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.

And also I just paid $672 to have the drivers side door latch replaced because the recall had expired in November of 2025 the door ajar light would stay on and the dash would say place vehicle in park.

About a month ago, July 2026, I started to notice shaking bumping when car shifted out of first gear. Brought to local garage and they said needs new transmission.

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.

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. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

While driving between 50 and 60 mph, the car seems to be swaying left and right.

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.

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).

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.

The rear back up camera stopped working , goes black or flips upside down. Sometimes even flickers and then says contact your local dealer for assistance.

Rear camera keeps going blue and then will go out. But it will come back for a day or so and then go out again. I know this is a known problem on these vehicles and I need mine fixed. As well as the purge valve that has also been a known issue as well.

Rear view camera, image is displayed upside down or will also go blank sometimes.

2018 Ford Edge 2. 0l ecoboost. Vehicle cel came on, took it to the dealership for diagnostic and report indicated a known TSB 22-2229 to apply to my vehicle's condition. Trouble code p0302. White exhaust smoke, misfire at start up, low coolant levels, runs rough. Dealer performed a borescope inspection and found the engine long block has internal fluid leak. My safety, my kids, and others on the road were put as risk because at any given moment, the car could have overheated, stalled and caused an accident. The engine is available for inspection upon request. Prior to the cel, the car began shaking and blowing white exhaust smoke. Now I'm left with no car as a single mom trying to make ends meet. Ford won't help to pay $13k for a new engine with a known manufacturing defect.

When in drive , going in to park, as soon as you turn dial, it jumps to park, so no neutral or reverse capability. And pops a code of shift system fault.

The 2017 Ford Edge was parked in a parking spot, the shifter visually and physically engaged in the park position. Exited the vehicle went into the store. A vehicle passing by behind the Ford Edge, noticed it slowly rolling backwards and did not stop colliding with the back of her truck. The Ford Edge still showed as it was in park during this occurrence after for the research, it does appear that Ford does have an issue with this and it is a known issue just no specific recall issued for this specific Ford Edge.

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.

Ford failed to provide me with timely updates regarding recall campaign 26s09 as required by law. They said a remedy would be available by 27 April 2026. That date has now passed and there is still no remedy nor any updates about when a remedy would be available.

While driving on sam houston tollway going 65 mph, I heard a loud explosion scared me and caused me to swerve into the lane next to me narrowly missing the car next to me. I thought I had a blowout I pulled over to the side of the freeway and found it was the sunroof that exploded. This created a serious situation that could have been catastrophic.

Transmission failure. Way to common with these transmissions and touqure converters.

For over a year, engine shudders/jerks when accelerating. I see this has been a repeated complaint by many for a few years now. How is this not a recall?????.

My 2019 Ford Edge has a powertrain malfunction and it states to seek the dealership immediately! the SUV is swaying badly and the auto start/stop components scares me whenever restarts and there is a burning smell- its nearly causing me to lose control once it restarts. . Please help im affraid to drive it. This is my only means of transportation and I am dissabled.

On March 22, 2026, I was returning home from a trip to visit my mother in colorado. The wind in kansas was horrible on that day. While in the middle of the state, one of the panels around the sunroof on my 2015 Ford Edge came off of my car and shattered in the road behind me. Moments later, 3 other panels blew off and shattered on the road. I was in shock! someone could have been killed or severely injured! I am still in shock! the next day, Monday the 23rd, I took the car over to james river Ford near my house and had them look at it. They stated that they had never seen this before. All but one of the panels around the sunroof had come off! they looked up recalls for me, but none were on the sunroof panels. Again, I was in shock. How could a car have been designed such that there was the possibility that the roof of the car could come off randomly while driving down the highway? I looked online and there was a lot of talk on how these panels are notorious for coming off! there are multiple stories of issues with these panels. I purchased this car used and would have preferred to not have a sunroof, but I really liked the rest of the car. In fact, the sunroof did not work properly when I first purchased the car, so I chose not to even use it. Now, to have the panels rip off and shatter on the road is extremely alarming and frustrating! most importantly, I need to know that Ford understands the dangers of these poorly designed panels around their panoramic sunroof! no “special” sunroof design is worth the dangers that these can cause if they come off. I do not see other vehicles around with these types of panels. I reached out to Ford online on March 23rd and April 2nd. Of course, nothing really came of that, which is why I am reached out and sent them a certified letter. I am extremely disappointed with my vehicle at this point. Fixing it will be expensive, so I may just drive around without panels so that people can see what happen.

I am writing to express my concern with how Ford is handling safety recall 25s89. I have had numerous incidents where the camera has failed when backing up and have photos to document these instances. I brought my 2017 Edge to the dealership today and was told that it did not need replacement. So, it's "safe" to have the camera display a blank screen some of the time? I would think that the rationale behind a backup camera is that it is safe 100% of the time or it should be replaced. If a part fails only some of the time, is it considered a safe part per the NHTSA? I would really appreciate hearing back from someone at NHTSA on this issue and perhaps there needs to be review with Ford on how this is being handled.
