CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2015 Ford Edge has a trend of the engine dying while driving, which is typically considered a safety issue.
Owners report the stalling while driving problem is caused by the throttle body needing replacement. The problem typically occurs at low mileage & so the issue has been covered under warranty -- although by now, the 2015 Edge is generally past the full warranty period.
The driver side carpet above the dead-pedal right by the OBDII sensor has no place to clip. The dealer replaced this carpet once under warranty but the piece of carpet did not appear any different. The issue is the edge by the dead-pedal cannot attach to any place and falls down on the driver's foot. If the driver uses his or her foot for driving (applying the brake) this could be an extremely dangerous situation which could catch the driver's foot and render the driver helpless. Ford needs to fix this issue by permanently attaching the top of the carpet to the vehicle.
Update from Jan 22, 2016: The car finally got back from the dealership and this is what they told us:
There is no fix for the sagging carpet. We have checked other Ford Edge vehicles for sale and all of them had the exact same problem. There is no place to secure the carpet except to make a hole and tie a zip tie up past the electrical.
That does not sound like a very good idea to be as the wires could eventually rub through the wires causing a fire. Therefore there does not really seem to be a good solution at this point.
