The vehicle was not shifting properly and was surging while traveling at lower and higher speeds. There was NO CHECK ENGINE light on or any other warning lights at all. The vehicle is in my name, however, my daughter drives 9 hours for college by herself and could have been at risk of injury had the vehicle stalled in the wintertime between Minnesota and Kansas. I drove it while she was home over the winter break and noticed it. I took it to a Ford dealer and they said the transmission needed to be replaced. I went from diagnosing there was a problem myself with no warning lights to the dealer saying this is very common for the Ford Ecoboost engines and that the car is not drivable at all. He was also concerned the low coolant level was due to an engine failure which he said they've also seen a lot of. The vehicle only has 57,000 miles on it, however, it is 6 months past warranty. I have read the Ford forums about this vehicle and there are SO MANY people who have experienced the same thing and Ford refuses to do a recall to cover their mistake. There needs to be a recall on this to protect consumers like myself. This is so frustrating. Now I need to pay out of pocket for a new transmission on a car that I need to get rid of ASAP after hearing about all of the engine failures. I know that would be next, which would put my daughter at risk once again on the road.

82000 miles on car. Torque converter and throttle body needs to be replaced

- South Mills, NC, USA

December 19, 2024, engine failure and seatbelt failure. The seatbelt went loose and would not retract, lights started blinking on dash, car smelt funny the air coming through vents in to the cab of vehicle, white smoke out the tail pipe and then warning to pull over, temperature, check engine. I pulled over and called a tow truck. After getting my vehicle towed to certified mechanic, they advised my engine and chassie was 2018 model even though the VIN list it as 2019. I contacted Ford for recall on these items and they said they only go off the VIN. I did research along with the mechanic and there has been recalls and TSB for these items and several others my 2018 parts should have been inspected and FORD refused to do so. The engine failure is due to the coolant leaking into the engine. Whole engine needs replaced. Ford is refusing to assist in this matter. I have filed an official complaint with FORD, CXH-03434375-W8X5T6. There is several others that I believe my car should be checked for. Why is FORD refusing to repair my engine and chassie parts that are stamped 2018? This is a great risk and liability.

vehicle shuddering at speeds between 25-40...vehicle has a little over 58k miles on it...found no recalls but numerous issues of same degree...Ford not wanting to take responsibility for bad product! Costing the owners thousands in repairs!

Slipping transmission, the torque converter clutch performance stuck in off.

- New York, NY, USA

While my vehicle was in the shop having the transmission rebuilt and the torque converter replaced, the techs identified that there was a continued shudder. At this time, after researching the codes on my vehicle, they identified that the EGR Purge Valve needed to be replaced. They identified it because the vehicle was running rough and should not have been after the items were repaired.

My vehicle had to have the EGR cooler replaced for the second time. The first time was when the vehicle was at almost 37,000 miles, the second time was at 129,575 miles. Just like during the previous occurrences, the check engine light came on and the message in my Fordpass app advised that there was a problem with the engine cooling system and I needed to proceed to my dealership. In this instance, I had it towed to the dealership rather than driving it. This is the same system that currently has a TSB issued for it.

- Valrico, FL, USA

The sensor on the EGR cooler failed. I have had my EGR cooler replaced two times. The most recent time was in September of 2024. In December of 2024, the engine light came on and the warning messages showed in the Fordpass app stating there was an issue with the exhaust system. After the dealership reviewed it, they had to replace the EGR sensor.

- Valrico, FL, USA

The EGR cooler on my vehicle had to be replaced. This is listed on a TSB issued by Ford, however, is not a recall. The first time it had to be replaced was 11/2021 when my vehicle had 36,949 miles on it. This was diagnosed by the dealership and the part was replaced. The engine warning light came on and the messages showed in the Ford app letting me know what was occurring and that I needed to go to the dealership

- Lombard, IL, USA

The contact owns a 2019 Ford Edge. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the check engine warning light illuminated, and the vehicle shut down. The vehicle was taken to a dealer and the dealer refused to diagnose the vehicle and provided the contact an estimate for the repair. The contact stated the air conditioner and catalytic converter also had failed to operate as designed. The vehicle was then taken to an independent mechanic for the repair. The contact stated that the purge valve and spark plugs were replaced, and an oil change was performed. After the vehicle was repaired, the contact stated while depressing the accelerator pedal the vehicle hesitated to respond. The vehicle was inspected by another independent mechanic at the residence, and it was diagnosed and determined that the spark plugs and ignition coil needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure but offered no assistance. The contact was referred to the NHTSA Hotline to report the failure. The failure mileage was 70,000.

Engine overheated while driving on the highway. White smoke came out of tailpipe during engine running. Coolant reservoir was empty after I parked the car and turned off the engine. Had to get the car towed to the dealership the next day to get it checked out and was confirmed that coolant got leaked inside the engine.

Cooling intrusion to motor, engine replaced

2019 Ford Edge has the same 2.0 liter eco boost 240PS that-??s currently involved in the class action lawsuit. The problem is that the coolant sleeve is too close to the toy he cylinder and failed causing coolant to enter the engine. I was traveling on the interstate and with no warning the hot engine light came on and engine shut down. The dealer confirmed that the mother need to be replaced with the updated long block that is being put in the 2015 - 2018 Ford Edge and the 2017 - 2019 Fusion/MKZ/Escape and MKC vehicles. The vehicle only has 75000 miles on it and has never towed or been used hard. We had the vehicle for less that 15,000 miles and now have a completely useless vehicle. Ford refuses to admit any fault even with the engine codes being the exact same. The 2019 for edge need to be looked into and included with the class action lawsuit for safety and consumer satisfaction.

engine coolant sucked into motor. Check engine light and temp light came on. Luckly was intown and doing 40 mph. Copy of repair order from dealer uploaded.

My 2019 Ford Edge SEL has 37,000 miles and I keep it maintained regularly. We were 2 miles from our house when a loud blaring signal popped on my dashboard that my coolant was very low and at that point the car started "sputtering". We inched it home and sure enough, the coolant was empty. We've had no leaking on the driveway at any time. We filled the coolant reservoir and the message did not go away. We had it towed to our mechanic the next day and he said the engine needed to be replaced!!!! What? NO WARNING!! Now 2 days prior (which was a Friday), my check engine light came on and I could see a white smoke coming from the exhaust pipe and the car hesitated. After a few minutes, that went away. Drove it to work and back - 4 miles each way. The next day it happened again and again it stopped after a few minutes. I drove it maybe 10 miles after that running errands and then parked it for the day. The following day is when it "died". I received no other message or warning until it was too late. We were told by our mechanic that Ford has had numerous complaints on this engine. It is a Turbo on a 4 cylinder. The Turbo part will eventually overwork the 4 cylinder. Of course it is out of warranty. Now I am spending over $6,000 to replace this engine. Why in the world would Ford even install an engine like this in their vehicles" And why are they not recalling them?????" My husband has always had Ford Trucks and Mustangs - We have always been Ford People. I will never buy another Ford - SO DISAPPOINTED!!!!!

Purge flow valve had replaced by Ford Service on 10/5/24. Car wouldn-??t start after getting gas. Check engine light came on. Code was Po496. Currently, upon acceleration @15-20 mph car starts jerking, buck, slipping, very hard to go hill. Took to Ford Service for diagnostic on 10/15/24. Told torque converter shuddering on PIDS. Recommend replacing torque converter @ a cost of $5200. Per, reviewing many complaints on this same model & yr many haven-??t had success with just replacing torque converter. It doesn-??t fix issue. Transmission had to be replaced. Ford does have a TSB 21-2389 that supersedes TSB 21-2081 out. It states cars with 8F35 transmission may have this issue due to the software in the power train control module. Instructing, to reprogram the PCM & the transmission solenoid strategy. After reviewing all complaints on this issue, this solution does not correct problem. I was also told by Ford service; this wouldn-??t fix the issue. From what I-??ve read the way this transmission is engineered will likely cause it to always do this. Because Ford Frankensteined the 6F35 (previous models) by inserting 2 gears in between existing ones, the transition from 1-2-3 will never be as fluid as 3-4, 4-5, and so on. Basically what is 1-3 on mine (8F35) is 1-2 on a 6F35. This quite frankly is a terrible transmission & only a matter of time before transmission goes completely out & someone gets killed. This year & model has numerous issues not listed here. Seems like as soon as warranty expires problems start popping up. Some issues pop up before warranty expires. This is getting dangerous & very expensive!

Sept. My car began bucking and jerking really bad. I was at 63,000 miles. I called Ford who said to get it in...the soonest they could get me in was over a month out. I told them it was a serious safety concern because of the jerking and that they were putting my safety at risk making me wait so long driving a car like that. I had to wait. I tried fuel injection cleaner to see if that would help, it didn't. I never had any codes or lights saying anything was wrong. Ford looked at it and drove it and the mechanics understood why I felt unsafe driving it, they said it jerked really bad. I told Ford I was afraid it would jerk and hit someone when leaving a light or cause me to get hit by jerking and pausing while turning. I was in there a few months ago trying to schedule my transmission fluid to be changed and they told me no I needed to come back between 70-75,000 miles. Today they told me that the transmission fluid was black with metal in it. They said I now need a new transmission at $8,333.
