have made some tests but so far no failure has appeared.

I was driving on the city streets and without any warning, the power steering kicked out. I didn't realize this and was already committed to making a left turn. I had to use all my strength to make the turn and stay on the road. After clearing the intersection I noticed the car was not accelerating, instead it was decelerating. The car came to a complete stop on the main road. I quickly put on my blinkers. The car then gave a "low engine oil pressure" error message. I put the car in park, waited a minute, and restarted with no further issue. I would have had a big problem if the car stalled out in the left turn or if I couldn't overpower the steering components and went off the road.

The vehicle hesitates at the time of acceleration and then will surge. The surging occurs at lo speeds and is, unfortunately, intermittent. A real problem in tight parking lots/parking structures. Almost hit a family in a parking lot with a surge of speed. The hesitations can occur at lo or high speeds when you accelerate. I have taken it in several times and they say there is nothing wrong. Don't know if it is transmission or accelerator? but it is dangerous.
