2019 Ford Edge Complaint Log

2019 Ford Edge Titanium Rear Lift Gate Glass Shatters. The rear lift gate glass of a 2019 Ford Edge Titanium shattered by simply and normally closing the driver side door without warning or symptoms. There was no impact of any object with the lift gate glass. Rear glass defogging heat was not on at the time. This rendered the vehicle unsafe to drive and cost the owner roughly $1000 to repair. It was not inspected by the manufacturer, but repairs were made by an authorized Ford Dealer. Local news channel ran a news story piece on similar occurrences, so it is believed this is not a random occurrence.

The contact owns a 2019 Ford Edge. The contact stated that the vehicle was experiencing excessive coolant consumption. The contact stated that there was a coolant leak. The contact stated that while driving at undisclosed speeds, the engine overheated even though coolant had been added to the vehicle five days prior. The low coolant warning light was illuminated. The contact was able to pull over safely. The contact called the local dealer and was informed that the VIN was not under recall. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic, where it was determined that there was no visible coolant leak. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was contacted and informed the contact that the vehicle was not covered under TSB Number: 19-2346. The failure mileage was approximately 50,000. The VIN was not available.

The contact owns a 2019 Ford Edge. The contact stated while driving approximately 30-35 MPH, the vehicle hesitated while attempting to accelerate, and briefly lost automotive power before slamming into gear. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer to be diagnosed, and the contact was informed that the transmission was faulty, and the torque converter had failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, a case was opened, and the contact was referred to the NHTSA Hotline for assistance. The contact stated that the failure persisted. The failure mileage was approximately 60,000.

Vehicle started making a repetitive "rubbing" noise and I smelled something burning, but unlike burnt rubber, it was a burning smell I've never encountered before. I was going about 35mph at the time this began. Within about 500ft, I slowed down as I approached an intersection and the vehicle stalled just as I was entering the intersection. There were no warning lights. I put it in park and attempted to restart it a couple times with no luck, then the third time I pressed and held the button, and it took about 4 seconds to start (seemed to struggle). On another occasion, I had just filled up my tank at a gas station, started my car, drove about 10 feet, then the car stalled. This time it restarted without issue. The dealership was unable to duplicate the problem, they were willing to try again after I explained that recall 20S49 sounded similar to the problem I was having, but I didn't end up leaving my car with them because of the cost of the diagnosis and loaner car. I believe my VIN should have been recalled, as there is clearly something wrong, but since it is not in the system as a recall and I don't have the money to troubleshoot it, I am planning to sell the car to Ford, as I cannot, in good conscience, sell to a private buyer when I believe the vehicle may stall. I figure if I sell to Ford, it puts the liability of the defect back in their hands, where it belongs.

I OWN A 2019 FORD EDGE SEL WITH 56,675 MILES AND MY TRANSMISSION WAS DIAGNOSED AT A FORD DEALERSHIP TO BE REPLACED. NO ENGINE LIGHTS CAME ON. THIS PROBLEM WOULD OCCUR BETWEEN 25 - 40 MPH AND WAS CHUGGING AND NOT BEING ABLE TO SHIFT INTO THE NEXT GEAR.

The Transmision hesitates and jerks while shifting at speeds from 25-40 mph. This is unsafe while pulling into traffic, and causes unnecessary wear on the drivetrain!. I have read about many others who have the same issues, with little help from Ford. We have an appointment at our Ford dealership. No warning lights light up when it acts up.

VERIFIED TRANSMISSION BUCKS/JERKS AND SHUDDERS ALSO TRANSMISSION WHINES UNDER LOAD. MONITORED PIDS AND VERIFIED TORQUE CONVERTER SLIPS WHEN COMMANDED ON AND SUPPORT WHINE NOISE TO BE FAILING OUTPUT PLANET CARRIER/PINION.

Since purchasing the vehicle in April 2020 with 19,195 mile on it, the transmission would always hunt to shift gears around 40 to 43 mph. When I asked the dealers about it they said it was at a shift point and with the eight speed transmission that was normal. Going faster of accelerating or going slower was always pretty good. Around the first of November 2024 it changed to all shifting below 40 mph and progressively got so bad that in traffic it was totally unpredictable, At times in heavy traffic we were nearly rear ended because of the up and down shifting. At that time there was about 91,000 miles on it. I went to my service garage and they check all the codes and did not find anything. They thought it was a torque converter issue and recommended having a transmission shop check it out. I took it to a local shop that we have used for over 35 years and they confirmed the converter was the issue and driving in town was ok but don't go on long trips away from home. The transmission shop ordered a new torque converter and did further research with suppliers and other shops. They received input that if the torque converter fails, shortly after the planetary gear will also fail. Since the transmission would be out, it was recommended to inspect the gears. It was discovered that two were very loose and one was extremely loose sideways and up and down. They said it was on it's last leg and they showed me the gear and what was wrong. With that, they replaced both the converter and planetary gear. If the planetary gear would have failed it is hard to tell what would have happened, especially on a highway or in heavy traffic. I feel this is a major safety concern of items that should have a life expectancy of 200,000 miles or more, not 91,000. I am not the only one with this problem either. There are many others dealing with the same issues and the repairs can cost more the the value of the car, not to mention the possible cause of an accident.

Transmission failed due to issue with planetary gear. According to the mechanics, this is not a part that can be accessed or maintained by the consumer. Yet the entire transmission is shot because of it. Cost to repair is $12,000. Ford is paying $5,000. Shouldn't they pay more since it's a defective part? I see reports of transmission issues across Ford Edge models.

My Ford Edge 2019 only has 68,000 miles and I felt it jerking at 30 mph. I checked with Ford, there is no recall. A transmission shop says the whole thing needs to be replaced because Ford uses cheaper parts on the transmission. Total cost will be $8,000. For a car with low miles. Online forums shows a lot of people have the same issues. Can they be forced to recall these?? Or help me pay for mine to be fixed?

What happened: The torque converter/transmission system failed. My 2019 Ford Edge (VIN [XXX] , 75,000 miles) experiences a shudder and vibration under 60 mph during normal driving, with no diagnostic trouble codes present. This matches the condition described in Ford Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) 25-2154 for the 8F35 transmission. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. Safety risk: The shudder occurs during acceleration and highway merging. It causes the vehicle to hesitate and lurch, which puts myself, passengers, and nearby drivers at risk — especially when merging into traffic or crossing intersections. Loss of smooth power delivery creates a hazard that could result in a collision. Dealer confirmation: The problem has been diagnosed and confirmed by an authorized Ford dealer, who quoted approximately $2,800 for repair (torque converter replacement and PCM reprogram). Manufacturer involvement: The issue was presented to Ford Motor Company, who acknowledged the TSB exists but denied goodwill assistance to cover the repair, even though this is a known defect. Inspections: The vehicle has been inspected by the Ford dealer’s service department. No inspections have been performed by police or insurance representatives. Warning signs/symptoms: There were no warning lamps or error messages. The first symptoms (shuddering and jerking below 60 mph) appeared around [insert month/year you first noticed].

The contact owns a 2019 Ford Edge. The contact stated while driving at approximately 60 MPH and depressing the accelerator pedal, the vehicle hesitated to respond. The contact stated that upon depressing the accelerator pedal again, the vehicle responded as needed. The contact stated that the failure also occurred while depressing the brake pedal. Additionally, the contact stated that the transmission was downshifting unintendedly while driving. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that the transmission needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 54,000.

Slipping transmission, the torque converter clutch performance stuck in off .

Transmission problem. Vehicle shudders while accelerating and cruising at highway speeds. No codes found, torque converter is shuddering between 1-300 rpms while accelerating and while cruising at highway speeds. This could cause catastrophic failure at any second. Reproduced and Confirmed by Ford Dealership. Has not been inspected by anyone else. No warning lamps or messages. 2 weeks prior there was a slight vibration when it shifted while accelerating that happened 3 times. Drove 400+ miles up to Syracuse NY fine. Drove back home and experienced massive shuddering when I was almost home. Dropped off car at local dealership that was thankfully within a few miles.

Transmission started shuddering when changing gears. Started happening at around 55,000 miles. Have done a transmission fluid replacement, and replaced the torque converter as well since mechanic said the torque converter was going bad. Slight improvement, however still being problematic.

2019 Ford Edge with 8F35 transmission, there were no warning lights or codes. Shuddering and jerking both while accelerating and at cruising speeds. At steady highway speed, engine speed would jump by hundreds of RPM a few times times per minute. Problem started at about 70,000 miles and gradually got worse. Changed transmission fluid at 85,000 miles, despite owner's manual recommendation to change at 100,000 miles. Fluid was completely brown, with no trace of red. Shuddering improved but not eliminated.

Safety Complaint – 2019 Ford Edge Transmission and Engine Shutdown Issues To Whom It May Concern, I am submitting this complaint to report ongoing safety-related defects with my 2019 Ford Edge, which I purchased new. At 30,000 miles, the auto on/off stopped working and was not fixed. After approximately 50,000 miles, the vehicle began shutting off after refueling. At 68,000 miles, the transmission started shuddering during acceleration. There was no warning light, I just noticed that something was wrong. This behavior is extremely concerning, as it creates a risk of sudden loss of power while driving and could result in an accident. Ford is aware of these issues but has not issued a recall. I paid to have the torque converter replaced; however, the same transmission problem has returned. Ford has declined to provide further assistance. Additionally, the check engine light is now illuminated, which Ford attributes to a software issue. Despite multiple repair attempts and clear safety concerns, these problems remain unresolved. I respectfully request that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration review this matter, as the defects appear to be systemic and pose a potential risk to drivers. Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.

The contact owns a 2019 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while driving at 70 MPH, the "Engine Coolant Overheating" warning message appeared on the instrument panel. Due to the failure, the contact had the vehicle towed back to the home. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and the contact was informed that there was a recall on the vehicle for the failure(recall unknown); however, the contact's vehicle was not included in the recall. The contact was then referred to the NHTSA Hotline to file a complaint. Upon investigation, the contact discovered that the failure was caused by the engine consuming coolant at a rapid pace. The vehicle had yet to be repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 57,000.

Ford Edge has a major issue with their drive system pertaining primary to the power train/Transmissions/torque converter. Looking at the complaints on google, you will see that Ford is reluctant to address these issues even when they should be covered under warranty or extended warranty. The issue becomes a safety problem when trying to make a left-hand turn in front of oncoming traffic The vehicle may or may not accelerate in a normal matter resulting in a near miss situation. The vehicle has a tendency to stall/shutter due to issues between the torque converter and the transmission. The problem is known to Ford and their dealerships, but they are refusing to take the corrective action required to address the problem. This should be a mandatory recall. We have had my wife's 2019 Ford Edge at the dealership 6 time for numerous attempts to resolve this issue. It will be going back again this week for trip number 7. In the meantime, I am forced to purchase her another vehicle so that she has something safe to drive. I have been a loyal Ford customer for the past several years. The last 3 vehicles I purchase included an F150, Fusion and this edge. Ford needs to step up and correct this issue before someone is in a tragic accident.

trans was shuddereing at 112000 miles replaced trans for 8000 dollars at dealership ..new trans has 80000 miles on it and now shuttering when accelerating ..trans needs replaced again..

The contact owns a 2019 Ford Edge. The contact stated while driving 30-40 MPH and depressing the accelerator pedal, the vehicle jerked and lurched forward. There was no warning light illuminated. The contact stated that the failure had been recurring while driving. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed that the transmission had failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline for assistance. The failure mileage was unknown.

My 2019 Ford Edge SEL has 37,000 miles and I keep it maintained regularly. We were 2 miles from our house when a loud blaring signal popped on my dashboard that my coolant was very low and at that point the car started "sputtering". We inched it home and sure enough, the coolant was empty. We've had no leaking on the driveway at any time. We filled the coolant reservoir and the message did not go away. We had it towed to our mechanic the next day and he said the engine needed to be replaced!!!! What? NO WARNING!! Now 2 days prior (which was a Friday), my check engine light came on and I could see a white smoke coming from the exhaust pipe and the car hesitated. After a few minutes, that went away. Drove it to work and back - 4 miles each way. The next day it happened again and again it stopped after a few minutes. I drove it maybe 10 miles after that running errands and then parked it for the day. The following day is when it "died". I received no other message or warning until it was too late. We were told by our mechanic that Ford has had numerous complaints on this engine. It is a Turbo on a 4 cylinder. The Turbo part will eventually overwork the 4 cylinder. Of course it is out of warranty. Now I am spending over $6,000 to replace this engine. Why in the world would Ford even install an engine like this in their vehicles? And why are they not recalling them?????? My husband has always had Ford Trucks and Mustangs - We have always been Ford People. I will never buy another Ford - SO DISAPPOINTED!!!!!

Vehicle seemed to be idling strange. Also seemed jerky while waiting at the stop light. Attempted to accelerate and it was lagging. Once I started driving it seemed better until the "Engine Coolant Over Temperature" alert displayed. The vehicle then started disbursing a white smoke. After pulling over the light went off, however the vehicle continued to jerk forward and was idling strange. Continued to have a lagging effect when attempting to accelerate. The vehicle continued to emit a white smoke. The vehicle was brought to a mechanic who indicated the head gasket and/or engine needed replacement. Had been told be the mechanic they have had several over issues exactly like this one. They also indicated there was a recall and/or possible lawsuit. My VIN came up with no recall which makes no sense considering I am having the same issue that's been reported under the recall.

This is an update to Complaint Number 11619818 filed on 10/15/2024. The engine surging problem referenced in the original report has been resolved per Technical Service Bulletin 21-2389, found on your website and forwarded to a local Ford dealership service department. Thank you for making available to the public these important technical documents! Best Regards, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

My **2019 Ford Edge** experienced a **transmission / powertrain failure at under 60,000 miles**. Before the failure, the vehicle began **shuddering during acceleration, slipping between gears, shifting harshly, and bucking / jerking at low speeds**, especially in stop-and-go traffic and when accelerating from a stop. The transmission would often **hesitate before engaging a gear and then suddenly lurch forward**, creating a serious safety risk. This unpredictable behavior put me and others at risk when entering intersections, making turns, merging into traffic, and driving in parking lots or residential areas, where sudden bucking or delayed engagement could cause a collision or loss of control. The issue was **reproduced and confirmed by the dealer**, which determined the transmission needed to be **rebuilt under warranty despite the vehicle having fewer than 60,000 miles**. The vehicle was inspected by the servicing dealer, and repair records are available. However, **despite the warranty rebuild, the same problems continue to persist**, including shuddering, slipping gears, and bucking at low speed. This indicates the underlying defect was not properly corrected and raises concern that the transmission will fail again. There were clear symptoms prior to the repair, including rough shifting, hesitation, slipping, and shuddering, and those same symptoms have returned after the rebuild. I am submitting this complaint because a transmission requiring major repair at such low mileage, combined with continued safety-related drivability issues after warranty service, presents an ongoing safety concern.

Cooling intrusion to motor, engine replaced

The contact owns a 2019 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle downshifted with the transmission speed sensor warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the transmission failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where the same diagnostic was provided the transmission failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 114,000.

Engine: Severe surging at low power settings, especially during engine warm-up. This surging is not related to air conditioner compressor cycling on/off, or turbo lag. Body: Rear hatch "kick to open" feature often activates suddenly without warning and without a deliberate kick motion by operator. This feature cannot be disabled; only the actuator can be disabled using instrument panel menus. This creates a condition where any inadvertent "open" command using any device will unlatch, but not open, the hatch. This can lead to loss of internal security and/or driving with an unlatched hatch. Thank You

The contact owns a 2019 Ford Edge. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the check engine warning light illuminated. The contact drove the vehicle to the shoulder of the road. The contact raised the hood and performed an inspection. The contact noticed that the coolant reservoir was empty, and the coolant had leaked into the exhaust. In addition, the contact stated that the coolant was burning off the exhaust. The vehicle was towed to the dealer where it was diagnosed with a failed EGR cooler, spark plugs, and an oil change. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure but did not assist. The contact was advised to contact the NHTSA Hotline and report the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 67,035.

The vehicle was towed to the dealer where it was diagnosed that EGR valve had failed, causing engine failure. The contact was informed that the engine needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and referred the contact to the NHSTA Hotline for assistance. The approximate failure mileage was 43,335.

2019 Ford Edge has the same 2.0 liter eco boost 240PS that’s currently involved in the class action lawsuit. The problem is that the coolant sleeve is too close to the toy he cylinder and failed causing coolant to enter the engine. I was traveling on the interstate and with no warning the hot engine light came on and engine shut down. The dealer confirmed that the mother need to be replaced with the updated long block that is being put in the 2015 - 2018 Ford Edge and the 2017 - 2019 Fusion/MKZ/Escape and MKC vehicles. The vehicle only has 75000 miles on it and has never towed or been used hard. We had the vehicle for less that 15,000 miles and now have a completely useless vehicle. Ford refuses to admit any fault even with the engine codes being the exact same. The 2019 for edge need to be looked into and included with the class action lawsuit for safety and consumer satisfaction.

In November 2024 Customer Complaint: Engine/transmission is sputtering on acceleration between 20–40 MPH. Code Pulled: Misfire code on Cylinder 4. Action Taken: Swapped ignition coil from Cylinder 4 to 3. Removed spark plug and noted wear/carbon tracing. Replaced all 4 spark plugs with Motor craft SP-594 (ASP594). No misfire present after repair. Same misfiring issue returns May 2025.

The contact owns a 2019 Ford Edge. The contact stated while driving approximately 35 MPH, the temperature gauge moved to the "RED zone" and the vehicle nearly stalled while slowing for a traffic light. The contact stated that the failure recurred, and the vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic. The vehicle was diagnosed, and the mechanic determined that there was coolant intrusion into the engine block. The contact was informed that the engine needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact researched online and related the failure to TSB Number: 19-2346 Coolant in Cylinders (Engine and Engine Cooling). The manufacturer was informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 35,000.

The EGR Cooler (K2GZ-9F464-A) on my 2019 Ford Edge Titanum EcoBoost 2L cracked acutely while driving my children to school. No warning lights came on at any point. Once the car was in park, I noticed large amounts of smoke pouring out of the exhaust pipes. I had my children in the car strapped into car seats. Should the car have caught fire my children's lives would have been in jeopardy. Our lives would have also been at risk for injury should my car have completely failed while driving. This part failure has been confirmed by a repair shop. July 09, 2020, there was a TSB by Ford issued for: 2.0L EcoBoost - Illuminated MIL With Various DTCs And/Or Low Coolant Level, White Smoke from Tailpipe And/Or External Coolant Leak. However, this known failure with TSB information was not dispelled to me (the public) through Ford Pass App or by Ford Corporate or the Ford Dealer, where I purchased the car in 2020. A simple PCM software update would have prevented this issue for occurring. There were no warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure. The issue occurred on 10/02/2024.

Vehicle has bad shifting and LURCHES AT STOPS Transmission. Torque converter, oil cooler all need replaced Problem has been confirmed by both a independent service center and dealership Inspected by dealership Took for inspection because of issue. Ford has informed me there is not a recall on this vehicle and warranty expired in Mar 24, Vehicle has 43, 715 miles and I am being told I have to foot the $7,876.36 repair bill. There is a Ford Technical Service Bulletin - 21-2081 but they say this does not apply to this vehicle.

The contact owns a 2019 Ford Edge. The contact stated that after shifting the gear selector to reverse, the vehicle abruptly lurched backwards. Later, while driving at highway speeds, the vehicle lurched forward while changing gear and while decelerating. Additionally, while depressing the brake pedal to stop, the vehicle lurched forward. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer who discovered metal shavings in the transmission fluid and transmission planetary gears were damaged. The contact was informed that the transmission needed to be replaced. The transmission was replaced, and the vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 113,000.

The contact owns a 2019 Ford Edge. The contact stated while the vehicle was parked, the check engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed that there was coolant intrusion into the engine and the engine needed to be replaced. The contact researched and was made aware of NHTSA Campaign Number: 17V209000 (Engine and Engine Cooling); however, the VIN was not included in the recall. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 53,000.

Vehicle began shuddering and losing power while driving. Issues are related to automatic transmission gear shifts. Gears seem to be slipping or not shifting correctly. Tachometer is revving without acceleration at times. Check engine and ford app errors indicate powertrain issue. When slowing down, car randomly acted as if the brake had been pushed hard. If I had not been on a road without other vehicles, a crash would have been likely. Car has been taken to local dealer, who had not yet diagnosed, but has already indicated this is a common issue with 2019 edges and will likely be an expensive fix.

I literally financed a 2019 Ford Edge with 88k miles on [XXX] from SUTTON FORD in Matteson IL. I didn’t even have the car 5 hours and the transmission started having serious shifting issues and almost caused me to get in a crack with my son in the car. Took it back to SUTTON FORD and they are telling me the transmission is bad and needs to be replaced. I think this is a problem considering how long I’ve had them vehicle and it is a safety concern that needs to be addressed.

The transmission when slowing down when it down shifts it Jumps so hard fells like engine is going to jump out of hood after this happens it like it is stuck in a higher gear so trans slips then hits real hard have to stop super early to avoid car from rear ending car in front of you

Not only 2017 ford edge have bad torque converter but the 2019 also has same issues

The contact owns a 2019 Ford Edge. The contact stated while driving approximately 40 MPH, the vehicle shuddered. No warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the transmission needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 81,000.

The vehicle is a 2019 Ford Edge AWD. At 39,500 miles white smoke comes out of tailpipe, engine coolant quickly disappears, engine runs rough and check engine comes on. At this point the vehicle is undrivable and won’t respond to gas pedal inputs. Appears to be a known engine issue; however, dealer says it’s an exhaust gas recirculation pump and parts needing replacement, with approximate cost of $2000. This is a premature failure of an engine and may cause a safety concern if driving at highway speeds. Vehicle is out of 5 year warranty with 4/2019 build date.

Purge flow valve had replaced by Ford Service on 10/5/24. Car wouldn’t start after getting gas. Check engine light came on. Code was Po496. Currently, upon acceleration @15-20 mph car starts jerking, buck, slipping, very hard to go hill. Took to Ford Service for diagnostic on 10/15/24. Told torque converter shuddering on PIDS. Recommend replacing torque converter @ a cost of $5200. Per, reviewing many complaints on this same model & yr many haven’t had success with just replacing torque converter. It doesn’t fix issue. Transmission had to be replaced. Ford does have a TSB 21-2389 that supersedes TSB 21-2081 out. It states cars with 8F35 transmission may have this issue due to the software in the power train control module. Instructing, to reprogram the PCM & the transmission solenoid strategy. After reviewing all complaints on this issue, this solution does not correct problem. I was also told by Ford service; this wouldn’t fix the issue. From what I’ve read the way this transmission is engineered will likely cause it to always do this. Because Ford Frankensteined the 6F35 (previous models) by inserting 2 gears in between existing ones, the transition from 1-2-3 will never be as fluid as 3-4, 4-5, and so on. Basically what is 1-3 on mine (8F35) is 1-2 on a 6F35. This quite frankly is a terrible transmission & only a matter of time before transmission goes completely out & someone gets killed. This year & model has numerous issues not listed here. Seems like as soon as warranty expires problems start popping up. Some issues pop up before warranty expires. This is getting dangerous & very expensive!

My vehicle had to have the EGR cooler replaced for the second time. The first time was when the vehicle was at almost 37,000 miles, the second time was at 129,575 miles. Just like during the previous occurrences, the check engine light came on and the message in my Fordpass app advised that there was a problem with the engine cooling system and I needed to proceed to my dealership. In this instance, I had it towed to the dealership rather than driving it. This is the same system that currently has a TSB issued for it.

The contact owns a 2019 Ford Edge. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the accelerator pedal was depressed, however the vehicle failed to accelerate as intended. No warning lights were illuminated. In addition, the vehicle jerked abnormally and was driving sluggishly. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed with transmission failure. The contact was informed that the transmission needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The contact stated that the transmission had been replaced two times with low mileage. The first transmission was replaced at 26,000 miles. The contact was provided a financial discount for the repair. The second transmission was replaced at 26,500 miles. The contact stated that the repair was covered under warranty. The contact was concerned that, because of the persistent failure, the third transmission would fail with low mileage. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and a case was filed. The failure mileage was approximately 26,000.

The contact owns a 2019 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the transmission was slipping, and the vehicle struggled to remain in the intended gear. Additionally, while driving at highway speeds, there was an abnormal knocking sound coming from the vehicle. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and was diagnosed with transmission failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact stated that the failure persisted. The vehicle was taken to a certified mechanic who confirmed the transmission failure diagnoses. The transmission was replaced. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and opened a case. The manufacturer referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline to report the failure. The failure mileage was 104,000.

MY TRANSMISSION HAS GONE OUT 2 TIMES. ONCE IN THE MIDDLE OF A INTERSECTION. ALMOST GOT REARENDED. IT HAS BEEN AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR 4 MONTH, AND THEY CANNOT GET IT RIGHT. NO WARNING LAMPS OR MESSAGES. JUST HESITATES, AD NO POWER, THEN THE TRANSMISSON BLOWS UP, AND YOU CANNOT MOETHE VEHICLE . I HAVE SEVERAL REPAIR ORDERS

I purchased a 2019 Ford Edge in 2021. About a year ago my service engine light came on. I took it to my dealer and was told there was a torque converter issue, but it would not leave me on the side of the road. I have tolerated this stuttering issues more than a year now every time I drive this vehicle. The maintenance on this car has been well maintained. I took my car in for routine maintenance this week and asked about the torque converter issue and was told it would be $6,000 to replace/repair and there could be more issues related to the same that could come up later. It is time for new tires and brakes but doing all of this is more than the value of the car. It appears the torque converter issue is a known problem with the Ford Edge as well as other makers. However, no maker wants to make this a recall issue. How can something that is known and impacting multiple buyers not a recall issue? Because it won't leave me on the side of the road, does that mean it isn't a safety issue? If I have $8000 to repair my car I would just go buy something else. It is also my understanding there is a class action lawsuit regarding this issue. The issue has not caused an accident yet, but the vehicle does not perform as expected and I don't know when the "stutter" will turn to a "stop" and put my family and me in harms way.

The vehicle is only five years old with only approx. 47,000 miles on it and we had to have the transmission replaced in September 2024. It's primarily used for driving locally but every year we use it to take a vacation but normally don't put more than 400-500 miles on it during the trip. The Ford dealership we had the transmission replaced at stated it was a factory defect yet we never received any notice about any kind of recall and the dealership we bought it from never mentioned anything about it. Having to have the transmission replaced with so few miles seems pretty odd.
