There are 5 owner-reported driver assist & adas complaints for the 2019 Ford Edgein NHTSA's database. These are unverified consumer reports and may not reflect confirmed defects.
The ADAS system has caused erratic and extremely unsafe behavior on multiple occasions. This behavior includes the car slamming on the brakes at high snd low speeds on clear sections of roadway in what appears to be attempts to avoid a shadow or imaginary object in the road. The car has also swerved to avoid a shadow on a tree lined street. Most recently this automatic emergency braking occurred at 70 mph on an interstate with following traffic behind the vehicle nearly causing a high speed rear end accident. On the same trip, the lane keeping assist guided the vehicle beyond the striping toward the road edge and has attempted to have the car change planes while traversing across a crossover for an intersecting road. Regaining control of the vehicle in all of these incidents has required aggressive actions on the part of the Driver to resist/mitigate the braking or steering decisions of the car. The car was purchased with 89k miles on it 5 months ago. The vehicle has not yet been taken to dealer to report or investigate this issue which has also occurred with our 2020 Ford Explorer.

Was driving on freeway, in the middle lane, and card just started slowing down for no reason, pressed gas and it still was slowing down. It felt like the brakes were being applied even though I was just pressing the gas. Finally it stopped and I turned the car off and then back on and the problem went away. I think it was the adaptive cruise control and not the collision avoidance because no warnings came u on the dash. Luckily the cars behind me were able to stop without rear ending me but they sure were angry with me.
