2018 Ford Edge with a little over 25000 miles and serviced at the dealership it was purchased from. The battery will drain to less than 5 volts overnight for no apparent reason. Unit is on its second battery and it test fine. The issue is not consistent, sometimes it will happen only after a couple of months, othertimes after a few days between occurances. Its appears when when the car if turned off, something in one of its many computers is not shutting down all the required systems allowing the battery to drain overnight. Short of installing a battery disconnect switch, I', running out of ideas. Neither my wife of I feel safe driving the car, since it may leave us stranded.

I am experiencing a coolant leak into the engine of my vehicle. I was told there was a recall for many 2015-2018 Ford Edge's but it seems mine is not one of them. This is exactly like the recall I see that is 20V469000. I am trying to find out how to get someone to look into my issue and see about getting me included in this recall or any others that are associated with coolant leaking into the engine.

I have a 2018 Ford Edge 2.0L Ecoboost with approximately 68,000 miles on it. While driving the vehicle on June 12, 2023, the check engine light began to come on and off intermittently. During this time, the vehicle began to heavily shake and began to involuntarily jerk as though it was having issues moving forward. I took the vehicle straight to a Firestone where they ran diagnostic tests for 2 days. They tried replacing spark plugs but said that is not the issue. They recommended taking the vehicle to a dealership. An appointment was made and the car dropped off at a Ford dealership on June 21,2023. After running more tests, the dealership is stating that there is a manufacturing defect with the engine block which has caused coolant leakage into the engine, damaging the engine so extensively that it needs to be replaced. I was quoted around $8,000 for repairs. I have an extended warranty with a 3rd party company who is denying my claim due to the issue being a manufacturing issue. I have done research and found this to be a common issue with this year make and model and that the issue could cause a fire or catastrophic failure. After extensive research, it seems this is a common issue with owners of this make and model and this engine. There have been hundreds of complaints filed. This should be a recall as people can be severely hurt in the event of fire or catastrophic failure. And most people do not have nearly $10,000 to spend to replace an issue that is common and well known at this point. I have been without a vehicle for over 2 weeks now and have no idea if or how this vehicle will be repaired.

Brought in for a check engine light on. They found that coolant was leaking into motor causing it to Misfire. Dealer said a new long block was the only fix. My car had 64k miles and it cost me $8438.58. The dealer stated that Ford won’t help with the cost because I haven’t bought enough Ford products (This is my 2nd) or had my vehicle serviced at a Ford dealer. The car is currently going back in the shop on Wednesday because the light went on again after a brand new motor was installed.
