ODI #11751792

POWER TRAIN — Filed 06/01/2026

When accelerating at low speeds the transmission bucks and/or surges so that the car stutters. This is currently happening, two mechanics have checked and see no misfiring and there is no warning light showing but there is clearly some sort of issue with the transmission. This sounds very similar to a recall made in other Ford Edges, I am able to bring it in for inspection upon request. This constant jerking motion impacts safety of myself as the driver and my passengers as it's consistently changing the field of vision when it's pulsing and it is causing motion sickness on extended drives. This has started happening every time I drive and it is unavoidable.

POWER TRAIN — Filed 07/16/2026

Our Edge titanium had been experiencing intermittant hesitation and shuttering on acceleration and decelleration for 3 or 4 weeks. The car has 105,000 miles on it. During this time frame the spark plugs were changed, the trans fluid was drained and replaced twice and an additive (Shutter fix) was put in. The shuttering and hesitation was becoming more frequent despited completing all of the reccomendations from a local mechanic. On XXX my wifte was diving home, when he slowed down to exit the hwy to enter the subdivision, the transmission just disengauged and an erro code appeared P07E6. (Stuck in Park) service soon. She had enough momentum to barely exit off [XXX], if there was on coming traffic she would have been a sitting duck. Se shut the car off and let it sit for a couple of minutes and the restarted it and headed the 2 blocks home. I Immediatly took it to the dealer. The got the code and said it indicated a Park Pawl failure. They said it must be sticking and the computer thought you were in park when you were driving so it shut things down. The dealer says he has had to replace several of these 8 speed transmissions at an out the door price of $11,000. He says if he can rebuild it, it might only be $7,500. Most mechanics in Spearfish say they have heard there are problems with the 8 speed transmission. I believe failing at 104,000 miles is a sign of a bad product. And this faulty Park Pawl is a safety hazzard that may get someone killed if it shuts down with on coming traffic.

POWER TRAIN — Filed 02/20/2026

Recently, the car started shuddering at 25-45 mph. We took it to the Ford dealer for an evaluation and were told that the torque converter and transmission are very damaged. They both need to be replaced at a cost of $10,000. We have only 61500 miles on the car. Further research has indicated that if we were to keep driving it, it could result in sudden failure, loss of driving power and possibly loss of control

My wife was driving her 2019 Ford Edge Titanium when the transmission started to shudder and clunk. Then the car completely shutdown in the middle of a busy intersection. This transmission failure at such a low mileage (less than 70,000 miles) is unacceptable and the risk of losing control of the car poses a safety concern.

At about 60,000 miles my 2019 does edge started to shutter at 25mph and it progressively got worse now it’s doing it and 25,35,45,55,65 mph down the road(rpm is always bouncing around never consistent ). no check engine lights or the repair symbol are on the dash I’ve been doing a lot more research and I do believe it’s the torque converter failing.

POWER TRAIN — Filed 07/01/2026

I purchased My 2019 ford edge Titanium in April 2021 with 12k miles on it. June 2023, I had to replace the torque converter at 52k miles. In March 2024, I replaced the purge valve. January 2026, I started having shuddering at takeoff and a jerk when shifting from park to reverse. I had a tune up completed and fuel Injector replacement. July 2026, I started having shuddering at takeoff again. Rapidly progressed to loss of acceleration and my air would not blow cold. It’s been at the shop 2 weeks now and I still owe on it. I’ll never purchase another Ford! I’ve read way too many people online having the same issues I’m experiencing and there’s no recall. My son and I could have been seriously hurt if that loss of acceleration occurred on the interstate

POWER TRAIN — Filed 03/23/2023

I started having transmission issues 2 years after having my car. Took it into the shop and they stated it was a powertrain and transmission slipping. Then proceeded to quote the work almost $7,000. This is the second ford vehicle I had that has had transmission problems. What if my car stalls out at a red light or the transmission fails on the road? Important factors to consider.
