2018 Ford Edge

I have the 2.0 Ecoboost that is the subject of internal coolant leak with a potential diagnosis that matches the TRB on this issue. The car has 50K miles and is a 2018 Edge. If this is the issue it should be fixed by Ford without the need for me as an owner to foot the bill for their poor design especially since it was know for a couple years prior by Ford before I purchased this vehicle new. NHTSA should certainly force a recall. At this point it was noted by the dealer during servicing that we were low on coolant.

When started vehicle shook violently. Check engine light came on and we took the vehicle to two different mechanics. Both stated engine failure do to coolant intrusion. Needed to replace long block and quoted at least $7000 in repairs. This has been a known issue with these motors yet no recall has been issued. We also contacted our local Ford dealer and they also said we needed a new motor. We reached out to Ford for assistance in covering the cost and were told there was nothing they could do for us. This is our childs school car and I do not feel safe with her driving even to and from school. We have been the owners for 2 years. 2018 Ford Edge Titanium 2.0 Ecoboost engine. 120k miles.

On the dash board, it displayed a severe warning regarding "engine over temprature" that caused due to the engine coolant intrusion in to the cylinder 2 and caused it to misfire and the engine light to be displayed. After time and money consuming rigorous effort, each and individual parts of the engine checked based on the codes displayed. And, I realized that the engine itself was actually causing the such internal critical issue. Finally, I brought it to the Ford dealership and they told me that the engine has design defect that actually causes the coolant intrusion into the cylinder that shouldn't happen in the first place. And I was told the engine must be replaced. Detailed analysis of the issue discloses that Ford models between 2015-2018 have the same critical issues. However, Ford Motor Company never issues a recall safety issue for such potential engine issue that affected millions of Americans who have these models. I can't afford to pay $10k to replace a long block engine according to the dealer final solution to fix the internal engine problem. The car is disabled and parked out side for almost close to two years now. I am seeking justice. Help.me please!

Engine developed a bad skip, dealer service originally said it was a faulty spark plug or coil on cylinder 2so they replaced those for a cost of $414 on 6/4/26. This did not fix the problem. The second diagnosis identified the engine defect that was causing the skip. They recommended an engine replacement and contacted Ford to request assistance since it's a know manufacturing defect. This request was declined. Campbell Auto Repair replaced the engine on 8/19/2026 at a cost of $6,601.68. We feel that Ford should bear the cost of these repairs.

I am filing a formal complaint for a Safety issue regarding Brakes. When turning, the "Brake Fluid Low" light would flash on for 2 seconds. It did not stay on. Brake pedal seemed normal. When inspected, there was no fluid in the Master Cylinder. No leak was detected. Fluid was in the Brake Booster. They indicated both would need to be replaced. There are 28,000 miles on the 2018 Ford Edge. My Safety and passengers was put at risk because there was no fluid and brakes could fail at any time. The Low fluid light did not stay on. This problem was confirmed at an independent service center. I am taking the vehicle to the Ford Dealer Service Department on 8.26.26 Only when turning a corner did a light come on Low Brake Fluid for 2 seconds. It is not on otherwise. I have had the oil changed and vehicle inspected and used Ford Service at the dealer "The Works" package where supposedly the brakes fluid and breaks were inspected at appropriate intervals and this was last done on 3.11.26 and it was rated as "good" by the Dealership. Based on the fact the Master Cylinder should be good for around 90,000 miles it seems defective and a safety issue. We have 28,000 miles, garage kept, well maintained vehicle Ford has issued massive safety recalls for exactly this issue on 2015–2018 Ford Edge vehicles (specifically Recall 20V-332 / Ford Campaign 20S31) However our vehicle does not fall within the date range. Our vehicle was made of 3/2018. I have called Lasco Ford Dealership and Ford Customer Service. This is our only vehicle and now we cannot drive it.

The contact owns a 2018 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while attempting to start the vehicle, the “Service Engine” warning light illuminated. A dealer was contacted. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed and determined that there was coolant leaking into the cylinders and that the engine needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure but offered no assistance. The approximate failure mileage was 67,000.
