- Portland, OR, USA

The engine block was cracked at 62,355 miles (out of warranty) and had to be replaced. Upon further investigation, this is not an uncommon problem with this year/model of car.

- Aurora, CO, USA

The problem started off with the check engine light coming on and overheating. The Edge was swallowing antifreeze at a crazy rate. Then, while driving, the engine overheat warning came on and the power was decreased to zero forcing me to pull over. There was white smoke coming out and it had a terrible smell. I took my car to Pep Boys, and they said the Edge was misfiring on 2 cylinders. Their solution was to change the ignition coils. I got the Edge back and it was no better, and the check engine light came back on again and it would not start. I returned it to Pep Boys again, and this time they said the idle control valve was bad. They replaced it, and upon picking it up the check engine light came right back on again. I again returned it to Pep Boys, and this time they said I had dirty oil (even though I had a synthetic oil change 3 weeks prior), so they flushed out the engine oil and installed new spark plugs/tune-up. I picked the Edge up later that day, and again the check engine light came on. Having had enough of Pep Boys, I finally took my Edge back to my local Ford Dealership for service. They said that the entire engine needed to be replaced due to coolant leaking into 3 cylinders. The dealer said this is a well-documented problem with the 2017 Ford Edge 2.0L EcoBoost engine. I only wish someone pointed this engine issue out when I bought it!

I own a 2017 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while driving the check engine warning light illuminated also would miss when started. The vehicle was taken Mac Haik Ford in Pasadena, Texas, where it was diagnosed with coolant intrusion into the cylinder, and the engine needed to be replaced. The engine would cost over $8000, luckily I had purchased an extended warranty & it only cost me $100. This is a very common problems & Ford should be made to recall for this problem, since the engine cost $8000 Ford won`t do it unless made too.

- Buford, GA, USA

We were in the process of taking our vehicle in to be serviced and noticed that our engine light appeared. We were informed by the (Ford) dealer that a coolant leak occurred and our engine will need to be replaced. I am concerned because we typically follow the maintenance schedule. We are also concerned because we were informed that our extended warranty expired 4,000 miles prior. We opened case #CAS-44960379-N7Q8D9 with the Ford Motor Company to see if there were any open recalls on the issue. There were none. Further research identified an existing class-action lawsuit regarding our problem. We are taking steps to see if our dealer will honor our extended warranty anyway, but there is a chance they may not and may incur thousands of dollars to replace the engine. In doing so, we have no assurance that the problem may return.

- Auburndale, FL, USA

The Ford dealer confirmed that the engine was cracked and leaking coolant into the cylinders. The engine light was on and the car would shudder and RPM's would drop. Before the dealer confirmed the problem I had the ignition coils replaced and all spark plugs replaced. Issue remained unresolved. At any time, the car could stop and I would be stranded. I found numerous incidents exactly like this online reported by Ford owners. The dealer was very familiar with the problem as was Ford Corp. when I called them. This is a manufacturer problem and they are not taking any responsibility!! There should be a recall on this issue. I have gone to great expense and inconvenience. Angry Ford customer.

My 2017 Ford Edge is experiencing loss of coolant with no sign of exterior leaks, over heating, the smell of gas in the reservoir, loss of power and rough idling as well. After plenty of research online and seeing the tsbs from the manufacturer this is definitely a problem. This vehicle is my only form of transportation, being that it has been a problem for many customers of ford it is absurd that this has not been recalled and fixed. We don't work hard every day, spend over 25k on a car for it to have a common problem amongst many of the same vehicle and same year, that is obviously a malfunction of the manufacturer.
