Dec 2025 POWER TRAIN Purchased 2019 ford edge 9/14/2025, used with 53 thousand miles. On 12/06/2025, the transmission is leaking from a gasket and slow to accelerate with a burning smell and dirty transmission fluid. Miles now 58 thousand miles.

Dec 2025 POWER TRAIN Torque converter failed at 82000 miles. Had been showing hesitation for some time. Found out this is a common problem for this year and model. No recall yet. I just paid $4226 to replace torque converter at the Ford dealership! There were no warning lights or messages.
Incident: Sep 2025
Crash: No Fire: No Unknown
Dec 2025 POWER TRAIN At approximately 70,000 miles, the car has started to surge and shudder at nominal speeds (between 20-40 MPH, but will continue to shudder even with my cruise control on in highway conditions.) This is a known issue with this vehicle and has been reported by multiple people. I took it into the dealership and it's going to cost me $5000 just to replace the converter. There is no reason that my car should be experiencing before even getting close to 100,000 miles.
Incident: Dec 2025
Crash: No Fire: No Unknown
Dec 2025 POWER TRAIN My vehicle has the 8F35 transmission and is experiencing severe jerking and shuddering. With the current snow and slick roads, the car feels unsafe to drive. The sudden jerks make me fear I could lose control, slide into another car, or end up in a ditch. I’m also worried about the loss of power this transmission issue causes, which increases the risk of an accident—especially when pulling out onto the highway. I’m genuinely afraid it may jerk, stall, and cause a serious collision. Regarding TSB 21-2389, my local Ford dealership told me the reprogramming would not fix the issue and didn’t attempt it. They stated that I need a torque converter replacement, which is a $3,300 repair that Ford should be responsible for. Allowing vehicles with known safety-related transmission problems to remain on the road is unacceptable. I also followed up in June of this year about TSB 25-2154. I have a voicemail from the dealership’s GM saying they would take care of the issue after I contacted him, but nothing came of it. They refused to help unless I paid out of pocket due to the vehicle’s mileage. This is my primary daily driver, so the mileage continues to rise out of necessity, not neglect. I’m doing everything I can to drive as safely as possible, but this is becoming increasingly dangerous. I’m asking Ford to take responsibility for this known defect and properly address it. A recall is necessary to keep these vehicles safe to operate.

Nov 2025 VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,ENGINE The torque is shuttering like crazy. I took it into Ford months ago multiple times and they said they had no idea because nothing was coming up, no codes or anything. I have been religious with maintenance checks and whatever they recommend at the dealership. Today my check engine light went on and the cores that came up were about my torque shuttering. Ford released a TSB about the shuttering on my make and model and saying the course of action is to replace the torque converter. I called Ford and told them all this and they quoted me thousands and said they aren’t liable for the repairs. How are they not responsible when this is a manufacturing issue? The car is unsafe to drive and Ford even released a TSB but they refuse to fix it.

Nov 2025 POWER TRAIN My 2019 Ford Edge's transmission completely failed. It is $8,067.89 to replace. It only had 110,000 miles on it when the transmission stopped working. The car stopped working in the middle of traffic. It would go forward instead of backward and vice versa, and then completely stopped going. We're lucky we weren't stranded far away from home or on the highway when this decided to happen.

Nov 2025 UNKNOWN OR OTHER I am submitting this complaint regarding my 2019 Ford Edge, which now requires a full transmission replacement despite having fewer than 90,000 miles. A major transmission failure at this mileage is highly abnormal for a vehicle of this age and maintenance history. Prior to the failure, I experienced shuddering and irregular shifting, yet the vehicle’s warning lamps did not consistently illuminate to indicate that there was a problem. The lack of warning indicators prevented early detection and contributed to the severity of the issue. I received a repair estimate from Don Seelye Ford in Kalamazoo, MI, totaling $11,534.07 for the transmission replacement and related service. This cost is excessive and entirely unexpected for a vehicle with under 90,000 miles, and it places a significant financial burden on me as the owner. Given the premature nature of this failure, the safety concerns it created, and the extremely high repair cost, I am requesting a full review of this matter and consideration for assistance or coverage.

Nov 2025 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,UNKNOWN OR OTHER,ENGINE Was told by mechanic that my engine has a coolant leak and has caused engine failure. The car has been jerking whenever I accelerate. The remote start does not function from my key fob and I have been unable to pair the Ford pass app with that. The USB ports for Android Auto also don't seem to work. If I drive over a small bump on the road, it disconnects my phone from Android Auto. I then have to unplug the cable then replug back into my phone or the USB port to hopefully get it to work again.

Nov 2025 POWER TRAIN My vehicle began jumping when switching from drive to reverse. When I placed the car into reverse, it stalled and would not switch into reverse or neutral. The car stalled in the middle of a parking lot. The check engine light did not come on initially, and when it did, it did not remain on for very long. The car prompted a Shift Solenois B Stuck On error (P0757:00-E8), as well as an inability to engage neutral error (P073D:00-6C) and transmission friction element error (P2701:00-6C). The valve body has been replaced, but the transmission is still promoting the same errors.
