I was driving down the road when out of nowhere my sunroof started raining glass in the inside of my car!! There was no Crack or stone that hit it nothing!! There needs to be a recall on this had I known this was an issue I never would have bought a vehicle with a sunroof gad I known!! The Ford dealership said they hadn't heard about anything like this happening but where I was suppose to have it fixed they had another ford 2019 edge same thing happend! I now have to pay 500 dollars for something that's not my fault! I did research and there have been issues with the sunroof randomly exploding and shattering! Please do better ford! There so quick to put a recall on something that isn't safety related but an exploding sunroof isn't an issue?!? Not happy!!

This incident is related to the rear view camera and the sync/radio interface in my vehicle. The recent recall for ford explorers in relation to the rear cameras are also present in the ford edge. In addition to these issues, when I am driving my rear view camera will turn on while driving. This has occurred on the freeway and has impacted how my car reacts to collision assists, lane keeping/departure functions. I have taken my car to ford and they have neglected the issue and said there is nothing they can do. I have left voicemails to get my car looked at again and reported to ford but seeing the recall headlines today about ford suvs I wanted to report that this is also happening yo ford edges and has caused issues for me. I believe this to be a glitch in the sync software. This has been an ongoing issue but has most recently occurred to me yesterday. I have video of this behavior as well but included a photo - you can see the car is in drive and the rear view camera is active.

I was leaving for work and I got to the end of my road and realized I forgot my wallet at home. I turned around and came back to my house. I parked in my driveway where there is a wooden gate. I parked my car, turned it off. Got out of the car and it was rolling forward toward me and my gate. Luckily the gate stopped it from rolling and I jumped into it and put the emergency brake on first then I notice the knob was in P(Park). I was not injured but the front of my passenger bumper which hit my gate got scuffed up. They say at ford there is mp recall bit when I googled my scenerio it has happened to several other people and now ford has issued a recall.

Our 2019 Ford Edge started to have repeating issue with the Sync touch screen. The screen would turn blue and nothing can be done to reset it in the car. One time a when the screen went blue, I pulled over and turned the car for at least 30 minutes. And it still had an issue when I restarted the car. I went as far as disconnecting the battery in order to get the Sync system to reset. Ford needs to come up with a system update to fix this reoccurring problem.

Transmission engagement concerns, harsh upshifting. The car bucks when going through the gears. Dealership cannot reproduce the problem. Delays in acceleration while pulling out onto busy roads are a safety concern. No one else has inspected the problem. There are no warning lights.

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.

Consequence & remedy
