2022 FORD EDGE Complaints

The vehicle experiences a noticeable shaking, shuddering, or vibration during acceleration. The condition is most noticeable when applying throttle and attempting to accelerate from lower speeds. The vibration diminishes or disappears once the vehicle reaches higher speeds. The issue occurs while driving under load and may be accompanied by slight fluctuations in engine RPM. The condition can affect vehicle drivability and driver confidence when accelerating into traffic or merging onto roadways. Known issues with the transmission and torque converter exists with the edge line of cars from Ford.

The contact owns a 2022 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the front passenger’s side seat belt retracted and failed to loosen. The passenger was unable to move. The vehicle had not been taken to the dealer to be diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 36,000.

My 2022 Ford Edge (approximately 97,000 miles) experiences a persistent shuddering condition that is most noticeable at speeds below 60 mph. The shudder can be felt through the vehicle and is sometimes perceived as an engine misfire. There are no warning lights or diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) present. This condition matches exactly the symptoms described in Ford Technical Service Bulletin 25-2154 (Torque Converter Shudder, issued May 5, 2025), which applies to 2019-2022 Ford Edge vehicles equipped with the 8F35 transmission built on or before June 30, 2022. Ford has also issued Customer Satisfaction Program 25L02 related to the Transmission Control Assembly on this same platform. Despite Ford formally acknowledging this issue through both a TSB and a CSP, no repair has been offered to me at no cost, and my vehicle remains unrepaired. I am concerned that Ford's response has been inadequate given the known nature of this defect. I am submitting this complaint to create an official record and to request that NHTSA investigate whether a safety recall is warranted for this known transmission issue affecting 2019-2022 Ford Edge vehicles.

The entire passenger side panel flew off into traffic while driving. It was an entire disaster and I've never seen anything like this before. We're told by the dealerships this has happened before by several vehicles.

On Wednesday May 13th the car started acting a little jerky whence putting car in reverse like normal. There was a thunk sound. But it still shifted. We then drove the car about 10 miles. Then later in the day attempted to drive home. It’s was over-roving while driving. Acting erratic. We pulled into a tire place to see if something was stuck underneath. The check engine light was on and there was an error message saying broken parking brake? They said to have it towed to a Transmission Specilist. To our horror. They are saying it needs a new transmission! A 4 yr old car? This is not normal. It worked fine until now. It would not move out of second or third gear. It nearly crashed.

I am reporting an ongoing and concerning issue with my 2022 Ford Edge. My vehicle has begun hesitating when pressing the accelerator and jerking or skipping, mainly when going from cruising/coasting to accelerating. Some days the issue is worse than others, but it has progressively made the vehicle feel unsafe to drive. At times, it feels as though the vehicle may break down while driving on the interstate in heavy city traffic with my child. After researching this issue, I have found that many other 2022 Ford Edge owners are experiencing the same symptoms, with the torque converter frequently identified as the cause. We had it scanned for codes even though nothing was showing up on the dashboard, and a code of U2107-68 came up, which doesn't make sense. This appears to be a widespread and recurring problem rather than an isolated incident. This behavior is not normal and raises serious concerns regarding drivability, safety, and long-term damage to the transmission. Given how common this issue appears to be among 2022 Ford Edge vehicles, I strongly believe this warrants further investigation and the establishment of a recall. Owners should not be financially responsible for a known and recurring manufacturing defect. I am requesting that Ford address this issue promptly and take responsibility for repairs associated with this problem. My family appreciates your review.

Ford failed to provide me with timely updates regarding recall campaign 26S09 as required by law. They said a remedy would be available by 27 April 2026. That date has now passed and there is still no remedy nor any updates about when a remedy would be available.

Antifreeze intrusion into motor. I was driving on the interstate going 77mph cruise control set. Lost power dropped to 65mph without warning. RPM shot up to 4500. Trouble accelerating. Limped the car home, took to have looked at. Was told need new engine do antifreeze in combustion chamber.

The transmission failed, yes it’s available for inspection. The car stopped while I was driving putting my life at risk to get into a crash with other vehicles. Yes it’s been confirmed by an independent auto shop. It has not been inspected by manufacturer, police or insurance. Insurance says it’s not covered so they didn’t give it the time of day to inspect. No warnings that I knew of.
