2019 FORD EDGE Complaints

Transmission has had the lumpy shifting issue at lower speeds/gears since we bought it used from a local Ford Dealer. This appears to be a common problem if the reports in various internet forums is to be believed. PCM was upgraded, didn't help. Now the lumpiness has increased to bucking, making the car close to undriveable. In addition when accelerating hard there is a considerable delay in actual increased movement, almost caused a wreck at one point.

Vehicle has 85K miles and shudders at 10-30 mph. Powertrain malfunction/Reduced Power warning light comes and goes randomly. Recently got Service Engine Warning stating torque converter clutch failed to apply. Diagnostic ran stating torque converter solenoid needs to be replaced. Have seen other owners with same make/model that have same issue or have had complete transmission failure or replacement.

The transmission has gone out at 111,000 miles. We had taken it to the dealer for it dying without warning and losing power like it wasn’t getting fuel. They put a sensor in it and said it was fixed. When we left the dealership it seemed fine but in a few days the whistling came back. Ford wants $9800.00 to fix the same problem in other 2019 but my VIN is not on the recall list. The Edge was jerking and shifting hard. Going forward when it was in reverse which are the same problems the recall on other 2019 Ford Edges. I am asking that you review this matter as I have found hundreds of people not being compensated by Ford’s unsafe design for the transmission in the 2019 Ford Edge vehicles. When I spoke to the dealer and Fords customer service, they basically said it was my problem not theirs. Ford wants $9,800.00 to repair it The transmission went out on June 1, 2025, after coming home from church.

The vehicle was not diagnosed by a dealer or independent mechanic. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure but offered no assistance. The contact was referred to the NHTSA Hotline for assistance. The failure mileage was 99,563.

While driving my RPM's dropped to 0 and my car stalled out. I was able to drive home by doing this a few more times. Then white smoke starting coming out of the exhaust and it smelled like fireworks. No warning lights came on and my Ford Pass app did not indicate there was a problem. I had it towed to AAA then had to have it towed to dealership. They told me I needed a complete new engine. It is a 2019 Edge Titanium with 4 cylinder 2.0L ecoboost turbo with 38997 miles! They started it was due to coolant intrusion. The 2018 Edge has a recall for this exact issue but not the 2019!! $12691.17 to replace the engine!

The contact owns a 2019 Ford Edge. The contact stated while driving at undisclosed speeds, the accelerator pedal was depressed; however, the vehicle hesitated and shuddered violently before accelerating. The contact stated that there were no warning lights illuminated. The contact had taken the vehicle to a local dealer and was advised that an anti-shudder additive was added to the transmission; however, the failure reoccurred. The contact stated that the failure also occurred after the vehicle was stopped and the accelerator pedal was depressed. The vehicle was taken back to the same dealer to be diagnosed, and the contact was informed that the transmission needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline to report the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 80,000.

The 8F35 transmission has started shuddering and jerking around 30-45 MPH. It makes accelerating on roads and highways very dangerous as the vehicle is hard to control. The shuddering and jerking is getting progressively worse. Took the vehicle in for TSB 21-2389 which reportedly addresses the issue, but it did not resolve it. Now Ford is quoting me $10k to replace the transmission. There are thousands of Ford owners with both the 6F35 and 8F35 transmission running into the same issue and being quoted thousands of dollars for a faulty transmission. Please please please do something to stop this mispractice.

At less than 60000 miles, the car began to shutter at lower speeds. It is the torque converter. Everyone that I have spoke with has the same issues.
