While sitting at a traffic signal light that had just changed I removed my foot from the brake and put it on the gas pedal. Suddenly the car lurched forward without any pressure being applied to the gas pedal. This could cause a serious accident if it accelerates at the wrong time.
On 11-16-2021 I put my 2020 Ford Edge in park, got out, and it rolled away. After I put the Edge in park, I opened my door and was moving a trash can, when the Edge rolled forward pinning me.
Driving on freeway within a minute of getting onto the freeway my check engine light came on, followed by engine coolant over heating light (first time it has turned on ever) and I lost almost full control on the freeway. I had to pull over to turn the car off. Waited 10 mins turned it back on could drive for a short distance again. I had to do this at least 10 times until I could get to an exit. This was while freeway traffic sped past me and I didn't always have a side to drive on. I was extremely scared and didn't have the ability to do anything about it. My car is a 2020 with only 2700 miles on it. This is not okay. I had my car towed to the dealership we bought it at and they are going to check it tomorrow, however my life was at risk being on the freeway with virtually no gas power to my car. I don't just want my engine replaced for a brand new car I want a new car. This is not ok.
2020 Ford Edge. Consumer stated that the vehicle jerks at low speeds. The consumer stated the dealer advised the vehicle needed to learn the consumer's way of driving. The consumer stated after driving 1400 miles the vehicle still jerks. The consumer stated the jerking aggravates an old unrelated neck injury. The consumer stated the engine shuts off while stopped at a light or stop sign. The manufacturer was notified.
Engine cut off while driving at highway speed in heavy dallas traffic. Required coming to complete stop to restart vehicle after crossing three lanes to reach shoulder of interstate. Dangerous. Daylight, mid day, clear weather conditions, had been driving 1.5 hours; mileage only 1,600. Dealer service dept ran computer diagnostics and no codes showed the problem. (numerous online forums have complained about this problem since back in 2005....very dangerous)
