I HAVE A 2017 FORD EDGE AND I BOUGHT IT FROM A DEALER IN JACKSONVILLE, FL. I'VE HAD THE CAR FOR 5 MONTHS, AT THE 3RD MONTH THE CAR STARTED TO SHAKE, ENGINE LIKE CAME ON. GAME ME THE MISS FIRE ON CYLINDERS #2 AND #4, TOOK IT TO THE FORD DEALER IN SANFORD, FL. BEFORE THAT, I CHANGED THE SPARK PLUGS AND COIL PACKS AFTER A DIAGNOSTIC WAS FOUND TO HAVE "COOLANT INTRUSION ON CYLINDER #2, AND WAS TOLD THAT FORD WOULD NOT COVER THE REPAIR ON THE ENGINE, BUT THAT THE ENTIRE ENGINE HAD TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE FORD HAD CHANGED THE DESIGN ON THE ENGINE AND GASKETS. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL, NOT A TSB, AS I HAVE FOUND MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS AND THEY ALL HAVE CONTACTED FORD WITH THE SAME RESULTS, SO FORD IS WELL AWARE OF THIS ISSUE. THE DEALER TOLD ME TO TRADE IN THE CAR ASAP. I NEED HELP. THANK YOU
SWOLLEN LUG NUTS - On 26 September 2022, my right rear tire picked up a nail causing a flat tire. After removing the spare, lug wrench and jack, I found the Ford factory lug wrench would not fit on the lug nuts. I required road side assistance for which I was billed $95 for the call (subsequently reimbursed by my insurance company). When the road side assistance serviceman arrived, he said it was a common Ford problem. He had larger sockets and easily installed the spare. I purchased replacement 20 lug nuts for $42.39. Reimbursement would be appropriate. Fortunately, the event occurred mid day in temperate weather in a small town where I could easily pull out of traffic. If it would have occurred during the dark during inclement weather, the outcome may have been disastrous. A recall for replacement of these lug nuts is appropriate.
This issue is related to TSB22-2229. This is a known issues where the engine coolant is leaking into cylinder 2 which when occurs leads to replacing the engine. This issue has lead to an extension of the warranty on other Ford models, but not the Edge.
Own a 2017 Ford Edge 2.0L Ecoboost engine with 68,000 miles. Check engine light came on so took it to a local mechanic who replaced the spark plugs, coils, evap sensors, and cam shaft position sensor. The code was stating a misfire in the #2 cylinder. Less than a week later the light came back on and got an engine overheating warning. Added coolant and then had to add more coolant a few days later with no evidence of a coolant leak. When starting the vehicle or accelerate from a stop would notice a liquid swooshing sound. Also when starting the vehicle it would tremble and run ruff for a minute or two. There would be a lot of white smoke coming from the exhaust pipe with a bad oder that would eventually dissipate after diving a few miles. Finally drove the car to work and when I went to leave afterwards the vehicle would not start. Would crank but would never turn over. Had the car towed to a Ford dealer that diagnosed coolant leaking into the number 2 cylinder. They told me the only fix was to replace the engine. They gave me Fords number and told me to call and complain since I only had 68,000 miles on it. They gave me a copy of Fords response which states, “As a subsequent with no recent new vehicle or paid repair history, the customer generates a 0% share recommendation, meaning they do not meet the CLV requirements for the FLP assistance. Ford Motor Company is unable provide financial assistance in this case”. Called Ford and was told that there was nothing they could do since I was 8,000 miles over warranty and refused to offer any discounts or assistance. Asked to speak to the warranty department that made the decision not to cover and was informed there was no extension for that department so I can not speak to anyone that made the decision not to cover any of the costs. Was quoted from the dealer the cost for the repairs will be $7,710.81 plus taxes. This is a major safety issue as the defect can cause the engine to overheat and start on fire.
The contact owns a 2017 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while reversing into a parking space, the vehicle suddenly stalled. There was an abnormal cracking sound coming from underneath the vehicle. There were no warning lights illuminated. The vehicle had been towed to the dealer who diagnosed that the transmission had failed. The contact stated that vehicle failure was related to a Customer Satisfaction Program NHTSA ID Number: 10144200 (Power Train) and NHTSA Campaign Number: 22V413000 (Power Train) however, the VIN was not included. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and then referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline. The approximate failure mileage was 71,600.
My car loses power when I press the gas. For example, I can come to a stop, wait until it’s safe to turn in front of another car, then try to take off — but the vehicle suddenly loses all power. It won’t accelerate, and I have to keep pressing the gas and hope it goes. Sometimes I have to pull over, put it in park, turn the car off, and restart it before it will drive again. This also happens on the freeway. When this issue happens, the car also shifts very hard afterward, causing it to jump forward. This makes the vehicle extremely unsafe — especially when I am trying to turn in front of cars moving at high speed and my car suddenly loses all power. I have taken the vehicle in five times for the same issue, but the Ford dealership has not been able to repair it. I have also called Ford’s corporate office, but they said they cannot help. I opened a case with the BBB as well, and they advised me to open a case with you. At this point, I am at a complete loss with this issue. I travel with my two kids in the car, and I am honestly afraid to drive it — but I have no other vehicle.

On 08/17/22 I took my car into Bill Collins because there was a loss of coolant, and my SUV was acting up. It was jerking randomly. At the time the SUV was noted to have 63,860 miles. Dealership fixed recalls on vehicle and did a pressure test and said there was a water pump leak. Replaced water pump and gasket. Check engine light remained on and when asked dealership about it they said in order to get the check engine light off it would have to go to another part of the dealership, and we would be charged another $99 diagnostic fee. On 11/21/22 SUV was taken back to Bill Collins because it was still doing the same thing. This time you could also hear water moving/draining from behind the dash and the check engine light was still on. Dealership fixed another recall showing on vehicle and said that the water pump had air pocket. Sent home but sputtering engine was not fixed. 12/08/22 contacted dealership again to let them know that nothing they have done over the past several months has worked and SUV is still acting up. Was told they would have a higher up mechanic look at vehicle to see what the issue was. Dealership contacted us two days later stating that vehicle needs a new motor. Current mileage 67,883. Dealership stated they verified coolant intrusion into cylinder and that it is necessary to replace the long block. Exact verbiage from dealership employee. (Coolant intrusion into cylinder #2. Verified defective engine block. Coolant leaking internally.) My SUV has been in and out of Bill Collins Ford for the past 4 months and no one could figure out the problem. Yet, when we spoke to Bill Collins about the new motor, we were told at that time that this is a known issue. Yet, no one mentioned it for 4 months and I've been driving my vehicle in this condition? I work for Ford and have supported Ford for the past 7 years. I am wanting to understand how Ford is going to make this right.
While driving the vehicle on a major roadway in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, my vehicle suddenly stopped! It would not move forward or backwards. This was a definite safety issue and fortunately, the only cars around me were in the left and right lanes. I was in the middle lane and fortunately there was not a car directly behind me, or it would have run right into me. My vehicle went from travelling at 60 miles per hour to a complete standstill. My car is currently in Monroeville Ford right now for the same problem. This is after having the transmission replaced twice and having the engine replaced. The thing that is alarming is that was a safety issue and I, along with others could have been killed. It was only by the grace of God that other vehicles weren't behind me when my vehicle suddenly stopped.
At 84,000 miles, the vehicle displayed the Service Engine Soon light, as well as white smoke from both exhausts. The mechanic diagnosed a misfire in two cylinders. All four spark plugs were replaced. The engine light and error code for cylinder 2 persisted. The ignition coil and fuel injector for cylinder 2 were replaced. The owner researched online, found the NHTSA complaints about this engine issue and the associated technical service bulletins, and brought the vehicle to the dealership. It was determined that this was a mechanical failure not uncommon with the 2.0L Ecoboost in this vehicle, and a replacement of the longblock was required. Despite awareness and acknowledgement of the malfunctions in the Ecoboost, Ford declined any discounts or assistance to the owner for replacement of this defunct product, costing the owner $7,252.10 in parts, labor, and tax to replace the longblock.

I bought this vehicle from Family Ford in Enfield CT and they did not provide me with a car fax when I asked 3 times for it. I wanted to see if I could trade it in at a Volkswagen dealership and they gave the car fax, and it was in an accident. A very serious one where they hit the driver's side left rear. The car had to be towed with severe damage. To this day they still have not given the car fax 9/25/2022 to me.

Morning of 7/30/22 "check engine" light came on. Drove vehicle home (38 miles), brought into dealership 8/4/22. They informed me after running diagnostics that I needed a new engine at 67,223 miles. I brought vehicle back on 8/29/22 to have the engine replaced (it had been on backorder). Finally completed on 9/9/22 at the cost of $6,838.78.
Engine would rattle on startup. Check engine code came on dash. It revealed cylinder 2 misfire. Local mechanic replaced coil pack on 2 and all spark plugs on 5-30-22. Problem persisted and took it to Ford dealership on 7-29-22. Tech indicated gasket was warped on engine head and coolant was leaking into cylinder 2 which he showed me from a photograph from scoping cylinder 2. He informed my coolant was low. He quoted me a new engine as he stated that was the only solution by Ford. He added coolant to the fill line. He indicated it would only get worse over time and overheat. Coolant system was pressure tested and would not hold. I am concerned for my safety driving it as the coolant needs checked regularly or it may overheat which could pose a fire hazard.
I started experiencing a rough idle and engine misfire. The check engine codes indicated cylinder 3 misfire. Was advised several times to replace spark plugs and coils but after no success had further diagnostics that showed crack in cylinder 3 allowing coolant to leak into the engine. Required new engine at 96k miles.

ITS BEEN 2 years!”!”! I’ll be seeking legal advice….I’m in fear of driving my car…. My neighbor who has the same model car had BOTH Brake Hoses break while she was driving. She literally had no brakes while in traffic. Can you help me??
The engine in our 2017 Ford Edge leaks coolant into the cylinders, causing misfire and posing a fire hazard. We took our vehicle into the shop due to a check engine light and low coolant warning that came on randomly and were informed we needed a new engine. The check engine light never blinked to alert us of the misfiring cylinder. The mechanic noted that cylinder 1 was "full of coolant." The service advisor cited a technical service bulletin 22-2224 that detailed the defect of the engine on several models of vehicles across several years. There is no recall on the defect. The service advisor stated that Ford has been aware of the issue for years and redesigned the engine as a result. We were never notified about the potential issue.
Noticed the coolant was leaking and was not able to find visually. Took the vehicle to Ford Dealership on 7/19/22 and they said we need to replace the whole engine as Coolant is leaking into the Engine. This was a manufacture defect. There is already a recall for the same issue on the 1.5 engines, this is a 2.0 engine. The engine light had come on and stated the engine needed coolant. I was getting an oil change and they topped it off. The next day, the coolant was gone. I continued to refill and it kept disappearing, thus the reason for taking the vehicle to Ford. This was over a span of 4 days prior 7/15/2022. We asked for financial assistance to replace the engine and Ford refused. They said to pay the $7000 and if a recall was announced, we would get a refund. We don't have $7000 just sitting around, I am still paying on the vehicle with only 80,000 miles on it. We call on 7/29/2022 and they (ford) tells us to bring the vehicle back to the dealership on Monday and they will discuss help fixing the engine. We do this Monday 8/1/2022 and the supervisor we waited 2 hours on hold for, laughed throughout the conversation and even used the phrase "I know what its like to be poor" - completely unprofessional. Ford should back their product and fix any issues on engine because of faulty production.
Check engine light came on repeatedly, and final determination was the head gasket was leaking coolant into cylinders. Result, engine need to be replaced. Vehicle is a 2017 Ford Edge, 54M miles, but less than one month out of 5 year drivetrain warranty. Research shows that Ford has been aware of the problem for at least 3 years (NHTSA ID 10162071 and Ford TSB 19-2208 and TSB 19-2346). A head gasket should last for 200M miles. I found a website where at least 60 other owners are experiencing this problem, and for the most part, Ford is hiding behind the "expired warranty" excuse. Correction for this problem approaches $9000. My car now sits at a Ford dealer awaiting a replacement engine. The dealer is unable to give me any idea as to when I will get my car back. Ford has really dropped the ball on this, and I hope you can step in and get their attention.
Drove for two weeks, check engine light comes on. Dealership says coolant is leaking on engine & it needs replaced. Vehicle is not safe to drive until engine is replaced. Owned the car 5 months now & only got to drive it two weeks.
MY ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON -7/10/2022. TOOK IT TO FIRESTONE BECAUSE IT WAS THE WEEKEND AND THEY SAID THEY COULD FIX THE PROBLEM SO I COULD HAVE CAR BACK FOR THE MONDAY MORNING. I DROVE IT TO WORK FOR EXACLTY A WEEK AND THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME BACK ON-7/17/2022. TOOK IT BACK TO FIRESTONE AND HE PUT IT BACK ON THE DIAGNOSTIC AND FOUND THE SAME PROBLEM. HE LOOKED IT UP ON FORD.COM AND FOUND OUT THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE ENGINE LONG BLOCK AND PRINTED IT OUT THE REPORT FOR ME. I HAVE AN APPOINMENT FOR AUGUST 2 TO HAVE THEM LOOK AT IT BECAUSE THAT WAS THE ONLY DAY CAN GET ME IN.
I am reporting a repeated transmission failure involving my 2017 Ford Edge (VIN: [XXX] ). The vehicle has had multiple transmission replacements performed by an authorized Ford dealership (Barbara Dyson Ford). Each replacement has been faulty, and the most recent transmission is now failing again. The vehicle currently has worsening transmission issues, making it unreliable and unsafe to drive. The problem continues despite repeated repairs, indicating a pattern failure rather than a one-time defect. I rely on this vehicle to transport my child to ongoing medical and specialist appointments. Due to the repeated transmission failures, the vehicle cannot be depended on for essential transportation. I have contacted Ford Consumer Affairs but have received no resolution or follow-up. I am reporting this issue due to safety concerns and repeated unsuccessful repair attempts.
