| Jan 2025 | POWER TRAIN,LANE DEPARTURE,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | Just recently as I was driving, I got off the freeway and my vehicle started jerking really hard when changed gears. It has been doing it ever since. I tried taking it to the dealership to assess the issue and they said it would be about a week before they could even look at the possible transmission issues and that I would have to leave the vehicle with them in order to get it in line to be assessed. After looking into my particular vehicle is seems that this is a common issue with the 2019 edge. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2025 | POWER TRAIN,ENGINE | 82000 miles on car. Torque converter and throttle body needs to be replaced | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2025 | ENGINE | 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. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2025 | SEAT BELTS,ENGINE | 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. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2025 | POWER TRAIN | The contact owns a 2019 Ford Edge. The contact stated that between 20 -30 MPH the vehicle felt as if it was surging. The contact described that the surging felt like condensation was in the fuel tank. There were no warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who diagnosed that the torque converter for the transmission failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired but was scheduled to be repaired soon. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and opened a case regarding the failure. The manufacturer referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline to file a safety complaint. The failure mileage was 80,997. | Crash: No Fire: No | 80,997 |

| Jan 2025 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | For several months, my vehicle had been shaking while driving and when idle; felt as though the transmission was slipping. When reported to the dealership and after constantly having the vehicle serviced, no issue could be found. Recently the vehicle stalled while attempting to reverse. The vehicle had to be turned off and restarted before the gears could be switched properly. No indicator lights came on before or after the incident. The vehicle was taken to the dealership and diagnostics resulted in the following: "Torque converter shutter gears 4 & 5 slipping. Abnormal signals and solenoid. Metal debris found in fluid. Replacement of transmission suggested." The advisor stated that the vehicle is unsafe to drive until the transmission has been replaced. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2025 | POWER TRAIN | Dealership stating transmission needs to be replaced. Just had it serviced in December 2024. The replacemnt cost is $9,300. Not worth fixing. Vehicle was shifting hard then went into limp mode. Vehicle was towed. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

| Jan 2025 | POWER TRAIN | Vehicle is exhibiting harsh engagement and hard shifting. No warning lights. Happens mainly between between 0mph to 30 mph. Can feel the car jerk.

| Jan 2025 | POWER TRAIN | At approximately 55,000 miles the car started to experience transmission bucking/jerking at the lower range of the transmission gears. The car jerks back and forth until it reaches a speed of 45-50 mph. Ford has recognized the issue in this model and has issued several technical/service bulletins to the dealers including Service Bulletin 21-2081 in March 2021. Their only solution is to reprogram the transmission. I had this service completed by a local Ford dealer in September 2024. Reprograming did not totally solve the issue. About a week ago the car start experiencing more severe bucking and the range expanded to the 15-50 mph. Car has 60,000 miles on it. Acceleration is affected during this. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

NO WARNING LAMPS OR MESSAGES. JUST HESITATES, AD NO POWER, THEN THE TRANSMISSON BLOWS UP, AND YOU CANNOT MOETHE VEHICLE . I HAVE SEVERAL REPAIR ORDERS | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2025 | POWER TRAIN,ENGINE | Slipping transmission, the torque converter clutch performance stuck in off . | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Dec 2024 | FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | I took my car to the dealership because the stalling continued, it seemed like it was happening after filling up with gas, especially when having been on E prior to fueling. There were no lights on in the vehicle, and there were no codes coming from the vehicle. When dropping it off at the dealership, I had just gotten gas and had the issue, so I was at 89% full. The dealership was not able to replicate the issue, there were no codes, the tested the purge and vent valves and everything was operating as intended. (At this point, I have lost track of how many incidents I brought the vehicle in for stalling where there were no lights or indicators, and no codes on the vehicle). Clearly this is a safety issue, and the dealership is checking and verifying all of the items with nothing failing. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Dec 2024 | FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | I reported to the dealership that when my vehicle was cold, it felt odd shifting. The RPMs would go up, but it felt like there was no power to the vehicle. At the same time, I advised that when the car was idling first thing in the day it felt like it would stall out. There were no lights on in the vehicle or codes for the dealership to read. After testing, the dealership advised the vehicle was operating comparable to the same year, make and model and there was no issue. Eventually, the vehicle would require a replacement of the fuel sensor and the purge valve, however, at this time there were no issues identified and the vehicle wasn't indicating there were any. This was dangerous for me, other drivers, pedestrians, and other vehicles. If my vehicle were to stall out in a situation where it was not expected, there could be an accident. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Dec 2024 | FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | I took my vehicle into the dealership after identifying that when putting fuel in, the vehicle was prone to stalling after getting fuel (typically when fueling from E). I brought the vehicle to the dealership extremely low on fuel, at which point they were able to recreate the issue and were able to identify an error code. The fact that I had brought the vehicle in at least 8 other times and the vehicle had not shown any lights or any error codes is extremely concerning. They had to replace the purge valve. The vehicle is clearly indicating that this is a worsening condition and it becomes more frequent. The vehicle is stalling more frequently. Why wouldn't the vehicle begin to show error codes and lights when the item STARTS to go bad, rather than in very specific situations and only after an extended period of time? This is absolutely a safety concern - anything that is going to cause a vehicle to stall while in the roadway should trigger a code or lights or error messages when it STARTS to occur, not when it is almost completely expired. By that point, the driver, pedestrians and others may ALSO be expired. It is absolutely not safe, and it is crazy that after going to the dealership 8+ times, them driving and testing the vehicle multiple times, that it doesn't show up as an error code until almost 2 years after the behavior started. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Dec 2024 | ENGINE | 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. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Dec 2024 | POWER TRAIN | I OWN A 2019 FORD EDGE SEL WITH 56,675 MILES AND MY TRANSMISSION WAS DIAGNOSED AT A FORD DEALERSHIP TO BE REPLACED. NO ENGINE LIGHTS CAME ON. THIS PROBLEM WOULD OCCUR BETWEEN 25 - 40 MPH AND WAS CHUGGING AND NOT BEING ABLE TO SHIFT INTO THE NEXT GEAR. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Dec 2024 | FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | I advised the dealership that all of the warning lights came on after backing out and putting my car in drive. The vehicle completely stalled out. The engine light was on. The vehicle had been at the dealership at least two other occasions (with no indication from the vehicle that there was an issue, no lights, no codes, no messages) and drove "like other vehicles of the same year, make and model". On this instance, the vehicle fully stalled and all of the lights were on, upon arrival at the dealership they located a code which indicated there was a short and they needed to replace the low side fuel pressure sensor. Luckily this occurred in a parking lot, rather than on a main road. The vehicle having shown no lights or codes prior is concerning, as it seems this was a developing issue and it wasn't until it escalated to fully stalling out that the computer system was alerting to an issue. This had previously been at the dealership 10/2020 and 5/2021 for the same issue (without any indication from the vehicle), and this final escalation occurred 9/2021. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Dec 2024 | ENGINE | 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 | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Dec 2024 | ENGINE | 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. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Dec 2024 | POWER TRAIN | Vehicle was not shifting smoothly when driving it. This had been an ongoing issue but was getting worse, especially in low gears. No lights or identification. I brought it to the dealership and they identified that I needed to have the torque convertor replaced. They did a transmission overhaul. Identified there were still issues occurring and shifting was not smooth. Installed new pistons, pump, shaft. Overhauled the automatic transmission assembly. There were identified Ford TSBs for these issues. They identified debris in transmission fluid, removed transmission, flushed and rebuilt. My vehicle was in service for two months, so not sure exactly when it was resolved but I do know when it was dropped off. The service department kept me updated and I had a loaner, but this occurred over the holiday season. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Dec 2024 | SERVICE BRAKES | The red brake light came on while driving the vehicle. There was no reason for the light to be on, the vehicle did not have the parking brake on. The vehicle was diagnosed by the dealership based on error codes and testing that the master cylinder needed to be replaced for the brake system. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Dec 2024 | ENGINE | 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. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
