Car stutters and hesitates when accelerating. Almost got in accident when trying to merge onto interstate. Two different repair shops say there is an issue with the Torque converter. They suggest a complete transmission rebuild or replacement.

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 Shif…

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.

My 2019 Ford Edge has 64,500 miles on it and the transmission needs replacing. Ford says that it will cost me $9K, but if I come up with $4500, they might help with the rest. I bought this vehicle just over a year ago and took it into a dealership with under 60K miles with the initial complaints. After a year of them looking at the computer system and making adjustments to that, they told me it needed a throttle body. I had a friend take it to another Ford dealership and they ran a diagnostic study on it right away - the transmission fluid has metal in it, it needs to be replaced. After telling the first dealership what we found, they said that it isn't covered under any warranty because when they finally found out what was wrong, it was over the 60K miles. Right now, I still have 5 years left on my loan and it sits in my driveway - UNABLE to drive it. And I don't have $4500! I do see that the transmissions have caused issues in these models, can I please get some help with getting mine fixed...? Again, I don't have the money to dish out to fix this myself and I will be making monthly payments on it for the next 5 years as it sits in my driveway!! I did get a hold of one lawyers office and they said that there might be a civil suit (?) brought up again Ford. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

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
Consequence: Missing or loose bolts on the start stop accumulator endcap could result in a transmission fluid leak and may progress to a loss of transmission function. A transmission fluid leak in the presence of an ignition source may increase the risk of fire.
Remedy: Ford will notify owners, and dealers will replace the start/stop accumulator, free of charge. The recall began September 23, 2020. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 20S49.
