| Mar 2026 | AIR BAGS | The contact owns a 2022 Ford Escape. The contact stated that while entering an onramp at 40 MPH, the vehicle in front of her vehicle came to an abrupt stop, and the contact crashed into the vehicle. The contact stated that only the front driver side knee air bags deployed upon impact. The contact was taken to the hospital by ambulance and was treated for pain in her chest as well as an injury to her left carotid artery. Due to the severity of her injury, the contact was transported to another hospital, where several tests, including a CT scan, EKG, ultrasound, and X-rays, were performed. The contact remained in the hospital overnight and was given medication for her injuries. A police report was filed. The other driver did not sustain any injuries. The vehicle was towed to the contact's home, where an insurance adjuster inspected the vehicle. Neither the dealer nor the manufacturer had yet been notified of the failure. The vehicle had yet to be diagnosed or repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 63,000. | Crash: Yes Fire: No Injuries: 1 Towed Medical attention | 63,000 |
| Mar 2026 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | This car I bought a year ago from the dealership has stalled out numerous times. It has been to the dealership multiple times to be fixed. The battery has been replaced along with the fuel pump twice. The car has been to the dealership several times. They can not seem to figure out the problem. I am not sure what to do. But this is becoming a hazard on the road. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Mar 2026 | FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | Vehicle started shuddering. Year is a 2022 so less than 5 years old. My son and I both drive this vehicle and the car starts to slow and jerk making it unsafe to drive. Taken vehicle to many shops who could not find the problem. Finally took it to Ford and they confirmed the torque converter is failing. I bought this vehicle because I thought it would be a safe family vehicle and boy was I wrong. Please make this right. I've done my research and I've seen many complaints about this same exact problem. Noone in this current economy has 11,000 to put into a vehicle I still have 6 years to pay on. This vehicle is new and should not need a new transmission. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Feb 2026 | AIR BAGS | Airbag System Failure Warning - Dealer is unable to diagnose The ford pass app alerted me that my airbag system was not functioning and instructed me to not drive the vehicle and to have it towed to a dealership. This too me seemed like a very serious alert. I immediately called the dealer and brought the vehicle in to have it looked at. During the call the dealership technician confirmed for me that the problem had persisted for a couple of days prior and was concerned that I just found out about it. Naturally the day I took it in the light went off. The technician looked at it for over a day and ultimately said they could not determine the cause. They then advised me to continue driving the vehicle and only return when the warning appears again. I called Ford to get their take on this problem and to ask for help, and I got the same response, that there is nothing that the dealer can do unless the light is actively on. This contradicts fords own safety warning and leaves me driving a vehicle that may have a non-functional airbag system. I am reporting this because it appears to be a potential safety defect, and the dealership was unable to repair it. I am not sure if this is a defect of the airbag system itself, or the system that monitors the safety of the vehicle. If there is a couple days of specific warnings that ford and the dealer has access too, I wouldn't think that they would need the light to be actively on for diagnosis. I have attached a screenshot the warning in the ford pass app, however it will no longer let me view details that I had before, just the occurrence and warning name. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Feb 2026 | AIR BAGS | The contact owns a 2022 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while driving across an intersection, a work vehicle ran across the intersection.

The contact exited the vehicle from the front passenger-side door. The police were called to the scene. The vehicle was towed to a collision center. The contact sustained injuries to the right shoulder and right hip. The contact was taken to the hospital by a family member later in the day.

| Jan 2026 | POWER TRAIN | I was driving to work, was approx 15 miles into trip when the wrench sign came on the dash, within the next 5 to 10 miles the vehicle starting shifting weird, by the next 5 miles as I pulled to stop light the vehicle had hard shifting down and would be hesitant to move when pushing on gas and within the next few miles continued to get worse and started smelling a burnt smell. Pulled into hospital parking lot and had a pwertrain failure on the ford app. Edge Titium 2022 with approx 91000 miles, mostly highway miles, towed to dealership, extended warranty only will cover certain amount of transmission which now leaves me either getting a used with only a 6 month guarantee or paying for a new one. Prior to this there had been no shifting or other indicators that the transmission had any problems. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

| Jan 2026 | POWER TRAIN | I was driving down the road in Sioux Falls and went to go on a green light and pushed on accelerator and car hesitated. It finally decided to go and started jerking and going thru all of the gears at once. It did this several times on the way home. There was a lot of traffic out also. The next day I was driving from my house in Harrisburg and it started jerking and deacceralting on its own (with traffic behind me). I got to the stop sign and kept smelling smoke. I shut the car off and restarted it and could only drive 10 miles per hour to get to the shop. This has happened 5 different times. I got to the shop and they said it was my transmission. They stated they hooked it up to computer and threw codes out. 8 days later I took to another shop and they stated the same thing (this shop took my car for test drive and understood what I was talking about). I called Ford about it and they stated they could not help me and hung up. It is a safety issue. I could of been crossing railroad tracks when this happened and a train could of been coming down the tracks. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2026 | POWER TRAIN | As we were driving the vehicle it started to hesitate then would begin slipping as it shifted to the point it had to be babied as you drove it. Less than 10k miles out of warranty and only three years old. All of the previous awd edge models had a recall by Ford to cover what I learned was a failing torque converter, requiring a full transmission rebuild. This model has yet to be covered even though it is having the exact same problems as previous versions. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

| Dec 2025 | POWER TRAIN,UNKNOWN OR OTHER,ENGINE | To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally report an ongoing and concerning issue with my 2022 Ford Edge. My vehicle has begun hesitating when pressing the accelerator and jerking between 20 mph and 40 mph. Some days the issue is worse than others, but it has progressively made the vehicle feel unreliable and unsafe to drive. At times, it feels as though the vehicle may break down while in motion. After researching this issue, I have found that many other Ford Edge owners are experiencing the same symptoms, with the torque converter frequently identified as the cause. This appears to be a widespread and recurring problem rather than an isolated incident. Additionally, the vehicle will coast between approximately 2,000 and 5,000$. This behavior is not normal and raises serious concerns regarding drivability, safety, and long-term damage to the transmission. Given how common this issue appears to be among Ford Edge vehicles, I strongly believe this warrants further investigation and the establishment of a recall. Owners should not be financially responsible for a known and recurring manufacturing defect. I am requesting that Ford address this issue promptly and take responsibility for repairs associated with this problem. I appreciate your time and look forward to a resolution. Sincerely, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6) | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
