2017 FORD EDGE Complaints

Service engine light came on, it was taken to an independent service center. The code was a "misfire" to cylinder 3. When the spark plug was removed, it was wet with coolant. This means coolant is in my engine which can cause irreparable damage to my engine. It is over $9k for me to fix. This is a devastating design flaw. Also, the backup camera freezes, and the backup warning sytem stops when the camera freezes, which can cause an accident

I took my Ford edge to the service department of Pine belt Ford. They let me know that there was a crack in my engine block, causing coolant to leak into the engine.

The check engine light would intermittently light up and then go out for a few months prior to system failure. In the week prior to failure, we took the vehicle to AutoZone and used their engine code scanner to try to diagnose the problem. Based on the result of that, we first changed the spark plugs, which initially made the check engine light turn off for about a week, then it came back on. We then replaced the ignition coils, the check engine light never went out. A couple of days after that, while I was driving home from work one morning, the check engine light started to flash at me, which it had not done before, the car started shaking, and the RPM pin started dancing but would not exceed 2000RPM. We took it to the dealership where they diagnosed a coolant intrusion in cylinder 2 and told us this is a known problem with Turbo Boost engines from 2015-2018 and that there is currently a class action lawsuit underway to push Ford Motor Company to make it an official recall. They recommended replacing the engine or trading the vehicle in for a new car. The vehicle was then towed to an independent mechanic, who confirmed the dealership's diagnosis and replaced the engine with a 2019 ReMan turbo boost engine, including brand new turbo hoses and gaskets. The total bill came to $8367.64
