Transmission has catastrophic failure and exploded while driving. Many components missing chunk of metal and or just completely mangled after explosion from under car when had to me turned 35°-50° to go straight. Went to Google my issue and say the 2020, Ford edge had 3 recalls for transmission issues but for certain ones and mine want listed but had done a good amount of damage
Forward collision warning stopped working which in turn caused the cruise control to not work. Then the PSCM (power steering control module) just went out all at once. Was driving and it showed warning on the dash. I drove on and parked. When I went to start back, it started fine but couldn’t move steering wheel. I’m seeing this has been a problem with other owners and the same year model. Ford has done a recall on edge for years around 2020 but not that particular year. Gonna cost $2772.59 to fix at dealership. Always owned ford but very disappointed how this happened with very little warning at all. If it had locked up while I was driving it would have been a major accident.
Have had issues from day one. Lane centering hugs middle line, back up camera is black at times, when in drive screen is blank, all tools on steering have went out including turn signals, cruse control, collision avoidance flashes when no one is in front of me, brakes due to collision avoidance malfunction etc. in November 2021 car was in park ( know that for sure it was in park and not moving as fed ex came for delivery and walked around back of car to get package before accident) and rolled to front pinning me and breaking pelvis and back. During this incident the safety failed in park, anti collie on failed, 9 days in hospital and months of rehab. Again coming back from doctor lost steering controls. 7 weeks in shop and many calls to dealer and ford motor they replaced main wiring harness stating to me in...
I NOTICED A KNOCKING IN THE LEFT FRONT END. IT WAS DIFFICULT TO STEER, VERY LOUD RUMBLING NOISE LIKE GEARS CLASHING. LUCKILY I WAS ONLY GOING 25 MPH WHEN IT HAPPENED AND A MILE AWAY FROM HOME. WHEN I ALMOST STOPPED COULDN'T STEER AT ALL. PURCHASED OCTOBER 27, 2020, IT IS CURRENTLY JANUARY 13, 2021 AND HAS 601 MILES ON IT. IT HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP FOR 3 DAYS. FORD DEALERSHIP VERIFIED THAT IS WAS A FACTORY WELD FAILURE. THE PIECE THAT BROKE OFF MADE A NOTCH IN THE TIRE WHICH WILL BE SHOWN IN THE PHOTOS. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THE VEHICLE WITH A MAJOR WELD FAILURE HAPPENING AT ONLY 601 MILES AND NOW I WORRY ABOUT THE OTHER WELDS ON THE FRAME.
