Edge Eco Boost 2.0L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 85,000 miles

Noticed my Fire Edge sounded like complete s*. Usual start up is quiet, but NOT lately - this b* sounds awful. The rattling at start up make you think something is going to fall out. The noise doesn’t go away unless driving at some speed. It’s so annoying and feels completely unsafe to drive with my children. My oldest won’t even let me pick up her up with her friends near, she walks to me (says it’s embarrassing). I did some research and to my surprise there’s a class action lawsuit. BUT NO RECALL TO FIX THE DAMN THING. The recall found was for 2017 and up of course I would have a 2016. Go f* figure.

Started out as a rattling sound. Rattled loudly on startup and when accelerating. Pictures show the flex plate as it was in the car and since the inside piece was completely loose, I also lifted it out to show it was actually two pieces.
