Owner reports
Selected complaints filed with NHTSA by 2019 Ford Edge owners, lightly cleaned up (personal details are redacted by NHTSA).
The vehicle would not accelerate and caused my to bump into a wall. The vehicle is spluttering and the interior filled with chemical smoke caused by a coolant leak and it burning by the motor. the 1.5L vehicles are under an extended warrenty because of the EGR cooler malfunctioning. There was zero coolant in the car. The car illuminated malfunction indicator said powertrain malfunction. My car has 62000 miles on it and is no longer covered by warrenty
I cut my car off to fill up with gas, after filling up with gas I get back in my 2019 Ford Edge Titanium 2.0 Eco Boost and my car would not crank. It was turning over but would not crank. Finally, after my fourth time trying to start my 2019 Ford Edge it finally started and I had pump the gas pedal to keep it running. Then I noticed the engine light on, and my 2019 Ford Edge was running rough and sounded horrible. I took my 2019 Ford Edge to the Ford Dealership and was told that the Purge Solenoid Valve was bad, Giving my 2019 Ford Edge a default code a P0456 Fault Code (Evaporative Emission System Leak Detected, Severity 1 of 3, Service Should Be Scheduled and Repaired). My 2019 Ford Edge Titanium 2.0 only had 74,000 miles at the time this happened. The Ford Dealership told me that the Purge Solenoid Valve is/was not covered under the warranty. …
I am having trouble with my car jerking when accelerating between 30 and 50 mph. I originally began to have trouble with my 2019 Ford Edge on 5/13/22. On this date, the car began to overheat and I ended up having to incur the expense of not only having the car towed; but also of retrieving the car as the closest Ford dealership at the time was 5 hours away from my home. In this instance, the car was repaired under warranty and a code of TSB 20-2234. Shortly after the repair, I noticed that my car's wifi was no longer working; and, when I inquired I was told that there would be a $400 diagnostic fee. Furthermore, after about 6 months I noticed that the car would begin to jerk when accelerating. There were no console warnings, just an irregularity when driving. I took it back to the dealership on 8-28-2023 for the acceleration issue. I was given a rental car while they reviewed the issue. …
I took my vehicle into the dealership after identifying that when putting fuel in, the vehicle was prone to stalling after getting fuel (typically when fueling from E). I brought the vehicle to the dealership extremely low on fuel, at which point they were able to recreate the issue and were able to identify an error code. The fact that I had brought the vehicle in at least 8 other times and the vehicle had not shown any lights or any error codes is extremely concerning. They had to replace the purge valve. The vehicle is clearly indicating that this is a worsening condition and it becomes more frequent. The vehicle is stalling more frequently. Why wouldn't the vehicle begin to show error codes and lights when the item STARTS to go bad, rather than in very specific situations and only after an extended period of time? …
Safety Complaint - 2019 Ford Edge Transmission and Engine Shutdown Issues To Whom It May Concern, I am submitting this complaint to report ongoing safety-related defects with my 2019 Ford Edge, which I purchased new. At 30,000 miles, the auto on/off stopped working and was not fixed. After approximately 50,000 miles, the vehicle began shutting off after refueling. At 68,000 miles, the transmission started shuddering during acceleration. There was no warning light, I just noticed that something was wrong. This behavior is extremely concerning, as it creates a risk of sudden loss of power while driving and could result in an accident. Ford is aware of these issues but has not issued a recall. I paid to have the torque converter replaced; however, the same transmission problem has returned. Ford has declined to provide further assistance. …
I advised the dealership that all of the warning lights came on after backing out and putting my car in drive. The vehicle completely stalled out. The engine light was on. The vehicle had been at the dealership at least two other occasions (with no indication from the vehicle that there was an issue, no lights, no codes, no messages) and drove "like other vehicles of the same year, make and model". On this instance, the vehicle fully stalled and all of the lights were on, upon arrival at the dealership they located a code which indicated there was a short and they needed to replace the low side fuel pressure sensor. Luckily this occurred in a parking lot, rather than on a main road. …
I took my vehicle to the dealership because it would stall out while idling and the warning lights would come on. After restarting the vehicle, it would drive fine. It would stall out in random places, typically at a low speed. Upon arrival at the dealership, they looked for codes and lights (there were none) and attempted to recreate the issue (they were unable to). They checked the stored data and no information was present. The stalling is a safety concern since there is no record of what is causing it, it cannot be recreated, and the vehicle is not providing any information to indicate there is an issue until after it stalls (which is just the dash lights coming on). This is at least the 4th time the vehicle has been in for a similar issue, and the vehicle has no record of what is occurring. There are no error messages showing in the Ford app either.
Previously had reported an issue with my vehicle feeling as though it would stall out, especially upon first driving or low speeds. Had visited the dealership multiple times, however, the vehicle did not have any lights or error codes. Eventually, all lights came on to identify there was an issue with the low fuel pressure sensor and that was resolved 9/2021. Visited the dealership again 10/2021 as the vehicle was continuing to feel like it was going to stall out. In fact, the vehicle would go into auto off (while idling) and once it turned back on and began driving would immediately stall out. The dealership was unable to replicate this, the vehicle was not turning on lights or giving a specific error code. The dealership verified everything was working properly. The vehicle continuing to stall without it alerting of any type of issue is concerning.
I was driving to work on a busy street, started accelerating and the car completely shut down on me. I had to come to a complete stop on the main road during morning rush hour. Was close enough to idle into a parking lot. All my dashboard lights started flashing with an "Engine Coolant Over Temperature" alert. No throttle response. Had to have the vehicle towed to the Ford dealership where they determine that the coolant was leaking into the engine. Replaced the EGR cooler ($2300). Drove off the lot and the vehicle was shuttering upon acceleration. A( A known issue with the Ford 2.0 ecoboost engines but yet there is no recall) after diagnosing, Ford came back and said I need to replace the torque convertor ($3100). This is a 2019 vehicle with 84,277 miles on it. These issues SHOULD NOT be happening. Ford has done nothing but issue TSB's on them.
I reported to the dealership that when my vehicle was cold, it felt odd shifting. The RPMs would go up, but it felt like there was no power to the vehicle. At the same time, I advised that when the car was idling first thing in the day it felt like it would stall out. There were no lights on in the vehicle or codes for the dealership to read. After testing, the dealership advised the vehicle was operating comparable to the same year, make and model and there was no issue. Eventually, the vehicle would require a replacement of the fuel sensor and the purge valve, however, at this time there were no issues identified and the vehicle wasn't indicating there were any. This was dangerous for me, other drivers, pedestrians, and other vehicles. If my vehicle were to stall out in a situation where it was not expected, there could be an accident.
