| Aug 2025 | POWER TRAIN | The torque converter within the power train system failed, causing the vehicle to shutter while traveling at speeds up to 45 mph, then eventually not even allowing the vehicle to reach 45 mph at all.

This is a known problem to Ford, there are many complaints from people who own a Ford Edge with the torque converter going out, but Ford has yet to issue a recall. My car is currently at the service department of a Ford dealership with the torque converter being confirmed as the culprit. This is week 3 that my car has been sitting there waiting for the repairs, because the torque converter is on back order. There were no warning lamps that came on to alert me there was any issue with my vehicle. The only way we found out was by taking it to have it looked at because of the shuttering. No warning lamps or messages whatsoever. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

| Aug 2025 | STEERING,POWER TRAIN,ENGINE | Last year, the 2.0 ecoboost had a coolant intrusion. After 2 times ford dealer talking with someone in company, the repacerd egr valve, egr cooler and finally had a long block motor installed. Then a little while later had to replace transmission, then the steering box. My extended warranty covered this but it ran out at the end of May. I think I should be compensated either by extended warranty or money. Any of those problems could have resulted in an accident.
