2009 Ford Edge

When engaging brake pedal becomes very hard to push and having to push pedal all the way to the floor where it slows finally and then stops. It does not stop when push the brake pedal like normal. Pedal at the floor still not stopping then finally stops but by that time I could have ran into another car or through at stop light. I almost hit someone because of this.

Advised by mechanic that there are issues with the brake booster master cylinder that are causing serious braking issues. He's seen this issue in many ford vehicles of similar age recently. Said this issue is serious and can cause major damage to vehicle and safety concerns for drivers and passengers if brakes go out when vehicle is in use.

PEDAL WENT HARD AND DOWN TO THE FLOOR. CAME CLOSE TO REAR ENDING CAR IN FRONT OF ME. FROM WHAT I'VE HEARD THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE AND FORD DOESN'T HAVE A RECALL, ALTHOUGH THEY DO WITH NEWER YEARS OF THE SAME MODEL. VERY DANGEROUS AND THESE CARS SHOULD HAVE A RECALL.. IT'S ABSURD THAT A BRAKE BOOSTER SHOULD FAIL AND NOT HAVE A RECALL WITH A KNOWN DEADLY ISSUE.

WHEN DRIVING THE VECHICLE AT ANY SPEED WHEN NEEDING TO BREAK THE BREAK PEDAL WILL GO TO THE FLOOR THE CAR IS UNABLE TO DRIVEN SAFELY AND COULD CAUSE A WRECK. WENT AND HAD THE BRAKES CHANGED TO SEE IF THEY WOULD HELP MECHANIC STATED THAT HE ORGINALLY BELIEVED THEIR WAS AIR IN THE LINE BUT HE STATED HE WAS UNABLE TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE AND KNEW THAT THE LINCOLN SUV HAD THIS SAME ISSUE AND WAS RECALLED. IF SOMEONE COULD CALL ME TO DISCUSS THE ISSUE THAT WOULD BE GREAT

THE BREAK PEDAL GOES STRAIGHT TO THE FLOOR WHICH MAKES IT HARD TO BREAK IN ENOUGH TIME WHICH COULD CAUSE A WRECK. I WENT TO A BREAK SHOP AND THE BREAKS WERE CHANGED BUT THE TECHNICIAN STATED THERE IS A ISSUE WITH THE ABS SYSTEM AND HE KNEW OF A RECALL IN THE LINCOLN MKZ FOR THIS PROBLEM. HE STATED THE FORD DEALERSHIP WOULD NEED TO FIX THIS AND IT SHOULD BE RECALLED DURING THIS YEAR MODEL OTHER FORD MODELS ARE RECALLED BUT NOT SEEING IT FOR THE EDGE

I HAVE BEEN TAKING MY CAR FOR AT LEAST THE PAST 3 YEARS TO HAVE THE BRAKES LOOKED AT. THE PEDAL GOES TOO FAR TO THE FLOOR. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO 3 DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS TO HAVE THE BRAKES LOOKED AT, ONLY TO BE TOLD THERE IS NO PROBLEM. I JUST HAD NEW FRONT BRAKES AND ROTORS PUT ON AUGUST 2019. MY SON WAS DRIVING THE CAR TO WORK THIS MORNING AND HAD AN ACCIDENT GOING THROUGH A TOLL BOOTH. HE SAID WHEN HE PRESSED ON THE BRAKES THE CAR JUST WOULD NOT STOP AT A GOOD RATE, AND THE PEDAL WAS SPONGIE. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL ON THE BRAKE SYSTEM FOR 2009 FORD EDGES. I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS COMPLAINT. THANK GOD NOBODY WAS INJURED, BUT WHAT IS IT GOING TO TAKE TO GET THIS TAKEN CARE OF.

I HAVE A 2009 FORD EDGE SEL WITH 113,300 MILES. I HAD BEEN EXPERIENCING BRAKE ISSUES WITH SQUEAKING AND HAVING TO PUSH THE BRAKE PEDAL DOWN ALL THE WAY WITH FEAR THAT THE CAR WOULD NOT STOP. THERE WERE NO WARNING SIGNS OR WARNING LIGHTS AND JUST CAME OUT OF THE BLUE. IT WOULD HAPPEN WHETHER I WAS JUST DRIVING SLOW OR FASTER ON ANY TYPE OF ROAD OR WEATHER CONDITION. I SAW FORD PUT AN EXTRA WARRANTY ON EDGES FROM 2010-2013 REGARDING THE SAME ISSUE VIA 13N02. I HAVE READ A LOT OF COMPLAINTS FROM YEARS PREVIOUS AND AFTER THIS EXTENDED WARRANTY. I THINK THIS SHOULD BE LOOKED INTO AS I HAVE A YOUNG SON WHO I DRIVE TO SCHOOL A LOT AND SINCE THERE WAS NO WARNING ABOUT BRAKE FAILURE I'M JUST THANKFUL NOTHING BAD HAPPENED. I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC AND WAS TOLD IT WAS THE MASTER CYLINDER AND A BAD POWER BRAKE BOOSTER. THANK YOU.
