Most Recent Complaints

#11719472 | ENGINE | | N/A miles
My vehicle was recalled by the manufacturer for possibly defective intake valves. The manufacturer did a destructive test on the valves, This test consisted of running the car at 4500 rpm (approximately 120 mph) for a period of approximately 50 minutes. Since this test my car has undergone 3 transmission repairs. Any of these conditions could have resulted in being stranded on the road or possibly losing control of the vehicle, The test only makes the assumption that if the valves did not fail during the test they will continue to provide adequate and safe service. This is not necessarily true. The valves may fail on the highway causing loss of control, I believe that my vehicle was damaged by this test. My vehicle has a little over 30, 000 miles and had no damage before this test. The manufacturer should make this good on the intake valves by replacing them on the 90,000+ vehicles subject to this recall.
#11717469 | POWER TRAIN | | N/A miles

The contact owns a 2021 Ford Edge. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V315000 (Back Over Prevention). The contact had taken the vehicle to a local dealer, who was unable to complete the recall repair because the dealer was waiting on an Override Code from the manufacturer. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was informed of the issue but was unable to help. The contact had not experienced a failure.
#11715212 | BACK OVER PREVENTION | | 29,821 miles
The contact owns a 2021 Ford Edge. The contact had received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V315000 (Back Over Prevention); however, the local dealer and the manufacturer were contacted, and informed the contact that the VIN was not associated with the recall. The contact explained that a recall letter was removed from the manufacturer and was informed that the VIN was not associated with the recall. The contact stated that the rear-view camera experienced failure for approximately one year. The failure mileage was 29,821.
#11712152 | POWER TRAIN | | N/A miles
Ive been having problems with my 21 ford edge. I looked online to see what it could be. I came across a bulletin about reprogramming the pcm. My car was spudderinglosing power and I notice jerking and I was going through gas like crazy. So we called the Ford dealership make an appointment to have them reprogram the pcm. That did not work though. They suspect it to me the torque converter. I see that there are a lot of other ford owners that are having the same problems as I am. And from what I understand ford knew about this and still haven't done anything about it. I rely on this vehicle to get me back and forth to work 60 miles 4 days a wk. My children are in the car with me relying on me to get them places. Its not fair we have to pay for their mistakes. We want what's right and that is them to pay for their mistakes. Please
