2019 FORD EDGE Complaints

The contact owns a 2019 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while driving at approximately 75 MPH, the rear toe link became loosened and nearly caused a crash. The contact stated that several unknown warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the rear toe link needed to be replaced. The part was ordered; however, the vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and the contact was referred to the NHTSA Hotline. The failure mileage was 172,000.

The car will shuttle between 1700-2500 RPMs while in low gears. In reviewing online (NHTSA) it should be a software update. I went to get the update for $400. After the update was applied the service center stated the software update did nothing. From the service center: The issue is internal. With the updates it did not chance the outcome, the transmission would need to be replaced to fix the concern. The quoted me the replacement transmission and cooler at just shy of $10k. This car is barely worth that in good working condition. The car drives, it just shutters, I would not drive it more than 10 miles. There are no warning lights. The ECG was recently replaced $1500 and the Ford facility did nothing to fix the transmission. I have called three facilities in my area, and ALL OF THEM say there is a 3-4 week timeline just to assess the problem. I had to take it to a transmission specialist to assess. Ford is avoiding this problem. How many 2019 Ford Edge owners need to report this issue so that something can be done?

Detailed account: After my morning commute, the car started sounding like it was idleing hard with a strange smell. It didn't smell like buring oil or plastic/rubber. Midday, I went to a store 1/2 mile from my work. There was little noticable sound upon starting. I pulled into the parking lot, when I shifted into reverse to park, the car shut off. There were no warning lights on the dash. I shifted to park, then turned the car back on and parked. There was smoke coming from one of the tail pipes that lasted several minutes after shut-off. After 30 min, I turned on the car and shifted into reverse to leave the parking spot. The car shut off and the brakes were not responsive as rolled slightly down an incline. Again no warning lights, so I returned to my workplace and finished my day. We contacted a mechanic and scheduled an appointment as soon as they could get us in. Following the workday, I began the drive to my child's school (approx 3 miles city). Within 1 mile, the check engine light came on and the car shut off when I came to a complete stop at a light. I shifted to park then turned it back on when the light turned green. It shut off again when someone entered my lane and I had to come to a complete stop. Once again turned back on, and limped it to my son's school because I had to get to my child before the end of pickup time (my husband would not have made it in time if I had pulled over where I was). I tried to avoid making a complete stop but had to proceed through two 4 way stops, when the vehicle shut off again. I made it to the school where I could safely leave it and wait for it to be towed. Malfunction: Engine shut-off, lack of powered brack due to car shutting off Safety Risk: extended stopping time in the middle of the road due to time needed to turn car back on Problem has been confirmed by mechanic shop, internet research, and a friend in Ford service department as known issue (design flaw) of corrosion due to coolant intrusion. No recall.

Powertrain Malfunction/Reduced Power Several Repairs and full module replacement it is still not repaired. FORD keeps trying and charging me for new things but is unable to find a permanent solution.

In June of 2023 the car was sputtering in 2-3 gear. It went in to replace the torque converter. This was replaced and 10 months later the transmission goes out. I believe that the transmission when out due to the torque converter going out. At the time of the torque converter was replaced the car was still under warranty. I believe Ford is responsible as regularly scheduled maintenance was performed per there maintenance schedule, and at their dealership.

Transmission Components Failing. Ford said Torque Converter and Valve Body Failing Car shuddering when accelerating and gear change Been reported by dealer No warning lights or signals given

UNKNOWN My SUV started to shudder. I brought it to a mechanic, and he started that while preforming a transmission flush, a bunch of black gunk came out. He advised us that the transmission needed to be replaced or rebuilt. Ford needs to issue a recall on all 2019 Ford Edge’s. I’m worried it will blow up or cause an accident while I’m driving it.

There is transmission issues with shift i between upshifting especially at lower speeds. looking this up seems to be an inherent problem with Ford 8 spd transmissions
