The contact owns a 2015 Ford Edge. The contact stated that upon starting the vehicle or while the vehicle was idling, the engine started to sputter, and the check engine warning light illuminated. The contact stated that while driving at undisclosed speeds, there was a misfire in the engine. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that cylinder #3 and #4 were misfiring and the spark plugs needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure recurred the following day with the check engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle was then taken back to the independent mechanic where a borescope test was performed, and it was diagnosed and determined that the reservoir was consuming an excessive amount of coolant. Additionally, there was a crack in the engine and that the engine needed to be replaced. The dealer and the manufacturer were notified of the failure and the contact was informed that the vehicle was out of warranty and no further assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 74,000.

Water pump has died. Seems like a frequent issue with this engine as per research and seeing many class action lawsuits

The car's ENTIRE ENGINE needed to be replaced due to coolant intrusion in cylinder three - at a cost of $7,000 - through no fault of mine. The car had had absolutely no problems up until this time, and the prescribed regular maintenance was preformed religiously. When "Googling" Ford Edge coolant intrusion, I found that numerous Ford owners with 4-cylinder turbo engines have had to have their entire engines replaced due to this apparently well-know problem. Some with less than 50k miles. I was also told by the dealership service department, that the engines have not been redesigned, so that this new $7k engine, may well develop the same problem! I am forced to pay the $7,000 repair bill, otherwise it would have no trade-in or sale value, and would just be a very large lawn ornament. This is an insanely expensive repair bill for owners, for a design flaw that apparently Ford knows well about. Please help! Thank you.

Vehicle is at 72,511 miles and suddenly started to misfire in idle. The vehicle is displaying coolant intrusion and I have video proof of coolant dripping into the 4th cylinder while running a pressure test on the coolant system and using a borescope. There is no maintenance that could have been done to prevent this issue as it is a clear design flaw. Based on TSB: 19-2208 the only repair is an engine block replacement. This car is now at risk to overheat, fail on a busy free way, and needs a repair that is too expensive for a customer to take on due to Ford’s poor design. Someone should not have to be seriously injured or be killed in order for this recall to be issued. People deserve better and this is very unethical to not recall the engine. Please require Ford to recall this vehicle’s engine.

My car overheated due to a problem with the ECOBOOST engine known by Ford where coolant leaked into the 4th cylinder of my engine. My mechanic used a product called Blue Devil which somewhat improved the leak but has recommended that my engine be replaced however I do not have the resources due to my disability which I am drawing disability benefits from Social Security since 2017 and also being widowed in February 2022.

Been mis fire codes and air leak codes. now dealer say coolant get to cyclinders , need new engine. seems there is class action law suit filed for this issue

engine miss fire code and loss of coolant

The oil pan is made of plastic and is known to warp and leak. I have had 3 oil pans on the car since I purchased it February 2018. This poses a risk because oil is spilled onto the ground creating an environmental and slip hazard. The issue has been verified by two different Ford dealers in my area. They both have replaced the oil pan for me and stated that it would probably leak again. Since the last replacement, it has began leaking and I have not bothers to pay for it again because I have been hoping that it would become a recall. It is a known issue among the online forums surrounding this car. No warning lights indicated unless the oil level gets too low.

The contact owns a 2015 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the check engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, who diagnosed that coolant was leaking into cylinder #1, causing damage to the spark plugs. The mechanic replaced the spark plugs; however, the failure recurred. The vehicle was taken back to the independent mechanic, who diagnosed that the engine misfired due to coolant leaking into cylinder #2, the engine block, and the engine oil, causing damage to the spark plugs again. The vehicle was then taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed that there was sludge in the engine oil and that the engine needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and advised the contact to file a complaint with the NHTSA Hotline. The failure mileage was approximately 80,000.

My car all of a sudden started making a very loud clanging noise on start up. I took to Ford Dealer in Devine. Service said it sounded like a belt, but no one could actually look at it since they were backed up for 3 weeks. I spoke to [XXX] there. My husband took two different mechanics and they both said fly wheel. We told them to fix. When mechanic got in there to change he said that the flywheel was cracked in 4 places. It has almost ready to completely fall apart. He said that was not normal for a flywheel to do that. After doing some reach we found out that this happened to many Ford Edges (different years) and the short block is the problem. This could have ended very badly if flywheel would have went to pieces while driving. INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

Currently my 2015 Ford Edge 2.0 Eco boost has a blown motor. This is due to an issue that Ford currently knows about. However ford has only done a recall on the 1.5 Eco boost. June 9th 2022 Ford put out to dealerships a Technical Service Bulletin stating there is a known issue with the motor. Coolent can leak into the motors causes them to blow, misfire, and potentially catch on fire. I feel that this is a huge safety issue as well as cost to the consumers. I have attached below the TSB from ford stating they know of the issue and the current recall in the 1.5 eco boost motors.

The contact owns a 2015 Ford Edge. The contact stated that she had initially noticed oil leaking onto her garage pavement. As the failure persisted, the contact brought the issue to the attention of the dealer who informed her that the defect was related to improper service rendered by the independent mechanic that serviced her oil change. As the failure worsened, the same independent mechanic informed her that the oil leak could potentially lead to a vehicle fire. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer who then discovered that an oil leak had leaked from the seals in the reservoir; the vehicle was repaired. The contact also stated that upon start of the vehicle, the engine would vibrate without warning. The contact brought the vehicle to Rowe Auburn (699 Center St, Auburn, ME 042100) where they diagnosed the vehicle with a defective flex plate. The contact discovered that the flex plate had been placed under recall however, her vehicle was not included in the recall. The manufacturer had yet to be notified of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.

The contact owns a 2015 Ford Edge. The contact stated while driving 25 MPH, he heard a loud rattling noise coming from the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the dealer to be diagnosed. The contact was informed that the engine flex plate was fractured and needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was contacted and informed of the failure. The manufacturer referred the contact to the NHTSA. The failure mileage was 108,000.

The contact owns a 2015 Ford Edge. The contact stated while driving at approximately 40 MPH, the check engine warning light illuminated and started flashing. The contact stated that as she slowed for a traffic light the vehicle started to idle rough and the vehicle started to shake. The contact stated that when she came to a stop the vehicle would not move forward when she took her foot off of the brake pedal and depressed the accelerator pedal. The contact drove the vehicle to her residence. The vehicle was towed to a dealer where it was diagnosed that coolant had intruded into cylinder #1 and #3. The mechanic determined that several engine parts needed to be replaced. The contact did not remember which parts needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer had been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 70,000.

I bought this vehicle and within 2 hours engine light came on. It was diagnosed cylinder 1 misfire. After spending $700 later on spark plugs, engine coil pack, oil change, rear differential, and engine oil flush, it was diagnosed with a coolant leak into the engine. Within 3 weeks of buying the vehicle i now have to replace the whole engine. This is costly- and shouldn’t be happening. Ford should be replacing this free of cost with as many issues and people have this problem rather than just submitting a service bulletin.

TSB 19-2346 coolant intrusion to cylinders. Latent Factory Defect that has no preventative maintainability. Only cure us to replace the whole engine that cost over 8000$ dollars.

The contact owns a 2015 Ford Edge. The contact stated that after having routine maintenance performed on her vehicle at a dealer, the engine started to rumble. The next day, the check engine warning light illuminated, and the vehicle was taken back to the dealer. The dealer diagnosed the vehicle with engine failure as a result of coolant that had leaked into cylinder #1. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed her that there were no recalls on the vehicle and that the vehicle was out of warranty. The vehicle was not repaired.

EcoBoost engine has a design flaw in the engine block and cylinder head that allow coolant to leaks into the cylinder

Internal water pump failer - the water pump on my vehicle failed and began leaking. This is my wife's vehicle and if I had not noticed the issue (which is not easy to notice) then the water pump will leak water into the engine and cause the motor to lock up or seize without warning.

I had my engine light come on several months ago. Driving down the highway, my car went from 55 to 20 mph and that’s all the faster I could get it to accelerate.Took to a mechanic and hooked it up to his reader and showed it was an engine misfire. Oil and fluids have been changed on time every year. The car has less than 60,000 miles on it. Lost heat and here there was very low coolant. Replenished the coolant and the next day was gone. Took back to mechanic and there was no external leak. Upon further inspections, it was determined that the coolant is leaking into the engine and only solution is a complete engine replacement. This is a huge safety issue. I am so thankful that I was driving on the highway with no traffic that day or it could have been a lot worse. Please make this issue into an immediate recall for the safety of all us drivers with these vehicles.

I BOUGHT THIS CAR AT 58K, IN 2019 I TOOK IT INTO FORD WHEN A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME UP. FORD TOLD ME IT WAS COOLANT INTRUSION IN THE CYLINDER AND IT WOULD BE A 7K REPAIR.

Car purchased as a CPO vehicle with 40,318 miles. Soon after I had regular maintenance service on 3/27/21 at 47,350 miles the car began to drag and the wheel on the driver side had a harder drive. I reported to my Ford service Dept and finally got an appointment on 5/07/21 at 47,921 miles and they could not duplicate the car’s reported actions. So thinking all was ok,I took a road trip stating at 48,500 miles and at 49,310 miles the engine light came on initial code 301 by auto zone power train problem. Called local Ford Service Dept their findings, code P0301 and P0316 and I need a Long Block,when I goggle it,it translated into a ENGINE. I decline and they gave me 1 spark plug and gallon container of antifreeze so I can get back home. And told me to check reservoir at every fill up. I put a little over 9,000 miles and this car needs a new engine,that’s ludicrous. I did some research once I got home. For dealers received a month before they sold me this car a warning of engine problems where the antifreeze was going into the cylinders causing a misfire. I have an appointment with my local dealer,but from the way the car is acting the prognosis doesn’t seem any different from the out of town Ford service dept. How can they do this and not inform the customer.

ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON CHECKED IT WITH DIAGNOSTIC READER AT O'REILLY'S, INDICATED CYLINDER #4 WAS MISFIRING. HEATER STOPPED WORKING. CHECKED COOLANT IT WAS VERY LOW. FILLED COOLANT RESERVOIR. NEXT TIME DROVE VEHICLE ENGINE GOT HOT. PULLED OVER IMMEDIATELY AND CHECKED COOLANT IT WAS EMPTY NOT LEAKING. RESEARCH INDICATES THIS IS HAPPENING TO A LOT OF PEOPLE AND COULD BE VERY DANGEROUS ONLY FIX IS TO REPLACE MOTOR. FORD EDGE 2015
