| Vehicle was taken to power ford in valencia for standard service a week ago. 41,000 miles new tires bought- was told all was ok. one week later i am driving when suddenly speedometer stops and milegage is reading --- grinding nois then a wrench icon aoppears which means the powertrain is malfunctiong, then the air bag light went on and then an ! icon which means there is a problem with tires. terrified, i called power ford and told ot bring it in... i was less than a half a mile away, and put on my hazard lights and barely made it th e few clocks to the dealership. this si a haunting problem that i have read at least a dozen comments about the power train. had i been ion teh freeway i dont think i would be alive. please investigate this issue with the ford edge. i di not know the outcome at all.thank you | |||

| On 3/22/11 i was involved in a collision with 4 other vehicles; my 2008 ford edge limited was totalled. none of my airbags deployed. the driver side was so smashed; they were unable to get me out that way so they made me crawl out of the passenger side, which was difficult b/c all the damage was the front and driver side, and i was wedged in. officials, witnesses, and the other drivers involved in the accident were amazed that i survived the accident, according to them i should have been dead; they were shocked i was 'ok'. the claim has been processed; lien holders are being paid and my portion will direct deposited next week. the thing is, i'm not ok. airbags are there for the protection of driver and passengers, but none of my airbags deployed (easily verifiable). i don't want a long drug out lawsuit with ford for the airbag issue. all i want is a new ford edge limited of my choosing with free maintenance, parts (i'll pay labor) for as long as i own the car. if they will not honor my request, i will notify tv stations, radio and an attorney. | |||

| 2008 ford edge. speed, about 25-30 mph in heavy traffic. 2008 ford edge was struck from behind by a truck and pushed into the car in front. 1) no air bags deployed; 2) the back of the driver's seat (electriclly controlled seat) let go on impact, leaving the driver lying on an essentially flat seat. the car was totaled by the insurance company. ** why did the seat let go; ** why didn't the front air bag deploy. injuries were minor: concussion. *** this is the correct vin # - your form will not accept the vin. *tr | |||
