2018 FORD EDGE Complaints

I was driving on interstate route 22 in Derry Twp. Pa. when the engine started to shake and the vehicle started to slow down , I know that there was a ford garage 2 mile down the road , and I managed to get the vehicle to the Ford garage. Upon inspection by the Ford service garage they informed me that there is coolant getting into the #2 cylinder of the 4 cylinder engine . They also informed me that it cannot be fixed and that the entire engine needs to be replaced . There is only 61,166 miles on the engine and Ford says that it is out of warranty and the owner is responsible for all repairs which comes to $7,121.01 . I have spoken to 3 Ford garages , TRI-STAR MOTERS , Blairsville, Pa. were my vehicle is , LATROBE FORD , and Greensburg FORD, and all three told me that they have seen this problem in there shop on the 4 cylinder Ford engines ! The service depts. stated that there is a defect in the engine blocks and that is why it has to be replaced vs repaired ! They said that Ford had a recall on some of the engines but not all. All these 4 cylinders Ford engines need to be recalled not just some of them ! It is obvious, just as in my case that most of these 4 cylinders are defective ! The engine warning light did not come on until I had almost complete engine failure and slowed down considerably . I am requesting the NTSB and the NHTSA to further expand the recall on these obviously defective engines. The vehicle owners should NOT be stuck paying over $7,000 for an obvious defect that Ford knows about and needs to take responsibility for ! THANK YOU IN ADVANCE !!!

There is a problem with coolant leaking into the cylinders on the 2.0L Ecoboost engines on the Ford edge requiring the entore engine to be replaced. Now mine is under warranty but I have researched and there are many many people having the same issue. I think it's time ford issues a recall since it's a manufacturer defect

Engine light came on, code it was showing was P0302. Took it to the mechanic the next morning. The shop said there is coolant leaking into the engine and the only repair to be had is to get an entire new engine. We purchased the edge used with about 72,000 miles within the last month. Upon further research, it seems that coolant leaking into the edge in the 2015-2018 models is very common, yet there is no recall for our VIN and no direct suppose from Ford if outside the manufacture warranty.

The trim pieces surrounding the front and sides of the moon roof fly off vehicle when driving. Has happened 3 times now, twice at speed when a large truck passed from opposite direction and once at medium speed it with no passing vehicle. These flying pieces pose a threat to nearby vehicles, motorcyclists and pedestrians. Dealer repair and body shop employees have seen the results when repairing. No warning lights or messages. In initial Ford Case # CAS24094836 (May, 2019) repair was covered under warranty. Second repair 8/13/2019 I had to escalate thru Ford Customer Care to get covered under extended warranty. This time the parts flew off soon after leaving dealer body shop so had to go back for 3rd repair. Fourth repair done 9/6/2022 done by local body shop.
