I literally financed a 2019 Ford Edge with 88k miles on [XXX] from SUTTON FORD in Matteson IL. I didn-??t even have the car 5 hours and the transmission started having serious shifting issues and almost caused me to get in a crack with my son in the car. Took it back to SUTTON FORD and they are telling me the transmission is bad and needs to be replaced. I think this is a problem considering how long I-??ve had them vehicle and it is a safety concern that needs to be addressed.

The vehicle is a 2019 Ford Edge AWD. At 39,500 miles white smoke comes out of tailpipe, engine coolant quickly disappears, engine runs rough and check engine comes on. At this point the vehicle is undrivable and won-??t respond to gas pedal inputs. Appears to be a known engine issue; however, dealer says it-??s an exhaust gas recirculation pump and parts needing replacement, with approximate cost of $2000. This is a premature failure of an engine and may cause a safety concern if driving at highway speeds. Vehicle is out of 5 year warranty with 4/2019 build date.

The mechanic that inspected the car after it broke down said that the EcoBoost 2.0 has an issue that the engine cracks or something like that allowing coolant or whatnot to get into the spark plugs. I think I explained that. The car now needs an engine. With 83000 miles. I-??m sure this could cause a fire.

I had taken my vehicle to mitchell selig Ford dealership for a problem with coolant burning white smoke out of my exhaust pipes. They did a diagnostic check and they found the egr cooler leaking into the exhaust causing engine misfire and white smoke. When I discovered the smoke I was on the highway and my car had stalled twice in the middle of traffic that could've resulted in a horrible accident. Luckily no one hit me and I was able to restart my car. I had to refill my coolant multiple times to avoid my engine catching on fire.

My car Continuously jerks while driving. It's like stuttering, I am afraid it will not pick up speed one day while driving and making turns. This is a scary and safety issue as I do not want to be in a position of making a turn and getting hit. I know that I am not the only one complaining about this issue. Please look into all complaints and rectify this problem. Thank you. Sincerely [XXX]. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

At 45,494 miles, the vehicle exhibited rough idle at full stop. Further identified white smoke from the exhaust and a burning smell. No warning light displayed. Had the vehicle towed to a Ford dealership for diagnostics. Diagnostics didn't identify any error codes and there are still no warning lights. The diagnosis indicates coolant intrusion from a leaking head gasket into all cylinders. The recommended resolution is an engine replacement. This vehicle is only 8 months out of the 60 month 50,000 mile power train warranty.

relatively new car, 77,000 miles, out of warranty. temperature warning light came on. Taken to dealer. Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) Cooler was leaking coolant. no puddle or evidence of a leak was apparent in parking area. EGR was replaced three weeks ago. Check engine light came on. Dealer reset warning light. light returned during a vacation trip. upon return, white smoke was noticed from exhaust. Dealer diagnosed that evidence of coolant damage was present in two cylinders. Dealer recommended that Engine be replaced. Internet research revealed many discussions about EGR Coolers leaking engine coolant into the engine intake. It was also noted that other ford makes and models in the build date timeframe have had recalls concerning coolant leaking into the engine. No current recall on Ford Edges. Ford opened a case and is investigating further with the dealer service department.

I am having trouble with my car jerking when accelerating between 30 and 50 mph. I originally began to have trouble with my 2019 Ford Edge on 5/13/22. On this date, the car began to overheat and I ended up having to incur the expense of not only having the car towed; but also of retrieving the car as the closest Ford dealership at the time was 5 hours away from my home. In this instance, the car was repaired under warranty and a code of TSB 20-2234. Shortly after the repair, I noticed that my car's wifi was no longer working; and, when I inquired I was told that there would be a $400 diagnostic fee. Furthermore, after about 6 months I noticed that the car would begin to jerk when accelerating. There were no console warnings, just an irregularity when driving. I took it back to the dealership on 8-28-2023 for the acceleration issue. I was given a rental car while they reviewed the issue. The repair cost me $600. After about 6 months, the issue returned and persisted. Until I finally turned the car in on 5-1-2024. After 26 days, I was given an estimate of more than $4,000 for diagnostic services and repairs. I trusted Ford Motor Company so I did everything to be a good client, pay my bill and retrieve my car as quickly as possible. I turned in the rental car on 5/27/24 and was able to pay my bill but 6/7/24. And not 24 hours later, I have the same jerking issue. It occurs when the car is accelerating between 30mph and 50mph; especially when going uphill. I have followed all factory requested specs and have had it serviced regularly. Clearly, there is an issue with this automobile.

We purchased a 2019 Ford Edge Titanium from Car Max. It is 5 years old with only 60k miles. While idling, the engine was bogging and running rough. In addition, a foul smell like firework smoke was coming from the vents. After bringing it to a repair pal certified mechanic, they diagnosed that coolant was leaking into cylinder 2, and we would need a new engine to rectify the issue. The 2019 Ford Edge we purchased was assemble in October 2018, as the 5 year warranty expired in October of 2023. It is experiencing the EXACT SAME problem as all earlier models that were part of the Ford recall. Consequently, we are experience emotional distress in rectifying this issue since the 2019 model year was not covered under the recall bulletin.
