2017 FORD EDGE Complaints

The check engine light went on so I took it to the Ford Dealership. They couldn't find an immediate problem so they scheduled me for an appointment the next week. I dropped the car off today and they had it all day, finally dropping the bombshell that there was a coolant leak into cylinder 2 and I need an entirely new engine for $7k or I could sell my car and buy a new one. I'm still in shock and am doing research and apparently this is a HUGE documented problem: [XXX] and [XXX] I have been saving money to take my [XXX] parents and my 13 and 9 year old sons to Ireland in July and I am beside myself because now I can't afford it. Please don't let Ford get away with this. My car is 6 years old with 70k miles on it, I shouldn't need a new engine.

Have check engine light on . Saying bad purge solenoid. Replaced it. Light still came on. When I get fuel the suv bucks and stalls for a bit. Checked with a buddy at Ford motor company. Stated they know of the problem with it. But don't have a solution. Being an a.s.e. tech myself. And reading up on this. I see ford did recall the focus for this same issue. Why have they not recalled others vehicles like mine. This could be a VERY BAD SAFETY HAZARD. when a person is filling there car the extra fuel is now going into the fuel evap system, backwards. So it's filling up as system that is meant only for fumes. If something in this system shorts out or have a internal engine back fire from this extra fuel. It could potentially cause a explosion in the fuel system and with a full tank of fuel that would not have a happy ending. The nhtsa Must get on ford to fix this problem asap.

Check engine light keeps turning on and off, took it to Ford to get diagnosed. There’s a coolant leak into the cylinder 2 causing a misfire and a cracked gasket. Whole engine needs to be replaced to fix this issue, over $6500 worth of repairs that I cannot afford and Ford won’t help with costs. My car is still currently drivable but isn’t safe to drive long distance as it could break at any time while I have myself and 16 month old child in the vehicle. I have a website with other Ford Edge owners having the same engine issue and needing to replace them. This is the link; [XXX] Please hold Ford accountable to announce a recall on the engine.

My 2017 Ford Edge sport is having the same known adaptive steering issues that were covered on the previous two year models. I’ve received the warning light twice now that the adaptive steering system is initializing and I have to turn the car off or Manually select the ok option to acknowledge the msg. Nothing else happened or was obviously noticeable with the first time the light came on. Couple weeks later I had parked at a gas station 5 min from my house was out of my car less than couple min back in my car there’s no lights on to warn me of Anything when I start my car but once I pulled out into the road my steering wheel was at an obvious left turn position in order to be able to drive the car forward. I was less Than .69 miles from my house once on the road I made three total left hand turns to get to my home. And home the left last left hand turn into my driveway the steering wheel did something awkward and somehow corrected it’s self while pulling into my driveway and I parked then before turning off the car it started flashing again now this was the second time total I saw adaptive cruise initializing. Ive not gotten any other warning Info at all and the car hasn’t said or displayed any service due or required on anything just initializing and that’s it. I turned the car off and it’s been two days and hasn’t repeated anything. Yet. But the characteristics of my issue are an exact description of same car same model recall but not showing recalled for 2017 that. Can find. Could my car have been built in 2016 and in that been actually affected by the recall but somehow not included as one of the cars given model year Indicator?

I have a 2017 Ford Edge with a 2.0 Ecoboost motor that was recently diagnosed (by Ford) as needing a new engine due to Coolant Intrusion into cylinder #4. The car has only 57,000 miles and is said to have a known manufacturing defect that causes this. Fortunately I reported this issue to the dealer before it got too severe; however I've been told that the car can catch on fire due to overheating or stop altogether on the freeway because of this issue. From what I've also read Ford has numerous cars equipped with this engine and have thousands of complaints regarding it, though they refuse to do anything to remedy the situation. I therefore would like to report the situation to the NHTSA out of an abundance of caution for myself, family, and other motorists that could be impacted by this.
