Edge

  • miles
Driving on the interstate at 60 miles an hour the vehicle randomly lost all propulsion and died, which caused an immediate quick slowdown and almost caused a 4 car/semi pileup. Causing me to hit the ditch to avoid being killed by a semi. Vehicle no longer starts. Appears to be a faulty flexplate that caused engine and transmission issues to which Ford has been no help. FORD has only recalled the 2017 edge 2.0 for the flexplate issues despite the same engine being used in the 2015-2018 models. Countless mentions of faulty flex plates in the model year range with the same engine but Ford refuses to address the mass issue.

Edge

The flex plate on the vehicle has broken twice within 10000 miles. This is most certainly a manufacturer defect. The vehicle then runs rough, has a loss of power along with transmission shifting issues and can nearly die or not accelerate properly while driving, leading to several near collisions which could result serious injury or death.

The Flex Plate (flywheel) cracked twice now, First time was at 62,000 miles and second time was at 81,000. My safety was at risk the first time due to the fact I had just entered the Interstate and loss all power to the engine as my oil pan and crankshaft seals also gave way and all engine oil was drained out with no engine oil warning what-so-ever. This nearly caused a Semi to rear end me as I limped over to the edge of the road powerless. The wrench appeared earlier that morning denoting a transmission issue for the first time as I was driving to work, then at lunch time it died on the Interstate with no warning indicators at all. The second time it cracked I was also driving 75mph on the Interstate saw the wrench and heard a loud grinding noise and the engine would just rev up when I pressed the gas. I pulled over safely without issues, but the flex plate cracked again and took out the transmission this time. Both repairs were completed at a Ford Dealership and neither repairs were warrantied or covered by Ford

Automobile was making a loud rattling noise. More noticeable at idle. The rattling noise then became loudest with start-up. Temperature gauge increased, but did not get to overheat as the vehicle was discontinued from driving. Towed to Kenny Ross Ford Route 30 @ Blackhill Road Adamsburg, PA 15611. Initial evaluation done by Kenny Ross Ford: Cracked Flexplate. Further evaluation is currently being done for further damage with pictures taken. This problem has been well made to FORD in 2015-2018 FORD EDGE models with technical service bulletins issued. Class action lawsuits are being conducted. There is no reason for a cracked flexplate except a manufacturer error. Communication has been poor with Kenny Ross Ford, as phone calls are not answered or voicemail messages not returned. Thank you.

The 2015 Ford Edge started to not blow hot air, and eventually the check engine light turned on. Took it to the dealer and they tell me it needed a new engine, but it was covered. The dealer explained that there is a bulletin tcb is # 19-2346. However, today I found out by the sales person that it not covered and I have to pay for it. This about $7500. I'm reading several post that this is a know issue. I don't know why there isn't a recall or more press on this issue.
