| Jul 2025 | FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | There is an issue with starting the car after fueling up the car every time for past 6-8 months. Car appears to not be getting fuel and I have to keep pressing the accelerator pedal to try and start the car making it sound like I could potentially flood the engine. I was told this might have something to do with there being no gas cap on this model. It is unsafe as it sometimes causes the vehicle to not start or stall after starting when pulling away from the gas pump. This only happens when adding fuel to the vehicle, at no other time do I experience this malfunction. I have not taken it to a Ford dealer or service center yet due to not wanting to be blindsided by something else mysteriously being labeled as "wrong" or in need of repairs. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jul 2025 | POWER TRAIN | The contact owns a 2019 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while his daughter was driving 35 MPH and depressing the accelerator pedal, the vehicle hesitated and stalled. The contact was informed by his daughter that the vehicle felt like it was in START/STOP Mode. A dealer was contacted. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed and determined that the transmission needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, opened a case, and transferred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline to report the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 66,000. | Crash: No Fire: No | 66,000 |
| Jul 2025 | FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | The car sputters while driving and jolts especially during take offs. When took it to dealership they said they tried everything there was nothing they could do to fix it. My best option was to get another car. I can’t afford another car. The problem is persistently getting worse. I’m afraid that it is going to just end up dying in the middle of the street. Car has less than 70,000 miles on it. I take great care of it. Was one of my favorite cars until a problem occurred with no way of fixing and no clue if it will cause an accident The original problem started out last year small and bearable but it’s been the last 2 days that it has just took a complete turn for the worse | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jul 2025 | POWER TRAIN | Transmission needs replacement after only 82,000 miles with regular oil changes and routine maintenance. Ford dealership quote $9600 plus tax for repair. It is unacceptable for Ford to manufacture and sell vehicles with known transmission issues. This could lead to myriad of safety issues. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jul 2025 | POWER TRAIN | Two instances now where I am driving vehicle start shuttering. Jerks then speeds up and selecting random gears. Checked fluid levels all fine. Had another incident on the freeway where I suddenly went from 70 mph to a screaming vehicle that rapidly slowed down to 30 mph. I was forced to idle back on the shoulder. Vehicle is back in the shop again. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jul 2025 | POWER TRAIN | In my 2019 ford edge sel the transmission is slipping gears at a continuously inconsistent rate. It flutters from 2000rpm to 3000 rpm the entire time it is driven. Sometimes it will slip gears so bad my car will stop very harshly with a loud bang. There are no warning lights present. When driving on the highway and this happens it causes safety concerns because I am abruptly slowing down. The vehicle does not fully stop or turn off. The collision sensor has gone off when it happens. When driving at lower speeds the transmission flutter is at its worst. Normally when slowing down/ stopping at the stop sign or red light then accelerating when it’s clear to continue driving. I have not had the vehicle inspected yet but my transmission is getting flushed next week to see if that helps while I can save up to buy a new one. This is a constant issue that randomly started a few weeks ago. I did not drive my car often but relocated and live an hour away from my job. Now that I’m driving it more frequently it has developed some sketchy habits. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jul 2025 | ENGINE | Our 2019 Ford Edge (purchased in November 2018) has had a coolant leak into the engine's cylinders. As a result we are facing an estimated $12,000 expense to essentially rebuild the engine. In doing some research, it appears as if there is a class action lawsuit already filed against Ford for the 2015-2018 Edge. Our situation is exactly the same as that described in the lawsuit. Therefore, it seems as if Ford still has not rectified the issue. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
