vehicle losing acceleration when a small incline is needed after a stop. Engine will rev up but it will not move. Putting vehicle in to park and turning it off and back on again does a small reset and starts moving again. Over the last few months this event has happened multiple times until roughly around 2 months ago it will not move at all. check engine light is on and code saying "Transmission not in park" when you put it in Reverse and neutral and Drive and Sport. called dealership and they don't pick up the vehicle and want to charge me 180.00 just to Diagnose it.

recurring misfire codes, service engine light comes on and goes off. have been told there is investgation for intrusive coolant defect.

I am writing to express my concern with how Ford is handling Safety Recall 25S89. I have had numerous incidents where the camera has failed when backing up and have photos to document these instances. I brought my 2017 Edge to the dealership today and was told that it did not need replacement. So, it's "safe" to have the camera display a blank screen some of the time? I would think that the rationale behind a backup camera is that it is safe 100% of the time or it should be replaced. If a part fails only some of the time, is it considered a safe part per the NHTSA? I would really appreciate hearing back from someone at NHTSA on this issue and perhaps there needs to be review with Ford on how this is being handled.

The contact owns a 2017 Ford Edge. The contact stated that the rearview camera intermittently displayed a blank or flickering image.

The coolant is getting consumed by the engine. I need to add coolant every so often and there is no visible leaks in the hoses. It cause the check engine light to come on, a rough idle at start, and a cylinder to misfire.

Recently I have noticed, in my 2017 Ford Edge SEL, that my coolant level in reservoir has been low a few times with no puddling anywhere under car. I have read that this is a known issue with this vehicle that has the 2.0L ECOBOOST engine. What can be done about this? From what I have been reading, this a design issue that Ford knows about but has not offered a fix. The cost to replace the engine is more than vehicle is worth. Is there some financial assistance or full coverage to cover the cost for my vehicle to be fixed? This has been an ongoing issue starting with, shifting hard at times, coolant loss with no explanation, and rough idling after cold start.

The 2017 Ford edge was parked in a parking spot, the shifter visually and physically engaged in the park position. Exited the vehicle went into the store. A vehicle passing by behind the Ford edge, noticed it slowly rolling backwards and did not stop colliding with the back of her truck. The Ford edge still showed as it was in park during this occurrence After for the research, it does appear that Ford does have an issue with this and it is a known issue just no specific recall issued for this specific Ford edge

My 2017 Ford Edge Sport has the exploding Panoramic moonroof. The first incident - the car was parked and the front movable glass panel was cracked (see picture 1). No objects hit the glass. The second incident occurred while was wife was driving on the interstate at 75mph. It sounded like a gun shot - glass exploded into the passenger compartment - luckily the sunvisor was CLOSED or my wife and her parents in the backseat would have been sprayed with broken glass (see pictures 2 and 3). No objects hit the glass - there were no other vehicles around her at the time of the incident. We have now replaced the movable glass panel twice at a total cost of $2500 -- via insurance with our deducible of $1000. And NOW - the rear non-movable glass panel is cracked! It just won't end! The 1st incident was about Oct. 25, 2024- the 2nd incident was around May 9, 2025.

- My electronic power steering failed. - My steering wheel would lock and not allow the car to turn. - It has been confirmed by an independent service center. They are having to replace the computer module steering service and steering rack and pinion. - No, it has not been inspected by the manufacturer, police or insurance. - The 2 times that the steering wheel would lock up, there would be a warning light for "service AdvanceTrac". This happened twice where the steering wheel would not move while driving, both within 3 days.

Adaptive Steering Fault warning appeared [XXX] … 34,000 miles… I was told there was a recall for this before I bought it from Jim Click ford in 2019 .. what do I do?? And is this Fords responsibility? INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

I bought this car used from Honda Dealership. It had 84,000 mileage on it and since then. The headlights are so dim and I can’t see you have to drive with high beam on every time I go at night I’ve changed almost we like 56 different types light bulb, but still nothing still worst. If I used one for the manufacturer one it’s nothing it’s literally dark outside. I can’t see nothing and another problem is as the ball joint since I bought it I took it from my first oil change when they did the inspection on the car they told me one of my passenger side ball joint was loose but that time I didn’t have money to repair it because it was almost $5000 they said and I was like I don’t have the money. I’m a college student so and recently my car wheel is to the left side more. Something if there’s anything I can do is there anything y’all can do to help cause I don’t want to get in an accident because of that thing.

2017 Ford Edge, front axle and ball joint had to be replaced around 33K- still under extended warranty.. Now same or opposite ball joint /axle making click/ ping at 43K no longer under warranty, cant tell left or right axle/ball joint. Will have to take it in to ford at Melbourne Fl at personal expense.. Probably next month...

Today, during a routine tire replacement (4 tires) due to tire wear, I was told by Big Box service facility that the lug nuts on my vehicle all were swollen and they could not address as they had no parts. I consider this an unsafe condition that I have been put in. My next step is to take it to the dealer. I will keep you posted!

The rear camera started to turn into a blue screen and sometimes it looked like static. We were told to go to Ford to change the camera (2020 or 2021?). After paying over $900 to fix the camera it broke yet again. We were 3 months past the 2 year warranty and was told if we wanted it fixed we would have to pay again. Now sometimes the camera works when backing out and sometimes its just solid blue. It is available for inspection upon request. This is risky because sometimes there are blind spots when turning our heads to ensure we are not going to hit a pedestrian. Also it takes me twice as long to reverse park due to having to use my mirrors to see the lines which causes drivers to honk or appear restless because I'm not fast enough which could cause me to crash into a parked vehicle. The problem has been confirmed by a dealership which is why they told us to replace it, but now they want us to replace it yet again. No warning lights. The vehicle no longer detects if objects are nearby. This happened shortly before the camera went out. They quoted us on fixing it and we refused due to cost. The vehicle drivers seat cooling and heating no longer works. It works for the passenger, but not the driver. This happened in 2019.

I was driving when I noticed a light on as I turned the car on as I was driving I saw 4 numbers showing which were the numbers for each tire but the one that was going down at a fast speed was the tire on the driver front tire. I had no blow out ,I had nothing for tire to go flat on me . When I was going to put on the spare that the card had I was not able to do that because I didn't have a jack or anything to change the tire. I had to get a used tire at a tire shop that cost me $60. And noticed that the number is not the same as my 3 other one's

Beginning in January 2026, the vehicle exhibited progressive symptoms including repeated lurching and difficulty shifting gears. These symptoms are consistent with the open and incomplete recall for the transmission shifter cable bushing and the powertrain control module reprogram. On or around March 25–26, 2026, while operating the vehicle at approximately 35 mph on a surface street, the following failure sequence occurred: the vehicle began producing a repetitive thudding sensation (thud-thud-thud), followed by violent shaking of the steering wheel, followed by a complete loss of steering response. The vehicle drifted uncontrollably into an adjacent lane of active traffic under clear, dry weather conditions — a loss of control consistent with brake hose failure causing uneven braking force, compounded by the known transmission and PCM defects. Collision with another vehicle was narrowly avoided. The vehicle currently has five open, incomplete recalls: (1) front brake flexible hose leak, (2) rear brake flexible hose leak, (3) transmission shifter cable bushing, (4) rear-view camera inspection, (5) powertrain control module reprogram. None have been completed. The described failure is consistent with and likely caused by these unresolved manufacturing defects. But the Owner has attempted multiple times to bring the vehicle to Ford but was turned away due to dealer capacity. No loaner vehicle was offered.
