Transmission & drivetrainEngine & cooling

I was going about 80 on the interstate and it just started to lurch and hard shift until I took the next exit. Got up to a stoplight went to go. The engine kept revving, but the car would not move. Had trouble shifting did another hard shift finally got it to drive and got home even though it was grinding and retching the whole time which would've been about another 2 miles and then I went to back into my parking spot at home and the car would not move. It would not go forward. It would not go backwards. I couldn't...

put it in neutral and push it. It just would not shift gears no matter what I did I've had my insurance tow it to the Ford dealership. They called me back a couple days later saying that there was catastrophic failure in the transmission the driver solenoid or the drive, solenoid, neutral, solenoid, and reverse solenoid. We're all gone and there's a bunch of metal in spots where there should be fluid and quoted me 13 grand for a transmission.

My 2022 Ford Edge (approximately 97,000 miles) experiences a persistent shuddering condition that is most noticeable at speeds below 60 mph. The shudder can be felt through the vehicle and is sometimes perceived as an engine misfire. There are no warning lights or diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) present. This condition matches exactly the symptoms described in Ford Technical Service Bulletin 25-2154 (Torque Converter Shudder, issued May 5, 2025), which applies to 2019-2022 Ford Edge vehicles equipped with the 8F35...

transmission built on or before June 30, 2022. Ford has also issued Customer Satisfaction Program 25L02 related to the Transmission Control Assembly on this same platform. Despite Ford formally acknowledging this issue through both a TSB and a CSP, no repair has been offered to me at no cost, and my vehicle remains unrepaired. I am concerned that Ford's response has been inadequate given the known nature of this defect. I am submitting this complaint to create an official record and to request that NHTSA investigate whether a safety recall is warranted for this known transmission issue affecting 2019-2022 Ford Edge vehicles.

To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally report an ongoing and concerning issue with my 2022 Ford Edge. My vehicle has begun hesitating when pressing the accelerator and jerking between 20 mph and 40 mph. Some days the issue is worse than others, but it has progressively made the vehicle feel unreliable and unsafe to drive. At times, it feels as though the vehicle may break down while in motion. After researching this issue, I have found that many other Ford Edge owners are experiencing the same symptoms,...

with the torque converter frequently identified as the cause. This appears to be a widespread and recurring problem rather than an isolated incident. Additionally, the vehicle will coast between approximately 2,000 and 5,000$. This behavior is not normal and raises serious concerns regarding drivability, safety, and long-term damage to the transmission. Given how common this issue appears to be among Ford Edge vehicles, I strongly believe this warrants further investigation and the establishment of a recall. Owners should not be financially responsible for a known and recurring manufacturing defect. I am requesting that Ford address this issue promptly and take responsibility for repairs associated with this problem. I appreciate your time and look forward to a resolution. Sincerely, [[redacted]] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

To be told it will be about 8000 to replace the transmission

While driving at a slower speed between 20-40 mph the car will have a power surge as my mechanic called it. The RPMS constantly bounce while driving. It is hesitant to accelerate and is riding rough at a low speed. This is a risk while speeding up in traffic or merging onto the interstate the car is hesitant and can't keep up with traffic which could cause a bad wreck. I had my vehicle at my local mechanic yesterday. It goes to my local ford dealer for inspection next week and they also told me they've had...
