Jan 9, 2026

The transmission has severe shuddering when accelerating up to 40mph. I’ve had the torque converter replaced twice and the issue has remained. Over time the speed of shuddering has expanded up to 40mph before it drives smoothly.

Jan 7, 2026

AFter replacing torque converter 3 months ago, I now need a complete transmission replacement due to losing gears 3-5 and reverse.

Jan 3, 2026

While driving my vehicle on the first day of 2026 at a speed between 20 to 40 mph, I suddenly noticed that the car stopped responding to the gas pedal and would not accelerate. I immediately felt a loss of power. I pulled over to the side of the road, turned the engine off completely, and then restarted it. When I tried to shift into reverse, the car didn’t respond. I switched to Drive, and it moved forward, but a message appeared on the dashboard stating: “Powertrain Malfunction / Reduced Power.” Shortly after, the check engine light came on. I checked the fault through ford app and the message was “ The powertrain control system has detected one of the transmission shift solenoids is not responding as expected or is stuck in the on position. Some transmission gears may not being available resulting in delayed or harsh shifts into another gear” I left the car parked and had it towed to a local repair shop for diagnosis. The vehicle has not yet reached 57,000 miles. Thankfully, this issue occurred while I was driving at a low speed on a side street. I can’t imagine what could have happened if I had lost power on a highway—it could have led to a serious accident. The problem occurred suddenly, with no prior warning signs. The car is currently being inspected at the shop

Transmission needs to be rebuilt and car has less than 70k miles. Torque converter is failing and leaking fragments through the transmission.

Dec 29, 2025

I had to have the torque converter replaced about 3 months ago and now the transmission is slipping and not shifting into gear.

Dec 29, 2025

While accelerating at points in gear shift change at the speeds of 20 mph, 30 mph, and 40 mph, the transmission bucks, which I found out the hard way during an ice storm, creates a un-smooth shift which leads you spinning the wheels while over accelerating to correct/lessen the bucking making the vehicle less safe and controllable. I work at a Ford dealership and know this issue is happening on Ford/Lincoln models sharing this same transmission with mileage anywhere from 25,000 - 80,000 +.

Dec 28, 2025

Vehicle was hesitating when accelerating at slow speeds from 20 to 40 mph. Took it to Lafontaine Ford dealership and they said I had a bad dpfe sensor which was replaced at a cost of $800. There were no engine codes on the dash. Drove the car the following week and still noticed a slight hesitation/stuttering when accelerating. No engine codes again. This time the dealership confirmed through diagnostic testing that the torque converter wasn’t working correctly and needs to be replaced at a cost of $5000. Now I’m wondering whether the first repair was even needed. I have seen where hundreds probably more, dissatisfied customers have experienced the same problem and Ford has done nothing even though there is a class action lawsuit concerning this issue. And Ford wonders why sales are declining. At the very least they should do is have the customer pay for the part and Ford will pay for the labor to install it.

Dec 20, 2025

After extensive research, this seems to be a very widespread issue spanning across many years of production. I am experiencing a very sharp/sudden jerk or lurch when accelerating at slower speeds. It is not as noticeable / doesn't happen at highway speeds. It's as if the transmission is trying to decide what gear it wants to be in. It has almost caused an accident I would have been claimed at fault for by shuddering and failing to accelerate while driving. There are no engine codes/warning lights. Multiple Ford techs were unable to diagnose the issue and a local shop quoted $8000+ for a transmission replacement. This has happened since the car was bought brand new- currently at ~78k miles.

Dec 19, 2025

Torque converter on my 2019 Ford edge they want $4000 to fix it I have 61,000 miles it stutters when I drive it at Low speeds. It’s hesitant when I take off

Dec 14, 2025

The car would stall every time I put it in drive or reverse. It would also randomly stop while moving and cars have almost hit me due to this. There are no warning lights on the dash to see what it could be. It would shake like crazy and not move. According to forums, these transmissions fail or the torque converter becomes locked up. There are also law suits pending due to this issue. I was stuck in an intersection with cars trying to drive by me and feared for my safety. I would like to have someone inspect the transmission due to my safety and my family’s safety. There were no warnings of the failure and still nothing appearing on the dash.

Dec 13, 2025

The transmission stutters at 20 to 40 mph. Per the Ford dealership in Toledo, Ohio that is a transmission problem and known by the Ford dealerships and Ford manufacture with the Edges. The employee told me that the Fords are known for transmission problems, and the Ford manufacturer has done nothing to fix the issue. I’m wondering why there is not a recall on this and they’re they are not being fixed when they are still being made. The cost of the repair is anywhere from $3900 to $8000 depending on what they find once they tear it apart. They estimate is attached.There are numerous complaints online and you whoever is receiving these complaints have received numerous complaints for the Ford edge transmission, especially for the 2019’s. I would appreciate a response and resolution to this problem.

Dec 12, 2025

My 2019 Ford Edge was having engine problems. I was experiencing shuttering at speeds 20-40 mph. My vehicle odometer is at about 104,000 miles. I took the vehicle into Kendall Ford of Marysville, in Marysville Washington. I requested a diagnostic to determine what was causing the shuttering. I offered a Technical Service Bulletin be performed, as it was a bulletin I found when googling the issues I was experiencing. After the diagnostic the dealership performed Ford Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) TSB 21-2081. After the TSB was performed and did not resolve the issue the dealership said the root cause of the issue is the Torque Converter. I am currently scheduled to have the maintenance to replace the torque converter on 12/15/2025. I read online there are customers and lawyers investigating this same type of issue by Ford and gathering data for a class action lawsuit as this issue is considered a safety hazard, in which Ford is negligent in taking ownership of the issue and notifying the owners via a safety recall.

Dec 11, 2025

I purchased a 2019 Ford Edge in 2021. About a year ago my service engine light came on. I took it to my dealer and was told there was a torque converter issue, but it would not leave me on the side of the road. I have tolerated this stuttering issues more than a year now every time I drive this vehicle. The maintenance on this car has been well maintained. I took my car in for routine maintenance this week and asked about the torque converter issue and was told it would be $6,000 to replace/repair and there could be more issues related to the same that could come up later. It is time for new tires and brakes but doing all of this is more than the value of the car. It appears the torque converter issue is a known problem with the Ford Edge as well as other makers. However, no maker wants to make this a recall issue. How can something that is known and impacting multiple buyers not a recall issue? Because it won't leave me on the side of the road, does that mean it isn't a safety issue? If I have $8000 to repair my car I would just go buy something else. It is also my understanding there is a class action lawsuit regarding this issue. The issue has not caused an accident yet, but the vehicle does not perform as expected and I don't know when the "stutter" will turn to a "stop" and put my family and me in harms way.

Dec 11, 2025

The automatic transmission in my 2019 Ford Edge SEL, stumbles in the middle gears as it shifts through the 8 shift points of the transmission. My car has 68,000 miles on it.

Dec 10, 2025

The contact owns a 2019 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle jerked while shifting gears. There were no warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed, and determined that the torque converter had failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle remained at the dealer unrepaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 71,000.

Mileage: 71,000

Dec 9, 2025

I purchased a 2019 Ford Edge in October of 2023. In the winter/spring of 2025, the vehicle developed an acceleration stuttering issue. Without being fully aware of the issue, I tried a variety of fixes. Fuel injection cleaners were the main attempt at a simple fix. Shortly thereafter, the cars gave an alert for a "evap" issue. I thought this may be the problem, so I scheduled a fix with my local dealer. That issue was determined to be a wiring issue and the stuttering was still present when I received the vehicle back. The issue continued until I was able to schedule another appointment at the dealership in December of 2025. Upon diagnosis, the dealership notified me that there was a torque converter issue and quoted me $4640 to get started on fixing the issue. I have read that these fixes have been made but it did not fix the issue, so I declined. The issue has not caused an accident yet, but the vehicle does not perform as expected and I don't know when the "stutter" will turn to a "stop" and put my family in harms way.

Dec 8, 2025

Car will not shift and shutters, this is putting myself and others at risk. The problem was confirmed by a dealership. There is now a check engine light in the vehicle

Dec 6, 2025

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.

Dec 6, 2025

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 5, 2025

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.

Dec 5, 2025

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.

Dec 4, 2025

Torque converter shutter causing delay acceleration, which can cause issues in traffic. I understand from the transmission shop that the whole transmission is likely to fail because of it which could cause an accident

Dec 1, 2025

Car bucks and shudders when i accelerate. Ford dealer wants over $8,000 to replace torque converter.

Nov 29, 2025

Transmission and torque converter went out at only 83,000 miles. Many other ford edge owners have had the same problem with their transmission and converter as well. This caused me car to hesitate and sputter on the highway which could have caused an accident.

Nov 28, 2025

1) Torque converter 2) studdering and shuddering at take off and acceleration 3) confirmed at dealership on 11/28/2025 4) ford dealership service technician is only inspection 5) no messages only physical symptoms of the shuddering and studdering at take off and acceleration.

Nov 19, 2025

Tranmssion was Jerking has been to dealer mutiple times for reprogramming and torque converter replacement and now at 123,000 the transmission needs to be replaced

Nov 18, 2025

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 12, 2025

Vehicle would not go into reverse suddenly when leaving parking lot, when putting in drive it would jerk forward, yellow tool light came on. Took to dealership immediately and they claim transmission is gone. Ford extended warranty wants a full tear down to rebuild

Nov 4, 2025

Know issue by ford company defective torque converter with service report bulletins for recommended fix’s for there transmission shuddering 20mph to 35mph..failing under @ 83,000 miles. Ford has an open class action lawsuit. And is stiffing people with extremely high repair bill. On average 7,000 to fix. Something needs to be done about this please

Nov 1, 2025

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.

Nov 1, 2025

Completed a transmission change, new battery, oil change, and spark plug change and the car is still jerking when changing gears and touch screen keeps turning off

Oct 31, 2025

Was unable to accelerate quickly. Very scary. Torque converter lurching.

Oct 30, 2025

Power train malfunction warning and chugging while accelerating

Oct 29, 2025

The Edge loses power and jerks and shudders during accelerations. This can major issues when trying to merge

Oct 22, 2025

Vehicle began shuddering and was inspected by Don Hinds Ford Fishers (Scott Krouse). Was told that a new Torque Converter was needed by Don Hinds Ford Fishers Shuddering makes acceleration a challenge which puts everyone at risk of an accident, even death. No warning lights appeared, making this more dangerous.

Oct 22, 2025

Torque convertor failed at approximately 72,000 miles. Car began to stutter between 20 and 30 MPH. This has been confirmed by the Ford dealership and is a known issue. There were know warning lamps or messages.

Oct 20, 2025

Car began to violently shudder starting at around 15 mph up to 35 mph when accelerating. As time went on range of speed where it would shudder increased.

Oct 16, 2025

2019 Ford Edge with 69k miles experiencing shuddering from stop to 30mph. Took to Ford dealership where Torque Converter and Transmission issues found consistent with the existing Advisory. Transmission was replaced at a cost of $10k. Ridiculous amount of complaints and common issues for Edge owners all over the internet.

Oct 10, 2025

My car started to stutter whenever I was at a red light and had to accelerate or when I was turning and had to coast and then accelerate. I thought it was my tires and had Goodyear check my tires.. Then it continued. I thought it was a bad tank of gas so when I filled up again, it was still happening. I brought it into the dealership on Friday, October 3rd. It has been at the dealership ever since. they told me that I need a new torque converter bed. Unfortunately, my extended warranty expired on September 12, 2025. I was driving around with it with the symptoms thinking it was other things. I brought it in when it got worse. It has been at the dealership for a whole week. I went online to check the whole situation out and found out that FORD is very aware of this design problem. It’s the same problem that they’ve been aware of for years. It’s a design flaw in this model car. They are no longer making it. This is the reason why. They are telling me it’s gonna cost anything from $7100-$8500. I went online and found a lot of other people that have had the same issue and they have paid $1600.

Oct 10, 2025

2019 Ford edge 40000 miles and has shuttering and jerky shifting below 30mph. Dealer says torque converter is bad also auto start stop not working. Car is well taken care of and garaged. This seems to be common issues with this model and year vehicle should be a recall

Oct 8, 2025

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? Transmission How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? Had the transmission gone out on the road, she could have been in an accident Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? Yes, independent service center Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representative, or others? NO Were there any warning lamps, messages, or other symptoms of the problem before the failure, and when did they first appear? No warning or CEL before or during the slippage

Oct 4, 2025

Transmission constantly skips or does not engage and is often quite jolting. Have taken it to the dealer several times when it first started happening and they said it was driving fine. Have just over 60,000 miles and it has progressively gotten worse.

Oct 3, 2025

What happened: The torque converter/transmission system failed. My 2019 Ford Edge (VIN [XXX] , 75,000 miles) experiences a shudder and vibration under 60 mph during normal driving, with no diagnostic trouble codes present. This matches the condition described in Ford Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) 25-2154 for the 8F35 transmission. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. Safety risk: The shudder occurs during acceleration and highway merging. It causes the vehicle to hesitate and lurch, which puts myself, passengers, and nearby drivers at risk — especially when merging into traffic or crossing intersections. Loss of smooth power delivery creates a hazard that could result in a collision. Dealer confirmation: The problem has been diagnosed and confirmed by an authorized Ford dealer, who quoted approximately $2,800 for repair (torque converter replacement and PCM reprogram). Manufacturer involvement: The issue was presented to Ford Motor Company, who acknowledged the TSB exists but denied goodwill assistance to cover the repair, even though this is a known defect. Inspections: The vehicle has been inspected by the Ford dealer’s service department. No inspections have been performed by police or insurance representatives. Warning signs/symptoms: There were no warning lamps or error messages. The first symptoms (shuddering and jerking below 60 mph) appeared around [insert month/year you first noticed].

Oct 1, 2025

I am a loyal Ford customer reporting a serious issue with my 2019 Ford Edge, which has about 53,000 miles and is equipped with the 8F35 transmission. The vehicle is experiencing shuddering, bucking, and jerking during acceleration, especially at speeds up to 35 mph. In addition, the auto Start/Stop accumulator switch no longer functions. These issues directly match the conditions described in Technical Service Bulletin 21-2081 and Safety Recall 20S49, yet my VIN is not included in the Safety recall because the part was not assembled at the Oakville plant. I strongly believe this exclusion is unfair and irrelevant—my vehicle has the same defective part and is experiencing the same failures. Ford now recommends replacing the torque converter because the lock-up clutch broke apart, which means metal debris already entered the transmission. This is not a minor issue, and I do not want a temporary or partial fix. I am requesting a full replacement of the transmission—not a refurbished unit—as this damage is systemic and not my fault. These problems have created unsafe driving conditions and have already cost me approximately $7,000 in repairs. I’ve paid $1,300 out of pocket, and while Ford has offered about $2,700 discount, I am still left with about $4,000 balance for a defect I did not cause.

Sep 26, 2025

Complete transmission failure without a known cause. 2019 with just over 120,000 miles but I feel like the transmission should have held up for much longer and it is not the first time I had to have work done. A few years prior, I'd taken it in for a transmission service where they needed to drain and flush the system as well as work on the programming.

Sep 26, 2025

The torque converter is bad and is sputtering, jerking, not shifting, hard shifts, this is not safe. This is a danger to me and others when the car is jerking and not shifting correctly, safety hazard! Ford dealer confirmed the torque converter is bad. Hundreds, if not thousands of others complaining about their Ford Edge having the same issue. No warning or other problems, or symptoms, it just started jerking and sputtering.

Sep 25, 2025

November 2023 - Started noticing there was some unsteady shifting/jerking around 25-35 mph. Car had appx. 68k miles. Took it to 3 different places with all 3 diagnosing as the torque converter. Was told to replace immediately, as could fail at any moment and cause car to stop. July 2025 - Same symptoms. Car has 103k miles on it. Received diagnosis of, “The technician is saying the planetary gearset failure with metallic debris intermixed within the transmission fluid. Due to the age, mileage, condition, and symptoms present on the vehicle the technician is recommending replacing the transmission.” Again, losing transmission would car to come to stop, possibly in traffic lanes. So, this is two major issues with the transmission in 100k miles. Also seems to be a rather common issue with this model, as it didn’t take long to find message boards related to this, and it's now up to 4 pages: [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Sep 25, 2025

The transmission "stutters" causing shifting and acceleration issues. I have complained since shortly after purchasing it new but the exact cause was never diagnosed and/or repaired under warranty as it should have been. Ford has been uncooperative and only has ever offered me the possibility of financial aid if I paid $2200 to have the transmission removed and examined for the defect(s). This a serious safety issue.

Sep 23, 2025

Problem noticed when vehicle was shaking/jolting during acceleration and shifting inconsistently. The 2019 Edge was taken to a trusted independent service center for diagnostics. They found the transmission fluid is full of metal pieces. No warning lamps/messages.

Sep 22, 2025

The vehicle started “bucking” during acceleration 2weeks ago. I took it to a mechanic and diagnostic tool did not show any codes for the engine. The rec was have a transmission diagnostic done so I took it to a transmission shop. The diagnostic shows a faulty torque converter which had already allowed enough debris to flow into and ruin the transmission. The rec is a new transmission at the cost of $11,000 to replace. I do know there was a TSB 25-2154 issued by Ford in May 2025 and there is a current class action suit/investigation. This is a faulty product which could potentially cause harm/accidents and it seems Ford is not adequately addressing it.

Sep 15, 2025

All lights came on randomly ford house said it was the torque converter

Sep 8, 2025

My transmission needed to be overhauled at 65,000 miles, at a cost of $7147 at a Ford dealer. I have all documentation. Symptoms of a power train problems started much earlier than 65,000 miles, possibly around 60,000 miles in summer of 2024. The car was 'pulsing' and losing power when accelerating onto a highway, and in other situations where maneuverability was important. My regular mechanic thought it likely due was misfiring cylinders, and he changed the spark plugs. I asked about the transmission, and he said it was highly unlikely due to the low mileage. But the change in spark plugs did not help the situation. I had no engine warning lights to indicate any transmission problems. The pulsing remained. Late spring 2025, I was getting a new engine light on in the car that I did not recognize. In July, I felt the power drop out (twice) completely during moderate highway traffic traveling from Maine back to Massachusetts in July, which prevented me from keep with the flow of traffic for those instances. Prior to going to the dealer, I went to an independent shop who confirmed my suspicion of the transmission issue through a test drive and with a diagnostic code reader. The shop owner said he had seen this in Ford Escapes before, but mine was the first Edge has had seen. He speculated that since the 2019 cars were now coming of age with similar mileage, he would be seeing a lot more of these issues. He estimated that it would definitely be over $6000 to fix. I chose to have the dealer fix the transmission (higher cost out of pocket) in case of any future recalls where I could be reimbursed. Based on research on the web, this appears to be a common problem with Ford vehicles of this type, built in this timeframe with the 8 speed automatic transmission. I'm surprised there has not been a recall for these transmissions yet. It seems like a poor design that has impacted many consumers. This should be investigated.

Sep 5, 2025

The contact owns a 2019 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the transmission struggled to shift into gear. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer, where it was diagnosed, and the contact was informed that the torque converter was faulty and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 60,000.

Mileage: 60,000

Sep 4, 2025

Transmission is very jerky. Dealership confirms that the torque converter needs replaced.

Aug 30, 2025

my ford edge egr valve failed causing the engine coolant to burn in the engine cylinders and coming out the exhaust if it over headed could have caused engine failure. was repaired with the same parts that failed hope the engine does not have damage that won't be seen till later i looked it up found out there are lots of ford edges and escape doing this plus i had to pay 100 dollars deductible i think ford should recall all these cars and replace with an upgraded part that won't fail my edge only has 34000 miles on it

Aug 28, 2025

The technical bulletin TSB 21-2389. It’s requiring me to get a new torque converter.

Aug 28, 2025

Has the 8f35 transmission which keeps stuttering/jerking at or about 35-45mph. Took it to a transmission specialty shop and to Ford dealership to get quoted over $10k for a new transmission. The vehicle has 67,500 miles

Aug 28, 2025

Our Ford Edge ST has 43,000 on it and there are times that when we if shift from Park to Reverse or Reverse to Drive, it sound and feels like the transmission dropped out of the vehicle and sounds like a bullet from a gun. Since it is out of the 3 year/36,000 warranty, Ford wants $200 to diagnose it and what it will cost to repair it. I haven’t taken to Ford, based on the fact that this as it is a known issue.

Aug 26, 2025

2019 Ford Edge 67K miles. A few months ago experienced 'hesitation" & some jerking once accelerated. It would continue until around 40 mph. Took to dealer, determined initially it was the Purge Valve. This was repaired; however, rec'd a call that torque converter locking & slipping. The fluid has metal parts. They said there was damage to the transmission. They didn't recommend repairing because the same issue will happen. A new transmission in process of being done. Been in service dept. since 8/11/25. Not finished with repairs yet. Found out via search that this issue is common with this year of vehicle & mileage & owners suggest filing a complaint. The warranty has expired & cost of repair is very expensive. Search also seems to have other model years having the same issue.

Aug 25, 2025

2019 Ford Edge with 8F35 transmission, there were no warning lights or codes. Shuddering and jerking both while accelerating and at cruising speeds. At steady highway speed, engine speed would jump by hundreds of RPM a few times times per minute. Problem started at about 70,000 miles and gradually got worse. Changed transmission fluid at 85,000 miles, despite owner's manual recommendation to change at 100,000 miles. Fluid was completely brown, with no trace of red. Shuddering improved but not eliminated.

Aug 25, 2025

Transmission started shuddering when changing gears. Started happening at around 55,000 miles. Have done a transmission fluid replacement, and replaced the torque converter as well since mechanic said the torque converter was going bad. Slight improvement, however still being problematic.

Aug 25, 2025

Ce vehicule est tres dangereux en accelerant et decelerant sur les autoroutes car hesitation a l’acceleration et en decelerant …probleme de transmission et mon vehicule a 53000 km ce n’est pas normal j’espere que vous prendrez cette plainte au serieux car ce n’est pas une usure normal pour un vehicule d’autant plus que j’ai fait remplacer fluide a transmission!!!!

Aug 25, 2025

Transition its not stable.Had to overhaul it with less then 60k mils

Aug 23, 2025 Crash

Transmission is juttering and slipping significantly. Low power on take off and no check engine light on. Dealer states there is nothing wrong but clearly something is wrong with the Transmission.

Aug 19, 2025

The car was starting to jerk it felt like it was not getting gas or something. I took it to the Food Dealership and they told me the torque converter needed to be replaced. The estimate was 4818 plus tax. I researched this issue and found several complaints and feel there should be a recall. I even got an extended warranty but it expired.

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. My safety was put at risk because it could cause a wreck if traveling at higher speeds and the vehicle all of a sudden slows to a lower speed. 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.

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. First took to Lynn layton ford in decatur, took back a couple of weeks and could not get to it, took to eddie pruitt ford in hartselle, where they took care of the problems.

My 2019 Ford Edge transmission has been shuddering, jerking, and harsh shifting at low speeds. I’m afraid when driving the transmission is going to fall out of. the car on the road - doesn’t make me feel safe driving it. Took it to dealer and they tell me it is normal wear and tear on the vehicle, which I question. Call Ford and they tell me there is no recall on this vehicle about its transmission, there should be - it is unsafe. There was no Service Engine Lights, just knocking, jerking as I start to drive the vehicle. Please reach out Ford and heave them fix the issue under a recall.

Vehicle shudders and shakes at low speeds. Been doing this since 43k miles and it now reflects it as a possible torque converter problem.

Jul 18, 2025

Transmission shudder. Will most likely have to pay for a new transmission or torque converter out of pocket in a vehicle with 52k miles and regular maintenance. It is unsafe to drive in its condition as the vehicle could break down/blow up at any given moment. Problem has been inspected and confirmed by licensed mechanic. Absolutely no warning signs. No check engine light or codes appeared. I purchased the car in February 2025 and the shudder started in June 2025. It is my vehicle to commute to work In and I bought it with the intent of getting over 100K miles out of it. I haven’t even hit 10k. This is ridiculous, there are so many people I have been in contact with that have the same issues and have had to pay 3-9k to replace a part that should not be malfunctioning at such low miles!! Ford needs to be held responsible for their mistakes and compensate those who trusted them and bought Edges off of them.

Jul 18, 2025

The car is experiencing shuddering and jerking during acceleration. My research indicates that is a common and prevalent transmission problem in the 2019 and 2020 models. There is a unsafe lag time until adequate speed can be achieved. An independent shop preformed fluid service and took note of the problem. There were no codes related to the transmission.

Jul 15, 2025

when depressing the gas pedal from start to about 35 mph the suv bucks constantly. I get no bucking at highway speeds. Had it scanned and said a misfire on cylinder 4. I replaced all plugs and the coil pack. Still the bucking. Took it to a mechanic. They did a compression test. 166 to 170 then a BG air induction clean. Still to no avail.

The car has 70,000 miles on it. The cars transmission feels like its hesitating or slipping in low speed or when you first take off. Its dangerous turning into highways. Theirs recalls on this same make amd model and year but this car by vin says heir is no recalls. But its doing the same thing as the other recalled cars. Took it to ford dealer. Ted britt, in Fairfax, va. They said it was not under recall. They printed out a report and also said theirs no codes on car. They stated the transmission might have to be recalibrated, or I need a new transmission. Took it to another mechanic shop the car did not have check engine light on but did have codes stored. The mechanic said they can service transmission and check fluid levels. The dealer never said anything to me about when I should get it serviced or at how many miles. So I dont know who to believe. Looked online said that year has recalls and that the trans should be serviced at 30 to 50 thousand miles. So why wouldn't the dealer say that if that could affect the safty of this vehicle. I only use the dealer to get serviced. It just makes me not trust ford because of all the recalls they have they cant afford to fix more cars. Im also contacting better buisness bureau and documenting everything. I have two diagnostic reports 1 from deal 1 from a mechanic shop. Both saying different things. This should be under recall the mechanic from the shop told me to file a report he said he can fix transmission but does not want to touch it because what he seen it falls under manufactur defect.

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.

Jul 7, 2025

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.

Jul 4, 2025

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.

Transmission has had the lumpy shifting issue at lower speeds/gears since we bought it used from a local Ford Dealer. This appears to be a common problem if the reports in various internet forums is to be believed. PCM was upgraded, didn't help. Now the lumpiness has increased to bucking, making the car close to undriveable. In addition when accelerating hard there is a considerable delay in actual increased movement, almost caused a wreck at one point.

The transmission has gone out at 111,000 miles. We had taken it to the dealer for it dying without warning and losing power like it wasn’t getting fuel. They put a sensor in it and said it was fixed. When we left the dealership it seemed fine but in a few days the whistling came back. Ford wants $9800.00 to fix the same problem in other 2019 but my VIN is not on the recall list. The Edge was jerking and shifting hard. Going forward when it was in reverse which are the same problems the recall on other 2019 Ford Edges. I am asking that you review this matter as I have found hundreds of people not being compensated by Ford’s unsafe design for the transmission in the 2019 Ford Edge vehicles. When I spoke to the dealer and Fords customer service, they basically said it was my problem not theirs.

The 8F35 transmission has started shuddering and jerking around 30-45 MPH. It makes accelerating on roads and highways very dangerous as the vehicle is hard to control.

Known issue with powertrain / transmission in this year & model /make. Told to me by my service advisor

Apr 30, 2025

1. The transmission/torque converter causes the car to shift randomly causing almost constant jerking motion especially between 10-40 mph. This tends to lead to reduced power output as the car is constantly shifting gears or stuck is an incorrect gear. Yes, it is available for inspection. This issue is described in TSB 21-2389, which I have had preformed on the vehicle by ford but did not fix the issues. 2. Safety is impacted by the shifting gear reducing the available power output and inconsistent speeds. 3. I have had it in with the Ford Dealership and an independent mechanic. Both could reproduce it. Ford updated the software per TSB 21-2389 which is supposed to address the specific problem, but it did not fix it. The independent dealer reset the control unit, but that also did not fix the issue. 4. Only the ford dealership and independent mechanic. 5. There are no warning lamps or messages.

Ford Edge has a major issue with their drive system pertaining primary to the power train/Transmissions/torque converter. Looking at the complaints on google, you will see that Ford is reluctant to address these issues even when they should be covered under warranty or extended warranty. The issue becomes a safety problem when trying to make a left-hand turn in front of oncoming traffic The vehicle may or may not accelerate in a normal matter resulting in a near miss situation. The vehicle has a tendency to stall/shutter due to issues between the torque converter and the transmission. The problem is known to Ford and their dealerships, but they are refusing to take the corrective action required to address the problem. This should be a mandatory recall. We have had my wife's 2019 Ford Edge at the dealership 6 time for numerous attempts to resolve this issue. It will be going back again this week for trip number 7. In the meantime, I am forced to purchase her another vehicle so that she has something safe to drive. I have been a loyal Ford customer for the past several years. The last 3 vehicles I purchase included an F150, Fusion and this edge. Ford needs to step up and correct this issue before someone is in a tragic accident.

Transmission / Powertrain shudder in 25-45 mpa. There is service bulletein but that is not fixing the issue. Still issue is there after $1500 service. This is our second vehicle with same problem.

Apr 23, 2025

I own a 2019 Ford Edge SEL with 80,000 miles on it. A couple of months ago I started noticing a jerking, bucking while driving between 25 to 40 miles per hour. It acted like it was trying shift gears but was having issues getting into the next gear. I had it checked at my local repair shop that has worked on this vehicle in the past. At that time, they told me to continue to drive it and monitor the shifting problems. I did and yesterday I took it back and that time they diagnosed as a bad torque convertor and that I needed a new/rebuilt transmission at approximately $8,800.00. After doing some research online, Ford owner's websites, I was surprised to see how many people the same problem and how little Ford have was helping. This is NOT an owner's problem, this is a Ford problem and should be corrected by Ford. It's poor quality and could lead to accidents and perhaps injuries. I would like you to require Ford to stand behind their products and repair/reimburse owners for any and all problems with this model. Thank you

Jerks when accelerating. Does not accelerate properly when accelerating from a stopped position. Reactions times slower due to the torque converter. FORD has diagnosed it as the torque converter. There are forums online stating this exact problem with other 2019 Edges.

Apr 21, 2025

The contact’s wife owns a 2019 Ford Edge. The contact stated that on several occasions while driving at various speeds, the vehicle jerked when the accelerator pedal was depressed, and the vehicle lost power. The check engine, power train, and several other unknown warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, where it was diagnosed and determined that the wastegate was stuck closed in the turbocharger valve, and the turbocharger valve needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired but the failure reoccurred four months later while driving at an undisclosed speed. The contact stated that during the failure, the vehicle lost power and failed to accelerate as intended. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic again where it was diagnosed that the wastegate was stuck closed again, and turbo turbocharger valve needed to be replaced. On another occasion, the contact stated that while driving 30 MPH, his wife observed white smoke coming from the exhaust pipe. The contact stated that his wife then observed that the EGR and check engine warning lights were illuminated. The message "Engine Overheating” was displayed. The vehicle was steered off the highway and restarted three times after cooling down and was taken back to the same independent mechanic, where it was diagnosed that the EGR valve had failed, the coolant level was low, and there was coolant passing through the exhaust EGR coolant system and had leaked into the exhaust system. The contact was informed that the EGR system needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 33,654.

During normal driving conditions in stop and go traffic the engine coolant over-temperature warning message displayed on the dashboard. Also, for a couple days prior to this incident, the vehicle exhibited hesitation when attempting to accelerate, and the engine was very close to stalling multiple times. There wear no other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure. The vehicle was towed to a local Ford dealership, where it was confirmed the issue was related to existing TSB 20-2234 (2.0L EcoBoost - Illuminated MIL With Various DTCs And/Or Low Coolant Level, White Smoke From Tailpipe And/Or External Coolant Leak), and repairs were completed.

While driving on the highway my Ford Edge starting shuttering/sputtering when I gave the vehicle gas. I went to the car dealer and they recommended changing the spark plugs. The car still sputtered and started getting worst when ever I gave the vehicle gas. Even at 30 - 40 mph the car sputtered. I took the car to the dealership today, April 9, 2025 and was told there was an issue with the "Torque Converter". I googled this and found a Ford Forum and found other people having the same issue. Some and issue with the cost of repair, some could not find the part, some with concerns of why no recall, and some with concerns getting issue fixed and it breaking down again. I ask that you investigate this issue, request a recall, and a secondary insurance if it breaks again after getting repaired.

Last year I paid $2000 to fix an Exhaust Gas Recirculation Cooler. There is a current TSB on this issue. The car overheated. They claim it’s not covered under the drive train warranty. Now a year later, my torque converter is bad and they are quoting me $4000 to fix. This is a 2019 model year with 61,000 miles. Im certain that one problem led to the other. They refused to fix the EGR cooler under warranty because i was one month over the 5 years, even though we purchased it in July - their warranty starts when the car hits the dealers lot.

Torque converter issues causing stuttering and possible further transmission issues

Mar 31, 2025

There is a known issue with the transmission of this vehicle. Ford issued a Technical Service Bulletin to try and resolve the issue by reprogramming the solenoids, but the issue persists & leads to catastrophic drive train failure if left unrepaired. I just purchased this vehicle with only 72k miles & now the dealer is quoting me almost $10k more in repairs. There should be a recall issued to fix the known transmission issue at no cost to the owner, whether under warranty or not. This is a serious and well known issue that affects the majority of these vehicles.

While driving approximately 30mph the vehicle started to shutter, and a wrench mechanical light appeared on the dash, also stating that a shifting error had occurred. I immediately pulled over and the vehicle automatically shifted gears into the park position, I shut it off then restarted it and drove it to my local dealer for a diagnostic check. Was told that the transmission needed to be replaced. I had taken it in for service approximately two months prior and complained of slippage, they applied some sort of fluid I presume to stop it, and we encountered no further problems until about three months later when the wrench symbol showed up and I took it in for diagnosis with them now stating that I needed an $9000 transmission. They saw this issue the first time when I complained about the transmission slippage, they should’ve been obligated to at least notify me of the possible outcome of a new transmission. They hid the known defects which I believe is against the law or should be, so they need to be held responsible for a well known defect in this make and model vehicle, before lives are lost or injuries are occurred if there hasn’t already! If there are any class action lawsuits open please leave information in reply section. This has to be addressed immediately before lives are ruined due to their negligence concerning these issues which are very reoccurring throughout the country where these vehicles are being sold.

2019 Ford Edge Titanium AWD, 91k miles. 8F35 Transmission is severely jerking and shuddering at lower speeds around 20-35 MPH. This causes erratic driving and lack of control when accelerating up to speed, especially on the highway. Has caused near-accidents for my family and I due to the car's erratic behavior. Ford has issued TSB 21-2389 to reprogram the PCM, but that does not resolve the issue. Ford dealership has told me the rear differential and torque converter need to be replaced to the cost of $9200.

We purchased this vehicle in the summer of 2019. We’ve had it barely six years. For one year, it was barely driven as my husband was deployed. It doesn’t even have 100k miles. We were informed by ford that the transmission needs to be completely replaced as the torque converter is slipping. It’s absolutely insane that a $60k car can’t be depended on to last 100k miles. After doing some research, it seems like this is a very well known problem within the ford edge community. And the fact that ford has no responsibility to fix this is an abomination. Look on Facebook and there’s countless stories of the same issue. This is absolutely not acceptable. We had zero intention of purchasing another vehicle. We had planned on driving this ford edge for many more years as that’s what’s to be expected with a car that’s really only been driven for 5 years. We are out of thousands of dollars. Will never purchase a ford vehicle again. Which sorta breaks my heart because within my family, we’ve only ever purchased ford. Never even considered a different model. Our next purchase was going to be a ford truck. Very disappointed that ford seems well aware of complaints and deficiencies and aren’t doing anything to rectify it.

The transaxle, torque converter, and/or PCM/TCM have suddenly, and rapidly started wearing and degrading to the point of requiring replacement. Available for inspection upon request. The vehicle had troubles shifting, finding/selecting gears, and as a result, would lurch or come to abrupt stops at low speeds, have difficulty accelerating which made it difficult to enter or exit intersections where there is great risk of collision. I had to very carefully choose and wait for the opportune time to enter/exit roadways where no other vehicles were coming in case the vehicle would not accelerate for 3-5 seconds when using the accelerator pedal. Problem has been reproduced since first occurrence and a dealer has inspected the components indicating that replacement is needed. There were no indications, warnings, alerts, or messages to suggest that an issue was occurring until AFTER the first several instances of failure to shift. I tried to use a scanner to find OBD2 codes, but there were none. A generic alert via the driver display was given, but it took 500+ miles for a more specific warning and OBD2 codes to be generated. From my understanding, there have been hundreds of drivers that have experienced the same issues with the same/similar models of Ford Edge vehicles that use the same transmission. NOTE: I had experienced shifting difficulty/roughness, RPM variation, slow gear changes, delayed acceleration at ~60k miles. I had brought the vehicle in for service where transmission fluid was flushed. Approximately another 55k miles later is when my vehicle experienced the severe failures described above. This is similar to many other vehicle owners experiencing these issues at ~60k miles.

Since purchasing the vehicle in April 2020 with 19,195 mile on it, the transmission would always hunt to shift gears around 40 to 43 mph. When I asked the dealers about it they said it was at a shift point and with the eight speed transmission that was normal. Going faster of accelerating or going slower was always pretty good. Around the first of November 2024 it changed to all shifting below 40 mph and progressively got so bad that in traffic it was totally unpredictable, At times in heavy traffic we were nearly rear ended because of the up and down shifting. At that time there was about 91,000 miles on it. I went to my service garage and they check all the codes and did not find anything. They thought it was a torque converter issue and recommended having a transmission shop check it out. I took it to a local shop that we have used for over 35 years and they confirmed the converter was the issue and driving in town was ok but don't go on long trips away from home. The transmission shop ordered a new torque converter and did further research with suppliers and other shops. They received input that if the torque converter fails, shortly after the planetary gear will also fail. Since the transmission would be out, it was recommended to inspect the gears. It was discovered that two were very loose and one was extremely loose sideways and up and down. They said it was on it's last leg and they showed me the gear and what was wrong. With that, they replaced both the converter and planetary gear. If the planetary gear would have failed it is hard to tell what would have happened, especially on a highway or in heavy traffic. I feel this is a major safety concern of items that should have a life expectancy of 200,000 miles or more, not 91,000. I am not the only one with this problem either. There are many others dealing with the same issues and the repairs can cost more the the value of the car, not to mention the possible cause of an accident.

I OWN A 2019 FORD EDGE SEL WITH 56,675 MILES AND MY TRANSMISSION WAS DIAGNOSED AT A FORD DEALERSHIP TO BE REPLACED. NO ENGINE LIGHTS CAME ON. THIS PROBLEM WOULD OCCUR BETWEEN 25 - 40 MPH AND WAS CHUGGING AND NOT BEING ABLE TO SHIFT INTO THE NEXT GEAR.

Dec 31, 2024

Vehicle was not shifting smoothly when driving it. This had been an ongoing issue but was getting worse, especially in low gears. No lights or identification. I brought it to the dealership and they identified that I needed to have the torque convertor replaced. They did a transmission overhaul. Identified there were still issues occurring and shifting was not smooth. Installed new pistons, pump, shaft. Overhauled the automatic transmission assembly. There were identified Ford TSBs for these issues. They identified debris in transmission fluid, removed transmission, flushed and rebuilt. My vehicle was in service for two months, so not sure exactly when it was resolved but I do know when it was dropped off. The service department kept me updated and I had a loaner, but this occurred over the holiday season.

In May of 2024 Transmission downshifting hard at 35 mph as slowing down car milage was 67529. Took to dealer who performed diagnostics and verified a transmission problem; inspected fluid which was okay, performed TSB and reprogrammed PCM and reinstalled transmission strategy in module. Repairs done under warranty. Perform adaptive learn and noted it will feel different while driving for next few hundred miles. Six months later in November of 2024 transmission would hesitate, shudder, jerk between 20-40 mph and car mileage was 75937. Took back to dealer who did diagnostics, monitor PIDS and found the torque converter has failed causing shutter and also found the vehicle is flair shifting between gears. Checked fluid level and proper level is in transmission but fluid has meta debris. Dealer Service Representative advised it needs new transmission and would cost $800 or more to fix problem. Warranty expired at 72000 miles. We bought car new and had dealer perform all maintenance procedures and oil changes, etc. as noted in required maintenance schedule. We asked to speak with Service Manager who we saw in her office and we were told we'd need to make an appointment in late December or early January. We got no help from dealer or manufacturer, despite several technical service bulleting available at NHTSA showing transmission problems with 2019 Ford Edge. We finally got rid of the car but would say Ford Edges have definite transmission issues that may indicate a need for recall.

Nov 20, 2024

In 2019 Ford removed the Low gear option from the shifter dial. Customers were forced to manually shift using paddle shifters to access engine braking in steep grade situations. Current Ford TCM programming for 2019 and newer vehicles skips from first to third gear at 4mph, 900-1000 rpm, providing no engine braking ability in speeds below 25 mph when using paddle shifters. My vehicle manual states “SelectShift does not automatically upshift, even if the engine is approaching the RPM limit, unless the accelerator pedal is at full travel.” Despite contradictions to how the Ford owners manual says my car should operate, the dealership says it’s working as intended. I believe this violates NHTSA standard Section S3.1.2 of that states that “[in] vehicles having more than one forward transmission gear ratio, one forward drive position shall provide a greater degree of engine braking than the highest speed transmission ratio at vehicle speeds below 25 miles per hour." Third gear does not provide more engine braking ability than Drive in speeds below 25mph. This is a safety issue which could lead to potential brake failure in long, steep grade situations and provides no engine braking ability.

Transmission problem. Vehicle shudders while accelerating and cruising at highway speeds. No codes found, torque converter is shuddering between 1-300 rpms while accelerating and while cruising at highway speeds. This could cause catastrophic failure at any second. Reproduced and Confirmed by Ford Dealership. Has not been inspected by anyone else. No warning lamps or messages. 2 weeks prior there was a slight vibration when it shifted while accelerating that happened 3 times. Drove 400+ miles up to Syracuse NY fine. Drove back home and experienced massive shuddering when I was almost home. Dropped off car at local dealership that was thankfully within a few miles.

The Transmision hesitates and jerks while shifting at speeds from 25-40 mph. This is unsafe while pulling into traffic, and causes unnecessary wear on the drivetrain!.

Purge flow valve had replaced by Ford Service on 10/5/24. Car wouldn’t start after getting gas. Check engine light came on. Code was Po496. Currently, upon acceleration @15-20 mph car starts jerking, buck, slipping, very hard to go hill. Took to Ford Service for diagnostic on 10/15/24. Told torque converter shuddering on PIDS. Recommend replacing torque converter @ a cost of $5200. Per, reviewing many complaints on this same model & yr many haven’t had success with just replacing torque converter. It doesn’t fix issue. Transmission had to be replaced. Ford does have a TSB 21-2389 that supersedes TSB 21-2081 out. It states cars with 8F35 transmission may have this issue due to the software in the power train control module. Instructing, to reprogram the PCM & the transmission solenoid strategy. After reviewing all complaints on this issue, this solution does not correct problem. I was also told by Ford service; this wouldn’t fix the issue. From what I’ve read the way this transmission is engineered will likely cause it to always do this. Because Ford Frankensteined the 6F35 (previous models) by inserting 2 gears in between existing ones, the transition from 1-2-3 will never be as fluid as 3-4, 4-5, and so on. Basically what is 1-3 on mine (8F35) is 1-2 on a 6F35. This quite frankly is a terrible transmission & only a matter of time before transmission goes completely out & someone gets killed. This year & model has numerous issues not listed here. Seems like as soon as warranty expires problems start popping up. Some issues pop up before warranty expires. This is getting dangerous & very expensive!

Transmission needs repaired/replaced and car doesn't even have 100,000 miles. It appears to be a known issue and Ford is doing nothing about it

Nov 5, 2024

We purchased our 2019 Ford Edge Titanium in March of 2022 with 71K miles on it from a local used car dealer. The vehicle was jerky in the lower speeds (up to 40 mph) - best described as if the transmission did not know what gears to go in, so it would jump back and forth, causing uncontrollable hesitations and accelerations - jumping back and forth between gears. The dealer said this was normal for the newer 10 speed transmissions and that it had to learn each new driver. At that time, there weren't reported issues online about these transmissions, so I accepted the dealers explanation as normal. The jerking and jumping between gears got worse and at 91K miles, the vehicle even stopped going in reverse, which made it even more dangerous. We replaced the transmission with another used transmission (believe 18K miles on it) and that one was even worse with the jerkiness and jumping back and forth, so we replaced it with another used transmission (believe 45K miles on it) which is now having the exact same issues. We have 95K miles on our vehicle and are now needing a 3rd transmission replacement. No safety warning lights came up. While it's a big inconvenience with the vehicle being constantly in repair, the bigger issue is the incredible safety issue with the hesitations and jumping in and out of gears, reverse not working, etc. that can put multiple people's lives in danger when the vehicle is not reacting and performing without hesitation. We have had close calls on crashes due to the transmission hesitations and jerky gear shifting and it distracts us from paying attention to the road, other vehicles, and pedestrians. We encourage anyone from NHTSA to contact us to talk through it, inspect the vehicle, and/or talk with our repair shop about these now common faulty transmissions. If bodily injury occurs due to known faulty transmissions, I would file a significant product liability lawsuit against Ford and the transmission manufacturer for their negligence.

Our 2019 Ford Edge SEL has been experiencing a problem related to the driveline where during shifts, the car can buck or jerk and causes harsh shifts. In addition, during a long car ride with children in the car while going steady state down the road, the engine started to rev and the car began to slow down as if the transmission was slipping. The car lost significant power and was forced to pull the car over and stop. I shut the car off and waited about a minute. We then turned the car back on and it seem to work. The dealer diagnoses was the need for a new torque convertor for a repair cost of $4000. This should not be a normal replacement on a car with under 70,000 miles. Looking at Ford Forums, this is EXTREMELY common. This needs to be a recall. This is dangerous and can cause an accident.

The transmission shifts very harshly from stop and go. It shakes, slips, and shutters while driving. From around 55-60 mph the car shakes and the rpm jumps around like it’s trying shift gears, occasionally the car will jump as if you’re driving on the white bumpy line. When you let off the accelerator the car shakes. When slowing down to stop, the car downshifts very harshly and makes it feel as if you’re slamming on the brakes. I’m not sure what kind of risk this could cause for me or others. Multiple dealers have said that it must be the transmission needing to be replaced. It has not been inspected by a dealer, that’s just what they’ve told me. The only warning light that has appeared a few times is a “drive not available” warning light when shifting into drive, it immediately shifts the car into park when the warning appears. The car started being jumpy and jerky shortly after being purchased in 2022 with 50,000 miles. Reverse also seems to engage harshly causing the car to make a loud pop noise and a slight jolt occurs. The vehicle now has around 78,000 miles.

My cars rpm's started randomly jumping which would coincide with a slight jerking feeling when the car shifted gears. First I was told it was my spark plugs and then the coil packs. When both of those were changed and the problem persisted they ran multiple diagnostic tests and came up with nothing. Then my car started to shudder when I put gas in it and then the radio screen and door locks would intermittently stop working and again they found no error codes. Then my pre-collision warning system started going off when there are no cars even remotely near. The same for my blind spot indicators. They just go off for no reason. Now after months of issues and zero error codes, they say it's the transmission failing and it will cost me $6,000 to fix. That's assuming that is actually the problem.

At this point the vehicle is undrivable and won’t respond to gas pedal inputs. Appears to be a known engine issue; however, dealer says it’s an exhaust gas recirculation pump and parts needing replacement, with approximate cost of $2000.

My 2019 Ford Edge SEL is having transmission issues that ford knows about, as many customers have the same issue starting between 37K to 60K miles. The transmission is jerky between 1st to 2nd, 2nd to 3rd, and 3rd to 4th gear. It starts from 15mph to 40 mph. No check engine light comes on. Sometimes it doesn't want to shift into the next gear briefly and I don't drive the vehicle hard at all. Vehicle has been taken to Ford for them to say that it needs a software update and possibly a torque converter to be replaced. i have 54K miles on the vehicle and I purchased it used in August of 2022 with 41K miles on it because of the inventory shortage.

Sep 27, 2024

Vehicle began shuddering and losing power while driving. Issues are related to automatic transmission gear shifts. Gears seem to be slipping or not shifting correctly. Tachometer is revving without acceleration at times. Check engine and ford app errors indicate powertrain issue. When slowing down, car randomly acted as if the brake had been pushed hard. If I had not been on a road without other vehicles, a crash would have been likely. Car has been taken to local dealer, who had not yet diagnosed, but has already indicated this is a common issue with 2019 edges and will likely be an expensive fix.

Vehicle began shuddering when accelerating from approx. 20 mph to 50 mph several months ago. It was not always consistent at first, but steadily began worsening. Firestone was unable to diagnose. We though maybe dirty fuel system, but fuel injector cleaner made no difference. Took it to Ford dealer and diagnosed as failing torque converter. Upon further research determined that Ford had issued recalls for other models and years but not ours for this part, but I found numerous reports in discussion forums online of this same part failing in our year and model. Part is currently backordered with no ETA and fortunately we have 1 month and approx. 2000 mi remaining of powertrain warranty so it will be covered. However, Ford cannot provide ETA on the part and I have concerns of manufacturing quality for the replacement part we are awaiting as well as concerns for other drivers with the same vehicle. I called Ford customer service and they advised to submit a report to NHTSA and the only way for me to formally submit a complaint directly to Ford is by snail mail to a PO Box. So, I'm submitting this report in hopes an investigation will be opened about this issue and pressure will be applied to Ford to boost inventory of this critical part and begin a recall process.

I purchased a 2019 Ford Edge (ecoboost) with 49,000 miles. At approximately 55,000 miles the transmission began shifting erratically, cause the vehicle to lurch and then arbitrarily stop. I had the transmission fluid drained and replaced and the transmission performance appeared to improve for approximately 6,000 miles. The erratic shifting, lurching and stopping returned. This behavior placed myself and my passengers at extreme risk as the arbitrary changes in speed (and stopping) would occur without notice, while driving in traffic. I brought the car to my mechanic (who is a recently retired Ford service manager). He was able to confirm the problem and directed me to a transmission mechanic with expertise in Ford transmissions. He inspected the transmission and confirmed several defective components in the transmission. He further indicated that after-market upgraded parts have been produced as a result of the prevalence of this issue. The mechanic indicated that the transmission must be rebuilt. No warning lamps were present until the vehicle went into a constant state of erratic shifting, lurching and stopping.

Bought the vehicle used in July 2022 with around 80,000 miles. After 2 weeks of owning, vehicle started to shift weird and didn't seem to be driving normal. No warning or codes popped up but called dealership to see if they knew what was going on. Took it in and had them hook it up to their systems and still had no codes. Then after test driving, said that it was the torque converter. They replaced it and the vehicle seemed to drive fine until about 11 or 10 months later. The vehicle started to have similar issues but worse. Misfiring when driving in traffic, transmission seemed like it was skipping gears, was worried it was going to shut off and I was going to loose power steering when on the interstate one time. Called the dealership and was told they couldn't do anything unless I paid at this point. Took it to a small transmission shop and had them check it out. The flushed the whole transmission and said they fluid was terrible and their was metal scapes in the fluid as well. Told me it was best to get rid of it but I still owed too much money on it to do anything. Now a year later, I am back to the same issues. Transmission is causing problems, not shifting into gears properly, shifting very hard, jerking when shifting. Scared to drive it in traffic incase it breaks down or completely blows the transmission. I have found a Ford Forum with over 80 other individuals who are having the same issues and begging Ford to do something about this.

Sep 6, 2024

Failing torque converter and valve body at approx. 91,000 miles and just under 5 years old. When accelerating (at any speed), the vehicle chugs and struggles to speed up. No warning lights or check engine lights came on. Ford initially diagnosed the problem and wanted to replace JUST the torque converter and valve body. Upon bringing it to dedicated transmission shop it was confirmed the torque converter and valve body are failing. It is not yet confirmed if there is any other work needed as they are checking if Ford will even sell them parts to fix the issue. I was told this has become a known and common occurrence with this specific model of transmission, and there is not even a full remedy of the issue with repair, as they won't replace any other parts in the transmission when the torque converter and valve body are replaced - leading to repeat repairs of the same transmission.

The ford dealer states the problem is in the slip clutch converter. As I begin driving the vehicle it slips, perks, tac goes up and down, engages and is engages up and down constantly. It never throws a code on this and it is a danger for fear of it quitting in the middle of the hwy. The jerking, slipping, kicking out of and into gear constantly. With no code being thrown on it. It shows no recalls on our car but others it dies. Ford wants us to pay 3,400.00 dollars to fix it when it is a manufacturers problem. We don't have that kind of money. As I read the 296 complaints on the ford edge they are about the same problem and this issue needs to be addressed and paid for by ford. It affects the gas mileage also. It is available for jnspection.All maintenance has been done on vehicle when needed. It affects me, my passengers and other people around me because it can cause pile up and hurt lot of people. The problem has been reproduced at ford. No warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure and it first started about 8 months ago. Was reported to Ford for the problem and nothing was done about it. It was brought into the Ford Dealership and they confirmed it was the clutch slip converter is what it was. Never heard of such. It is getting worse and worse With the slipping and perking and things. What do we do. Ford needs to stand behind their product as I have been a Ford man all my life and now this. I am thinking long and hard about going to chevy.

I have a 2019 Ford Edge with about 68,000 miles on it that is having transmission issues. The dealer has said it needs a new torque converter. However, they cannot guarantee it will be covered by the warranty. I am [XXX], and cannot afford this if I end up having to pay for it!! After researching 2019 Ford Edge issues online, I see that there are MANY with the same issue, and that having it repaired does not fix the problem - it will happen again! If the transmission fails while I am driving it will be a huge safety risk for me and drivers around me. It is not shifting correctly, and causing me to not be able to speed up when necessary which puts me and others at risk. There are no warning or engine lights on at this time. This is a known problem and Ford should fix it!! INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

The transmission failed - completely out of the blue, unexpectedly without warning.The vehicle has been maintained, oil changes on schedule, all recommended service work up to date. No issues whatsoever prior to this incident. While driving on interstate highway at 75 mph (posted speed limit = 75 mph) in traffic across three lanes, vehicle began shifting gears indiscriminately while engine was revving and simultaneously the vehicle was losing power. Driver changed lanes, put on flashers, pulled over to shoulder of highway. After pulling over, the warning light came on and message said, "shift sys fault," followed by a reference to see manual. We researched the messages using smart phones and looked in manual. We determined the vehicle needed service. After 15-20 min, we restarted the vehicle and drove 23-25 miles to auto shop. We parked the vehicle at the shop. Yes, the vehicle is available for inspection. The independent service technician / owner investigated for 10 days consulting specialist, ran computer software updates for purpose of diagnosis, and determined the transmission needs replaced. He recommended taking the vehicle to the dealership to confirm. We scheduled an appointment at the local dealership, paid diagnostic fee, and received confirmation recommending new transmission. There were NO warning lamps, NO messages, NO indication of problems prior to failure. They first appeared on this drive. Our safety and the safety of others was at risk due to the high speed (our rate of speed and the rate of other vehicles around us at the time). In addition, the immediate loss of power without warning, the engine revving, gear shifting, loss of control etc. We were fortunate we were able to pull over safely, and to proceed at low speed with blinkers.

2019 Ford Edge Titatnium is experiencing shudder/buck/jerk while driving up to 35 mph as described in Technical Service Bulletin 21-2081. Dealership said it sounds like the same issue but for some reason my VIN is not part of the recall so they will not check without paying. Dealership asked me to contact Ford directly but they could not assist.I believe this is a safety risk as the shudder/jerking is intensifying and I'm afraid it could stall when driving in traffic resulting in bodily injury.No warning lamps or messages or other symptoms prior to start of issue.

Car buck and jerks, unexpected low speed and sometimes hi speed, never know what is going to happen when you hit the gas or brake. Ford wants to replace transmission. Car has 55,500 miles, this should be a known defect. Ford refuses to fix under any warranty, This is a very dangerous defect. I have seen many people complain with this same defect.

In May/2024- driving on Xway—“wrench” appeared as warning. I was in rural area & called Ford dealer 2 1/2 hrs away. They confirmed the Ford Pass warning was torque converter. I was told I could drive it home as long as I drive slower, ie: 60 mpg. Took it in to dealer, Trans tech confirmed torque converter @ fault. Replaced it, I drove the car off lot after 3 weeks in the shop. Still felt hesitancy. Took it back, Trans tech said it was the valve body. Replaced, but still hesitating. Tech said fluid may have “particles” in trans fluid. Flushed. Still not driving smoothly per service manager My 2019 Edge has been in Ford dealership since 5/6/24. It is now 7/29/24.

Unable to engage and maintain 1st gear on any grade. The design of the rotary shifter eliminated the 1st from the gear shifter leaving only paddle shifting and Sport mode. While in Sport mode with paddle shifters engaged, the car automatically shifts to 2nd gear at 4mph and around 900-1000 rpm (just above idle). When trying to downshift, the gear just flashes, making me unable to downshift to first gear. This forces the frequent engaging of brakes at steep grades, leading to brake overheating and potential brake failure. The design is a safety issue. First gear is an absolute necessity in certain situations and Ford has disabled my ability to use it.

Torque converter malfunction confirmed through transmission shop. When problem initially presented it would intermittenly lag when pressing the accelerator. That turned into a constant jerk/shudder during driving with it being severely pronounced during any kind of acceleration in any gear. The problem only got worse and did so quickly. On several occasions I experienced enough lag that I was almost hit due to the delay in the car moving. I then had to leave ample time to turn in the event the car didn't engage again. The problem was confirmed through an independent transmission shop and is currently up for repair and a Ford dealership. The symptoms were present for 8 months without the car ever throwing a code. It never indicated needing any service.

Transmission would often shutter and slip when first driving. Between 30-45 mph is when it was most noticeable, and later would do it at higher speeds. Caused very apparent hesitation when accelerating. Took it to the dealership, was told it was the torque converter. After digging around online it seems other owners are having issues at relatively low mileage, and often times more than once, or are told to completely replace the transmission.

Since I bought this vehicle in 2021 (used) it has been making a thud/clunk sound when turning the electronic transmission shifter from either reverse or parking to drive. I am afraid this electronic component is not working as it should and could potentially slip into other gears due to wear and tear. I have already flushed the transmission fluid thinking it could fix the issue but the dealership never reported it to be an issue. It obviously is but none of the Ford service departments from both Florida and Virginia have identified any issues. There are multiple Ford Edge owners that have been reporting this issue but it seems that Ford is trying to hide this as nothing has been done to fix it, nor a recall has been issued for my vehicle.

2019 ford edge sel, while accelerating the vehicle jerks, causing vehicle to slowly accelerate. According to multiple ford dealerships, multiple transmission shops, and ford motor company themselves, there was a manufacturing problem with the welds on the torque converter, which caused the torque converter to come apart and emit metal shavings into the fluid which ended up in the transmission causing it to jerk and hesitate. This I was told was only a problem with the 2019-2021 ford edge sel.

UNKNOWN My SUV started to shudder. I brought it to a mechanic, and he started that while preforming a transmission flush, a bunch of black gunk came out. He advised us that the transmission needed to be replaced or rebuilt. Ford needs to issue a recall on all 2019 Ford Edge’s. I’m worried it will blow up or cause an accident while I’m driving it.

Transmission Components Failing. Ford said Torque Converter and Valve Body Failing Car shuddering when accelerating and gear change Been reported by dealer No warning lights or signals given

Apr 16, 2024

In June of 2023 the car was sputtering in 2-3 gear. It went in to replace the torque converter. This was replaced and 10 months later the transmission goes out. I believe that the transmission when out due to the torque converter going out. At the time of the torque converter was replaced the car was still under warranty. I believe Ford is responsible as regularly scheduled maintenance was performed per there maintenance schedule, and at their dealership.

There is transmission issues with shift i between upshifting especially at lower speeds. looking this up seems to be an inherent problem with Ford 8 spd transmissions

Apr 10, 2024

At approximately 61,000 miles, car would hesitate and sputter while driving. No warning lights appeared on dashboard to indicate any issues. I took the car Ford for inspection, and was told by Ford that I needed a new torque convertor. I had the dealership complete repairs at a considerable cost.

Apr 10, 2024

I purchased this vehicle brand new. Within a year or so of purchasing we noticed some chugging with acceleration. Started out around the 20-30mph area. When we took to out local Ford dealer for routine maintenance we mentioned and they said they didn't find anything wrong. We chalked it up to our imagination. As time progressed it seemed to get worse. We mentioned it a couple more times and they said they didn't hear of an issue or find anything with the inspections. Come to October of 2023 when we were feeling it even at speeds on the interstate, we again took it it. The service man then told us that this is happening with multiple vehicles. They thought they had a fix, but within 2 weeks it returned on other people. He said hold on. We are in contact with Ford to see what to do. He will let me know. Then in March 2024, I became so frustrated I called them again asking if they heard anything from Ford. He said bring it in. I asked if that was something they were taking care of or I was responsible for. He responded, let's just get it in and see. I got a call the back after his 'inspection' to tell me the 'fix' didn't work but it was only $70 and we needed a new transmission that was $4500. I was so flustered at that point, I had him call my husband. (I was literally on my way to hospital with an emergency). This has been ongoing for years and I have been pushed off and now that it's not under warranty I am responsible for something that they don't even know is wrong. I have been recommended to read Ford blogs regarding this and this is a know problem with vehicle and a know tactic with dealerships to avoid responsibility. Frustrated!!!!

After 60k miles the vehicle shifts so hard it jerks when getting off the highway and also in town. The vehicle was purchased brand new. The vehicle was looked at by the dealership who was able to reproduce the issue. They advised that an update to the software was needed and the transmission would need replaced. Took for a 2nd opinion, at a transmission specialist, they were unable to reproduce the issue (after the software update) and advised that they did not feel comfortable replacing the transmission when they are unable to reproduce the issue. The issue mainly happens coming off highway to driving in city when going from 70mph to 30mph or going up hill from a stop. There are no warning lights that come on for this issue. This issue was observed by multiple family members. It appears as though this is not the first 2019 Ford Edge with the issue. There is a whole thread about this specific issue on [XXX] , where it was suggested to put in a complaint here.

Feb 19, 2024

The vehicle bucks and hesitates when shifting into and out of lower gears. Likely the torque converter. Merging into a busy highway and attempting to accelerate but not actually gaining speed leaves you as a sitting duck to be hit by another driver. Likewise, coming to a stop at a traffic light is jerky and sudden instead of gradual and smooth, opening the door to potentially being rear-ended

The car began sputtering and shaking between 20-30 miles and 60-80 miles December 2023 around 65.000 miles. After taking it to a local repair shop and trying a fuel system flush, changing spark plugs and ignition coil, it was determined that the transmission failed. I took it to the dealership where I purchased the vehicle and was once again told that the transmission needed to replaced. I was also told that I should stop driving it because it could fail while driving. I bought the car brand new, took it to the dealer for all the recommended maintenance, and the transmission needs to be replaced on a four year old car with only 66,000 miles on it. The only warning was the sputtering whild driving. I called Ford and was told there was nothing they could do about it. I was told that when I fixed it to hold on to my receipt in the event Ford issues a recall.

When decelerating on an interstate offramp we felt/heard a hard down shift. When we accelerated form a dead stop there was a scraping sound. Reaching a parking lot we attempted to shift to park at which time we received a short message, the shift knob vibrated and the vehicle would not shift to park. After a second attempt the vehicle did shift and I was able to turn it off. After calling the Dealer we attempted to return home (<5 miles), the transmission would not shift into park. After turning the vehicle off and back on it would and we were able to drive home with the scraping sound noted in low gear. Vehicle was towed to dealer where it was determined the transmission (8F35) had free metal in it (no source determination) indicating a catastrophic failure and replacement was required. I am concerned that if such a failure occurred at high-speed loss of control could result in a serious accident with property damage and physical injury from a collision. The vehicle had under 100,000 so the transmission should not have failed in this time period. Cost of repair was $8,584. It is my understanding this is a new model (8F35) transmission and research identifies other incidences of the transmission failing between 60,000 and 100,000 miles. When asked, Ford refuses to admit there is any design flaw in the transmission or offer corrective action.

I started experiencing problems with my 2019 ford edge jerking when changing gears and over a few weeks it got worse. The jerking starts no matter what gear and no matter the speed, once you begin to accelerate or slow down and pick up speed the car has a horrible series of jerks! I took the car to a body shop and they told me it was the transmission so I scheduled an appointment with a transmission specialist well they told me it wasn’t the transmission because no codes come up in the computer. Well I was still experiencing problems with my car driving so I went to the ford dealership and they had me to come back over two days because they were unsure of the problem since the computer didn’t give a code. Finally the service manager tells me it’s the torque converter and will cost $3225 but Ford does not have any torque converters available and they are in a nationwide background free with no eta on when they will manufacture anymore! Not even Autozone or auto part stores have this torque converter! So I have to either replace my whole transmission or buy a new car! My car is not old and still have a significant amount on my car loan so it makes trading it in super hard! This is unacceptable! So I’m supposed to ride around with my car not only not switching gears correctly but the more I drive it the more I risk the transmission locking up on me in the middle of the highway and Ford has no fix for a problem that they created! This is absolutely unacceptable!!!! There should be a recall on this part as there are several forums online of people with 2019 ford edge with the EXACT same problem and in the same bind of not being able to find the piece to fix their cars!! Please help!

The first, second and third gears are not fun

Dec 7, 2023

The torque converter failed at 62,050 miles. It is currently at the dealer and unable to be repaired to to the part being on national backorder. So it should be able to be inspected on demand as of the submission of this form until an unknown amount of time before the part is available. This failure put others on the road at risk as well as me and my family because of a sudden inability to accelerate. This caused other drivers to have to slam on their brakes to avoid hitting us because we weren't able to move out of the way in time. The Ford dealership has confirmed the torque converter is the failure. The vehicle has been inspected by a Ford technician but the torque converter unit has not been removed yet to my knowledge as we're awaiting a new part before being able to do so. There was no indication that a problem was going to occur or had occurred after the fact.

August 2023, my vehicle started making slight jerking motions when accelerating. I thought it shouldn’t be anything serious especially since the vehicle warning lights did not alarm. The Ford App health status for my vehicle report showed no issues. After a month of continuous weird jerking, I took the vehicle to a Ford dealership service department in walnut creek. In Sept 2023, the transmission was diagnosed to need replacement due to the torque converter. My vehicle mileage was 64,613 miles at the time of inspection by the dealership. This is way too soon for a transmission to need a repair without any warning. I believe the transmission is faulty especially since I have low wear and tear on this 2019 Ford Edge. It was purchased brand new and has not had any issue or system failure warning. The only reason I discovered this major problem is due to the odd jerking motions while driving.

Coolant has leaked into the engine and the exhaust system, presumably through head gasket or the TurboBoost assembly, as described in Ford TSB 22-2133 and TSB 22-2229 (June, 2022). Car, with less than 61,000 miles, is currently being examined by local Ford dealership. Vehicle experienced misfiring before an "engine overheated" warning while driving at freeway speed, which was followed by "coolant low" after the vehicle was pulled over. There were no prior other warnings or check engine lights. Coolant loss through exhaust system was extensive, as when vehicle front end was lifted for towing there was clear evidence of coolant stream leaking from the rear of the muffler under the car. The TSB references 2.0 engines with EcoBoost manufactured before April-May, 2019. This Ford Edge was manufactured 11/2018.

Jul 20, 2023 Crash

I bought a brand new 2019 Ford Edge with 11 miles. I have serviced it regularly with no issues. On 11/8/2022, I was sitting at a stop light and had the automatic start/stop mode engaged when another car rear ended me at high impact while they were on a cell phone. It did extensive rear damage. Including needing new exhaust system. When driving my vehicle to the Ford collision center, I noticed a jerking motion when going from stop or slow mode to start. They diagnosed it as a torque converter and stated I needed a new transmission. When filing with insurance it wasn’t covered because Ford stated they couldn’t confirm it was accident related. 1st… it coincided with accident and written documents support the filed complaint when brought straight from accident. Documentation also supports regular services and no issues as late as three weeks prior to accident. I inquired to rear impact causing gears to shift or slip while in the auto start/ stop mode? No one could answer my question. My car was at 70,000 miles at the time of the accident. I feel that this is something to look into and consider. This impact did in fact cause some issue with the transmission slipping and has something to do with the Siri start stop mode. No brand new regularly serviced vehicle should need a new transmission at 70,000 miles.

Car is scheduled to go in monday, june 12. After speaking with other owners of same model, they had same issue and claim ford does a reprogramming of the transmission but it doesn't seem to work that they returned to end up having transmission being replaced. I will follow up with documentation after my service.

I took my car in to have it serviced after I noticed it shuddering when accelerating. Mostly at a lower speed, 1st-3rd gear. I am now being told that I have to have the torque converter replaced which is going to cost me around $4700. This is from the Ford dealership by the way. My vehicle is right at 70k miles so something like this should not be broken already. After doing some research it appears that a lot of other 2019 Ford Edges are having the same issues due to bad transmission fluid at the time of production. I think that there should be a recall done so that people can get the transmission flushed and filled with new fluid, or get help paying for the converter to be replaced. And of course, my power train warranty ran out on it on 5/19/23.

Drove to a gas station, filled tank, car barely got out of the parking lot and on to a busy street before transmission failed. Took it to a repair shop who states it needs a new transmission. 2019 Edge with under 90,000. Bought used 3 months ago.

My 2019 Ford Edge feels like the automatic transmission is slipping upon acceleration from a stop. This happens thru 1st/2nd gear. Sometimes there is a bumping noise underneath. The gas mileage has decreased significantly. I have to be careful when pulling out into traffic as the stalling could cause an accident. I did research online and found a recall (NHTSA Recall ID: 18V390000, 17V42700) which includes 2017-2018 Ford Edges. The recall is for failed torque converter connections. My edge was built 9/2018. I have called the dealership to take the Edge in for service and the serviceman ironically, over the phone, immediately diagnosed the problem as the torque converter. A transmission should last 150,000 to 200,000 miles. I feel my Edge should have fallen into the above mentioned recall.

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.

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.

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.

While driving on the highway I experienced an apparent loss of power. It happened on an uphill grade and persisted for the duration of my trip – approximately 25 miles. The problem seemed to only occur on an uphill or flat road. The problem was not evident going downhill. Going home (approximately 32 miles) a few hours later the problem persisted. For about a week nothing happened, and then the problem reoccurred on the highway while coming back from dinner. Since then it has sporadically reappeared getting more frequent in the past few weeks. The symptoms are a complete loss of power, especially on an uphill grade. Lifting my foot off of the accelerator will temporarily bring power back, but trying to accelerate will cause the car to lose power again. If I continue to press the accelerator, the car will eventually come to a complete stop. Now the problem seems to happen at almost any speed and any road condition, uphill, flat, and occasionally downhill. During one occurrence I noticed something. When the problem happened I could see the brake light reflected on the rear window. So in addition to the loss of power, the brakes were activated without me applying the brakes. In discussions with the service manager at the dealership, we both believe the problem may be related in some way to the adaptive cruise control. It would make sense that if the adaptive cruise were activated not only would the brakes be applied, but the system would also shut down the engine. The car has been to the dealership four times for diagnosis. The last time they had it for more than a week. Neither they nor I can make the problem occur on demand.

Experienced harsh upshift and downshift causing vehicle to come to rigid stop and eventually loosing the ability to reverse. This is a serious safety concern to not only myself, but others on the road as my vehicle would not accelerate when coming to a complete stop at a stop sign or a red light, thus putting myself and others at risk of an accident. There were no warning lamps or messages that illuminated either on the dash or on the FordPass application to inform me of any issues that would require maintenance. My vehicle has been brought to a mechanic shop as I was told that the transmission needed to be replaced.

Found 2 pea sized, spots of something on garage floor over 2 months period of time. Car had seemed to OK with exception of occasional delay in shifting gears. Returning from long drive home, car started jerking and studdering upon acceleration as merging onto highway. This happened several times throughout drive home. Could have been easily rear ended on busy highway, we were very nervous. The system light went on only during the intense jerking, when car was turned off, system light never turned back on when restarted. Vehicle Health report, did not detect any issues. Brought into dealership, they had 5 weeks total, was told needed new transmission and front brakes. They said “luck of the draw” was the cause of the transmission problem. $4800.00 Upon pickup of Edge, studdering noted in brakes. Returned car, another $500, they said rear brakes now needed. This was all after after a $1900 electrical fix. Total spent for this 2019 Edge has been $8000.00 plus for repair. Not right.

2019 ford Edge SEL, FWD, Transmission problem. while driving on the high way, kicking and clunking and slipping, harsh upshift and downshift as well as harsh engagement. All the sudden loss of a power, and vehicle comes to stop. it is very very dangerous on a busy crowded highway which can cause serious accidents and purhaps death. I have contacted ford, and they refused to fix it . Ford is aware of it and they said they can not do anything about it till there will be a recall. My vehicle has only 400 miles passed the 60000 miles, but they refuse to honor the warranty repair on a defect design transmission that are having lots of issues with. I guess they are waitting for something bad to happen before they do anything.
