2016 Ford Edge Engine Problems

Your engine experienced misfiring and made a water-running sound while running. The dealership discovered that coolant was leaking into the engine due to faulty seals, which eventually caused complete engine failure requiring a full replacement. While your car didn't lose power or stall, the dealership confirmed this was a known ongoing issue. The fix involves replacing the engine and resealing the coolant system.

Your car developed a coolant leak that allowed coolant to enter cylinder 2 of the engine, causing significant damage. The dealer confirmed the problem and you needed a complete engine replacement to fix it.

Your engine has an internal coolant leak that allows coolant to escape inside the engine block. You may notice your check engine light, rough idling when you first start the car, white smoke from the exhaust on cold starts, and a distinctive gurgling or waterfall sound as air gets into the cooling system. Your coolant level will drop over time even though you don't see puddles underneath the car. Fixing this typically requires either sealing the leak with a coolant system treatment or replacing internal engine components like the cylinder head gasket.

Vehicle Information: Year/Make/Model: 2016 Ford Edge SE Engine: 2.0L EcoBoost Mileage at Failure: ~79,000 miles Description of the Problem: I am reporting a safety-related defect involving engine coolant intrusion into the cylinders on my 2016 Ford Edge equipped with the 2.0L EcoBoost engine. At approximately 79,000 miles, my vehicle experienced engine misfires and internal coolant loss. A Ford dealership diagnosed the issue as coolant intrusion into the engine cylinders caused by internal engine block failure, which required replacement of the engine block / engine assembly. Safety Concern: This failure presents a safety hazard due to: -Sudden loss of engine power -Risk of engine stalling while driving -Increased chance of breakdown in traffic -Potential loss of vehicle control in certain driving conditions An engine should not experience catastrophic internal failure at this mileage under normal operating and maintenance conditions. Known Pattern and Manufacturer Awareness: This issue is well-documented across numerous Ford vehicles equipped with the 2.0L EcoBoost engine, including the 2015–2018 Ford Edge and other Ford models. Ford has issued multiple Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs) addressing coolant intrusion into the engine cylinders due to engine block design issues, demonstrating manufacturer awareness of the defect. Despite this, no recall has been issued, and affected owners are often denied assistance once the vehicle is outside the warranty period. Request to NHTSA: -Review this issue as a potential defect investigation -Evaluate the frequency/safety implications of coolant intrusion failures in Ford 2.0L EcoBoost engines - Consider whether further action or recall is warranted to protect vehicle owners and the public

Coolant intrusion into 2 and 3 cylinder, only 80,000 miles and the vehicle has been maintained religiously and we have to replace the engine!

Complaint Description: My 2016 Ford Edge 2.0L EcoBoost is experiencing a catastrophic engine failure due to "coolant intrusion" into the engine cylinders, a known manufacturing defect associated with the open-deck engine block design in this model year (referenced in Ford TSB 19-2346). The Failure: While driving at highway speeds (65+ MPH) on California freeways, the vehicle intermittently and suddenly enters "limp mode," drastically reducing power and acceleration without warning. This makes it impossible to merge safely or keep up with traffic, creating a life-threatening safety hazard for myself and other motorists. History & Diagnosis: The issue began in early 2025 with a Check Engine Light, which was initially misdiagnosed by a mechanic as a non-critical boost leak. The condition worsened significantly in Q4 2025, leading to dangerous stalls in power. A new independent inspection confirmed the root cause is not a boost leak, but internal coolant leakage into the engine block cylinders. This defect has caused permanent engine damage requiring a full engine replacement. The failure mode is identical to thousands of other complaints regarding the 2.0L EcoBoost engine, yet no safety recall exists to address the sudden loss of motive power.

The manufacturer was contacted, and confirmed there was no recall coverage for the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 80,000.

My 2016 Ford with only 56,210 miles has developed a critical engine failure. The engine block due to a manufactuing design flaw has caused the coolant to leak into one of the cylinders. Dealership informed me I need a new motor at the cost of $7300.00. Ford will not stand behind the repair due to the age of my vehicle. It's in excellent condition other than the defective engine block.

I’ve had my car nine years. No problems with the body there’s no rust on it at all, and I love my ford. Just as I hit 100,000 miles the warning light came on the car. Come to find out it is a head gasket leak and is required to have a whole new engine. Yes the warranty is over as the car has been paid for and the warranty is expired. My complaint is that Ford knows this is an issue which I know for a fact that they know this. I cannot afford $7100 for a new engine when I just want to keep my car. I can’t even afford another car not even a beater for $1000. I’m complaining that ford knows this is a known issue, but because I am out of warranty, they will not help me. I’ve had ford’s most of my life and never had an issue like this. Very disappointing that a big company like this has a known issue but will not help repair it.

My 2016 Ford Edge has 95,000 miles on it and I have only owned it since Spring of this year. Out of nowhere, I start having an antifreeze leak, and notice it is coming from my water pump, and my mechanic says it is going to cost $2000 plus dollars to fix it. I called several other repair places and they won’t even do the repair because it’s such a big/expensive job. I have researched about the class action lawsuit about this particular problem in my exact model with the 3.5L motor. If my Dad had not of noticed the leak, it would have completely ruined my motor driving it around much longer. I am struggling financially after having serious health problems this summer, and I simply can’t afford to pay for this repair. I can’t even get approved for any more loans or credit cards, because I am in so much debt. I want to know what can be done about this, as this is way too much financial stress for me to have to deal with. At the very least, Ford should compensate me and take care of the repair costs.

Check engine light came on. A friend of mine said she saw smoke from my rear exhaust. Ran codes came back as a misfire. Spark plugs; the cold idle had become a little rough. I was driving home from work 2 1/2 weeks ago and had to stop because a warning came across my screen about hot coolant or engine in red with exclamation marks.My daughters boyfriend came out where I stopped and changed my thermostat because one of the hoses was hot and one not showing it was stuck closed. I asked him to do my spark plugs at a later date. I took the car to Byerly Ford for a coolant flush because I realized I should have used the same coolant. I asked for spark plugs. They couldn't fit it in that day because I scheduled online. He asked if I could leave it overnight. I couldn't. I was then told it may be this bigger known problem if residue under spark plugs come back. He also asked if I had been topping fluid. I told him no. Last Friday night the bf changed my plugs. Residue under # 3. He asked why my coolant looked brown. He opened the cap and saw the coolant was low but good color and the container was stained. I bought the correct coolant. I called Monday morning to see if I could get it in that day. I was sent to voicemail of who is in charge of Engine work.I left a brief message as was requested. I haven't received a call back. Tuesday night (last night) after opening the cap to checking my coolant level and the level rose a bit; my car wouldn't start. I came across TSB#22-2229 which states safety concerns. This includes my cars year, make, model and engine type. I read of a class action lawsuit and recall, but when I look up my vehicles recalls this problem is not listed. I will be calling Byerly shortly to discuss me having my car towed up there for definitive diagnosis. My 2016 Edge has 90016.5 miles. I got new brake pads very recently as well as my the works oil change (no issues)and tires are newish.I have cared for this car with the expectation of twice the milage.

I was having issues with my car starting. Once I got it started a large cloud of white smoke rolled out of the exhaust. As I drove it the overheat warning came on. I took it in to a shop. I was advised that a coolant intrusion into the engine cylinders, particularly with EcoBoost engines. This issue stems from a design flaw in the open deck engine block, which can lead to misfires, white smoke, and ultimately engine failure1. Ford issued TSB 22-2229 addressing this issue, My car has 116,102 miles on it. Upon doing some research, there have been thousands of the same model of engines that have been reported as having this issue, yet Ford has not recalled the engine. I am now have to shell out over $10,000 to fix an engine that Ford is aware is defective yet not doing anything about it.

The engine needs to be replaced due to coolant intrusion. This issue had no initial warning, and the car suddenly had issues accelerating and when I looked under the hood at home was low on coolant. I refilled it. Next morning an engine light came on for misfire in cylinder #3. I had an engine coil and the spark plugs replaced and it seemed fine for about a week before everything resumed happening again. Was then told the head gasket. My mechanic said to take it to ford for coolant intrusion & that this was a known issue with their engines. I feel this should be a recall, this is not safe. Ford has today confirmed I need a new long block due to coolant intrusion. Not only is this issue unsafe, but it’s very costly to fix. I’ve already spent $400 on this, and now I’m going to have to spend several thousand on a new engine for a car I’ve only owned for 20k miles.

Check engine light revealed code P0302. This is due to coolant intrusion into cylinder 2 (confirmed by Ford dealership) due to faulty open deck coolant design by Ford. TSB 22-2229 was issued by Ford on 09 June 2022 concerning ecoboost engines exhibiting codes, similar to mine, as a coolant intrusion. The only fix is a long block replacement. My dealership service department diagnosed ($170) and requested financial assistance on my behalf to Ford, but was rejected in totality. This is a Ford design flaw that causes this coolant leak and the only fix is a complete engine replacement. If the engine fails before the manufacturer warranty of 5/60k, then Ford will pick up the tab. If the vehicle is bought used (in my case), and goes past 60k miles, then Ford will recuse themselves from any liability.

I bought my 2016 Ford Edge on May 30, 2025. Six weeks later it started with engine light coming on with code P0304, misfire in cylinder 4. Than white smoke from exhaust only at first morning startup. Took to Ford Dealership Mechanic only to be told I needed a new long block in engine due to coolant leak. Price $9000

Coolant is being leaked into the #2 cylinder causing the car to misfire. Coolant isn't a lubricant and it causes wear in the cylinder. Also causes a misfire like water in your gas. I have a car that 98% of that this type of car works correctly but the broken 2% will cost $8000 due to the block needing replaced. Ford knows that this is an issue that goes back 5 or 6 years, but yet has not made a recall nor gives any program to be fixed.

My car was having issues and still is having issues starting after refueling. After putting fuel in the vehicle my car stalls out. I restart the car I have to give it gas before hurrying up and putting it in drive just to keep the car on. Due to a potential internal leak in the canister purge valve this can cause excessive vacuum in the fuel tank and can potentially lead to a crack in the tank, which can lead to a fuel leak and or fire. The check engine light came on reading one code. And because I'm unable to afford to have it repaired because of how expensive it is, I now have three codes coming off the check engine light. I smell fuel when I turn my car off or I'm running I'm running low on gas. My VSA light has also been on during all of this as well. I would gladly bring the vehicle to anyone to get it completely diagnosed by any professional of your choice.

The vehicle started shaking and vibrating violently at 70mph on the highway followed by a loud pop. At this time a warning light appeared on the dash. I could barely control the vehicle during this incident and could have lost control at high speed. This endangered the occupants of my car as well as everyone else on the road. I had just taken the vehicle in for service several weeks prior and was told it was in great working condition. I was able to drive the vehicle to a certified Ford dealership who diagnosed the issue as a common problem within this particular Ford engine. He showed me the Technical Service Bulletin (19-2243) that Ford released internally showing they were aware of the problem but never recalled the affected vehicles. The dealership confirmed that the only fix is replacing all cylinder heads or the entire engine.

What happened with your engine? My engine malfunctioned unexpectedly at just 79,000 miles, despite no history of major engine problems. The final diagnosis showed a blown head gasket. Were there any warning signs beforehand? Yes—about two to three weeks before the malfunction, I received multiple cylinder misfire codes and a low coolant warning. I had both issues checked out and believed they were resolved at the time, as the car was running fine afterward. Did the car stop running completely? Yes. After everything seemed okay for a bit, the car suddenly wouldn’t start. We ruled out the battery, as it had already been tested and was functioning correctly. Were there other warning lights or concerns? Yes. Right before a planned trip, my tire pressure light came on. I had it checked and everything looked fine. After about 10 miles, the light turned off, but it began flashing again intermittently, along with the engine light, even after restarting the car multiple times. What was the final outcome? After further inspection, it was confirmed that the root issue was a blown head gasket, which led to the engine failure.

I am writing to express my dissatisfaction with the issue of coolant intrusion in my Ford vehicle. Despite maintaining the car regularly and following the manufacturer’s guidelines, I have experienced repeated problems with coolant entering areas where it shouldn’t, which has caused significant engine performance issues and potential long-term damage. As a Ford customer, I expected a higher standard of quality and reliability, especially regarding critical components like the cooling system. I am disappointed that this issue has not been addressed proactively by Ford, and I urge the company to investigate this matter further and offer a resolution to prevent future occurrences for other affected customers.

Tony Betten & Sons Ford, Grand Rapids, MI, replaced a leaking plastic oil pan 03.14.2025, at mileage 61,182. There were no warning lamps or messages and no incidence of damage. We noted continuous oil spots on the garage floor, even after a 01.13.2025 oil and filter change. We were concerned that this oil leakage would compromise engine lubrication, possibly leading to engine failure. We have purchased 3 Edges, the first a 2008 model went over 200,000 miles without oil leakage. We currently own a 2022 Ford Edge ST. It is surprising for an oil pan to spontaneously leak at 60,000 mileage. After our excellent 200,000+ mileage experience with the 2008, we expected similarly spectacular operation from the 2016.

I purchased a 2016 Ford Edge and it has been one problem after another. This particular problem, and the last straw, has to do with coolant leaking from my car. After reading several complaints over a period of years it seems to be the same issue with many owners of the same make and model, a crack in the cylinder or motor (Long Block). I also read that Ford is aware of this problem and nothing has been done towards resolving the situation. This cannot be an ongoing issue. What will it take before a recall is made? After paying for several repairs since purchasing the car, I have exhausted all of my resources and can not afford an engine replacement. Will someone please, please, please, hear our complaints and offer a resolution that will not cost us an arm and a leg as a result of the manufacturer's negligence. I am very disappointed in FORD.

Coolant was leaking into cylinder #1 in the engine. The engine consequently had to be replaced, and a Ford dealer replaced it. Coolant was leaking into the engine because of a design defect in the engine that Ford has known about for a long time. See Ford Technical Service Bulletin 22-2229. The design defect is a safety risk. My vehicle would not pass Pennsylvania’s vehicle safety inspection required annually by Pennsylvania law because of the coolant leaking into the cylinder in the engine due to the design defect. Information about Pennsylvania’s vehicle safety inspections required by Pennsylvania law is at [XXX] . “Pennsylvania requires vehicle safety inspections to ensure that vehicles are maintained for safe operation. Safety Inspections can prevent vehicle failure on the highways and crashes that may result in injuries or death.” Id. Coolant leaking into an engine cylinder(s) could result in engines overheating due to low or no coolant, thereby endangering the safety of passengers, other drivers, and others. Vehicle fires because of engine overheating while the vehicle is parked in a home garage could result in a house fire, thereby endangering the safety and lives of persons in the house and neighbors. Additionally, coolant leaking into an engine cylinder(s) results in excessive smoke/emissions when the vehicle is started, thereby negatively affecting air quality and the safety and health of everyone who breathes the contaminated air. The clouds of smoke produced by coolant burning off when the vehicles are started in a driveway or parking lot could obscure the vision of other drivers or pedestrians or distract them, thereby endangering their safety, the safety of the vehicle occupants, and the safety of others. Ford paid about 20% of the engine replacement cost, and I had to pay the rest, which was $7,037.08 including $400.02 PA sales tax.

The 2016 Ford Edge 2.0L EcoBoost has sadly caused us countless issues and extensive $ to repair. The latest issue is the 2020 investigation that revealed a design defect of the engine block and cylinder head, and coolant has been leaking and burning in the engine cylinder, which has lead to me needing a new engine. Unfortunately, the suit displays documented proof Ford knew about it and didn’t disclose it to buyers. This has lead to vast overheating, risking the vehicle catching on fire while in use, burning empty coolant, and a potential for having a blown engine on the highway. We took the car to a trusted shop when the overheating issue occurred and this was our circumstance.

We are Canadians live in Calgary, AB Canada. We have a 2016 ford egde. There was an engine warning sign popped up when we had a road trip in US days ago. We also noticed that the car chokes when cold start with white sweet smoke come out. We had the car checked up by a ford dealer at coos bay, Oregon. Here is the diagnostics - dtcp0303 stored related to cylinder 3 misfire - found engine coolant level low - topped off coolant and pressure tested system - found pressure to bleed off abnormally - no external leaks observed - removed aprk plug and bore scope cylinder - verified coolant intrusion in cylinder 3 also found signs of burning coolant on spark plug - recommended repair is long block replacement. We cancelled our unfinished trip and struggled to drive 2000km back home(low speed, keep checking/adding coolant and engine oil). The local ford dealer quoted me 10k CAD to replace the long block. Our car is not even 8 years old at 130K kms. I called Ford Canada and was told they are sorry but the car is out of warranty and no recalls. Although there is a TSB#22-2229 which proves this is a known issue to Ford. I spent some time search on line found many ford owners had same experience and referred by them to post a complain here.

I'm filing a complaint regarding my 2016 Ford Edge Titanium with the 2.0L EcoBoost engine, which required two engine replacements due to a defect causing coolant intrusion into the cylinders.The engine failed due to coolant leaking into the cylinders, a problem diagnosed and confirmed by Ford technicians. Both engines are no longer in the vehicle, but documentation is available upon request. My safety and the safety of others were put at significant risk on two separate occasions. The first engine failed at 67,000 miles, leading to the engine blowing while I was driving on the highway. This nearly caused an accident as the vehicle suddenly lost power. The second engine, which was a replacement from a 2018 Ford Edge with the same 2.0L EcoBoost engine, also failed in a similar manner at 87,000 miles, again while I was driving on the highway. On this occasion, I was left stranded on the side of the highway in the desert for 7 hours in over 100-degree weather, further endangering my safety. The problem was diagnosed and confirmed by a Ford dealership on both occasions. The first failure was diagnosed as coolant leaking into cylinder 3, causing the vehicle to misfire and eventually leading to the engine blowing. The second engine was inspected by a Ford repair technician during a recall service, where the same coolant leak issue was diagnosed. Less than two months after this diagnosis, the second engine also blew while I was driving. Ford service technicians inspected and confirmed the problem both times. Repair and diagnostic reports are available. The first indication of the problem with the original engine was a check engine light so I took the vehicle to Ford. The dealership diagnosed the issue as coolant leaking into cylinder 3, causing misfires. Despite this diagnosis, the engine failed before I could arrange for the recommended long block replacement. The second engine began exhibiting the same symptoms—misfiring and coolant loss—shortly before it also failed.

I have a 2016 Ford EdgeTitanium with a 2.0 EcoBoost with 63,000 miles on it. In May of 2024 my check engine light came on. Verified coolant intrusion into cylinder 1 causing engine failure. Mileage on the car does not warrant an engine replacement. When Ford was contacted, both the original dealership and manufacturer, they took no fault in the matter. I was told there was a possibility of an engine fire if left as it was. I had to pay $9469.44 for a new engine! Many forums show this same issue happening with the same year/make/model. Ford should be held accountable for a known defect in the block that was not corrected through a recall.

check engine light came on, when assessed I was told it was a cylinder 3 misfire. Car began overheating while driving down the highway. Took it to a shop who performed block test > found combustion gases in cooling system caused by blown head gasket > replaced head gasket, timing chains & sprockets. After head gasket was replaced there was white smoke & misfire at cold start up - (been this almost ever since we replaced the head gasket). Shop then tested cooling system for combustion gases > found head gasket leaking due to cracking block at gasket surface > replaced complete engine assembly.

At 83,000 miles the car exhibited a P0301 check engine light for a misfire. Several troubleshooting steps were taken including new spark plugs, swapped ignition coils and then troublehooting shifted to checking for the known coolant intrusion issue. TSB 22-2229 was followed and after pressurizing the coolant system to 21 psi and inserting an endoscope visual confirmation of coolant leaking into the cylinder from the head gasket was discovered. This is a known issue to Ford that they have not acknowledged other than a TSB which advises to replacing replace the long block. We are going this route to the quote of $8,818.15. Due to Ford's change in coolant passage design they have created an engine with known issues that they are failing to warranty.

There is a continuous cylinder 1 misfire and rough idle at start. Have replaced spark plugs, replaced valve cover gasket and spark plug tube seals and coolant continue to drain quickly with cylinder 1 misfire check engine light popping up every week.

coolant leaked onto the cylinders of the engine causing engine failure. This has been confirmed from Ken Stoepel Ford service center and is a known issue. Vehicle check engine light came on and at the same time the vehicle started running rough which is when I took it to the dealership to be diagnosed. It’s a safety concern because this can cause overheating and a fire. On top of that the known defect has ruined my engine. This has been an ongoing issue for the ecoboost engine for many people but has yet to be recalled. Vehicle has not been driven since being diagnosed.

Overheat/Power loss indication on 2016 Ford Edge with Ecoboost 2.0 resulting coolant leakage into #2 cylinder verified by dealer (failure per TSB [XXX]). Prior TSBs [XXX] have been issued for same problem, but Ford did not assign our VIN to those bulletins. Problem should have been identified when vehicle was under warranty if TSB application were complete. We had P302 code (cylinder 2 misfire), so plugs/coils were replaced. 3 days later ([XXX]) we were traveling home from dinner (approx. 35 MPH, about 3 miles from home) and got a "Overheat" indicator with an indicator stating something similar to "Engine Loss of Power" light. Parked car at home, topped off coolant the next morning and had white smoke from the exhaust upon start-up. Vehicle towed to Ford dealer (01/09/24)...vehicle had not been driven, awaiting dealer availability for diagnosis. Relevant Ford dealer notes on Repair Order are as follows: "PRESSURIZE COOLING SYSTEM AND LEFT OVERNIGHT, FOUND IN A.M. LOSS OF MOST OF PRESSURE. CHECK HISTORY FAULT CODES, FOUND P0302, P0217. REMOVE CYL 2 SPARKPLUG AND CHECK WITH BORESCOPE. FOUND EVIDENCE OF MINOR COOLANT INTRUSION, CLEAN PISTON AND SHINY SLIGHTLY WET. FAILED ENGINE TSB [XXX]. NEED REPLACE LONG BLOCK." There are multiple reports of engine fires and other issues resulting from this condition [XXX] ). This is my mother-in-law's vehicle and I'm advocating for her. I contacted Ford Customer Care, said that they couldn't do anything to help due to family not meeting standards for incentives...in other words since my mother-in-law doesn't buy cars annually, they won't help even though she has been a loyal ford customer. They referred me to NHTSA to request that the VIN be added to the TSB, then they may cover repairs. Contacted NHTSA who confirms that is solely Ford's decision. They stated that Ford routinely misstates NHTSA's role in this process. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

As identified by my VIN number, I have a 2016 Ecoboost Ford Edge. Since 2022 I've been dealing with a failing engine from constant leaking of coolant fluids into the internals of the engine. This leaking of coolant is causing excessive white smoke to push out of my vehicles exhaust system. I'm constantly putting additional coolant into the reserva. I've been periodically stranded stranded on the side of the roadway from the engine overheating. Until I discovered that there is a known issue with this vehicle, I have spend hundreds of dollar on repairs based on the check engine light codes. Then on Jun 17th, 2024 I took my vehicle to a Ford service center and after paying over three hundred dollars for an diagnostics test I was told I need a new engine.

Coolant is leaking into the engine cylinders and burning through coolant rapidly. The exact issue that is referenced in recall 20V469000. My vehicle is currently not eligible for this recall, based on a VIN search on Ford.com and from speaking to a Ford customer service rep. It's my understanding that this problem can lead to engine failure or fire which is a significant risk to me and my family. No warning lamps or messages came on at any point. I only realized that the coolant tank was completely empty once I noticed that my heater was blowing cold air and did some internet research. My local Ford Dealer (DeNooyer Ford, Vicksburg, MI) has inspected and diagnosed, confirming that this is indeed the problem and that the vehicle requires a long block engine replacement. The quote for replacement starts at $8,000. If further inspection is needed from NHTSA, the vehicle will be available until I am able to replace the engine or sell.

Ford Edge coolant leak causing engine failure

The contact's sister owns a 2016 Ford Edge. The contact stated while her sister was driving at an undisclosed speed, the check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed that there was coolant intrusion in cylinder #3. The dealer determined that the engine needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired.

Automobile overheats due to the loss of antifreeze coolant into the engine piston cylinder. This is a known 2016 Ecoboost engine problem where a crack develops in the engine block and the coolant leaks/intrudes into the piston cylinder. Sudden loss of power at any speeds when the engine overheats. Repair for this problem requires an engine replacement with a newer, redesigned version of the engine block.

My 2016 Ford Edge equipped with a 2.0L EcoBoost engine had coolant leak into the engine cylinders and my check engine light came on. Upon contacting Ford, they said it happens and I should be fine to take a 1,046-mile road trip to Colorado and back home. I then had my hometown mechanic look at the problem and he said I had a P0304 problem and that I need to stop driving the car immediately. He printed off the Technical Service Bulletin dated 06/26/2019. He said if I drove it, it would overheat and potentially catch fire. I immediately drove it to the Ford dealership I purchased this car from and after checking they said I needed a new engine, and I would pay approximately $4,700.00 right before the holidays. I rented a car for my trip and when I returned, I called the dealership on 11/14/23 and told them to put the new engine in as I can't afford this expense or another vehicle. The bill amounted to $5,955.80 and the difference the dealership said they would bill to Ford, and they would get reimbursed, but I had to pay $4,700.00. This was not on my radar, budget or understanding as the defect was known since 2019 and I had this car in to my Ford dealership for maintenance many times after this and not one word was mentioned about this faulty engine design. I am single mother with no child support. Shame on Ford!

I own a 2016 Ford Edge SEL AWD Ecoboost with all of the symptoms of the TSB that Ford released on June 9, 2022 (2.0L EcoBoost - Coolant In Cylinders, White Exhaust Smoke And/Or Illuminated MIL). I brought it for service at Palm Springs Ford in September and received a very large estimate (approx $13,000) to replace the engine, motor and transmission mounts, etc. This is not something that I had expected nor can afford at this time. I see no recall available for this issue. The vehicle is seven (7) years old with 75,932.4 miles and I cannot imagine that coolant leaks and engine failures are a normal feature for a car of this age and with this mileage. I planned to drive this car for several more years and I am disappointed in Ford’s lack of quality control/assurance.

I had my vehicle serviced (oil change, tire rotation, fluid levels topped off) before we took a trip to Florida from Massachusetts. On the way home from the trip we experienced no heat in our vehicle so we had the vehicle checked out thinking maybe the thermostat needed replacing. Instead the repair shop found the coolant level down by over 1 gallon. They performed a pressure check for leaks and found none. They informed me that there was a for the 2016 Ford Edge. We found an article on line that stated TSB [XXX] superseded TSB [XXX]. I then went to my Ford Dealer to explain the issue that we experienced the issues associated with that TSB and they informed me that my vehicle had no recalls. Ford informed me that it depended on build dates which seems odd when the issue covers several years of this make and model how can it come down to a single date. We got no warning lights lights just the white smoke from the exhaust as well as the loss of a lot of coolant. Looking for direction on how to proceed, I feel this should be covered by Ford because of the numerous issues reported as well as low mileage for the 7 year old vehicle.

My vehicle began to have a very low idle when first starting it. Within a week or so the check engine light came on. The day after the light came on, my vehicle almost didn't start up and so I took it to the dealership. I was told that my engine was no longer good due to coolant intrusion into the cylinder and that my car needed a new engine at less than 70,000 miles. My vehicle has been serviced and maintained by Ford since it was new. Ford agreed to pay for 40% of the total cost ($7,615).

Vehicle is suffering from the known Ford 2.0 EcoBoost Engineering defect "coolant intrusion". Vehicle has 76K miles and because it is out of warranty period, requires a total engine replacement at the cost of over $8000. At this time Ford Customer Care is not willing to offer Customer Satisfaction programs to assist or recall (even though they did recall the 1.5 EcoBoost). Ford has lost a loyal customer as I no longer can justify brand loyalty (father and grandfather both worked for Ford) because of lack of confidence in their Engineering and Quality.

Head gasket failed leading to coolant leaking into the head causing over heating and cracking the head.engine had to be replaced

On, or around, August 10th, I was driving my 2016 Ford Edge on the freeway, when my car started to stutter. I was not sure if the car would stall in rush hour traffic. The check engine light came on. After that, the car was difficult to start and ran roughly for several minutes. I also noticed that the car had started to use a lot of anti-freeze/coolant. I had the car diagnosed by an independent mechanic and found that the coolant was leaking into an engine cylinder. After researching the matter, it appears that this is a fairly common occurrence with the Ford Edge. There have been recalls for this problem, but my vin number is not one listed on the recall, although it is in the same year and the same problem. I am seeking help in getting this manufacturing failure resolved. I am not currently driving the vehicle, at the problem was getting worse. The vehicle is available for inspection.

I'm experiencing rough engine idle at stop lights or parked, in in gear (under load). At engine start, I am experiencing white smoke from exhaust, some engine mis-fires and low coolant. I started to look up similar experiences and it seems that it is a know issue by Ford, in which coolant is leaking into engine. I have engine power latency from full stop, low fuel economy and steady engine clicking noise/rattle.

The issue is with the 2.0 Eco Boast Engine on a 2016 Ford Edge with 50,000 miles on it. White smoke was coming from both tailpipes. Engine light come on and then a warning light came on that car was switching to low power mode to prevent overheating. This happened while driving to doctor. I was able to make it home safely and immediately called the dealer and slowly drove the car to dealer. They informed me that I needed a new engine and coolant was leaking into the engine, causing this issue. The car has been at dealer for over a week while waiting for a new engine and parts. We are repairing the engine. Invoice for this work won't be available until next week but cost is around $8,000.00. No help from Ford per several telephone conversations with them. Dealer did contact Ford on our behalf and Ford is offering no assistance. After doing research on line regarding this issue, I discovered that this is a very common problem with this engine and Ford knew about the issue and continued to put these engines into cars. Some cars have even caught fire due to this engine issue. There is a class action lawsuit pending in CA for this very same reason.

[XXX] #:~:text [XXX] i just had to pay out of pocket $8,500.00 to replace the engine for a known issue with their eco boost 2.0 engine. Ford is aware of this and has been for many years yet no recall despite the safety issues and out of pocket expense to owners of the Edge, Escape, and other Eco Boost engine models. Spoke with Ford Customer Relations and was told nothing can be done. How are there two class action lawsuits in place, yet no recall to have these known defective engines replaced? Ford has been aware of the engineering and manufacturing flaws yet continues to sell these models in a fraudulent manner. Risk of fire, car stopping in traffic are just several catastrophic outcomes, not to mention having to replace the engine at owners expense as soon as the 3/36 warranty passes.

I have the flex plate issue where it is cracked - and Ford will not fix the recall for free. I brought the car in prior to this issue and was told it was not cracked and now months later (and the recall time is gone) it is a cracked flex plate. Now I have to pay 4K to fix it, because I didn't make the timeline for the recall.

My engine is leaking coolant into the oil and causing a cylinder misfire and smoke coming from the exhaust. Need full engine replacement on the 4 cylinder ecoboost.

CAR WAS MISFIRING AND ROUGH STARTING WITH WHITE SMOKE OUT OF THE EXHAUST. TOOK IT TO MY SERVICE ADVISOR AND WAS TOLD THERE WAS ISSUE WITH THE COOLANT LEAKING INTO THE ENGINE AND THAT I WOULD NEED A NEW ENGINE. THEY USED A TEMPORARY FIX WITH A K-SEAL UNTIL WE DECIDED ON WHAT TO DO. I RECENTLY SEARCHED ABOUT THIS ISSUE ONLINE AND FOUND OUT THAT THIS LEAK COULD CAUSE THE CAR TO OVERHEAT AND CATCH FIRE WHICH IS A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUE. I ALSO FOUND OUT THAT FORD HAD A RECALL ON THIS ON ECOBOOST TYPE ENGINE WITH OTHER MODELS. I CALLED MY FORD DEALERSHIP AND FORD CUSTOMER CARE AND THEY ARE NOT SHOWING A RECALL. MY CAR IS IN GREAT SHAPE AND HAS 108,000 MILES. READING THE AMOUNT OF COMPLAINTS ONLINE ABOUT THE SAME FORD EDGE 2.0 ECOBOOST ENGINE PROBLEMS AND THE DANGER WITH THE RISK OF FIRE SHOULD BE CAUSE FOR THIS TO BE AN IMMEDIATE RECALL IN WHICH FORD SHOULD BE ACCOUNTABLE.

Well, the car check engine light started flashing and my entire car started shaking, my coolant levels went from in between the max and min line to super below the minimum line, from what I've gathered there has been a major issue with your engine manufacturing for Ford Edges in 2015-2018 where the head gasket was not designed or manufactured correctly, thereby allowing coolant to leak out damaging the engine. it seems that several people have been running into this issue and nothing has been done about it, and your dealerships are charging to have the long block or flat out the entire engine replaced having customers pay out of their own pocket to fix a known issue your cars have been having for years when, having the issue leading to the car effectively being totaled should be repaired and covered by Ford via a recall due to the gravity of the issue itself, and the issue being caused from the manufacturer themselves. I've taken my car to several mechanics, and they all said the same thing about this problem with coolant getting into the cylinders and make the car completely useless. I had a cylinder 4 misfire at the beginning of this year and assumed it was the spark plugs so I replaced them all, and then the check engine light came on again and it said the same problem, so I took I into a mechanic and they told me about the coolant problem in June, and that it could be an issue I deal with and that they had seen that alot. But my car has been flashing for the last couple days I believe on August 20th.

Coolant leak, confirmed by service tech (p0036, p0217,p0301, p0316) need to replace head gasket, coolant in combustion chamber, warning message engine overheating will reduce power.

My check engine light came on as my car started rough and white smoke was coming out of the engine and tailpipes. I immediately shut the car off and had it towed to Dahl Ford. I got a call later that morning that I needed an entire new engine due to a defective coolant design that caused the coolant to leak down on the engine and could start the engine on fire. I have 65,000 miles on this vehicle and have had all service completed by Dahl Ford which has only been oil changes. Dahl Ford had me call Ford Motor in Detroit because they have had so many engines with this coolant defective designed engine that can start a fire in the engine. They said Ford put out a TSB #22-2229 in June 2022 but has not done a recall and told me to report this to NHTSA. New engine replacement cost $6800.00 which I had to replace.

This happened in late June when I started my car it had white smoke coming out of the exhaust which cleared and no warning light on. I drove it to work and back and we checked coolant, and it was low so added and the next time I drove it, the check engine light went on! I called the Ford Dealership near me which is about an hour away and made an appointment to take on July 14th. The diagnosis was coolant leaking into my second cylinder and the block where head sits is worn down. I need a new long block, engine! $6000 was the quote!!!! My car is a 2016 Ford Edge with 75725 miles on it! I called Ford Customer Service and this car is not eligible for Financial Assistance and I have not heard from the Corporate Office! I have seen complaints of exactly the same thing and some people are getting Ford to help with the bill and not sure how they decipher what vehicle does or does not qualify! I am working on this issue and will not settle for nothing! I have never experienced anything like this, this is terrible! Who can afford this at this time in our lives and why???? It is a Ford issue not the consumer!!!! They have known about this for quite some time and the block on my car being worn is a manufacturing defect, it happened in the casting of the block, that car should have never left the plant with the correct inspection, where were the inspectors on this?? Ford used to give their dealerships a budget to help out issues like this for their customers but that has ended so nothing the dealership can do but fix your car and you pay the bill and good luck after that! As a Ford customer I have been taken advantage of, my safety was put in jeopardy and there is no loyalty at all to the customer!!! Not good for them! This car should have a recall on it and they should foot my bill and every other person who has experienced this and there are a lot of us!!!!! Ford should take responsibility for their poor actions!

The vehicle started to make a low rattling noise that grew louder each time the vehicle was idling. We now believe the flexplate is cracked. Ford has sent out a letter stating they are aware the flexplate may crack but they are not willing to cover repairs on the vehicle after a certain time period, which has already passed. They state in the letter to not bring vehicles in unless they are making a rattling noise.

Car has a little over 100,000 miles 2017 Ford edge. Engine light came on, took to a Ford dealership where we were informed that coolant was leaking into the cylinders and would need to replace the whole engine. From researching this issue I have discovered that this seems to be a big problem with not just my car but others as well and ones with less miles and yet Ford will not pay for replacement or issue a recall on this issue. The car is sitting at the dealership now as we think about what should be done next.

In 2016, I purchased a new Ford Edge. In June 2023, I'm informed by Ford Certified Personnel that the engine has a "Coolant Inclusion" issue requiring replacement with a new engine. This problem caused by a design flaw in the engine that Ford was aware of in 2009 and continued to install without repair or recall. Research information shows it can cause overheating and possible vehicle fire. My service records can be verified with Brinson Ford, Athens TX. [XXX], Service Advisor.

Ford has issued a service bulletin for the issue 22-2229. My vehicle has 89615 miles on it, and has been properly maintained over the years. This seems like from a quick google search is a wide spread problem with these vehicles. Will there be a recall or some type of relief from the cost of this repair?

When you start the car it acts as if it wants to bogg down and stall out going down road. Took car to ford and they said,"oh, we have a service bulletin on this car for coolant getting into the engine causing engine to over heat or misfire, it is a defect in the 2.0 ecoboost engines, and we have to replace your engine for 7,600." This is in multiple vehicles, class action law suits, engines over heating, some catch fire. Ford needs to be investigated for defective motors in these vehicles.

There was also white smoke coming from the tailpipe. They looked into the cylinder and saw that coolant had breached the cylinder. They found a Technical Service Bulletin for this exact problem, https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2019/MC-10162071-0001.pdf. The fix is to replace the engine, which rough estimates indicate upwards of $8,000. This issue should be an official recall. I’ve noticed many complaints on this site referencing the same issue.

My 2016 Ford Edge SEL AWD 2.0L (65,000 Miles on engine) Ecoboost Engine started to experience a rough idle on a cold start, which would run normal after about 15 seconds, I also noticed the smell off coolant and a low level coolant in the reservoir but could not find a leak. These symptoms went on for about a month, then one day the engine light popped on while driving. I attached my Code Reader which resulted in a P0302 Engine Misfire Code. I attempted to remove the #2 spark plug. The spark plug was seized in the engine head. After research on-line. I found out this is a known issue by Ford for this engine. Engine coolant leaking into the cylinders (a design flaw which was corrected in 2019 for new vehicles). Technical Service Bulletin 22-2229. For Motor Company is only repairing vehicles under warranty. So consumers like myself that trusted the Ford name/product are being stuck with the repair bill. My repair bill is $6,563.29 , this was for a New Engine Long Block which is Ford Motor Company's recommended fix for their flawed design or their engine. The effected engines include 1.5L, 1.6L and 2.0L Ecoboost engines.

I had check engine light come on August 2022. Car was rough running at the start up and outputted white smoke. September 2022 brought to Ford Service Department, error code for piston misfire. They changed the spark plugs. Check engine light came back on in October 2022. Brought back to the Ford Service Department, engine leaking coolant and told I need a new engine. Repair is scheduled for December 2022. The mileage is 48,347 and regularly maintained/serviced.

The engine needs replacing. With no warning my check engine light came on. Car had trouble starting and then progressed into smoke coming from tailpipes. Took car to Ford dealer. Told need new engine, there is a flaw in engine block allowing coolant to leak into cylinders. Car has only 72000 miles. Could have resulted in fire if I continued to drive it. Ford needs to issue a recall on these engines immediately.

The contact owns a 2016 Ford Edge. The contact stated that upon starting the vehicle, the vehicle was shaking and was unable to accelerate properly. The contact stated that after waiting for the shaking to cease, the vehicle drove as needed. The contact stated that the check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where the failure was determined to be a faulty head gasket that was leaking coolant. The dealer stated that the engine needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and a case was opened. The manufacturer confirmed the report from the dealer. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 49,000.

Check engine light turned on after the whole car rumbled and seemed to struggle to start. Took car into dealership to get code checked out and it was a misfire. We made the next available appointment at the dealership which was over a month later, but were told to not bring in the car again unless another misfire happened before the appointment. More misfires started occuring and more frequently about 2 weeks later, since the dealership had no availability, I brought the car into my own mechanic who told us it was a coolant leak into cylinders 2 and 4 causing the misfires, it was most likely a head gasket issue. Finally brought it to the dealer appointment who went radio silent unless we called for almost a week. They intially stated that Ford would cover the costs since its a known issue with the engine in this model and year, but they didn't initially take a photo when they reproduced the coolant leak and had trouble reproducing it again. They eventually reproduced the coolant leak but back tracked that Ford would cover the costs of the known issue, since it was past the 5 year warranty. The codes were P0302, P0304, P0316, which were misfire in cylinder 2, misfire in cylinder 4 and random misfire. The cause is a known head gasket problem with the engine, and that Ford did not recommend a head gasket replacement but a brand new engine due to known issues with the 2.0L 4 cylinder engine. Our car has under 50,000 miles on it, however it is past the 5 year warranty period as stated earlier, so Ford won't help cover any repairs with their known defect in their engine. The contact stated that the actual vehicle mileage was approximately 49,375 when the incident occurred.

The contact owns a 2016 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the check engine warning light illuminated.

The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and advised the contact to file a complaint with the NHTSA Hotline. The failure mileage was approximately 80,000.

Misfire in cynlinder 2 due to coolant leak and crack in engine. Resulting in new engine over 9000$ dollars and ford ignoring issue despite thousands of complaints and similar defects with this model.

Check engine light came on. Started to misfire when ignition was turned on. Some misfiring when driving. A couple days later, white smoke started coming out of the exhaust. Took car to mechanic who told me I had a crack in the engine block and coolant was leaking into the cylinder. The engine had to be replaced.

I bought a new 2016 Ford Edge and have it serviced regularly at the dealer. My service record is exemplary and it is documented. My car has 94K miles. I have had work done by the dealer recently (new tires, new axle) and there was no advisement of an engine issue, absolutely nothing was said. About 7 days ago I got a warning light out of the blue, and took it in immediately. I was told it was a "catastrophic engine failure" due to coolant leaking into the engine because the coolant pump failed. I was told "it just happens." As I researched this on the web I discovered that there are thousands (possibly tens of thousands, the amount on the web is overwhelming) of people with the same catastrophe and outcomes that were all very similar: engine replacements cost 10K and can take months -- one fellow has been without his car for seven months. That is not an option for me. Frankly I am shocked at The Ford Motor Company and I mean that. What are they thinking???There is a Ford truck engine in that car and it should not be failing at 94K, especially after my record of service and especially after this problem has been known for years. I'm not kidding -- this car is 5 years old and looks 5 months old. I need resolution and I need it quickly and I am not encouraged by the reports I see. My issue is not with my dealer, it is with Ford dragging their heels on a solution. I am at my wit's end.

The manufacturer was notified of the failure and the contact was informed to call the NHTSA Hotline. The failure mileage was approximately 115,098.

There is a known problem with coolant leaking into the cylinder damaging the gasket. The only fix is to replace the entire engine block at a cost (in my case) of $8361. This seems unreasonable of a 6 year old car with 64,000 miles on it. This is a known problem to Ford as evidenced by the necessity of Techical Service Bulletin 19-2208 issued by Ford in June 2019. Fortunately, My engine light came on alerting me to the problem. That apparently doesn’t always happen meaning the engine could have stopped working while I was driving. Ford dealers are still selling these vehicles used on their lots with no need to disclose this problem because no recall has been ordered. Hoping that this can be rectified to help out a significant number of drivers who’ve had to fix their vehicles at a substantial cost and to force Ford to stop selling them used without repair

On May 13, 2022, my Ford Edge was taken to the Local Ford Dealer for a spoiled coil. At 52,000 miles, the coolant had leaked into the cylinders and caused the engine block to crack. This resulted in me needing a whole new engine. Thankfully, I had taken out an extended warranty on my vehicle or it would have cost me over $7500. I was told by the dealership that this is a known problem with these Ecoboost engines. I have always taken excellent care of my ford edge and I cannot believe Ford has not been made to recall these engines. Most people don't have an extended warranty and they should not have to pay thousands of dollars for an obvious faulty engine.

The flex plate is cracked on my Ford Edge. The crack could have caused it to break completely and I would have lost control of the vehicle. The problem has been confirmed by an independent service center. There was no warning lights or messages displayed; just a loud knocking noise coming from the engine.

The contact owns a 2016 Ford Edge. The contact stated while attempting to start the vehicle, the vehicle failed to start properly for a few seconds. The contact stated that there was an abnormal fuel odor inside the cabin of the vehicle. The contact stated no warning light was illuminated. The contact stated she continued to experience the failure until August 10, 2022, when the check engine warning light illuminated. The contact took the vehicle to an independent mechanic who associated the failure with TSB: 14-0180 & 19-2346. The contact called the local dealer and left a voicemail. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 74,350.

Engine blown due to coolant leaking inside the engine.

At first inspection I was told it was a blown head gasket due to coolant leaking in motor. When taken apart the big block is cracked. Is going to be a entire motor replacement. Car only has 91,447 and has had regular services.

The contact owns a 2016 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while starting the vehicle there was an abnormal amount of white smoke coming from the exhaust tip. The contact stated that after commencing driving, the smoke would dissipate. The contact stated no warning light was illuminated. The contact had taken the vehicle to an independent mechanic, where the vehicle was diagnosed with coolant intruding into the cylinders. The mechanic determined that the engine needed to be replaced. The was not repaired. The manufacturer had been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 173,000.

The contact owns a 2016 Ford Edge. The contact stated that the check engine warning light was illuminated. The contact took the vehicle to the local dealer, where it was diagnosed with coolant leaking into cylinder #4. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer had been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 40,000.

Car has over 89000 miles and maintained regularly. I am the only owner and kept in garage. Check engine light came on which had a code of P0302, P0303, P0304. Mechanic confirmed coolant has leaked into cylinder and has caused crack with his borescope. Only fix is an entire engine replacement. I have no alternative but to get replacement car. This has cost me thousands in unplanned expenses to purchase a replacement before I am ready and the lost value on my vehicle due to this issue. This has apparently been known for years and no communications from Ford on this was ever received. I find this unacceptable for a company to allow this defect to go ignored.

The contact owns a 2016 Ford Edge. The contact stated while driving approximately 30 MPH and slowing down, the engine then began to idle roughly while stopped at a traffic signal. The contact stated that the check engine warning light was illuminated. The contact had taken the vehicle to a local dealer who diagnosed that there was coolant in the cylinders. The contact was informed that the engine needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer had been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 100,000.

Vehicle light came on and said cylinder 1 misfire. Had spark plugs changed. Had coil packs changed and neither fixed. When took to be checked out, head gasket blown.

The contact owns a 2016 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the check engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed with coolant intrusion into one of the cylinders. The dealer informed the contact that the engine needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and advised the contact to file a complaint with NHTSA. The failure mileage was 56,059.

I noticed my coolant level was roughly an inch below the minimum line on 6/25/22. I filled my coolant to the max line. My check engine light appeared 6/28/22 for cylinder 2 misfire. I replaced all 4 spark plugs and the coil for #2, and the error message was still reading after the parts were swapped, while the vehicle was off. A few days later I noticed my coolant was again an inch below the minimum line, so I refilled my coolant (refilled roughly 5 times until today, 7/21/22). It always dropped and held to an inch below the minimum line. My check engine light reappeared on 7/12/22 so I took vehicle for diagnostics 7/21/22 at Inver Grove Ford, MN 55087. Tech confirmed vehicle is still misfiring for cylinder #2 so they removed the coil and smelled coolant entering the combustion area, leading them to insert a camera and saw coolant in #2 and #3. They recommended a total new engine (assuming one with a long block to avoid this issue again in the future), for $9,150.00. My vehicle is 6 years old with less than 100k in miles. The dealership informed me this is an issue Ford is aware of, they have put out a Technical Service Bulletin (19-2139) but are unwilling to fix this issue for customers. The tech informed they have since redesigned the engine so this fault is less likely in newer models. I was unaware of this common issue until my check engine light came on and brought it to a dealership. This poses a great danger as with low levels of coolant “localized overheating of the engine cylinder head may cause the cylinder head to crack, causing a pressurized oil leak that may result in a fire in the engine compartment.” (Recall 17S09). The current issues people are facing are incredibly similar to previous recalls. It is unsafe for consumers to unknowingly drive a vehicle in which the seller knows has a risk of fault, and has since corrected such fault in later models.

The contact owns a 2016 Ford Edge. The contact stated that the vehicle was unable to start-up as needed. The vehicle was towed to the dealer where it was diagnosed with coolant intrusion into the engine. The dealer informed the contact that the engine needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and informed the contact that the vehicle was out of warranty. The failure mileage was approximately 143,000.

#2 cylinder went bad, car doesn’t want to start and when it does start it shakes until black smoke is finally gone from exhaust and it begins to idle correctly. Dealership says full engine replacement on a 2016 Edge with eco boost with only 134,000 miles on it!!

The contact owns a 2016 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while the vehicle was at an independent mechanic for an oil change, the mechanic diagnosed that there was a coolant leak in cylinder #1, and the engine needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 83,000.

2016 Ford Edge had engine light come on. Ford dealer found coolant in engine and I was told by Ford dealer it was a misfire in engine cylinder 4 and that I would need a new engine and it would be a $7300-$7500 repair. Later, I found class action lawsuit regarding this issue. Asked Ford for financial help and they denied my request. I haven't decided if I will fix this issue at this time.

The contact owns a 2016 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while the vehicle was stationary, there was an abnormal rattling sound coming from the engine. There was no warning light illuminated. The failure persisted and the contact took the vehicle to the dealer who diagnosed the vehicle with a defective flex plate. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and referred the contact to the NHTSA for assistance. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 103,000.

In 2018 I bought my 2016 Ford Edge which had 60,000 miles on it. I bought the extended warranty plan. I drove it for approximately 30 days and I started having issues with it losing coolant and smoking. I took it back to the dealership and was told it needed a new motor, so they put a new motor in it. Well, I just notice recently that the check engine light comes on (misfire in #2 cylinder ). it was smoking and using coolant. this was the same thing it did in 2018 when they replaced it then. So I took it back to the same place that replaced the motor in 2018 and I just found out on 6/23/2022 that my 2016 Ford Edge needs an engine. Coolant is leaking into #2Cylinder. My car is out of the extended warranty. I need help something is not right with theses motors. The estimate to replace it is $5000 - $6000. There needs to be a recall on this issue.

The contact owns a 2016 Ford Edge. The contact stated while driving approximately 25 MPH, the check engine warning light illuminated. The contact took the vehicle to the dealer who diagnosed the vehicle and determined a failure with the spark plugs. The spark plugs were replaced; however, the failure reoccurred. The contact then took the vehicle back to the dealer who diagnosed the vehicle and determined that coolant was leaking into the engine. The dealer informed the contact that the vehicle was not included in an unknown recall. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 92,000.

May 31, 2022 My check-engine light came on a few days earlier. I took it in to my automotive repair shop for a diagnostic to determine the issue. It was determined that cylinder #4 was misfiring. The coil was identified as faulty and replaced. Diagnostic cost: $149.99 Replacement coil parts and labor: $163.75 June 2, 2022 Check-engine light comes on again. automotive repair shop replaces the spark plug in cylinder #4 as a precaution, even though the spark plugs were less than a year old. No charge. June 6, 2022 Check-engine light comes on again. This time I mentioned to the mechanic that the car briefly misfires after it sits overnight. I could also smell a coolant odor. This was their “ah-hah” moment. They removed the plug from cylinder #4, pressurized the coolant system and noticed coolant leaking into the cylinder. A phone call to Ford confirmed that this was an issue and the only repair; engine replacement. June 7, 2022 – June 17, 2022 The engine was replaced. Total cost: $6,543.59 While I waited, I scoured the Internet and did some research into this issue. I found that I am not the only one who has had this problem. This is an issue with the Ford 2.0 Liter Turbocharged engine, even at miles much less than my 121,958.

Ford Edge (2016) was experiencing a loud ticking/knocking noise during idling and after startup. A short period after the noise started the vehicle became disabled completely on the roadway. The vehicle is out of the five-year warranty period by a year, but still within the mileage period (currently has 46,700 miles, with the limit being 50,000). The 2017 model of the same vehicle has a recall for the same issue, but Ford is not acknowledging the issue for 2016 models.

The contact owns a 2016 Ford Edge. The contact stated after starting the vehicle, the vehicle was vibrating while the check engine warning light was illuminated continuously. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where the cause of the failure was not yet determined. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact mentioned that while depressing the accelerator pedal, the vehicle was vibrating, the vehicle failed to accelerate and the vehicle lost motive power. The vehicle was able to be restarted. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that coolant was leaking and the engine needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 84,000.

Not having the vehicle for that long, I came across the check engine light that went off. The code that mechanics pulled was a misfire in a cylinder. I thought this would be an easy fix of spark plugs and plug wires. This was not the case. I spent $200 at a mechanic shop that said it was a fuel injector problem. This did not fix it because they would clear the code and it came back. They did further research and found out there is a Technical service bulletin report. TSB 19-2346. I took it to Ford and they gave me the print up of what needed to be repaired. Cost over six thousand dollars to repair. I was wondering why I had to buy coolant at one point as the level would drop. It was leaking into the cylinder. I would get the white smoke coming from my exhaust as well. My safety issue was that it would overheat and possibly catch fire from other cases I heard. The dealership confirmed the issue and they are well aware of the problem since 2019.

The contact owns a 2016 Ford Edge. The contact stated while starting the vehicle, the vehicle failed to start smoothly and started rough. The check engine warning light illuminated. The contact stated that the failure occurred intermittently. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who informed the contact that they could not replicate the failure. However, upon opening the hood, the independent mechanic diagnosed that the spark plugs were corroded, the engine block was fractured and leaking antifreeze, causing damage to the engine. The independent mechanic diagnosed that the engine needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The dealer was notified of the failure and confirmed the diagnostic test result. The contact referenced Ford Technical Service Bulletin Number: 19-2346. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and referred the contact to the NHTSA. The vehicle was not repaired.

The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 94,492.

I had a engine warning light come on so I knew about the one recall for brake lines so I took my vehicle to a Ford dealership in Murfreesboro to fix the recall and to find out why the engine warning light came on, so they gave me a ride home. They asked me to leave my vehicle so these 2 things could be completed and checked out. 2 days had gone by and they finally call to tell me, my car was ready so I got a ride to the dealership to find out what was going on! One of the employees said recall was completed but he said my engine would need to be replaced, because coolant was coming through a cylinder and going into my engine and it would cost me $8,700.00 to fix!! Now mind you I have only had my car for 2 yrs! I’m disabled and need my car for my doctors appointments! I’m still paying on my car and I have to carry full coverage insurance because it’s financed!! So he told me I could mess my vehicle up further if I continue to drive it this way, so the vehicle is sitting in front of our house and I have not driven it since! My complaint # 1145819! I’m widowed so I have to rely on my children to take me where I need to go, which is a big inconvenience for us all! My sister had the same EXACT problem with her 2016 Escape and it was recalled, why not my 2016 Edge, it’s doing the EXACT same thing just different models! Please help me I’m paying on my auto which is financed and full coverage insurance on a vehicle that doesn’t run!! I need my vehicle very badly, can we trade vehicles?

Coolant leaking into combustion chamber causes check engine light to come on. Dealer says requires a new engine. Is so prevalent they told me what was wrong before even looking at it. Ford refuses to do a recall and fix the issue. Instead, they charge you for repair. Warranty expired 1 month prior.

Engine went out last year and now this year it sounds like the flex plate and potentially the flywheel are cracked and need to be replaced. I am concerned that it was broken or was affected when my engine went out or was not balanced correctly.

The contact's wife owns a 2016 Ford Edge. The contact stated that the vehicle was leaking coolant. The contact also stated that the vehicle would shake and hesitate upon the depression of the accelerator pedal with the check engine light illuminated. The contact then used a code reader and discovered that there was a misfire on cylinder 3 due to coolant leaking into that cylinder.

The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 70,000.

Engine failure at less than 35,000 miles. Loosing coolant into cyclinder#2 misfire. Known issue by Ford, yet no recall or recourse for owners out of warranty.

The engine has a manufacturer's defect under Technical Service Bulletin 19-2208. Coolant is entering the cylinders. Personal safety is compromised because the engine can fail at any moment. Navigating safely through traffic with an engine fail and then being stranded on the freeway (at night in freezing cold temperatures) is a serious hazard. The problem has been confirmed by a few mechanics. Also, Ford Motor Company issued a TSB 19-2208 detailing this problem for the vehicle. Mysteriously, this TSB has suddenly disappeared but I have a pdf of their advisory detailing the defect. Ford Motor Company requested the vehicle be inspected by a certified dealership, who confirmed the problem. Ford is acknowledging the original engine manufacturer's defect. Mechanics report this is not a wear-and-tear issue. An engine warning light was the first indication of the problem. The problem appeared just after the manufacturer's 100k mile/5yr warranty expired. The vehicle has 105k miles. The vehicle was 3 months past the warranty when Ford was first contacted and notified of the problem. I have been in contact with Ford Motor Company for a couple of months trying to fix this problem. They are now refusing to discuss anything about the issue. Originally, they acknowledged the issue and their TSB proves they were aware of it even to the point of detailing the procedure for diagnostics and repair. Ford also previously reimbursed full expenses for the repair of their defective engine. Now it seems they are trying to cover it up trying to make it disappear, maybe so it does not get listed as a recall? The vehicle is a hazard to drive for my 80 year old mother who still works, but she has no other choice. I am seeing reports of this same engine fail online by other owners.

On 12-25-2021 I was driving my 2016 Ford Edge Titanium andthe check engine light came on. I took the car to a Ford dealer , they said they could not look at it till Momnday12-28-2021 they checked it out and told me the engine coolant leaked into the engine causing the engine to be replaced. They said they would run a compression check just to make sure. After waiting 1/2 a day, they told me yes, the engine had to be replaced the gasket was defective and caused the engine coolant to leak into the engine. The car has 56,400 miles and they told me to call Ford and maybe they would replace or give me some help on the cost. I called Ford and they told me car was out of warranty(which i knew) and they would do nothing. I am now on the hook for a bill for approx. $7,000. On the internet I found more than 72 complaints of the same thing happening and again Ford would do nothing. I was lucky I was not on a trip and got stranded out in the middle of no where. I feel it is Fords responsibility to see that this problem is taken care of. I do not understand why there has not been a recall on this problem,Why? If your engine stops running out on the highway you could be in for a grave accident. I know there is a Class Action lawsuit pending and like many big lawsuits they can take years to be resolved and who makes the money? the lawyers and then there will not be enough money left to pay back all these people who had to put out thousands to replace these motors. If the consumer wins there will probably be made some deal which will help Ford and the lawyers and then there will not be money left to help the consumer. Why don't you make a recall on this problem?

2018 Ford Edge Driving it Friday Dec 24th. Check engine light came on took it to Ford Dealer they said they could not get me in till Monday. Took in Monday Morning about a hour later they told me that the engine coolant leaked into the engine causing the engine to be replaced. They said they would run a Compression check just to make sure. Called this morning 12-28-2021 and said yes the engine had to be replaced the car has 56,400 miles and they told me to call Ford and maybe they would replace or give me some help Called Ford and they said Car is out of Warranty and they would do nothing. I am on the hook for approx $7,000.Checked on internet and found 72 complaints about the same problem. But yet there is no safety recall, Why? I was lucky I was in town , what if I had been on a trip. I feeel it is Fords responsibility to see that this problem is taken care of. I also read there was a Class Action Law Suit for this issue, I cannot find it on the internet I thought it would be on your website.

Had a check engine light come on saying misfire in cylinder 4, had the spark plug replace, check engine light came back on a week later. Took it to a Ford dealership & said the long engine block needed replaced due to coolant leaking into the cylinder.

My engine coolant got in one of engine coils causing engine to need to be replaced. There is a class action suit against Ford for this issue in the Edge.

I had to have the engine replaced because coolant was leaking in cylinder 2.

A check engine light came on, I called Ford, told them what it was and took the earliest appointment was over a week away which they said was fine since it was just the regular check light. I Five days before the appointment, I started my car (push button), it didn't start, so I took my foot off the brake, waited a minute, put my foot back on the brake and tried starting it again, the car started but smoke started pouring out of the back of the car and the engine died. I had it towed to Ford and they said that coolant got into the fourth cylinder which ruined the engine, requiring an entirely new engine ($7000) on a six year old car Safety was put at risk because if this happened while I was driving instead of parked this could have caused a serious accident. This is a common problem among this model of car (and some other, similar models from Ford).

After a little over 5 years and 41000 Miles engine needs replacement due to coolant issue which is a very common problem according to many posts online.

Engine. Engine started to leak coolant into #2 cylinder engine was miss firing and stalled. upon having inspection done by local mechanic per Ford's service bulletin was needing a long block replacement. If this unit was 1 year newer would have been under warranty. this stinks there is apparently a problem and I bought a used vehicle with a 60000 mile warranty and next year had a 100000 mile warranty. Ford knew something.

experience coolant seeping into cylinders. Causing the engine to misfire. Ford says needs the new redesigned cylinder block at the cost of 8000. This seems to be an ongoing issue with the 4 cylinder engines with vehicles.

On 7/27/21 I was on vacation in southern VT. After shopping I started the car up to wait for friends & family to get back so we could return to where we were staying. After about 5 minutes I was about to pull onto the street when my car’s warning system activated that Coolant Is Over Temperature. The temperature gauge was all the way in the red zone. After shutting the car down for about 15 minutes the temperature came down & I drove the car to a nearby garage so they could assess. The next morning they reported smoke came out of tailpipes as well as coolant. The car was towed from there to Ford of Greenfield where they found coolant in the spark plugs. The engine needed to be replaced due to this serious defect. The safety issue is this situation could have been much worse had we been driving in an area where there were higher speeds and significant traffic. This crack in the engine has caused worse issues (I’ve heard of fire in some instances, luckily not this one).

For 2 months, now, when I fill my gas tank, the vehicle fails to start. After several attempts it chugs then fires up. 2 days ago it started to make a strange humming noise that would last about 5 seconds then stop about 3-4, then come back. Sometimes the hum lasted longer. Happened for a good 5 miles. Then, as I’m driving, the engine starts choking and the rpm gauge is bouncing. Then it sounded like it wanted to shut off so I immediately pulled over. I called a local Ford dealership. I took it there and the garage manager says it sounds like a fuel pump and scheduled me to come in this week for a diagnostic or code check. Didn’t say it wasn’t safe to drive.

Check engine light came on while driving vehicle, checked at autozone on 6/14 and the report tool indicated #2 piston misfire, brought to tires plus and had 2 coils and four spark plugs replaced, issues persisted with overheating and stalling, brought into another mechanic who said to take it to a Ford dealership to identify computer error code, brought the vehicle in on 8/13 and was told there was coolant leaking into the engine and it was a known malfunction and the long block would need to be replaced.

The contact owns a 2016 Ford Edge. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 20V469000 (Service Brakes, Service Brakes, Hydraulic). The contact took the vehicle to the local dealer and the vehicle was repaired. The contact stated the following day the check engine warning light was illuminated. The contact took the vehicle to Five Star Ford of Warner Robins (900 Russell Pkwy, Warner Robins, GA 31088, (478) 273-8151) to be repaired however, the vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 56,000.

as I was driving to work on i95N near Springfield, VA, the "coolant high temperature" warning light illuminated on my dashboard. as I was in rush hour traffic, I slowed down and moved right to diagnose the issue. i was able to exit the highway and immediately enter the lot of Sheehy Ford, Springfield VA. The dealer inspected my vehicle while I obtained a ride to work, then called me later to explain the issue. Their testing revealed error code P0301. the service advisor told me that Ford TSB 19-2346 "coolant intrusion into long block" was the issue and the recommended repair is to replace the engine. I called Ford customer service and was advised that there was no recall for this known problem and that my car was out of warranty (@70K miles). as such, Ford would not cover any of the repair expense. The Ford dealer has ordered a new engine and advised me that it will cost $7500 for parts and service. I can ask them to keep the engine for inspection, but I need to know soon. Safety was put at risk by an unforeseen issue without advance notice or warning that occurred in heavy traffic at high speed. In retrospect, I did notice excess exhaust from the vehicle prior to the incident and some difficulty starting, but there no other warning. This occurred less than 30 minutes prior to the warning light activation.

Engine coolant leak resulting in thick, white exhaust, rough idling upon start, and engine overheating.

So about 3 weeks ago on Tuesday my check engine light came on my 2016 ford edge and the car was stuttering. The following day Wednesday I took it to my mechanic and they said it's a cylinder 2 misfire and replaced my spark plugs then 4 days later Sunday my check engine light came back on I could go no faster then 40mph. Had to wait till July 6th to bring it to my Ford dealership Steven's Ford in milford ct where they found I had coolant leaking into my engine which is a know Ford issue with there 2015- 2018 eco boost engines and the only repair they have is to replace the engine with a new one because a reman engine would have the same problem and the reason I could not drive my car above 40 mph is because it was only running on 3 cylinders

Engine light on, coolant bubbling in reservoir, presence of coolant in cylinder, chemical head gasket test failed, vehicle needs new engine.

The scan revealed P0316 misfire on startup and P0301 cylinder 1misfire. It was discovered that the top of the cylinder 1 piston appears to be "washed" which happens when fuel is not ignited during the combustion process. This confirms the constant "toping off" of the engine coolant, which indicates a coolant leak in cylinder number 1. This diagnosis was from Christian Brothers Automotive, Acworth, Ga.

This vehicle has a design flaw within the engine. The engine and head gasket had a leak that caused the vehicle cylinder to fill with engine coolant, and caused the vehicle to unexpectedly misfire, overheat, and stall. I have also read accounts of other individuals vehicles catching fire. Thankfully this has not happened with my vehicle, however, it did stall out in the middle of the road during rush hour. As a result it was taken to FORD and they informed me that the entire engine would need to be replaced as a result of the failure.

MY 2016 FORD EDGE SEL RECENTLY DISPLAYED A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND THE VEHICLE WAS LOOSING COOLANT WITHOUT LEAKAGE UNDER VEHICLE. THE ERROR CODE PRESENTED WAS P0304. UPON PRESSURE TESTING COOLANT WAS FOUND TO BE LEAKING INTO THE 4TH CYLINDER, AND CAUSING A MISFIRE. THE VEHICLE IS LESS THAN 5 YEARS OLD AND FORD IS CLAIMING THE ONLY SOLUTION IS A COMPLETE ENGINE REPLACEMENT FOR MORE THAN 7K.

2016 EDGE BOUGHT 10/16 59,000 MILES APPROXIMATELY. THE ENGINE OVER HEATING LIGHT CAME ON ENGINE IDLING POORLY TOOK INTO DEALER FOR DIAGNOSIS. VEHICLE NEEDS A MOTOR. IT'S SITTING IN DEALER NOW FOR OVER 30 DAYS ENGINE ON BACK ORDER. BASED ON NUMBER OF BOUGHT IN OCTOBER 2016 EDGE 59,000 MILES OVER HEAT LIGHT ON TOOK TO FORD DEALER FORD IS SLOWLY TAKING CARE OF THE PROBLEM. I WOULD SAY BESIDE WAITING 6- 8 WEEKS TO GET VEHICLE FIXED UNDER WARRANTY WHO WILL REIMBURSED FOR DEVALUATION OF A KNOWN PROBLEM ON MY VEHICLE.

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT APPEARED. THE 2016 FORD EDGE BROUGHT IN TO CHECK AFTER NO PARTICULAR COOLANT PROBLEM DIAGNOSED THE CAR WAS BROUGHT IN AGAIN WHEN IT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH A COOLANT LEAKING INTO THE ENGINE . REPLACEMENT COST $8250. AFTER EXTENSIVE NEGOTIATING WITH FORD THEY OFFERED A %55 HELP OF $4590. THIS LEAVES ME WITH &3660 COST TO FIX AN ENGINE ON A CAR THE I STILL OWE$9880. AS A RETIRED COUPLE BUYING IN GOOD FAITH A BRAND NEW CAR VALUED AT $40000 AND EXPECTING IT TO LAST FOR MANY MANY YEARS. THIS LONG STANDING PROBLEM WITH THIS FORD ENGINE SHOULD BE RECALLED AND NOT CAUSE SUCH WORRY AND STRESS FOR THE GOOD FAITH CONSUMERS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT WHO IS AN AUTO DEALER, TOOK THE VEHICLE TO INTEGRITY AUTO (1031 9TH AVENUE SE WATERTOWN, SD 57201, (605) 878-2277) TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE ENGINE BLOCK WAS FRACTURED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 62,816. THE VIN WAS INVALID.

ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATES. DIAGNOSTICS WILL INDICATE MISFIRE. CHANGE PLUGS AND COIL PACK. LIGHT WILL AGAIN ILLUMINATE AFTER A FEW MILES. FOUND THE BLOCK TO HAVING HAIRLINE CRACKS; ALLOWING WATER IN THE CYLINDER CAUSING MISFIRE. THIS IS THE 2ND ONE WE PURCHASED WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. INVESTIGATING ONLINE THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM. THERE ARE 45 COMPLAINTS JUST ON ONE SITE WITH ALL THE SAME PROBLEM. THE FIX IS A NEW ENGINE ($3000 TO $5000). FORD KNOWS THIS PROBLEM THAT BEGAN IN 2015 AND CONTINUES TO THIS DAY.

I OWN A 2016 FORD EDGE THAT USE TO BE MY LEASED WORK VEHICLE AND I BOUGHT IT FROM THE COMPANY FOR MY WIFE ON 11/15/2019 WITH 67,696 MILES ON THE ODOMETER. I HAVE NEVER HAD ONE ISSUES WITH THIS CAR AND I HAVE PUT EVERY MILE ON IT FROM WORK UNTIL I BOUGHT IT FROM THE COMPANY/EMKAY LEASE PROGRAM. THE CURRENT MILEAGE AS OF TODAY IS 72,853 MILES AND I HAD IT SERVICED FROM LANDMARK FORD IN PORTLAND OREGON. MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME LAST WEEK ON AND I TOOK THE EDGE IN FOR SERVICE BUT NEEDED TO BRING THE VEHICLE BACK TODAY SO LANDMARK FORD COULD DO A DIAGNOSTICS ON THE VEHICLE. MY WIFE AND MY DAUGHTER DROPPED OFF THE VEHICLE AND HOURS LATER, I WAS NOTIFIED BY CHRIS KELSO AT LANDMARK FORD (503-598-8398) THAT COOLANT WAS GETTING INTO THE ENGINE CYLINDERS AND I WOULD NEED TO REPLACE THE ENGINE FOR CLOSE TO $7000.00. I HAVE DEALT WITH CHRIS FOR YEARS AND HE DOES A GREAT JOB FOR ME AND MY FAMILY. CHRIS MENTIONED THAT THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM WITH EDGES AND A NEW ENGINE IS THE ONLY WAY TO FIX IT. I TOLD CHRIS I CAN'T AFFORD TO REPLACE AN ENGINE ON A VEHICLE I PURCHASED IN NOVEMBER OF 2019, SO WHY WOULDN'T FORD HAVE A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE, IF THEY KNEW ABOUT THE PROBLEM? CHRIS DID NOT HAVE AN ANSWER, WHICH I CAN TELL THAT BOTHERED HIM. I'VE TAKEN GREAT CARE OF THIS FORD EDGE SINCE THE ODOMETER HAD 13 MILES ON IT FOR MY WORK FLEET VEHICLE. I'M CURRENTLY DRIVING A 2019 FORD EDGE FOR MY NEW WORK VEHICLE AND I HAVE BEEN A FORD AND A FORD EDGE FAN BUT THIS NEWS TO REPLACE THE ENGINE IS VERY UNSETTLING TO ME AT THIS TIME IN OUR LIVES. I WOULD REALLY LIKE SOMEONE WITH THE AUTHORITY TO STEP UP AND PROVIDE SOME ASSISTANCE TO HELP ME REPLACE MY ENGINE ON THIS VEHICLE UNDER A CONSUMER RECALL ESPECIALLY AFTER READING ALL THE COMMENTS FOR OTHER EDGE OWNERS PLEASE FORD MOTOR COMPANY POST A RECALL NOTICE FOR THE FAULTY COOLANT LEAKING INTO THE ENGINE.

AT APPROXIMATELY 53,000 MILES, 2.0L I4 ECOBOOST ENGINE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED DUE TO COOLANT LEEK INTO BLOCK - #2 CYLINDER FAILURE. ALTHOUGH COST OF REPAIRS WERE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY, IT TOOK A LOT OF EFFORT TO GET THIS ALL ACCOMPLISHED. BOUGHT THIS CAR BRAND NEW FOR $40,000 AND HAVE HAD ALL MAINTENANCE METICULOUSLY COMPLETED AT LOCAL DEALERSHIP (WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE). WORRIED NOW ABOUT THE DURABILITY OF THE INSTALLED REPLACEMENT ENGINE. THAT ENGINE NOW HAS NEARLY 20,000 MILES ON IT AND IS OUT OF WARRANTY.

MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, CHECKED VEHICLE WITH CODE READER AND CODE P0303 & P0316 SHOWED. WHEN VEHICLE STARTED WHEN COLD, IT WOULD CHUG AND STALL OUT AT TIMES. VEHICLE WAS BROUGHT TO DEALERSHIP. THEY FOUND COOLANT WAS GETTING INTO THE #3 CYLINDER. THEREFORE REQUIRING A NEW LONG BLOCK. WE RESEARCHED TSB19-2346 AND FOUND THE EXACT SYMPTOMS TO WHAT CAUSED MY ENGINE FAILURE,AND THIS GOES FOR ALL 2.0 LITER ECO-BOOST ENGINES. BASICALLY, A FACTORY MATERIAL DEFECT IN HEAD THAT ALLOWED COOLANT TO LEAK INTO CYLINDER BLOCK, WHICH CAN CAUSE ENGINE FAILURE. MY FORD WARRANTY WAS EXPIRED DUE TO MY VEHICLE MILEAGE. MY EXTENDED WARRANTY COMPANY DUE TO WORDING IN CONTRACT WOULD ONLY COVER INTERNAL , LUBRICATED FAILURE OF ENGINE. THE DEALERSHIP DEEMED MY FAILURE TO BE AN EXTERNAL, MATERIAL CAUSE BECAUSE IT CAME FROM THE HEAD. I CALLED FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND THEY HAD NOTHING TO SAY ABOUT IT AND WOULD NOT BACK THEIR PRODUCT. IN THE END, I BELIEVE WITH NO QUESTION THAT THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALL, WHICH IT NEVER WAS. MY VEHICLE HAD AROUND 86,000 MILES AND SHOULD NOT NEED A NEW ENGINE. MY VEHICLE WAS A 2016 FORD EDGE SE, WITH 2.0 LITER ECO-BOOST, THAT I PURCHASED BRAND NEW.

I WAS DRIVING MY SON TO HIS FATHER'S HOUSE AND MY CAR LITERALLY DIED WHILE IT WAS MOVING. THANKFULLY I WAS CLOSE TO THE HOUSE AND WE WERE NOT ON A MAJOR STREET OR HIGHWAY, BUT IT TOOK SEVERAL TIMES FOR IT TO START AGAIN SO THAT WE COULD MOVE IT OUT OF THE WAY. I TOOK THE CAR TO A FORD DEALER AND THERE IS COOLANT LEAKING INTO THE ENGINE AND NOW REQUIRES A NEW LONG ENGINE BLOCK WHICH WILL COST ME ALMOST $7,000 AND AN ADDITIONAL $1,000 FOR A RENTAL CAR, AS I AM A SINGLE MOM. I WAS ON MY WAY TO WORK AND COULD HAVE BEEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN THIS HAPPENED. I'M LUCKY THAT I WASN'T.

2016 FORD EDGE TITANIUM HAD A COOLANT LEAK INTO CYLINDER NUMBER 2. WHITE SMOKE ROUGH IDLING. VEHICLE HAD 64,444 TOTAL MILES. REQUIRED A COMPLETE ENGINE REPLACEMENT AT A COST OF $8217.67

STARTED HAVING WHITE SMOKE. SHEEHY FORD DEALERSHIP TOLD ME I NEEDED A NEW ENGINE DUE TO COOLANT INTRUSION INTO CYLINDER 1. CAR HAS 88,000 MILES AND HAS BEEN CARED FOR EXACTLY AS FORD RECOMMENDS AND MILEAGE WAS ALL HIGHWAY MILEAGE DUE TO MY JOB. COST FOR NEW ENGINE IS $8,000. FOUND OUT ABOUT TSB 19-2346 AFTER RESEARCHING THE DIAGNOSIS. IF I WOULD HAVE KNOW THIS LAST DEC (WHEN IT WAS RELEASED) I COULD HAVE TRADED THE CAR FOR MY NEW TOYOTA. AFTER HOURS AND HOURS OF RESEARCH, I WILL NOW GET RID OF MY 2 FORDS AND GET A RAV 4 AND ANOTHER TACOMA.

MY 2016 FORD EDGE HAD A COOLANT LEAK INTO THE ENGINE WHICH IS A COMMON PROBLEM THAT FORD SENT A BULLETIN OUT ON.THENFORD MOTOR COMPANY REFUSES TO TAKE ACTION FOR A RECALL ON AN OBVIOUSLY FAULTY. ENGINE. HOW CAN THEY BE ALOUD TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THERE'S A HUGE ISSUE WITH THE ENGINES THAT'S COMMON BUT DEY A RECALL. THIS ISSUE IS CAUSING TONS OF FORD EDGE OWNERS EXTREME FINANCIAL STRESS AND WORSE. THIS COMPANY NEEDS TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY. $9,500 ON REPAIRS. AND NOW THE NEW ENGINES DOING THE SAME THING.

ENGINE CYLINDER BLOCK HAS A CRACK THAT IS CAUSING COOLANT INTRUSION INTO CYLINDER #2 POSING EMISSIONS AND OVERHEATING CONCERNS PER DIAGNOSIS FROM FORD DEALERSHIP

ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. ENGINE HAD 112489 MILES. AFTER MUCH BACK AND FORTH IT WAS DETERMINED I NEEDED A NEW ENGINE. AT THAT POINT I TOOK THE CAR TO A FORD DEALERSHIP. AGAIN AFTER MUCH BACK AND FORTH IT WAS DETERMINED THAT I NEED A NEW ENGINE. I CONTACTED FORD, AND THEY WOULD OFFER NO HELP ON THIS. I DID GET A NEW ENGINE AT THE FIRST SERVICE CENTER FOR $6,000.00 I WENT TO. THE FORD DEALERSHIP WAS $1,500.00 MORE. I ALSO FOUND OUT THAT THERE ARE A NUMBER SERCVICE BULLETINS CONCERNING THIS ISSUE, AND YET FORD OFFERED NO HELP. THE LIGHT CAME ON WHEN THE CAR WAS IN MOTION.

BOUGHT A CAR WITH A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. THE DEALER KNEW ABOUT THE LIGHT AND SAID WOULD BE FIXED. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THE FIRST TIME THEY STATED IT HAS A MISFIRE AND CLEARED THE CODE. IF THE LIGHT CAME BACK ON CONTACT THEM TO BRING IT IN FOR FURTHER INSPECTION. THE LIGHT CAME BACK IN WITH MINUTES AFTER DRIVING OFF. THEY STATED THERE'S A COOLANT LEAK GOING INTO THE MOTOR. WHICH CAN CAUSE THE MOTOR TO BLOW UP OR CATCH FIRE. I TRIED T GE THEM TO FIX IT AND THEY GIVE ME COLD SHOULDER SO I ASKED FOR A TRADE FOR EQUITY VALUE OR A REVERSE ON THE LOAN TO GET MY OLD VEHICLE BACK THEY WOULDN'T DO IT.

30 AUG 2020 THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE ENGINE OVERHEATED WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING OR INDICATION. THE DEALERSHIP MECHANIC TOLD ME IT WAS A KNOW ISSUE THAT THE COOLANT LEAKS ALONG THE ENGINE BLOCK. IN MY CASE IT LEAKED INTO THE 3RD CYLINDER AND CAUSED MISFIRES. THE CYLINDER IS CRACKED AND THE ENGINE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. CURRENT MILAGE IS 64000 AND NOT COVERED UNDER THE 60000 MILE WARRANTY.

MY 2016 FORD EDGE STARTED ROUGH STARTING FOR A COUPLE OF WEEKS AND THEN THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. HAD THE CAR SCANNED #2COIL PACK ISSUE. REPLACED SPARK PLUGS. LASTED A WEEK. ENGINE LIGHT BACK ON WITH ROUGH START AND WHEN I WOULD GO FROM A STOP IT WOULD HESITATE. SCANNED AGAIN #2 COIL PACK .REPLACE #2 COIL PACK . LASTED ALMOST A WEEK. ENGINE LIGHT BACK ON SAME PROBLEMS. REPLACED ALL THE COIL PACKS. LASTED 1 DAY. THEN CAR OVERHEATED ON THE HIGHWAY . I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP TO FIND OUT IT NEEDS AN ENGINE. COOLANT IS LEAKING INTO THE #2 CYLINDER. CAR HAS 116,000 MILES AND FORD WILL NOT COVER ANY OF THE REPAIR.

AT 35,000 MILES, WHEN STARTING AND THEN WHILE RUNNING CAR STARTED HESITATING AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. INITIALLY DEALER REPORTED IT WAS A SPARK PLUG AND THEY REPLACED IT ONLY TO HAVE THE SAME ISSUE ARISE TWO DAYS LATER. BACK AT THE DEALER AN ANALYSIS SHOWED THAT A LEAK IN THE COOLING SYSTEM CAUSED FLUID TO ENTER INTO THE 3RD CYLINDER WHICH THEN CRACKED THE ENGINE. 7 WEEKS LATER A NEW ENGINE WAS REPLACED. ONLY GUARANTEED FOR 1 YEAR AND ORIGINAL CAUSE OF ISSUE (DESIGN FLAW) NOT CORRECTED SO LIKELY TO HAPPEN AGAIN WHEN OUT OF WARRANTY. KNOWN TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN ON THIS ISSUE WITH NUMEROUS ENGINE FAILURES AND RE-FAILURES INCLUDING VEHICLE STOPPING WHEN DRIVING.

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON ON MY 2016 FORD EDGE AROUND 60000 MILES. CODE READER INDICATED MISFIRE ON CYL 3. AFTER CHANGING THE SPARK PLUGS AS A POTENTIAL FIX, THE ISSUE CAME BACK. ROUGH IDLES WHEN STARTING BUT USUALLY WOULD GO AWAY AFTER A FEW SECONDS. LAST TIME I WENT TO START IT, WHITE, SWEET SMELLING SMOKE BEGAN POURING OUT OF THE EXHAUST. SHUT OFF THE ENGINE IMMEDIATELY. SEVERAL OTHER DOCUMENTED CASES OF COOLANT LEAKING INTO CYLENDER LEADS ME TO BELIEVE THIS IS A HEAD GASKET OR ANOTHER ENGINE DESTROYING ISSUE. HAVING THE CAR TOWED TO OUR MECHANIC NOW.

VEHICLE ENGINE WARNING LIGHTS COME ON LUCKY TO BE IN FROM A DEALERSHIP THEY SAID THERE WAS A NATIONAL HIGHWAY BULLETIN ABOUT ENGINE, LUCKILY I HAD WARRANTY TOOK 43 WEEKS TO AUTHORIZE ARE AWARE OF A PROBLEM WITH ENGINE

VEHICLE HAS STALLED MULTIPLE TIMES WHILE DRIVING OR STOPPED AT A STOP LIGHT WITHOUT WARNING. "ACCESSORY POWER" REMAINS ON SO LIGHTS, POWER STEERING ETC. THE FIRST TWO TIMES IT HAPPENED I WAS AT A STOP LIGHT AND HAD TO PLACE THE CAR IN PARK TO RESTART THE VEHICLE WHICH TOOK MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS UNTIL THE VEHICLE WOULD REMAIN RUNNING. TODAY THE VEHICLE STALLED WHILE COMING OFF OF A HIGHWAY, I HAD TO PULL OVER MULTIPLE TIMES TO RESTART THE VEHICLE WHEN EVER I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE GAS AS THE VEHICLE WOULD STALL. I BARELY MADE IT TO WORK. I AM WONDERING WHY THERE IS NOT A RECALL ON THE VEHICLE FOR THIS ISSUE AS FORD DID RECALL THE 2017 EDGE FOR SIMILAR PROBLEMS.

THE ENGINE IS LEAKING COOLANT INTO CYLINDER #3. THIS CAUSES THE ENGINE TO OVERHEAT AND WHITE SMOKE TO COME OUT OF THE EXHAUST.

INTERNAL COOLANT LEAK INTO CYLINDER #2 CAUSING MISS FIRE CODE AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. KNOWN ISSUE BY FORD AND RECOMMENDS COMPLETE ENGINE CHANGE AND IS NOT COVERING ANY OF THE COST. *TR

2.0L ECOBOOST, 40,000 MILES, FWD, ENGINE TRIES TO STALL WHEN COMING TO STOP AT TRAFFIC LIGHT, ROUGH IDLE, MAKES GROANING OR THRUMMING SOUND SIMILAR TO HELICOPTER. NO POWER WHEN USING ACCELERATOR, ENGINE OFF THEN ON CLEARS ISSUE. READ P2196 CODE, CLEANED MAF SENSOR, BUT STALLING RETURNED. RANDOM, NOT REGULAR FAILURE, SO NOT ABLE TO RECREATE ON DEMAND. NO FAULT CODE LOGGED MOST RECENT INCIDENT. HAS OCCURRED 4 TIMES OVER LAST MONTH

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS ON, THERE WAS WHITE SMOKE COMING FROM THE EXHAUST PIPE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FORD OF MURFREESBORO (1550 NW BROAD ST, MURFREESBORO, TN 37129 (615) 713-1436) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ENGINE BLOCK WAS FRACTURED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE BUT NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS TAKEN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 72,680.

MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT READ 'CRANK CASE PRESSURE SENSOR' AND WHILE I WAS DRIVING THE 'ADD COOLANT' LIGHT CAME ON AND BEFORE I GOT TO THE NEXT TOWN, THE WARNING LIGHT CAME ON NOTIFYING ME THAT THE ENGINE WAS GOING TO SWITCH INTO THE ENGINE SAVING MODE BEING THAT IT NEEDED MORE COOLANT EMERGENTLY. I USED NEARLY A GALLON OF COOLANT THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS AND BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO A FORD DEALERSHIP" FOR DIAGNOSING AND SERVICING. THEY SAID I HAD A CRACKED BLOCK DUE TO THE FACT THAT THE WATER PUMP IS LOCATED INSIDE THE ENGINE INSTEAD OF OUTSIDE OF THE ENGINE ON THESE VEHICLES WHICH HAS BEEN RAISING HAVOC IN A LOT OF THESE ENGINES BECAUSE IT DOESN'T MAKE THE PROPER SEAL CAUSING A LEAK TO OCCUR AND THE MATERIAL THEY USE FOR THEIR WATER PUMP IS VERY THIN AND OFTEN TIMES CAUSES A LEAK FROM THE COOLANT THAT GOES DIRECTLY INTO THE ENGINE WHICH IT DID IN MY SITUATION AND CAUSE THE ENGINE TO CRACK. IF I HAD BEEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WHEN THIS WOULD'VE HAPPENED IT WOULD'VE BEEN DETRIMENTAL TO MYSELF, MY PASSENGERS AND OTHER PEOPLE ON THE ROAD AT THAT TIME!

HAVE A 2016 FORD EDGE AT ABOUT 64,00 MILES MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT KEPT COMING ON AND OFF, CAR WAS ALSO SPUTTERING WHEN I STARTED IT AND SOUNDS LIKE IT WILL STALL. I KEEP HAVING TO REFILL COOLANT. TOOK IT TO 3 DIFFERENT DEALERS WHO ALL SAID A CODE OF P0302 THEY ALL TOLD ME IT WAS A MANUFACTURE DEFECT OF THE COOLANT PART NOT BEING FLUSH ON THE ENGINE. I FILED A COMPLAINT THROUGH FORD WHO HAS DONE NOTHING FOR ME BECAUSE I'M OUT OF THE MANUFACTURING WARRANTY. THE SERVICE MANAGER INFORMED ME SEVERAL CARS ALL HAVING THE SAME ISSUE BUT UNDER MILEAGE FOR WARRANTY. CAR ISN'T EVEN PAID OFF AND FEEL LIKE I WAS SOLD A LEMON, NOW I NEED A NEW ENGINE AND CAN'T AFFORD ONE! WISH FORD WOULD TAKE BETTER CARE OF THEIR CUSTOMERS!!! MY ENGINE COULD BLOW!!!!!I CAN'T EVEN GET MY CAR SERVICED UNTIL DECEMBER 30TH BECAUSE DEALERSHIP HAS SO MANY CARS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. I HAVE CONTACTED A LEMON LAW LAWYER IN THE HOPES THEY CAN DO SOMETHING FOR ME.

MY CAR HAS STARTED TO SHAKE VERY BADLY, AT LIGHTS, STOP, START, ALL TIMES. COOLANT IS LEAKING INTO THE CYLINDER HEAD CAUSING IT TO MISFIRE CONSTANTLY AND CAUSING THE SHAKES. THIS WAS REPAIRED ONCE ALREADY IN 2017, BUT THE REPAIR HAS FAILED AND IS HAPPENING AGAIN. FORD SAYS I NEED A NEW ENGINE BUT I'M OUTSIDE MY WARRANTY AND THEY ARE NOT WILLING TO COVER THE FULL REPAIR. THEY HAVE A TSB 19-2208 THAT HAS BEEN UPDATED IN JUNE OF 2019 TO CHANGE THE REPAIR FOR CYLINDER REPLACEMENT TO ENGINE REPLACEMENT. THIS ISSUE CAN CAUSE THE CAR TO OVERHEAD AND STALL IF NOT CAUGHT RIGHT AWAY.

SINCE PURCHASED AS A CERTIFIED PRE OWNED, THERE IS ALWAYS A VERY NOTICEABLE CLICKING NOISE FROM THE ENGINE WHEN COLD, AND GRADUALLY QUIETS WHEN WARMED UP... SIMILAR TO A STICKING VALVE LIFTER. THE SERVICING DEALER CHECKED WITH FORD AND SAID THE ENGINEERS ARE WORKING ON THE ISSUE, BUT THERE ARE NO REPAIRS FOR THIS CONDITION AND IT WILL NOT HARM THE ENGINE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT NOTICED AN ABNORMAL EXHAUST ODOR ENTERING THE CABIN OF THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ISSUE WAS MORE PREVALENT WHILE USING THE AIR CONDITIONING UNIT IN THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING AND SOUGHT MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND ADVISED THE CONTACT TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO THE LOCAL DEALER. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 2,066.

DRIVING DOWN A STRAIGHT ROAD AT 50 MPH ON HIGHWAY 41 AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT / WRENCH ICON CAME ON AT THE SAME TIME I HAD LOST ALL POWER TO ENGINE. HAD TO COAST TO SIDE OF ROAD THE CAR WOULD NOT GO ANY FASTER THAN 5 MPH. AFTER STOPPING I TURNED OFF ENGINE AND RESTARTED IT AND IT WOULD NOT IDLE UNDER 2500 RPMS. STOP ENGINE AGAIN IT SEEMED TO BE OK THEN BUT STILL COULD NOT DRIVE ANY FASTER THAN 5 MPH. I ENDED UP CALLING A TOW TRUCK. I THOUGHT AT THE TIME THAT SOMETHING WAS WRONG WITH THE THROTTLE BODY OF THE ENGINE. 1 YEAR OLD FORD WITH 6,287 MILES AND HAD JUST BEEN IN THE SHOP FOR AN OIL CHANGE 2 WEEKS EARLIER. NO RECALL ON IT WAS LISTED PER DEALERSHIP. IF I WAS IN VERY HEAVY TRAFFIC OR RAIN IT COULD OF BEEN REALLY BAD REALLY FAST. THE TOW COMPANY TOWED IT TO THE LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP AND THEY DID SAY IT WAS THE THROTTLE BODY AND THEY WOULD FIX IT UNDER WARRANTY. I THOUGHT FORD HAD FIXED ALREADY. ANYWAY PICKUP CAR ON WEDNESDAY 5.31. HOPE IT IT FIXED NOW...

I WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING LOT AND THE ENGINE STALLED. I WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE ENGINE

STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT IN 2016 FORD EDGE. WHEN LIGHT TURNED GREEN, ATTEMPTED TO MAKE LEFT TURN. VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE THROUGH THE INTERSECTION AND APPEARED TO STALL. TURNED VEHICLE OFF, RESTARTED AND AGAIN VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. WITH VEHICLE BARELY MOVING, WAS ABLE TO GET OUT OF WAY OF THREE LANES OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC BUT NOW STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION. WHEN TRAFFIC CLEARED, WAS ABLE TO MAKE LEFT TURN AND CRAWLED AT ABOUT 2-3MPH WITH HAZARD LIGHTS ON. AT THIS TIME, WRENCH YELLOW WARNING LIGHT WAS DISPLAYED. DROVE AT THAT EXTREMELY SLOW SPEED UNTIL REACHED THE LEFT TURN LANE AT THE NEXT INTERSECTION WHERE COULD SAFELY PULL OVER AND PARK. TRIED SEVERAL TIMES TO RESTART BUT CONTINUED TO RECEIVE WRENCH WARNING LIGHT. THAT WAS THEN REPLACED WITH A CHECK ENGINE YELLOW WARNING LIGHT. VEHICLE WOULD STILL NOT ACCELERATE. VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO DEALER. AN EEC TEST WAS RUN AND HAD CODE P2111. THE THROTTLE BODY WAS REPLACED WITH PART AT4Z-9E926-B. THIS WAS UNDER WARRANTY SINCE JUST 17,276 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. IT IS UNNERVING WHEN GAS PEDAL COULD BE PUSHED ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND STILL BARELY MOVE. THIS INCIDENT WAS VERY SCARY AND FORTUNATE VEHICLE WAS NOT HIT AND THERE WERE NO INJURIES.

WHILE DRIVING ON RTE. 95 AT A HIGH SPEED, THE VEHICLE WITHOUT WARNING JUST STOPPED. THE NEXT DAY WHILE DRIVING ON A STREET ABOUT 40 MILES PER HOUR, THE ENGINE STOPPED WITHOUT WARNING. *TR

WHILE DRIVING AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED (70MPH) ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY, MY CAR LOST POWER. I TRIED PRESSING THE GAS PEDAL, BUT THERE WAS NO RESPONSE. IT WAS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION, SINCE THE CARE LOST SPEED QUICKLY, AND I WAS DRIVING IN THE FAR LEFT LANE AND HAD TO NAVIGATE TO THE RIGHT SHOULDER IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC. IT WAS ALSO VERY DANGEROUS BECAUSE THE CAR BROKE DOWN IN DETROIT. I WAS ABLE TO GET TO THE SHOULDER, AND RESTART THE VEHICLE TO TRY TO GET OFF THE HIGHWAY. WHILE TRYING TO GET TO A BETTER LOCATION, THE CAR LOST POWER TWO MORE TIMES, WHILE IN STREET TRAFFIC. AGAIN, VERY DANGEROUS. SINCE THIS IS A BRAND NEW FORD EDGE (2016), WITH UNDER 10,000 MILES, IT WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, WHO FOUND A DEFECTIVE THROTTLE BODY ASSEMBLY. THEY REPLACED THE THROTTLE BODY ASSEMBLY, AND BECAUSE THERE IS STILL NO RECALL ON THAT PART, IT COULD VERY WELL HAVE BEEN REPLACED WITH ANOTHER DEFECTIVE PART, LEAVING ME AT RISK AGAIN FOR INJURY, OR WORSE. WHILE INVESTIGATING THE ISSUE, I FOUND THAT SEVERAL OTHER PEOPLE HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME ISSUE, DATING BACK TO OVER A YEAR AGO.
