Gas Recirculation Valve (egr Valve) problems of the 2019 Ford Edge

I was driving to work on a busy street, started accelerating and the car completely shut down on me. I had to come to a complete stop on the main road during morning rush hour. Was close enough to idle into a parking lot. All my dashboard lights started flashing with an "engine coolant over temperature" alert. No throttle response. Had to have the vehicle towed to the Ford dealership where they determine that the coolant was leaking into the engine. Replaced the egr cooler ($2300). Drove off the lot and the vehicle was shuttering upon acceleration. A( a known issue with the Ford 2. 0 ecoboost engines but yet there is no recall) after diagnosing, Ford came back and said I need to replace the torque convertor ($3100). This is a 2019 vehicle with 84,277 miles on it. These issues should not be happening. Ford has done nothing but issue TSB's on them.

2019 Ford Edge ran out of coolant without any indication of low coolant level or check engine light, resulting in loss of heat and poor engine performance due to coolant combustion. According to Ford service (who confirmed the root cause), this was due to the known issue of a faulty egr cooler [xxx] ) leaking internally, but repairs had to be paid out of pocket. Loss of heat in winter could be dangerous, and in prolonged error state, catastrophic engine failure could occur. Failure occurred at ~55,000 miles. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

The sensor on the egr cooler failed. I have had my egr cooler replaced two times. The most recent time was in September of 2024. In December of 2024, the engine light came on and the warning messages showed in the Fordpass app stating there was an issue with the exhaust system. After the dealership reviewed it, they had to replace the egr sensor.

The egr cooler (k2gz-9f464-a) on my 2019 Ford Edge titanum ecoboost 2l cracked acutely while driving my children to school. No warning lights came on at any point. Once the car was in park, I noticed large amounts of smoke pouring out of the exhaust pipes. I had my children in the car strapped into car seats. Should the car have caught fire my children's lives would have been in jeopardy. Our lives would have also been at risk for injury should my car have completely failed while driving. This part failure has been confirmed by a repair shop. July 09, 2020, there was a TSB by Ford issued for: 2. 0l ecoboost - illuminated mil with various dtcs and/or low coolant level, white smoke from tailpipe and/or external coolant leak. However, this known failure with TSB information was not dispelled to me (the public) through Ford pass app or by Ford corporate or the Ford dealer, where I purchased the car in 2020. A simple pcm software update would have prevented this issue for occurring. There were no warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure. The issue occurred on 10/02/2024.

My vehicle had to have the egr cooler replaced for the second time. The first time was when the vehicle was at almost 37,000 miles, the second time was at 129,575 miles. Just like during the previous occurrences, the check engine light came on and the message in my Fordpass app advised that there was a problem with the engine cooling system and I needed to proceed to my dealership. In this instance, I had it towed to the dealership rather than driving it. This is the same system that currently has a TSB issued for it.

The contact’s wife owns a 2019 Ford Edge. The contact stated that on several occasions while driving at various speeds, the vehicle jerked when the accelerator pedal was depressed, and the vehicle lost power. The check engine, power train, and several other unknown warning lights were illuminated.

The vehicle was repaired but the failure reoccurred four months later while driving at an undisclosed speed. The contact stated that during the failure the vehicle lost power and failed to accelerate as intended. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic again where it was diagnosed that the wastegate was stuck closed again and turbo charger valve needed to be replaced. On another occasion the contact stated that while driving 30 mph, his wife observed white smoke coming from the exhaust pipe. The contact stated that his wife then observed that the egr and check engine warning lights were illuminated. The message that the "engine overheating” was displayed. The vehicle was steered off the highway and restarted three times after cooling down and was taken back to the same independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the egr valve had failed, the coolant level was low, and there was coolant passing through the exhaust egr coolant system and had leaked into the exhaust system. The contact was informed that the egr system needed to be replaced. The manufacture was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 33,654.

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.

Ford opened a case and is investigating further with the dealer service department.

The vehicle would not accelerate and caused my to bump into a wall. The vehicle is spluttering and the interior filled with chemical smoke caused by a coolant leak and it burning by the motor.

The contact owns a 2019 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the oil warning light was illuminated and there was black smoke coming from underneath the rear end of the vehicle. The vehicle was towed to the dealer, who informed the contact that the egr cooler needed to be replaced. The contact related the failure to technical service bulletin: 20-2234. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 60,000.

Was driving vehicle at 45 mph but once the vehicle slowed down to under 25 mph it would start sputtering. Drove about a half a mile and engine light came on stating engine coolant over temperature. I pulled immediately over into the emergency lane and turned car off. There was thick clouds of smoke rolling out of the exhaust pipes. Even under the hood was some smoke. Once vehicle stopped smoking so badly I opened the hood. I checked the oil and smoke could be seen coming from the oil stick. Looking at the coolant reservoir, it seemed to be empty. I had just had the fluids looked at a week prior to this! called Ford roadside assistance and was told it would be upto 3 hours before a tow truck could arrive. I was on a heavy traffic highway in northern virginia with a child. I called a local tow truck driver who came in about an hour. I paid 300 to have it towed to my home town 74 miles away. Then was told by criswell Ford they could not get to my vehicle for weeks since they had 1 mechanic. Had it towed again by Ford to marlow Ford. They claim the egr cooler failed per technical service bulletin but states no engine damage. I cannot believe this didn't cause engine damage with extreme temps. Where did the coolant go to? I have 42,500 miles on engine and still owe 12k. No vehicle should be doing this. They recalled the Edge from previous years with this issue. Why don't they uphold all years that this egr cooler is failing and not just do a service bulletin. I'm afraid the engine has damage to the intake and will show its ugly self once warranty is no longer at 5/60k. Any help would be appreciated.
