Description of the problem | While driving vehicle both myself and my wife became very light headed and that was followed by an extreme headache and nausea. Had vehicle towed to local dealership they proceeded to do a tsb that needed to be done and updated the computer. We took vehicle back drove it and had same problem. Returned it to dealer and explained that there was no difference and to please take another look stating that this happened after about 30 min of driving. They could not replicate concern spoke with ford customer care they opened a case on this and helped get the vehicle looked at original dealer vehicle was purchased at. Said dealer is 1hr 40min away from where we live so once again had it towed at our expense they checked all that was done prior and did there own testing and also could not replicate problem at this point because being afraid that one of us might pass out while driving this becomes a big liability there is a problem with this vehicle and if the testers are not sensitive enough they need to look into better ways to test there vehicle there is only 22600 miles at this time on our ford edge 2017 not sure if exhaust or some other gas or chemical is getting into the cabin but what ever it is it makes you very light headed and the ford company will not address this problem the edge is very similar to the explorer in many ways and should be looked at the same way the explorer was checked out when they found the problems with exhaust getting into the cabin area both police and regular issue vehicles |
