2019 Ford Edge

On June 3, 2026, my 2019 Ford Edge (2.0L EcoBoost) experienced a sudden loss of motive power and stalled in the middle of a busy, high-traffic intersection. Before stalling, the vehicle emitted thick white smoke from the exhaust. This was a life-threatening situation as I was stranded in moving traffic. The vehicle was towed to Mike Burkart Ford, where it was diagnosed with an internal EGR cooler leak. This is a known issue documented by Ford in TSB 20-2234. Despite the safety-critical nature of the stall, there is currently no active recall for this component in the 2019 model year.

Shortly after my warranty ended the transmission needed a full replacement and left the vehicle undriveable at 100k miles. There were no signs leading up to it , no lights coming on, nothing. Went from driving around just fine to completely stuck until fixed. Then Ford quoted me to fix it for about $10,000 dollars. It was shocking, disappointing and left me feeling helpless and betrayed due to lack of concern from anyone. Its either pay us to fix, buy a new one or get out of here. I also owed about 2 years of payments on the vehicle at the time as well.

Car was repeatedly hesitating and shuddering during normal stop/go driving. Took it to the dealer and it was diagnosed with a "torque converter" issue (estimated cost of repairs is $4100). After researching this more, this looks to be a known issue with Ford 6-speed automatic transmissions. The hesitating and shuddering is a safety issue since the car is not responding properly to the drivers actions.

The contact owns a 2019 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds the vehicle had experienced acceleration hesitation and reduced speeds. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer who was unable to duplicate the failure. The engine spark plugs were replaced but the failure continued to occur. The manufacturer was not contacted regarding the failure. The failure mileage was 10,000.

I have a 2019 Ford Edge Vin: [XXX] . My torque converter is going out and my warranty company doesn't want to replace because they say it was a pre existing issue. I know there are a lot of people with this same exact problem and I know there is an investigation into the problem. I need to know if there is any way this can be added to the recall list so I don't have to pay for this out of pocket. The dealership I bought this from knew about the problem and cleared all codes before they sold me the vehicle. I bought an exteded warranty through Endurance and I waited until after the 1000 mile and 30 day wait before filing any claim and they don't want to fix it.
