Failure Date: 10/22/2026

At approximately 7:00 a. M. On 10/22/2026 I was driving my 2017 Ford Edge when suddenly there was a loud bang towards the rear of my car. Immediately after, I could hear my rear window shattering, cracking. There were no other cars near me at the time. As I continued to drive, the glass continued to crack and shatter. Glass started to break completely free from my window, and fall inside my rear hatch, as well as on the outside of the car on the road.

2 Equipment problem of the 2015 Ford Edge

Failure Date: 10/17/2026

My 2015 Ford Edge has an inoperative power liftgate. The problem started about a week ago. I would press the lift button and it would work inconsistently. Finally, yesterday, after buying groceries, I attempted to open the liftgate. It stopped leaving a crack. I attempted to pry it open with my fingers and all of a sudden, it started closing on me trapping two of my fingers. I was able to pry them out. It was was very painful and scary. I entered my car and the liftgate ajar light was on. I could do nothing about this. The next morning I learned that my battery was dead. I am now unable to use my car at all. Waiting for Ford to contact me to tow my car to the dealership for the repair.

6 Equipment problem of the 2021 Ford Edge

Failure Date: 08/28/2026

The left rear axle housing due to not enough lubricant. The Ford maintenance shop states they can refill the lubricant but it doesn’t last long and will be back in the shop . So I’m having it replaced due to their recommendation which is a $1,835. 00 fix. I see there were recalls on 2021 Edges but mine wasn’t built in the right time frame apparently and it’s ironic that it is the same exact problem with several 2021 Edges but yet only the ones built in certain months are getting recalled. Makes no sense that if this is hazardous then for safety reasons shouldn’t there be a recall on all of them no matter where or what month they were built. Very disturbing and disappointing. It sure sheds some light on the Ford manufacturing!.

9 Equipment problem of the 2015 Ford Edge

Failure Date: 08/12/2026

The transmission in my 2015 Ford Edge completely broke at about 73000 miles. I heard a loud "clunk" sound at a red light, and the vehicle does not accelerate at all. The check engine light also came on. I had it inspected by a certified mechanic, and the entire transmission needs replacement. Apparently the particular transmission in this vehicle has an extremely high failure rate, and Ford needs to take responsibility for this incredibly expensive failure.

10 Equipment problem of the 2013 Ford Edge

Failure Date: 08/06/2026

While driving on the highway at 70 mph, the driver's side front halfshaft completely detached from the vehicle, causing an immediate loss of drive power and creating a severe crash hazard. ".

12 Equipment problem of the 2017 Ford Edge

Failure Date: 08/02/2026

Vehicle losing acceleration when a small incline is needed after a stop. Engine will rev up but it will not move. Putting vehicle in to park and turning it off and back on again does a small reset and starts moving again. Over the last few months this event has happened multiple times until roughly around 2 months ago it will not move at all. Check engine light is on and code saying "transmission not in park" when you put it in reverse and neutral and drive and sport. Called dealership and they don't pick up the vehicle and want to charge me 180. 00 just to diagnose it.

15 Equipment problem of the 2021 Ford Edge

Failure Date: 07/23/2026

There should be a recall on the sunvisors. Because it is a safety issue, because when the sun is in your face and you can't see driving it can very well cause an accident or getting a ticket for not being able to see your speed that you're going, because you're so far up trying to get the sun out of your face. You can't see any of the controls or your dashboard. . That is a safety hazard. My driver's side one is broken. I can't use it at all and I'm not paying $200 to get it fixed. That's insane on top of that. My passenger side is one is starting to break as well. Also, my car is very sluggish. When I'm driving, it is sluggish back and forth like it doesn't get good acceleration. There should be a recall for that. As well. I've also noticed when I'm stopped at a light, and I slowly let off the brake the car start to jump.

16 Equipment problem of the 2024 Ford Edge

Failure Date: 07/19/2026

Vehicle information year: 2024 make: Ford model: Edge VIN: [xxx] description of the safety issue I am submitting this complaint regarding the unexpected failure of the panoramic glass roof on my 2024 Ford Edge. The vehicle was parked in my residential driveway. As I began backing out of the driveway, I heard a very loud explosion or bang. I immediately stopped and inspected the vehicle. I discovered that the panoramic glass roof had shattered outward. There had been no collision, no rollover, no object striking the vehicle, and no severe weather. The vehicle had simply been sitting in my driveway before I began backing out. The interior sunshade was closed at the time of the incident. After the glass shattered, a substantial amount of broken glass remained on top of the closed sunshade and around the roof opening. I also observed that there was essentially no broken glass in my driveway, which suggests the glass failed from within the panel rather than from an external impact. This sudden failure occurred without warning and created a significant safety concern. Had this happened while I was driving at highway speeds with passengers in the vehicle or with the sunshade open, the results could have been much more dangerous due to falling glass and the driver's distraction. I am requesting that NHTSA investigate this incident to determine whether similar failures are occurring in 2024 Ford Edge vehicles and whether this represents a potential safety defect involving panoramic sunroofs.

17 Equipment problem of the 2021 Ford Edge

Failure Date: 07/14/2026

Transmission has gone out after only having the vehicle for 2. 5 years. It will cost $10,000 to repair and that is not feasible or right. The mileage is at 74,000 but the warranty expired at 60,000. Ford should be held accountable for building these vehicles with awful transmissions.

18 Equipment problem of the 2019 Ford Edge

Failure Date: 07/07/2026

Transmission. Dealership service department stating torque converter internally failed. Need a new transmission or rebuild. The car is shuddering, does not take off smoothly, and jerks when accelerating and turning.

19 Equipment problem of the 2016 Ford Edge

Failure Date: 07/03/2026

A month or so ago my car had a rough idle and the mechanic couldn't figure out why. Then last week my car lost power on the interstate, during rush hour. I'm lucky I didn't cause an accident as the loss of power was so sudden and all the traffic around me. Somehow I was able to safely pull over on the shoulder. I had my car towed and the mechanic found that the flex plate had failed and is cracked. As a result the car will no longer start. The recall letter that my mechanic found stated that a rough idle was one of the symptoms of a failing flex plate. My vehicle is 10 years and 3 months old but only has 93000 miles. The dealership said they won't cover it because it is out of date and their customer service line was no help. There were no warning lights or codes that appeared on the display screen. My mechanic found the issue by taking somethings apart.

20 Equipment problem of the 2016 Ford Edge

Failure Date: 07/01/2026

I'm reporting a severe, well-documented manufacturing defect involving my 2016 Ford Edge with 2. 0l ecoboost engine. The vehicle has been losing radiator coolant constantly with no external puddles or leaks visible. Upon morning cold starts, the vehicle shakes, runs extremely rough and experiences severe engine misfires due to coolant intruding into the combustion cylinders overnight. This internal coolant leak defect caused ignition coil and spark plug failure. This structural defect creates a critical safety hazard. The coolant intrusion has caused the engine to stumble and threatens a total loss of motive power and engine stalling while operating in traffic, creating an imminent risk of a rear-end collision. This vehicle matches the exact failure profile detailed in Ford's technical service bulletin TSB 19-2346 regarding structural engine block coolant intrusion. I'm filing this complaint to support the ongoing federal defect investigation for the Ford ecoboost coolant intrusion issue and urge NHTSA to mandate a safety recall, as this engineering flaw creates a dangerous driving condition. Thank you for your time and attention to this important matter. I look forward to receiving a response.

21 Equipment problem of the 2022 Ford Edge

Failure Date: 07/01/2026

The motorized track assembly separated from the moonroof interior sunshade on my 2022 Ford Edge, leaving the sunshade drooping down in the passenger compartment. While my vehicle is just out of the standard bumper to bumper warranty period, I feel Ford motor company should issue a repair recall to all affected owners to fix this issue.

22 Equipment problem of the 2019 Ford Edge

Failure Date: 06/25/2026

Egr cooler is broken, which could have caused engine damage and potentially could have led to car catching on fire with my daughter and I in it. Vehicle had trouble starting, then white smoke started coming out of exhaust. My daughter and I were stranded, waiting for a towing company. Cost of repair is more than $2600. There were no warning lamps, messages or symptoms prior to the issue. This problem has been diagnosed by a Ford dealership. I spoke with Ford customer service and they refuse to pay for the repair. The following article describes current class action lawsuits against Ford on this issue: [xxx] "according to the lawsuit, Ford has known of the ecoboost coolant leak problem since at least 2010, based on pre-production tests, early warranty claims, replacement part orders, numerous technical service bulletins and consumer complaints submitted to the automaker’s dealer network and the national highway traffic safety administration (NHTSA). Nevertheless, Ford has “knowingly, actively and affirmatively omitted and concealed the existence” of the defect in order to sell more vehicles, the suit alleges. As for owners and lessees, the complaint alleges the drivers have overpaid for vehicles that increase their chance of being involved in a collision due to an engine overheating, catching fire or catastrophically failing, the lawsuit says.

24 Equipment problem of the 2013 Ford Edge

Failure Date: 06/16/2026

On the 2013 Ford Edge I own the backup camera fails frequently and without warning. Sometimes the camera will not work at all when the transmission is placed in reverse, other times the camera will fail while during the process of backing up. Problem - does not work at all: when the car is placed in reverse the camera projects a blue screen then states the camera is not available, this happens when it does not work at all. Problem - shuts down while in use: turns off while in use, one has the rear camera view when backing up, then the camera does one of two things it flips flops (top to bottom) or flashes a blue screen then states the camera is not available. And then sometimes the camera will work for one to three times (the camera is working while backing up, turn the vehicle off, exit / re-enter the vehicle and it works for backing up, but the next time the vehicle is entered and placed in reverse the camera is not working at all and the message reads camera is not available. This has been occurring on a more frequent basis over the last month.

25 Equipment problem of the 2018 Ford Edge

Failure Date: 06/15/2026

I have a 2018 Ford Edge where the liftgate will not open at all from any method—key fob, interior button, or the hatch button. This appears to be a mechanical or electrical failure, and I’m concerned it may be a defect and a potential safety issue since the trunk cannot be accessed. It has had many safety recalls reguarding a lot of issues, the rear view camera is in the same area, so they fixed my camera but they wouldn't fix the trunk not opening, I feel this is major safety issue, should I get pinned in my car while in an accident, on day in where I live in [xxx] and it's 110 outside with my mom or my kids, it could cause us to lose our lives. It's clear they know it's a problem, it a known issue but they are doing nothing to fix, because I purchased the car used and the warrenty for them was over in 05/08/2026. This dangerous, and not something I as the buyer/drive caused. I wasn't in accident, I wasn't in flood, I did not cause this damage and they should fix. Espcially knowing they already have problems with this area on the car. However, they want me to go get the car checked for transmission issues cause there a recall on that on my car, customer satification number 22n12. I am asking for help. There are no lights on, no messages from the car it just stops randomly working. This has been going for about 4 months. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

26 Equipment problem of the 2019 Ford Edge

Failure Date: 06/12/2026

While accelerating from a stop or at lower speeds, the vehicle jerks or lurches significantly during gear changes. The jerking continues until the vehicle reaches cruising speed. The condition affects drivability and creates concerns about vehicle control when entering traffic or crossing intersections. The problem has persisted despite normal operation. The vehicle has been diagnosed as requiring transmission repair/rebuild. I am aware of Ford technical service bulletin 21-2389, which describes shuddering, bucking, or jerking in certain 2019 Ford Edge vehicles. The symptoms my vehicle exhibits appear similar to those described in the bulletin.

A vehicle passing by behind the Ford Edge, noticed it slowly rolling backwards and did not stop colliding with the back of her truck.

35 Equipment problem of the 2020 Ford Edge

Failure Date: 05/05/2026

I was driving on the highway with my husband and our dog when out of nowhere the panoramic sunroof exploded. We were traveling home and could have been in an accident when it occurred because it sounded like a gunshot hit the car. If we had not been calm during the incident, not only our lives but the lives of everyone around us could have been affected. There were no warnings about this and when we purchased the vehicle in 2023 the dealership didn’t even say anything about a possiblity of this happening. I did research after it happened to make sure there wasn’t a recall we missed and I came across lawsuits because of this.
