So, yesterday I was driving my 2016 Ford Edge with the 3.5L V6 engine, and out of nowhere, the ABS light popped on. The strange thing is, the car seems to be braking just fine—no weird noises, no loss of braking power, but that light is still there, staring at me. I know the ABS system is supposed to help prevent skidding, especially during hard braking, so now I’m worried it might not be working if I really need it.
Could it be something as simple as a bad wheel speed sensor, or am I looking at a bigger issue like a malfunctioning ABS module? Has anyone else dealt with this before? I’d prefer not to rush to the mechanic if it’s something I can troubleshoot at home first. Any tips or advice would be awesome. Should I be freaking out, or is this a common issue with the Edge?
