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

I literally financed a 2019 Ford Edge with 88k miles on [XXX] from SUTTON FORD in Matteson IL. I didn’t even have the car 5 hours and the transmission started having serious shifting issues and almost caused me to get in a crack with my son in the car. Took it back to SUTTON FORD and they are telling me the transmission is bad and needs to be replaced. I think this is a problem considering how long I’ve had them vehicle and it is a safety concern that needs to be addressed.

The vehicle is a 2019 Ford Edge AWD. At 39,500 miles white smoke comes out of tailpipe, engine coolant quickly disappears, engine runs rough and check engine comes on. At this point the vehicle is undrivable and won’t respond to gas pedal inputs. Appears to be a known engine issue; however, dealer says it’s an exhaust gas recirculation pump and parts needing replacement, with approximate cost of $2000. This is a premature failure of an engine and may cause a safety concern if driving at highway speeds. Vehicle is out of 5 year warranty with 4/2019 build date.

My 2019 Ford Edge SEL is having transmission issues that ford knows about, as many customers have the same issue starting between 37K to 60K miles. The transmission is jerky between 1st to 2nd, 2nd to 3rd, and 3rd to 4th gear. It starts from 15mph to 40 mph. No check engine light comes on. Sometimes it doesn't want to shift into the next gear briefly and I don't drive the vehicle hard at all. Vehicle has been taken to Ford for them to say that it needs a software update and possibly a torque converter to be replaced. i have 54K miles on the vehicle and I purchased it used in August of 2022 with 41K miles on it because of the inventory shortage.

Vehicle began shuddering and losing power while driving. Issues are related to automatic transmission gear shifts. Gears seem to be slipping or not shifting correctly. Tachometer is revving without acceleration at times. Check engine and ford app errors indicate powertrain issue. When slowing down, car randomly acted as if the brake had been pushed hard. If I had not been on a road without other vehicles, a crash would have been likely. Car has been taken to local dealer, who had not yet diagnosed, but has already indicated this is a common issue with 2019 edges and will likely be an expensive fix.

Vehicle began shuddering when accelerating from approx. 20 mph to 50 mph several months ago. It was not always consistent at first, but steadily began worsening. Firestone was unable to diagnose. We though maybe dirty fuel system, but fuel injector cleaner made no difference. Took it to Ford dealer and diagnosed as failing torque converter. Upon further research determined that Ford had issued recalls for other models and years but not ours for this part, but I found numerous reports in discussion forums online of this same part failing in our year and model. Part is currently backordered with no ETA and fortunately we have 1 month and approx. 2000 mi remaining of powertrain warranty so it will be covered. However, Ford cannot provide ETA on the part and I have concerns of manufacturing quality for the replacement part we are awaiting as well as concerns for other drivers with the same vehicle. I called Ford customer service and they advised to submit a report to NHTSA and the only way for me to formally submit a complaint directly to Ford is by snail mail to a PO Box. So, I'm submitting this report in hopes an investigation will be opened about this issue and pressure will be applied to Ford to boost inventory of this critical part and begin a recall process.

I purchased a 2019 Ford Edge (ecoboost) with 49,000 miles. At approximately 55,000 miles the transmission began shifting erratically, cause the vehicle to lurch and then arbitrarily stop. I had the transmission fluid drained and replaced and the transmission performance appeared to improve for approximately 6,000 miles. The erratic shifting, lurching and stopping returned. This behavior placed myself and my passengers at extreme risk as the arbitrary changes in speed (and stopping) would occur without notice, while driving in traffic. I brought the car to my mechanic (who is a recently retired Ford service manager). He was able to confirm the problem and directed me to a transmission mechanic with expertise in Ford transmissions. He inspected the transmission and confirmed several defective components in the transmission. He further indicated that after-market upgraded parts have been produced as a result of the prevalence of this issue. The mechanic indicated that the transmission must be rebuilt. No warning lamps were present until the vehicle went into a constant state of erratic shifting, lurching and stopping.

Bought the vehicle used in July 2022 with around 80,000 miles. After 2 weeks of owning, vehicle started to shift weird and didn't seem to be driving normal. No warning or codes popped up but called dealership to see if they knew what was going on. Took it in and had them hook it up to their systems and still had no codes. Then after test driving, said that it was the torque converter. They replaced it and the vehicle seemed to drive fine until about 11 or 10 months later. The vehicle started to have similar issues but worse. Misfiring when driving in traffic, transmission seemed like it was skipping gears, was worried it was going to shut off and I was going to loose power steering when on the interstate one time. Called the dealership and was told they couldn't do anything unless I paid at this point. Took it to a small transmission shop and had them check it out. The flushed the whole transmission and said they fluid was terrible and their was metal scapes in the fluid as well. Told me it was best to get rid of it but I still owed too much money on it to do anything. Now a year later, I am back to the same issues. Transmission is causing problems, not shifting into gears properly, shifting very hard, jerking when shifting. Scared to drive it in traffic incase it breaks down or completely blows the transmission. I have found a Ford Forum with over 80 other individuals who are having the same issues and begging Ford to do something about this.

Failing torque converter and valve body at approx. 91,000 miles and just under 5 years old. When accelerating (at any speed), the vehicle chugs and struggles to speed up. No warning lights or check engine lights came on. Ford initially diagnosed the problem and wanted to replace JUST the torque converter and valve body. Upon bringing it to dedicated transmission shop it was confirmed the torque converter and valve body are failing. It is not yet confirmed if there is any other work needed as they are checking if Ford will even sell them parts to fix the issue. I was told this has become a known and common occurrence with this specific model of transmission, and there is not even a full remedy of the issue with repair, as they won't replace any other parts in the transmission when the torque converter and valve body are replaced - leading to repeat repairs of the same transmission.

The ford dealer states the problem is in the slip clutch converter. As I begin driving the vehicle it slips, perks, tac goes up and down, engages and is engages up and down constantly. It never throws a code on this and it is a danger for fear of it quitting in the middle of the hwy. The jerking, slipping, kicking out of and into gear constantly. With no code being thrown on it. It shows no recalls on our car but others it dies. Ford wants us to pay 3,400.00 dollars to fix it when it is a manufacturers problem. We don't have that kind of money.

2019 Ford Edge Titatnium is experiencing shudder/buck/jerk while driving up to 35 mph as described in Technical Service Bulletin 21-2081. Dealership said it sounds like the same issue but for some reason my VIN is not part of the recall so they will not check without paying. Dealership asked me to contact Ford directly but they could not assist.I believe this is a safety risk as the shudder/jerking is intensifying and I'm afraid it could stall when driving in traffic resulting in bodily injury.No warning lamps or messages or other symptoms prior to start of issue.

Two separate instances where this vehicle (2019 Ford Edge Titanium) completely shut down. The first, unfortunately, was in traffic while navigating a rotary. The second less intense event was in while parking. Eventually, the vehicle did restart and we were able to get it home. This looks to be an extension of a problem Ford thought was fixed -- related to the cannister purge valve (front) remaining stuck open. I say this because a cheap scanner tool revealed code P0496, and we experienced one of the primary symptoms (rough start after filling gas tank).

Unable to engage and maintain 1st gear on any grade. The design of the rotary shifter eliminated the 1st from the gear shifter leaving only paddle shifting and Sport mode. While in Sport mode with paddle shifters engaged, the car automatically shifts to 2nd gear at 4mph and around 900-1000 rpm (just above idle). When trying to downshift, the gear just flashes, making me unable to downshift to first gear. This forces the frequent engaging of brakes at steep grades, leading to brake overheating and potential brake failure. The design is a safety issue. First gear is an absolute necessity in certain situations and Ford has disabled my ability to use it.

Torque converter malfunction confirmed through transmission shop. When problem initially presented it would intermittenly lag when pressing the accelerator. That turned into a constant jerk/shudder during driving with it being severely pronounced during any kind of acceleration in any gear. The problem only got worse and did so quickly. On several occasions I experienced enough lag that I was almost hit due to the delay in the car moving. I then had to leave ample time to turn in the event the car didn't engage again. The problem was confirmed through an independent transmission shop and is currently up for repair and a Ford dealership. The symptoms were present for 8 months without the car ever throwing a code.
