after 5700 miles & 120 days of loving my Edge, I got a malfunction, I was at a stop light & light turned green, & gave it gas, I loss power & engine/tranny wined.. I got it up to 30 miles per hour & it seemed ok but every time I started from a stop it did the same thing, like low gear was not engaged & went to 3rd or so it was ok.. I was in San Francisco for Xmas & the weekend before I was in Lake Tahoe enjoying the snow, all with no problems, anyway I was only 5miles away from the Ford Dealership, so I drop it off.. They gave me a Rental of course & would call me today.. Lets see how Ford handles it.. Anybody with this experience or inputs, come on in...My rental is a PT Cruiser, what a piece of crap...

Things do Malfunction, especially with all the Electronics today, I just got my Edge back from the dealership, they replaced Trans Speed Sensor & Turbine Sensors (All under Warranty), dropped it off on 27th 3pm & really thought it would not be ready till new year with holidays & UPS Delivery backup, (Friday, Saturaday & Monday= they received the parts & 1/2 day to install them), Got my Edge on New years Eve 5PM. Love my Edge, I guess the sensors would fall under power train warranty..Experience with the Dealership was very Positive & will rate them High.. Happy New Year..

P.S. I confirmed that this would fall under power train Warranty 5yrs & 60K miles..

Anybody have this problem?????

I had this exact problem. I have a 2008 Limited AWD with less than 2,000 miles. I was driving to work 2 weeks ago on the highway at around 60mph. The first message was on the trip computer screen "ODO not working" the Odometer reading was a zero. Then the airbag light came on, and then the wrench light. At around the same time, I noticed the speedometer dial was at ZERO, although I was going around 60. Next the trip computer mentioned something about my tires not having the proper pressure. Next came the traction control light. At this point I was near my exit and once I could safely get to a parking lot, I turned the car off to hopefully reboot the wacky computer. No such luck, in addition to the lights already on, the engine light now was lit and the car would barely move. I drove the short distance to work, called roadside assistance and had it towed to my dealership. They diagnosed it as the speed sensor, and repaired it in about 4 days. Hopefully this is not a problem that will continue to plague me.

I hope this doesn't become a repetitive issue also. Delphi makes the switch and is installed on the End Cover Assembly, which is supplied by Metaldyne to Ford. It is actually quite an extensive repair because of the way the cable routes through the transmission. 4 days is pretty reasonable. Good luck to everyone.
