I had my oil changed last year upon seeing some suspicious activity during this oil change at Walmart, they were dishonest and lied to my face about my skid plate missing bolts underneath. I told them there's is no way my mobile mechanic put all four back on last night after it fell off while driving. So they lied to me. I filled a complaint. My car started driving weird. Then about two weeks later my car while in park, out of no where wouldn't reverse the steering wheel way locked it hard to turn. And sounded like a broken garbage disposal. It wasn't drivable.i have a2014 Ford edge sel. I ended up having it towed to Ford dealership in Tustin and I remembered that I had just saw online fright before the oil change that there was recalls three online pee my vin in a search . I dropped the keys off at Ford and put the the recall numbers on the envelope going they could look at it. I was told over the phone what the issue was she is be about 1900.00 to replace. I told him there's no way it is that expensive. The party was about 200.00 and the job should only take about 1-2 hours of even that.I told him I was homeless sleeping out of my car with my daughter 5, at the time what are my options. I told him I had mechanical breakdown coverage he called me back saying the claim for coverage was denied when I had talked to them they were waiting for the dealership to call over with necessary repairs information. So I already knew he was being deceptive she and dishonest. I asked him to email me a list of itemized by repairs that needed to be done to the office so i could see what i could afford. Hey emailed me a blank email no list of repairs. I emailed him back telling him there's was no estimate and if he could resend it . No response. ong story longer dealership refused service to my vehicle. my harmonic balancer remains an issue after I replaced it myself and local shop did the timing. Powersteering pump has air in it. Steering wheel locks when driving. Loud sounds.

My car is in need of a new water pump. This is a known repair needed in Ford V6 3.5 & 3.7-liter engines 2012-19 Explorer, Taurus, Edge & more.

My car is in need of a new water pump. This is a known repair needed in Ford V6 3.5 & 3.7-liter engines 2012-19 Explorer, Taurus, Edge & more. The water pump is placed in the engine so that a simple 1 hr. repair takes 10-12 hrs of labor costing customers thousands of dollars. There is no reason for this to not be on the recall list!!!!! This is confirmed by Ford dealers. There is no warning that comes up until the part has already failed, also causing other parts of the engine to be repaired.

Pulled out of a parking lot onto a busy street locally, car lost power and the orange wrench light came on. Would not go, all the car did was jerk and sputter. Engine did not shut off but would only coast/roll into the middle lane and managed to coast/roll into another business parking lot next door to where I pulled out from and once parked, I turned ignition off and back on. Wrench light went out and car started. No codes were apparently shown when hooked up to the machine at the car lot the next day (wrench light was still off) this is very scary and very dangerous whatever it is, it needs investigated and fixed so us Ford edge drivers can feel safe when driving. Also 1 week before this my check engine light came on, same code 3 times came up for eval, emissions ECT... Now no codes are showing since the wrench light came on Sunday and my car stopped moving.

I DROVE MY 2014 FORD EDGE UP ABOUT TWO BLOCKS TO A BUSY STREET, AND ATTEMPTED TO MAKE A LEFT TURN WHEN IT WAS CLEAR / SAFE. MIDWAY ACROSS A 5 LANE STREET, MY CAR STALLED. AS MUCH AS I PUSHED THE GAS PEDAL, NOTHING HAPPENED. THE WRENCH SYMBOL APPEARED ON THE DASH, AND THE CAR WAS SHAKING. I HAD MY TWO BABIES IN THE CAR WITH ME, AND WE'RE LUCKY WE WEREN'T T-BONED BY TRAFFIC COMING AT US FROM BOTH DIRECTIONS. I WAS SOMEHOW ABLE TO COAST ACROSS THE INTERSECTION IN TIME TO PULL OVER SAFELY. ONCE I WAS STOPPED THE CAR FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES TO CALL ROAD SIDE ASSISTANCE, I STARTED THE ENGINE AGAIN, AND EVERYTHING SEEMED NORMAL. I TRIED TO DRIVE IT FURTHER, BUT AFTER ABOUT 20 MILES, IT STALLED AGAIN THE SAME WAY. AGAIN, I PULLED OVER AND TURNED IT OFF, AND IT SEEMED TO WORK WHEN I TURNED IT BACK ON. ONCE IT STALLED FOR A THIRD TIME, I HAD TO PULL OVER AND HAVE IT TOWED. UPON FURTHER RESEARCH, THIS SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM OTHER DRIVERS ARE FACING WITH THIS MAKE AND MODEL, AND IT IS A VERY DANGEROUS SAFETY ISSUE. THE VEHICLE GAVE NO WARNING THAT SOMETHING WAS WRONG (LIKE AN INDICATOR LIGHT IN ADVANCE OR EVEN A STRANGE NOISE) BEFORE IT STALLED, AND I HAVE RECEIVED NO COMMUNICATION FROM FORD ABOUT THIS SAFETY ISSUE OF WHICH FORD SEEMS TO BE AWARE.

Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2014-2016 Explorer, 2014-2015 Taurus and 2014 Edge vehicles equipped with 2.0L or 2.3L engines and front wheel drive. The support bracket for the front drive axle halfshaft may fail.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: The failed bracket could result in a loss of park function which can cause unintended vehicle movement, and loss of motive power while driving which increases the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Ford will notify owners, and dealers will replace the link shaft bracket, free of charge. Parts are not currently available. Owners received an interim notification detailing safety risk December 8, 2020. A second letter will be mailed when parts become available in January 2021. The recall began February 2, 2021. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 20S63.
Jan 9, 2015
Ford Motor Company (Ford) notified the agency on January 8, 2015, that they are recalling certain model year 2014 Ford Escape vehicles manufactured April 15, 2014, to May 8, 2014, and 2015 Lincoln MKC vehicles manufactured April 21, 2014, to May 15, 2014. On April 30, 2015, Ford expanded the recall to cover an additional 45,505 vehicles, including certain model year 2014-2015 Ford Transit Connect vehicles manufactured November 11, 2013, to August 29, 2014, 2014-2015 Ford Fiesta vehicles manufactured April 10, 2014, to June 17, 2014 and 2014 Ford Edge vehicles manufactured April 30, 2014, to May 21, 2014. Improper nickel plating of components within the fuel pump may result in the fuel pump failing.

Remedy: Ford will notify owners, and dealers will replace the fuel pump, free of charge. The recall began on February 27, 2015. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 14S30.
Jul 2, 2014
Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain model year 2012-2014 Ford Edge and Lincoln MKX vehicles manufactured September 2, 2010, to November 30, 2013; 2013-2014 Ford Taurus and Lincoln MKS vehicles manufactured August 25, 2011, to November 30, 2013; and 2013-2014 Ford Flex and Lincoln MKT vehicles manufactured September 12, 2011, to November 30, 2013. In the affected vehicles, the halfshaft retention circlip may not have been properly installed, and as a result, the halfshaft may move outward and disengage from the linkshaft while driving and without prior warning.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: If the halfshaft and linkshaft become disengaged while driving, power will no longer be transmitted to the wheels, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash. Additionally, if the parking brake is not applied before exiting the vehicle, the vehicle may roll away despite the transmission being placed in 'Park', increasing the risk of injury to exiting occupants and bystanders.
Remedy: Ford will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the vehicles to make sure that the halfshaft is properly retained. If it is not, dealers will replace the linkshaft and also replace the halfshaft if it shows evidence of spline damage, free of charge. The recall began on August 4, 2014. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-800-392-3673. Ford's number for this recall is 14S10.
