2022 Ford Edge Driver assistance Problems

On Wednesday May 13th the car started acting a little jerky whence putting car in reverse like normal. There was a thunk sound. But it still shifted. We then drove the car about 10 miles. Then later in the day attempted to drive home. It’s was over-roving while driving. Acting erratic. We pulled into a tire place to see if something was stuck underneath. The check engine light was on and there was an error message saying broken parking brake? They said to have it towed to a Transmission Specilist. To our horror. They are saying it needs a new transmission! A 4 yr old car? This is not normal. It worked fine until now. It would not move out of second or third gear. It nearly crashed.

A month ago I rear ended somebody. I take full responsibility for this. However the crash alert did not go off. Yesterday I was driving down the road in the dark at about 6:00 AM, by myself, nobody else around and the crash alert went off for about two minutes saying that I was about ready to get into a wreck. Ford did look at it two weeks ago, they had one of their techs walk around it make sure that the crash alert would go off and apparently it did.

While driving at a slower speed between 20-40 mph the car will have a power surge as my mechanic called it. The RPMS constantly bounce while driving. It is hesitant to accelerate and is riding rough at a low speed. This is a risk while speeding up in traffic or merging onto the interstate the car is hesitant and can’t keep up with traffic which could cause a bad wreck. I had my vehicle at my local mechanic yesterday. It goes to my local ford dealer for inspection next week and they also told me they’ve had multiple reports of this issues from people. I have no lights on, on my dash and my local mechanic checked all my fuses and they were all good. He hooked a code reader up and there were no codes that showed up. This issue started last week on my vehicle.

The backup camera isn't working properly; it's very dim and glitchy. This was a known and recalled issue for 2021 - 2022 Ford Edges, but because of my VIN number, they won't fix it without charging me. If I'm having the same issue as the other recalled ones, why won't you service mine?
