The torque is shuttering like crazy. I took it into Ford months ago multiple times and they said they had no idea because nothing was coming up, no codes or anything. I have been religious with maintenance checks and whatever they recommend at the dealership. Today my check engine light went on and the cores that came up were about my torque shuttering. Ford released a TSB about the shuttering on my make and model and saying the course of action is to replace the torque converter. I called Ford and told them all this and they quoted me thousands and said they aren’t liable for the repairs. How are they not responsible when this is a manufacturing issue? The car is unsafe to drive and Ford even released a TSB but they refuse to fix it.
My Ford jerks and shutters as I accelerate from 0 to 40 per hour. I took it in to Capitol Ford in Carson Ctiy, NV. They told me the transmission computer software need to be upgraded. I'm afraid the transmission is going to go out and cause a accident. No accident has happen yet.
My 2019 Ford Edge begin to stutter after I reached 60k miles. 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.
VEHICLE FAILS TO UTILIZE AUTO STOP/START. VEHICLE ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND OFF CONSTANTLY. VEHICLE HESISTATES, JERKS FORWARDS, SPUTTERS, AND DOES NOT GAIN SPEED PROPERLY AT ANY GIVEN TIME. VEHICLE WAS LOOKED AT OFF AN ON FOR OVER 4 YEARS BY NORTH BROTHERS FORD OF MICHIGAN. THEY SAID ON MUTIPLE OCCASIONS CAR IS FINE AND ALL SYMPTOMS ARE NORMAL EVEN AS 4 OTHER CARS WERE BROUGHT IN AND AGAIN THEY SAID THIS WAS ALL NORMAL. ALL OF THIS OFF AND ON FROM ABOUT YEAR 1 OF PURCHASING VEHICLE TILL NOW (7/30/2025) AND PROBLEMS ARE STILL ON GOING. TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN REBUILT, OIL CHANGES REGULAR, TUNE UP PERFORMED. COILS REPLACED ON PRIOR SERVICES DUE TO ISSUES NOTICEDE BY MAINTENANCE TEAM.
My transmission started to shudder with MPH under 40. I mentioned this to the Ford Dealership in Manhattan during an oil change but they said they found no transmission issues. My car just hit 61,800 miles, so the warranty is now over. The shudder started much worse in the past couple of days. I contact the dealership in regards to the Tech Service Bulletin on the NHTSA website from 3/18/2021. I mentioned how I noticed this and no one offered this option while the car was still under warranty. They said that solution will likely not fix the problem and I will need a full transmission replacement. How does Ford not know this is an incredibly common issue? There is no chance this car can maintain a speed or accelerate properly with the model years 2019-2021. This is a safety issue, not just a company taking advantage of consumers.
I was driving on a country road and had my cruise control set to 55. My car braked hard and de-accelerated to about 40 and then increased the speed without hitting the resume button. My 89 year old mother was my passenger in the car with me and both of us were jolted when the seat belts locked up. We both gasped as we were startled by this action. There were no animals, vehicles or blowing debris across the path of my car. No messages appeared on my dash. I have not reported this to my Ford dealer and the car is available to be checked. This was a one time event. If a police officer had been behind me I would have received a ticket for brake checking.
ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL HAS A MIND OF ITS OWN. SOMETIMES IT KEEPS YOU BETWEEN THE ROAD LINES. SOMETIMES IT WILL LET YOU GO OFF THE ROAD. SOMETIMES IT WILL TRY TO PULL THE STEERING WHEEL OUT OF YOUR HANDS FOR NO REASON. SOMETIMES THE PRE-COLLISION ALARM WILL GO OFF FOR NO REASON. SOMETIMES IT WILL STOP FOR A VEHICLE IN FRONT OF YOU. SOMETIMES IT WILL NOT. HOW CAN YOU FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE?
