When I accelerate it stutter between 15-35 MPH I called Bill Brown Ford spoke to a service advisor , she stated it’s in the transmission so I took my vehicle to a transmission shop was informed nothing wrong with trans. The car jerks during take off biggest fear it shutting down while driving. No warning signals in the dash just begin to drive differently during take off. Too many complaint for this not to be listed as a recall before someone gets hurt.

2019 Ford Edge 67K miles. A few months ago experienced 'hesitation" & some jerking once accelerated. It would continue until around 40 mph. Took to dealer, determined initially it was the Purge Valve. This was repaired; however, rec'd a call that torque converter locking & slipping. The fluid has metal parts. They said there was damage to the transmission. They didn't recommend repairing because the same issue will happen. A new transmission in process of being done. Been in service dept. since 8/11/25. Not finished with repairs yet. Found out via search that this issue is common with this year of vehicle & mileage & owners suggest filing a complaint. The warranty has expired & cost of repair is very expensive. Search also seems to have other model years having the same issue.

Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2018-2022 Transit Connect, 2019-2020 MKZ, MKX, Edge, Continental, F-150, Nautilus, Fusion, 2019-2023 Ranger, Mustang, 2020-2021 EcoSport, Expedition, Navigator, 2020-2022 Escape, F-250 SD, Corsair, 2020-2023 Aviator, Transit, 2020-2024 Explorer, 2021-2024 Bronco Sport, and 2022-2024 Maverick vehicles. A software error may cause the rearview camera to display a blank image, or the image may remain on the display after the backing event has ended.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: A rearview camera that displays a blank image can reduce the driver's view behind the vehicle. A rearview image that continues to be displayed after the vehicle is shifted out of reverse may distract the driver. Both of these situations can increase the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Dealers will update the rearview camera software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed September 4, 2025. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 25S72.

Consequence & remedy

Remedy: Ford will notify owners, and dealers will replace the start/stop accumulator, free of charge. The recall began September 23, 2020. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 20S49.
