Vehicle had a studdering problem, spark plugs replaced, dealership said the spark plugs were masking an “underlying issue with the transmission shudder and torque converter and transmission was at the end of its life”. The unknown of the state of the transmission is the safety concern to me and others. The vehicle has been inspected by Ed Morse Ford. There was no indication other than shudder on acceleration, until the dealership looked at it. The shudder recently started end of August 2025, and has gradually gotten worse until taking to dealership (October 13 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.

My car started jerking when I drive and it would stall. I went to the dealership and at first they stated that it was probably nothing.

My car started jerking when I drive and it would stall. I went to the dealership and at first they stated that it was probably nothing. They told me I can leave it with them but it would take 2 weeks to be assessed. I was responsible for my own rental car during this "assessment period". After the assessment they determined it was the transmission and it had to be totally rebuilt and it would take another 2 week. Despite fortunately being under power train warranty, the dealership would only cover part of the rental for another 2 weeks.

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.

25V442000 · Back Over Prevention:software

Jun 27, 2025

Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2018-2022 Transit Connect, 2019-2020 MKZ, MKX, Edge, Continental, F-150, Nautilus, Fusion, 2019-2023 Ranger, Mustang, 2020-2021 EcoSport, Expedition, Navigator, 2020-2022 Escape, F-250 SD, Corsair, 2020-2023 Aviator, Transit, 2020-2024 Explorer, 2021-2024 Bronco Sport, and 2022-2024 Maverick vehicles. A software error may cause the rearview camera to display a blank image, or the image may remain on the display after the backing event has ended.

Consequence & remedy

Consequence: A rearview camera that displays a blank image can reduce the driver's view behind the vehicle. A rearview image that continues to be displayed after the vehicle is shifted out of reverse may distract the driver. Both of these situations can increase the risk of a crash.

Remedy: Dealers will update the rearview camera software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed September 4, 2025. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 25S72.
