My vehicle only has 77K miles on it and is already needing an entirely new engine due to coolant intrusion into the cylinder. We discovered this after replacing all the spark plugs in the vehicle and the check engine light not disengaging. You should not have to replace an entire engine with only 77K miles. This is a known issue with FORD referencing two bulletin's - the first bulletin #19-2346 and now with bulletin #22-2133. They are refusing to cover the repairs 100% and expecting the consumer to pay 40% of the cost of their known issue of a $10K repair ticket. It also clearly states in the recent bulletin that the MIL may or may not engage with this issue. If we had know that this was an issue with this vehicle inside the 5 year/60K mile powertrain warraty which would have covered the repairs 100% we would have...

I've bought a 2018 Ford Edge SEL July of 2021 at Zech Ford (Kansas), it had just a little over 50k miles, within the first month of ownership, engine light comes on (code P0301), I took to the dealership and they replaced the oxygen sensor, everything seemed fine since. This last May, the flex plate cracked, I took to Greenway Ford dealership (Florida) and paid $3,085.36 for the repair, within just an hour of having the car back, engine light comes on (P0301), I immediately took the car back, they kept the car for the weekend, replaced the stream O2 sensor and charged me $105.24, they only charged me for the part, they waived the labor fee since I just had a $3k repair. Now, 2 months later, engine light comes on again for the same code P0301, but this time I can hear liquid running through the dashboard and...

HAD OIL CHANGED AT DEALERSHIP IN DEC 2020AND ADVISED OF LOW COOLANT. TECH CHECKED NO LEAKS FOUND. MARCH 2021 CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON CODE P0301, MISFIRE IN CYL 1. HAD NEW SPARK PLUGS PUT IN. DROVE 500 MILES, CODE CAME BACK. SWAPPED COIL PACK FROM CYL 1 AND 2, DROVE ANOTHER 450 MILES CODE CAME BACK. HAD INJECTORS CHECKED, ALL OK. CAR STARTED HAVING A SLOW SLUGGISH START TO IT.

MY 2018 EDGE WITH ECOBOOST HAS LESS THAN 62K MILES. NOTICED A RATTLING NOISE WHEN I WAS IDLED OR NOT ACCELERATING. NOISE GOT LOUDER AND WORSE, SEEMED TO HAVE ISSUES CHANGING GEARS, BEGAN SOUNDING LIKE A DIESEL WHEN I WAS IDLE. TOOK IT IN FOR DIAGNOSTICS TODAY AND NOTICED THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON TODAY. RESULTS CAME BACK WITH RANDOM MISFIRE CODE. TURNS OUT THERE IS A CRACK IN THE FLYWHEEL...WHICH FROM WHAT I CAN TELL BY RESEARCH IS DUE TO MANUFACTURER ISSUES WITH THE TORQUE CONVERTER. WHY IS THERE NO RECALL FOR THIS? IT IS DANGEROUS AND THE CAR IS NOT OLD OR WORN OUT ENOUGH TO HAVE THESE KIND OF ISSUES. COST TO CORRECT IS ASTRONOMICAL. PLEASE HELP RAISE AWARENESS AND GET THE HELP CONSUMERS DESERVE.
THERE IS AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE - STARTED AT 24000+/- AND DRAINED BATTERIES - AFTER REPLACING 4 BATTERIES - CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON - DEALER DID PRESSURE CHECK AND ENGINE HAD TO BE REPLACED! AFTER REPLACEMENT, BATTERY WAS AGAIN DEAD. THEY CANNOT FIND REASON FOR DRAINED BATTERY. THIS VEHICLE IS UNSAFE AND POTENTIALLY A FIRE HAZARD. I CANNOT GET RELIEF FROM FORD MOTOR - REFUSED TO BUY BACK. VEHICLE WAS PARKED EVERY TIME BATTERY WAS DRAINED.
VEHICLE POWERTRAIN EQUIPMENT FAILURE AT 34K MILES CONSISTENT WITH NHTSA CAMPAIGN # 18V390000 AND FORD RECALL 17S16. NO ACCIDENTS OR INJURY RESULTING FROM THE FAILURE. REQUIRED REPLACEMENT OF ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION COMPONENTS INCLUDING THE TORQUE CONVERTER. REPAIRS TOOK ALMOST SIX WEEKS TO COMPLETE DUE TO PARTS AVAILABILITY.
LOSS OF TRANSMISSION POWER, LIKE AS IF THE TRANSMISSION CANT DECIDE WHICH GEAR TO BE IN, THEN WHEN IT SELECTS THE GEAR IT SLAMS INTO GEAR SO HARD THAT IT FEELS LIKE YOU HAVE BEEN HIT FROM BEHIND BY A TRUCK. THIS HAS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC, WHEN DRIVING THRU A DIP IN THE ROAD,AND MOST DISTURBINGLY WHILE DRIVING UP A LONG STEEP HILL.
WHEN AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND TRY TO SPEED UP TO CHANGE LANES STEP ON GAS PEDAL AND NOTHING HAPPENS CAR JUST SLOWS DOWN TILL I LET OFF THE GAS PEDAL
THE FRONT AXLE, (KNOWN AS THE HALF SHAFT) BLEW OUT ALL THE GREASE IN THE RUBBER BOOT. THE INSIDE FRONT , DRIVER'S SIDE TIRE, SUSPENSION AND BRAKES WERE COVERED WITH GREASE. CAME FROM THE DEALERSHIP LIKE THIS, AUTO HAD 42 MILES AT TIME THIS WAS NOTICED.
