2019 Ford Edge

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.

The contact owns a 2019 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle downshifted with the transmission speed sensor warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the transmission failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where the same diagnostic was provided the transmission failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 114,000.

Engine: Severe surging at low power settings, especially during engine warm-up. This surging is not related to air conditioner compressor cycling on/off, or turbo lag. Body: Rear hatch "kick to open" feature often activates suddenly without warning and without a deliberate kick motion by operator. This feature cannot be disabled; only the actuator can be disabled using instrument panel menus. This creates a condition where any inadvertent "open" command using any device will unlatch, but not open, the hatch. This can lead to loss of internal security and/or driving with an unlatched hatch. Thank You

The EGR Cooler (K2GZ-9F464-A) on my 2019 Ford Edge Titanum EcoBoost 2L cracked acutely while driving my children to school. No warning lights came on at any point. Once the car was in park, I noticed large amounts of smoke pouring out of the exhaust pipes. I had my children in the car strapped into car seats. Should the car have caught fire my children's lives would have been in jeopardy. Our lives would have also been at risk for injury should my car have completely failed while driving. This part failure has been confirmed by a repair shop. July 09, 2020, there was a TSB by Ford issued for: 2.0L EcoBoost - Illuminated MIL With Various DTCs And/Or Low Coolant Level, White Smoke from Tailpipe And/Or External Coolant Leak. However, this known failure with TSB information was not dispelled to me (the public) through Ford Pass App or by Ford Corporate or the Ford Dealer, where I purchased the car in 2020. A simple PCM software update would have prevented this issue for occurring. There were no warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure. The issue occurred on 10/02/2024.

Started experiencing transmission problems including harsh shifting, shuttering, lurching, hesitating, or slowing down when shifting gears at about 80,000 miles. Put myself and child in danger on the freeway. Took the vehicle into the ford dealership repair shop and they are reporting that I need a new transmission. I bought an extended warranty and their rep will be coming out to inspect this week. No warning lights came on.
