I WAS ATTEMPTING TO PARK ON A STEEP INCLINE IN SAN FRANCISCO ON A RAINY DAY, BECAUSE I WAS AWARE THAT MY VEHICLE TENDS TO ROLL BACKWARDS UPON RELEASING THE BRAKE (EVEN WHEN IN DRIVE), I DECIDED TO NOT PARK IN THAT SPOT AND WAS VERY CAREFUL TO SHIFT INTO DRIVE AND GUN THE GAS SO THE CAR WOULD MOVE FORWARD AND NOT ROLL BACK INTO ANYTHING BEHIND ME. I HAD SUCCESSFULLY USED THIS TECHNIQUE BEFORE, BUT THIS TIME GUNNING THE GAS STILL RESULTED IN MY ROLLING BACKWARDS AND CAUSED A COLLISION. AFTER THE COLLISION, REAPPLYING THE GAS MADE THE CAR MOVE FORWARD, BUT NOW THE DAMAGE WAS DONE. I DO NOT KNOW IF THIS IS A GEAR SELECTOR PROBLEM, AN ISSUE WITH THE CAR IN THE GREAT DEAL IT ROLLS BACK ON HILLS, OR A COMBINATION OF BOTH, BUT THIS IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY ISSUE AND WAS NOT BROUGHT TO OUR ATTENTION WHEN PURCHASING THE VEHICLE OR IN ANY OF THE SAFETY INFORMATION WE READ TO DATE ESPECIALLY CONSIDERING THE HILLY ENVIRONMENT IN THE BAY AREA. IF THE VEHICLE HAD A MANUAL 4WD SELECTOR LIKE MY OLD FORD RANGER DID, SWITCHING THIS ON WOULD RESOLVE THIS ISSUE ON HILLS, AND ALLOWING IT TO BE SHUT OFF DURING NORMAL DRIVES WOULD STILL RESERVE THE FUEL ECONOMY THAT FORD WAS GOING FOR WITH THIS MODEL. *TR

I HOPE AND I PRAY THAT SOMEONE WILL BE AN ANGEL FOR US TO HELP US. WE AS AN INDIVIDUAL CAN NOT FIGHT A BIG COMPANY LIKE FORD MOTORS, WE ARE HELPLESS. PLEASE HELP US. TOO MANY COMPLAINT ON FORD 2010 ACCELERATION PROBLEM THAT HAD INJURED MANY MANY AND PUT A LOT OF PEOPLES LIFE IN DANGER. I BOUGHT MY FORD LAST YEAR FROM AN AUTO DEALER. THE FIRST TIME I NOTICED THE ACCELERATION PROBLEM, I WAS PARKING MY CAR IN A PARKING LOT AND MY CAR ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN AND I WENT ON THE GRASS. THE SECOND TIME I WAS PARKING IN MY GARAGE AND THE CAR ACCELERATED AGAIN ON ITS OWN AND I ALMOST PUSH MY SONS THROUGH THE GARAGE DOOR. THE THIRD TIME IT HAPPENED IT ACCELERATED AGAIN ON ITS OWN AND THE BRAKE DID NOT WORK. I HIT A PARKED CAR IN A SMALL TOWNHOUSE PARKING LOT. MY CAR AND THE OTHER CAR WAS DAMAGED. POLICE REPORT WAS FILED AND MY AUTO INSURANCE FIXED THE 3 CARS INVOLVED. I WAS SCARED I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO DIE THAT DAY. SINCE THIS TIME I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM WITH THE FORD COMPANY BUT THEY'RE NOT TAKING ANY RESPONSIBILITY ON THE MATTER. I THEN WENT ON THE INTERNET TO RESEARCH ON THIS PROBLEM. FOUND OUT THAT THERE ARE LOTS AND LOT OF COMPLAIN ON THIS ACCELERATING PROBLEM WITH FORD EDGE 2010. YET FORD CLAIMED THERE IS NO RECALL ON THE MODEL. WHEN IS FORD GOING TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY AND FIX THE PROBLEM. ARE THEY WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO GET KILLED BEFORE ATAKING CARE OF THIS SITUATION. PLEASE HELP US. YOU ARE THE LAST HOPE. I AM PAYING FOR THE CAR BUT I AM TOO AFRAID TO DRIVE IT ITS BEEN PARKED SINCE THE ACCIDENT. PLEASE HELP. *TR

I BOUGHT A USED 2010 FORD EDGE LAST YEAR AUGUST FROM CONNICELLI DEALER IN CONSHOHOKEN PA. THE SAME DAY I BOUGHT THE CAR, ON MY WAY HOME I NOTICED THAT THE BRAKE HAS A PROBLEM. TOOK IT BACK AND WAS FIXED. RIGHT AFTER THIS., I WAS PARKING IN A SMALL PARKING LOT , THE CAR ACCELERATED ON HIS OWN AND WENT ON THE GRASS. THE SECOND TIME I WAS PARKING IN FRONT OF MY GARAGE, THE CAR ACCELERATED AGAIN AND I ALMOST DRAG MY SECOND CAR TO THE BASEMENT. THE THIRD TIME, I WAS PARKING IN SMALL PARKING LOT AND IT ACCELERATED AGAIN. ONLY THIS TIME, THE CAR CRASH INTO PARKED CAR AND THE CAR HIT ANOTHER CAR. MY CAR AND TWO OTHER CARS WAS DAMAGED. THANK GOD, NOBODY WAS IN THE TWO CARS. THE 3 CARS LOOK LIKE IT WAS A HIGHWAY AUTO ACCIDENT. I AM NOT SURE IF THE US GOVERNMENT IS GOING TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT FORD AND THE ACCELERATION PROBLEM UNTIL WHEN IT KILLS ONE OF THEIR OWN. ORDINARY CITIZEN DO NOT COUNT. FORD COMPANY IS A GIANT, MEGA COMPANY THAT HELPS WHEN IT COMES TO POLITICIANS IN US. I AM SCARED OF THIS CAR. IT ALMOST KILL ME. FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS ON THIS MONSTER HEARTLESS COMPANY SIDE. KILLING INNOCENT PEOPLE BECAUSE OF THEIR POWER IN THIS COUNTRY. FORD COMPANY ARE UNTOUCHABLE. CONSUMERS JUST HAVE TO LIVE WITH IT. THE ONLY TIME YOU PROBABLY GET A SOLUTION WILL BE WHEN ONE OF THE TOPS GET KILLED IN A FORD AUTO ACCIDENT OCCURRING WITH AN ACCELERATION PROBLEM. THEN YOU WILL HEAR IT THE CNN. SHAME ON ALL THAT KNOWS THIS ACCELERATION PROBLEM AND NOT DOING ANYTHING. WILL IT BE DIFFERENT IF ITS YOUR MOTHER, FATHER, WIFE, HUSBAND, DAUGHTER, SON OR GRANDCHILDREN. I AM 56 YEAR OLD AND I HAVE DRIVEN DIFFERENT CARS, NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT UNTIL I BOUGHT THIS FORD EDGE. DO THE RIGHT THING. FORD COMPANY YOU'RE SELLING US A LEMON AND YOU KNOW IT. YOU NEED TO PAY FOR THIS KILLINGS. US FEDERAL GOVERNMENT, YOU'RE OUR LAST HOPE. PLEASE HELP US. *TR

TODAY, MY WIFE BROUGHT HER 2010 FORD EDGE IN FOR THE 3RD TIME IN A MATTER OF 3 WEEKS, TO THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP. THE PROBLEM IS WHILE SHE IS DRIVING, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WILL COME ON AND THE ENGINE WILL STALL LEAVING HER STRANDED IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC, AFTER A MINUTE SHE CAN RESTART IT BUT IT HAPPENS SHORTLY AFTER THAT. THEY HAD REPLACED A SENSOR ON THE LAST VISIT BUT YET AGAIN TODAY THE LIGHT CAME BACK ON AND IT STALLED SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE SHE COULD GET IT HOME. THIS PLACES MY WIFE AND OTHERS IN TRAFFIC WITH HER IN DANGER AS WHEN THE CAR STALLS THERE IS NO WAY TO WARN OTHER DRIVERS AND COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. I DO NOT BELIEVE THE DEALERSHIP HAS ANY CLUE AS TO WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THIS VEHICLE. I HAVE DONE SOME RESEARCH ONLINE USING GOOGLE AND HAVE FOUND THERE ARE MANY OTHERS OUT THERE WHO SEEM TO HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AND NO ONE SEEMS TO HAVE A DEFINITE REASON AS TO WHY. *TR
