2010 Ford Edge Problems

I received an email saying I need to replace the airbag; I think it expired.

I took my 2010 ford edge to have a air bag recall repaired. The air bag was fixed, the air bag light cleared. I drove about 3 miles home and the light reappeared, I checked the code and it was B2293-03 air bag fault. My wife called right away and told them the light came on and the car can't be inspected until it's clear. They told my wife it would be $200 to take a look at a repair they literally just took their hands off of. All I want is this safety feature fixed right without the $200 fee which is crazy when I just picked it up.

The known defective brake booster which failed suddenly has been confirmed as defective by ford dealers and its components failed resulting in catastrophic brake failure and not being able to stop. There were no warning lights or signs available it failed suddenly while driving also resulting in a near accident. I called ford dealer and corporate who Informed me I had missed the 10 year year window for the defective and they would be unable to replace it.

There is a noise coming from the interior of my car, near the brakes that makes a high pitched noise and is causing the brake to feel a bit hard when pressed. It is believed that the brake booster has malfunctioned. There is a customer satisfaction program listed as 13N02 in regard to the extended warranty coverage for brake boosters. Is my vehicle eligible to be covered on this warranty?

Just bought used 12/4/23 from private party. Transmission fluid leaking on exhaust pipe, seen and documented by tech at Kendall Ford Anchorage, AK. Vehicle was brought in for Transmission and Engine Oil Service 91,000 approximate. Seems to coming from rear of transmission, where shaft goes in. Leaks on hot exhaust, burns and smoke comes in heater vent, Can see some smoke coming up from under hood when parked and smell burning fluid when outside. The leak is not excessive, as im watching the transmission fluid level. But my wife is now afraid of a fire. This seems to be an on going problem with the Ford Edge and other vehicles. Please help resolve this, we cant afford a repair of this large amount from what ive read for repair. Thank you, [XXX] & [XXX] Kenai, AK.

Complaint Filed Tuesday 18:14 hrs 12/06/2022. On 12/02/2022 I had a diagnosis at Marcotte Ford Holyoke, MA done my vehicle because it failed Massachusetts emissions CEL. Diagnose came back with the same description as the damaged fuel system and suspension which RECALLS, which should have been fixed before I registered the vehicle on 11/22/2022.

My car has a faulty latch system in the driver side door. My door is completely shut however the warning light for an open door stays on and I am unable to lock my car while driving as this light stays on. This is also causing my lights to stay on as well. This is a safety concern because I have 2 children and I cannot lock my doors from the inside of my car while the car is in motion. I hit the lock button and since my car is showing that there is an open door, they immediately unlock and stay that way, which is a safety issue not only for myself but my children as well. I’ve had this issue for a couple of years now and went online and saw that several other ford edge owners have had the same problem.

The front driver seat belt has been fraying to the point that there’s only about 1/2” of belt left to hold it together. It’s frayed above the buckle so if I was to hit anything & depending on the belt to save my life I’m screwed bc it’ll just snap. I’ve contacted ford who refuses to replace it under warranty bc it’s been over 6yrs which is wrong bc it is a genuine ford motor craft part and peoples safety and lives depend on the seatbelt to save lives. It shouldn’t only be under warranty for a limited amount of time if it’s an original ford part. So bc ford has discontinued all parts and belts for the front driver’s side I can’t find a replacement for under $200! So this is deadly and I’m not sure what led to this level of fraying other than the mechanical device it winds up in. I always wear my belt and never has it been in the door or anything so I’m not sure what caused this horrible problem but it’s even worse ford refuses to replace it. I drive a 2010 edge se fwd it has only 88k miles and has barely been driven and one owner. I’ve looked online and seen that a lot of fords have had recalled seat belts. I believe this needs to be a recall especially considering all the front driver’s seat belts on ford have been discontinued and they don’t offer any other brand of replacement. How can they expect to ensure the safety of the driver of the car if they don’t have a lifetime replacement warranty on the actual belt itself or even offer a replacement for a decent price or a replacement at all for that matter considering all have been discontinued that tells me they weren’t that secure to begin with if they aren’t even available.

DRIVER SEAT ROCKS BACK WHEN ACCELERATING.

Hello, This is [XXX] [XXX] [XXX] . This vehicle has a shorted steer sensor part#8t4z-3f818-a. If traction control button is not turned off at start up, the vehicle will slam on the brakes and jurk the steering wheel while going around a curve. I took the car to Crossroads Ford for diagnosis. They inspected and stated it needed the steering angle sensor. I payed them $377.90 for the part to be ordered on 3/20/25. The part was suppose to be there 4/1/25. They never called, I called they stated it was still on order. Today I called again 4/29/25 and asked the parts manager where the part is. He stated it was Discontinued Product from ford and is not available. This is a required part for the vehicle to perform safely, I have checked all other means of order online all are discontinued. Please advise why Ford is being allowed to discontinue production and availability for part#8t4z-3f818-a. Thank You [XXX] no accident has occurred but could due to the erratic behavior of the vehicle traction control due to this faulty part.
