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.

Was driving the car and the accelerator just goes dead. This is the second time in 3 years it has happened while driving 65 mph. Very scary. Have to cruise to side of the road as the gas peddle will not respond at all. Ford already charged us $750 to fix in 2016 and now it has happened again. Very unsafe electronic throttle body was already replaced once unexceptable

First my engine light was flashing when accelerating onto freeway, then eventually stayed solid. Code came back as air sensors. I replaced O sensors up and down lean bank 2S, and the brake booster went out on me completely, followed by car stalling everytime brake was applied for longer then 15 seconds on and off. Long story short paid 2,000 on repairs. Then all the sudden engine lights back on followed by low tone rumble and power loss when accelerating to fast. I already replaced spark plugs and coil packs all 6, air filter and had 3 oil changes. Sad part just purchased the car 7 months ago. Havoc module to change ac to heat also went out on both sides but I disconnected an reconnected box on both sides to fix myself.don't know if it makes a difference on air pressure needed for engine.

While driving down the road the vehicle will exhibit a full loss of power. After pulling to the side of the road and turning the vehicle off and trying to restart it will experience a long and hard start. The vehicle will do this weather you are driving 5mph or 70 mph. This is very dangerous and has almost caused me to be in several accidents with my 3 children in the car.

I was traveling on hwy 441 up a steep hill and tried to pass a truck.the car completely lost power. I was nearly rear ended by another car. On June 7, 2018 between enterprise, al. And montgomery al. I was attempting to legally pass another car and the car again completely lost power almot causing a front end collision with another car at 65 miles an hour. Someone is going to get killed if Ford does not fix my car. I hope it is not your family.

Unexpected loss of power and wrench and parking shift messages shown on my SUV display. On 03312018 my Ford Edge sport AWD 2013 surprised me when an unexpected loss of power happen during an slow motion in a secondary road. Unable to manage my vehicle I stop at the nearest gas station using the slope backwards in neutro shift until reach the gas station behind me. Then when stop I began to read vehicle book and shut down the vehicle as recommended. After 30 mins I restart the vehicle and the loss power disappear reason why I decide to return back to my home. When I enter to the consumer report page from my pc at home to request info for any recall for this vehicle I find out that a recall number exist for this type of SUV. The recall number is 14S10 since august2014 but I never has been advised. Few month ago I went to the dealer for a review of a problem but they did nothing and said that the vehicle was in perfect condition avoiding their responsibility to tell me about any recall for this problem. I still experimenting the same situation since 03312018, risking my life and the life of other people in the road as my SUV continues without losing power but taken the pertinent precaution. I still very worry as the consumer report stated that in addition this failure may cause the vehicle to roll away if the parking brake is not applied despite the transmission being placed in park.

The first time I noticed a throttle sudden acceleration was when I was driving about 45 miles down a road and suddenly a thrust of acceleration jumped the vehicle and then even when I pushed on the brakes the car thrust forward so I put the car in neutral and it stopped, luckily there were no cars around. The second time it happened I was at a red light and the car suddenly accelerated on its own I floored the brake but still the car wouldn't stop and then put the car in neutral and the car stopped. There were no warning indicators to indicate an issue.

In the last 3 months my Ford Edge has shut down 6 times and goes to lump mode. After puling to the side of the road and restarting vehicle everything is fine this happens without warning and at interstate speeds so far I have avoided having an accident but its only a matter of time.I have contacted Ford customer service with no help I have taken it to Ford for service and they say there is not any codes in system and without them there isn't anything they can do. After doing research there are multiple reports with the same problem Ford needs to addressed this before someone gets seriously hurt

The contact owns a 2013 Ford Edge. Whenever the heater or air conditioner were being used, the vehicle would emit strong fuel odors and caused the occupants to feel light headed, have headaches, and stomach issues. The dealer refused to diagnose the vehicle because the engine warning indicator was not illuminated. The failure recurred. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 59,000.
