| Nov 2022 | VISIBILITY | While driving on the freeway, we heard a loud crash, thinking a tire had blown out. Instead, it was the moon/sun roof glass that shattered/imploded. It was a clear day, no bridges overhead or large trucks on the road. Thankfully, the panel was closed so glass didn't fall into the vehicle, but the glass panel was completely damaged. Aside from being very scary, it could have been extremely dangerous had it been open or if glass would have flown all over the freeway. We immediately cleared off the glass and taped the perimeter of the panel to keep the remaining glass intact. There was no warning and there was no signals on the dash after it happened. We reported it to our insurance AAA, and the issue has since been fixed. The company that repaired it was through our insurance recommendation and they said it was not the first time they had seen this issue happen. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Nov 2022 | POWER TRAIN | The contact owns a 2019 Ford Edge. The contact stated while driving at an unknown speed, the vehicle started to jerk and failed to accelerate as needed. The contact drove back to the residence; however, while attempting to restart the vehicle, the vehicle failed to start. The vehicle was towed to the dealer and was diagnosed, and the mechanic determined that the transmission needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was contacted and stated that the vehicle was not included in NHTSA Campaign Number: 20V550000 (Power Train) and advised the contact to file a complaint with the NHTSA Hotline. The failure mileage was 90,000. | Crash: No Fire: No Towed | 90,000 |
| Nov 2022 | ENGINE | My vehicle overheated as I was driving to work (hardly 5 months after the warranty expired). I pulled over as the engine was smoking. Turns out engine failure the engine was not repairable. So, I took it to my trusted mechanic who ordered the engine from Ford. Within 2 weeks of getting my Edge back, the check engine light was on, the power train light came on too and within seconds of that the engine overheated again. The engine was taking in coolant and burned up again just as the first time. This is a Ford engine issue. Completely ridiculous and unsafe. I’m 5 months pregnant and should not have to worry if my new vehicle is safe or if the engine is going to blow up again. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Nov 2022 | WHEELS | We were informed that the lug nuts on our wheels were swollen and distorted. They suggested getting them replaced. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Oct 2022 | POWER TRAIN | When driving my vehicle at speeds between 23 and 32 the transmission chugs like it can't decide which gear to be in, so it is always shifting between gears. I've talked to the local dealer and they can't figure it out, telling me that there isn't anything wrong with it instead of checking with Ford or other dealers. This has been an on going problem since I leased it, in 2019, and then bought it Sept. 2022. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Oct 2022 | VISIBILITY | I came out to my car after work and the sunroof had exploded and was heaving upwards | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Oct 2022 | ENGINE | I was driving the vehicle in highway traffic with a slowdown in the morning , I was driving 14mph and vehicle had about 60,005 miles. The engine started knocking hard while I was driving, prior to this the engine had no issues. The diagnosis’s that the Ford dealership gave was that engine threw and engine rod on cylinder number 6, there was no warning lights that showed. Issue has been reported to Ford and they have yet to reached out due to their engine failing just a few miles over 60k. If i was in regular speed traffic my vehicle would of stopped right on traffic lanes and could of caused an accident. Vehicle is currently in the Ford shop awaiting for repair cost. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Sep 2022 | POWER TRAIN,ENGINE,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | 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. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Sep 2022 | FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | Was driving on freeway, in the middle lane, and card just started slowing down for no reason, pressed gas and it still was slowing down. It felt like the brakes were being applied even though I was just pressing the gas. Finally it stopped and I turned the car off and then back on and the problem went away. I think it was the adaptive cruise control and not the collision avoidance because no warnings came u on the dash. Luckily the cars behind me were able to stop without rear ending me but they sure were angry with me. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

| Sep 2022 | POWER TRAIN | Sunday September 4th my 2019 Ford Edge with 35,995 miles, started idling rough, and white smoke started coming out of the tailpipes. I completed my drive to my sisters house and left it to set and cool down for about 5 hours. When I left to head home it lurched forward while coming to a stop sign and went dead. I started it back up and a bunch of white smoke came out of the tailpipes and it smelled awful so I barely pulled it off to the side. My brother in law came and picked us up and he said the car was way too hot to have been sitting for that long. I had my son in the back seat and this all scared him to death. Through all of this not one dashboard light came on. No engine overhearing light, no check coolant light, no check engine light - NOTHING. I had it towed to the dealership the next day. Dealership says they replaced the EGR cooler and reprogrammed the PCM. Hopefully I have no further issues. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

| Aug 2022 | ENGINE,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | I cut my car off to fill up with gas, after filling up with gas I get back in my 2019 Ford Edge Titanium 2.0 Eco Boost and my car would not crank. It was turning over but would not crank. Finally, after my fourth time trying to start my 2019 Ford Edge it finally started and I had pump the gas pedal to keep it running. Then I noticed the engine light on, and my 2019 Ford Edge was running rough and sounded horrible. I took my 2019 Ford Edge to the Ford Dealership and was told that the Purge Solenoid Valve was bad, Giving my 2019 Ford Edge a default code a P0456 Fault Code (Evaporative Emission System Leak Detected, Severity 1 of 3, Service Should Be Scheduled and Repaired). My 2019 Ford Edge Titanium 2.0 only had 74,000 miles at the time this happened. The Ford Dealership told me that the Purge Solenoid Valve is/was not covered under the warranty. I believe a recall should be posted for the 2019 Ford Edge Titanium 2.0 Eco Boost. Because the part should not fail at under 100,000 miles. Also, this could affect the Oxygen Sensors Failing also. As a result of leaving a family stranded at the gas pump because there car will not start.

| Jul 2022 | WHEELS | Went to Stevens 112 Ford for Oil Change and “The Works”. Service man came out to tell me the lug nuts were swollen and they couldn’t rotate tires without destroying the lug nuts. It was advised to me, it would cost me $519.00 plus tax to replace the lug nuts. I advised the service man not to perform the task, as I was not getting billed that exorbitant charge for lug nuts that are not very old. There is obviously something terribly wrong with the way these lug nuts are designed and manufactured. I have never experienced this type of issue in the past on any of my Ford vehicles. FORD NEEDS TO SERIOUSLY CONSIDER THIS ISSUE AND RECALL THE PRODUCT. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

| May 2022 | SEAT BELTS | I noticed that the the drivers seat belt will not retrack and is unable to be used when it's hot outside, i.e. above 80 degrees or sot! It gets stuck and and I am unable to pull it out for proper use. This is a major hazard and it is required by law to be in use in my state of Michigan. It has not been inspected but through online research, I unfortunately discovered that this is a common problem for this vehicle. There weren't any warning signs prior to this seatbelt failure. Thank you. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
