I WAS DRIVING MY 2 WEEK OLD 2010 EDGE LIMITED, ON A HIGHWAY IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC,WHEN I WAS HIT FROM BEHIND BY A TRACTOR TRAILER LOADED WITH ASPHALT SHINGLES. I WAS PUSHED INTO A CAR IN FRONT OF ME AND BOTH CARS WERE TOTALED. DURING THE CRASH, THE COMPONENTS OF THE DASH WERE EJECTED INTO THE BACKSEAT. . IF SOMEONE HAD BEEN SEATED IN THE BACK SEAT, I'M SURE THEY WOULD HAVE BEEN SEVERELY INJURED BY THE DEBRIS.THE DASHBOARD STAYED IN PLACE. ALSO, THE DRIVERS SEAT BROKEFROM IT'S ANCHORS. THE AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY. *TR

THIS INCIDENT HAS OCCURRED 3 TIMES IN THE LAST YEAR. AFTER SHOPPING FOR ABOUT 15 MINUTES, I START MY CAR AND IT IMMEDIATELY MAKE A HARSH CLUNKING SOUND WHEN MOVING INTO DRIVE GEAR. THEN I HAVE LITTLE TO NO ACCELERATION AND MY SPEEDOMETER, ETC DOES NOT WORK. THE WRENCH SYMBOL COMES ON. WHEN PUTTING THE CAR INTO PARK, IT MAKES A VIOLENT, HARSH SOUND. THE FIRST 2 INCIDENTS, I LET THE CAR SIT FOR OVER 24 HOURS. WHEN I START AFTER 24 HOURS THE CAR WORKS COMPLETELY FINE AND ALL THE SYMPTOMS GO AWAY. THE MOST RECENT INCIDENT I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO DEALERSHIP WITHIN 8 HOURS OF INCIDENT. THEY WERE ABLE TO DETERMINE IT WAS THE TURBINE AND SPEED SENSORS, WHICH I HAD REPLACED. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF THIS VEHICLE AND FEEL THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL ISSUE. *TR
