2019 FORD EDGE Complaints

The Edge was taken in for routine service at 24,920 miles. I was informed that brake inspection and tire rotation could not be performed unless I purchased new lug nuts at an additional cost of $201. This was due to "SWOLLEN" LUG NUTS which apparently is not uncommon and is still being ignored by Ford.

While driving under 35 mph car shudders, goes up and down to 300 rpms. Car has 45,650 miles, it started around a year ago but not as noticeable but now has increasingly gotten worse. Car is scheduled to go in monday, june 12. After speaking with other owners of same model, they had same issue and claim ford does a reprogramming of the transmission but it doesn't seem to work that they returned to end up having transmission being replaced. I will follow up with documentation after my service.

I took my car in to have it serviced after I noticed it shuddering when accelerating. Mostly at a lower speed, 1st-3rd gear. I am now being told that I have to have the torque converter replaced which is going to cost me around $4700. This is from the Ford dealership by the way. My vehicle is right at 70k miles so something like this should not be broken already. After doing some research it appears that a lot of other 2019 Ford Edges are having the same issues due to bad transmission fluid at the time of production. I think that there should be a recall done so that people can get the transmission flushed and filled with new fluid, or get help paying for the converter to be replaced. And of course, my power train warranty ran out on it on 5/19/23.

Edge was running fine first trip of the day. Second trip, it lurched several times when placing it in drive. Drove to a gas station, filled tank, car barely got out of the parking lot and on to a busy street before transmission failed. Took it to a repair shop who states it needs a new transmission. 2019 Edge with under 90,000. Bought used 3 months ago.

I had no warning my car just stalled and there was no coolant and white smoke coming from tailpipes. 2.0L EcoBoost coolant intrusion can lead to corrosion, misfires, overheating, fouled spark plugs, engine fires, and complete engine failure. It has been such a problem in early model 2.0L EcoBoosts that Ford issued a technical service bulletin.
