The two bolts on the front of the compressor are fine, and frankly I do not know how long it has been like this. Is there any reason to worry about it falling off? I am going to have to replace the compressor myself at this point if i want the ac to work again.

The ac compressor on my 2011 ford edge needs to changed and when I took it in to the mechanic they wouldn’t do the job because the bracket for rear bolt is broken. I’ve attached a picture from a YouTube video for reference. The yellow box is the part and the red line is where it broke off. Is there anything that can be done?

Thanks @fishx65, i will give it a shot.

reviving an old post, do you remember how you were able to identify that this was the issue? My 2011 Edge just started doing the same thing. Also getting a message about the fuel lid, not sure of the exact verbiage. The stalling just started today while the fuel lid message is about a week old. Another strange issue was that the breaks were hard to press down for a bit but eventually went back to normal. 2011 Ford Edge, 3.5L, AWD 145,000miles
