Component: FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain model year 2012-2013 Edge vehicles manufactured from September 2, 2010, through April 25, 2013, and equipped with 2.0L engines. The fuel line pulse damper metal housing may crack as a result of an improper manufacturing process. A cracked fuel line pulse damper housing may result in a combination of fuel odor, weepage, or a continuous leak while the fuel system is pressurized.
Consequence: A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source may result in a fire.
Remedy: Ford will notify owners, and dealers will replace the fuel line with one that does not have a damper, free of charge. The safety recall began on February 25, 2014. Owners may contact Ford at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 13S13. IMPORTANT: This recall supersedes recall 12V-438. All vehicles that have been remedied under the previous recall need to have the current remedy applied.

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: 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.
The panoramic sun roof exploded while going down the highway sending glass flying in the air. The sunroof shade was not open so the driver and 2 infants in the back seat were not injured. I contacted Ford Motor Company and was given a case number CZH-03059174. They directed me to turn it in to my insurance company which I did not do. I took the vehicle to the body shop, they found a replacement and installed it for less than my insurance deductible.
Back up Camera goes in and out, it's flips upside down and do wired things , it also say call dealership, the picture sometimes be in reverse , and brake light stays on have to pump brake in order for it to go off.
1. My safety system/camera system is no longer working properly. The screen displays either a black/blank screen, an inverted (upside down) image, or an image that appears to be zoomed in to a very small viewing area. The alerts (beeping) does not function consistently when backing up. The horn does not always work. At times the entire electrical display including the sound system will reset without prompting. The back door hatch will actively close even when there is something in the opening. 2. Safety is at risk because the video system is in place as a secondary alert system to prevent accident or injury. The horn is a necessary item. If the electrical system should reset during operation this could cause an accident. The rear hatch could cause injury if it does close. 3. These issues have been witnessed by other people, but not in a dealership or service center because these places charge outrageous fees. 4. No inspection done by manufacturer/police/insurance. At time of state regulated inspection all aspects pertinent to that were functional 5. These issues began over a year ago with camera malfunction, the other issues have become present throughout that time.

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.
Starting about a year and a half ago, my backup camera would either say “camera is unavailable, contact dealership” or be upside down or some sort of distorted image. Sometimes the camera works. It poses a risk to me and others.sometimes the camera will cut out and go black after I have started backing up with it. No other warning lights have come on. Other ford edges have been recalled for the same issue but not the 2013.
Breaks went out on car.started out only when I hit a bump I’d loose them… turn car off and pump them back… now they are just gone! Replaced pads rotors calipers, now changing master cylinder.. from what I’ve read that won’t help but have to try! They should really put a recall out for this!
The contact owns a 2013 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while reversing, the camera was inoperable. The contact referenced NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V572000 (BACK OVER PREVENTION); however, the VIN was not included in the recall. The vehicle was driven to a dealer. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 141,000.
My backup camera continues to not work sometimes it shows upside down or black screen and says I need to contact the dealership. When I contact the place that I got it from it says it's not covered under their warranty in the contact Ford. When I contact Ford they said there was some rear backup camera thing going on and that the recall had not been issued yet?
I have several different things going on. First of all my rear turn signals do not work, nor do my rear hazard lights. I've taken it to a mechanic who has extensively looked at this and has determined that it's the body control modular and is suggested replacement. I have been waiting for several months for this part to come in but he keeps telling me it's on back order. Also, my radiator fan/assembly went bad and had to be replaced. Upon the mechanic installing the new fan assembly, I had numerous fuses blown and that is when my blinker and hazard light issue started. This is a major safety concern as signaling the direction that you're turning is very important to other drivers. Additionally, it is against the law not to use signals. I'm constantly in fear that someone is going to rear in me because of my inability to signal when switching lanes and or turning. Additionally, my back up camera stopped working shows a black screen with a notice to contact the dealer. Another issue I have is that my door ajar light is illuminated all the time. I often feel unsafe and fear that the door may just come open at any time, I am unable to lock my doors with the internal lock , which means my doors are left unlocked while I'm in the vehicle. Also, the interior lights stay on for awhile when car turned off, thus putting more strain on the battery, which I've just replaced. Plus, the dome light will not go off until you accelerated to about 20 mph, however, when putting the car in reverse there's no way to get the lights to turn off in this causes visibility issues at night. That in conjunction with my backup camera not working makes it a very dangerous situation when going in reverse. I also detect the odor of gasoline which lingers in my vehicle for some time after getting fuel. I'm scared that there's a leak and if so the potential of a fire is very concerning. And I've noticed that my gas mileage is not really good and I'm not sure if that's related.
The airbags did not deploy when the car was in a front and rear end collision on 2/12/26. Injuries occurred. No one has confirmed the problem. The car was taken to a Collison center to be evaluated but am uncertain if that part has been evaluated. There were not symptoms of failure beforehand.
The brake booster went out first, replaced the brake booster and master cylinder, 2 calipers, brake pads, and rotors. The next option was to replace the brake lines. The problem was not solved; the calipers still locked up.
I have a 2013 FORD Edge that the ABS module has gone out deeming the vehicle unsafe to drive. We have spoken to several FORD dealership team members and have all stated that the part should be recalled and the part is unavailable until sometime next year or later. We were told by FORD customer service, that in order to escalate the issue, then we needed to take to a dealership. We dropped the car off and never heard back from anyone and finally after many attempts to contact the dealership, I was finally able to get a team member on the line. They then tell us until we pay the diagnostic fees, they can't do anything. We were never told that from the start of the initial call and are back to square one. The car has no anti-lock brakes and is deemed unsafe to drive, please assist in anyway possible.
The ABS Control Module failed in my 2013 Ford Edge. I no longer have anti-lock brakes and my wife does not feel safe driving the car. I talked to a number of different Ford Dealerships and every service technician I talked to told me they don't know how this issue is not a recall as it is happening so often that the part is back ordered by a year. I had the problem confirmed by in independent service center and was informed to bring to a Ford Dealership. The vehicle is now at a Ford Dealership awaiting diagnosis but they all said they know what the problem is and they can't get the part. There are multiple warning lamps going off when you start the vehicle. ABS warning lamp, service advancetrac lights and brake warning lamps. This issue just popped up and we brought to an independent service center to get fixed and they were aware of this issue and told me that you can't get the part and to contact Ford. They also told us that if you push the brakes too hard it could cause them to lock up which is a huge safety concern and now my wife will not drive the vehicle and I can not sell it to anyone like that so we are stuck. Please help.
This is on a 2013 Ford Edge with Adaptive Cruise Control. The brakes failed and went completely to the floor, putting the driver/passengers at danger along with other vehicles in the vicinity. The ABS control module with HCU is the part that failed. Ford part # CT4Z-2C405-A. Per the dealership and per Ford, this part is now obsolete and unavailable, which means the vehicle is currently unsafe to drive and unusable. Ford does not have any plan at the moment to correct this issue.
The brake booster had a recall but it should have never just have been the booster. The brake system on this is dangerous. I had the booster replaced and the valve got stuck in the HCU and cause brakes to fail. This has been a common issue amongst people and yet this is not a recall. The dealership just quoted me $3200. That's absurd for an issue thats obviously a common huge problem for people
