Description of the problem | The problem surfaced more recently over the last 5 to 6 thousand miles (current mileage 36,550) and is progressively getting worse. Manifestation: on a reasonable incline, where most other vehicles i have tested do not roll back between the time the driver shifts the right off the brake pedal and on to the accelerator while the gear is in "d" mode, the ford edge will roll back. Depending on the situation whether there is on coming cross traffic or not, one can depress the accelerator further and the car tends to slightly "shoot" forward. If there is cross traffic (vehicular or pedestrian) one must shift the foot back to the brake again very quickly, or else the car will roll back and hit whatever is behind. The roll back can, if allowed, continue for several feet depending upon the gradient. The dealer claims this issue to be normal for this transmission and has no fix for it. |
