2018 Ford Edge Complaints

Vehicle: 2018 Ford Edge Titanium AWD, 2.0L EcoBoost VIN: [XXX] I am reporting a serious safety concern involving my 2018 Ford Edge following an engine block replacement performed by Power Ford in [XXX], due to the known coolant intrusion issue. Before the engine replacement, I routinely drove long trips between [XXX], [XXX], and [XXX] without any loss of power or drivability problems. Immediately after the engine replacement, the vehicle began experiencing an intermittent but repeatable loss of power. After approximately 30–40 minutes of highway driving, especially on sustained uphill grades, the engine revs to about 4,000 RPM, but the vehicle will not accelerate and may actually lose speed.

The contact owns a 2018 FORD EDGE. The contact stated that while driving on the highway at 55 mph the engine experienced a slight loss of automotive power and the check engine warning light was illuminated, the contact continued to drive the vehicle to a local dealer where it was diagnosed and the contact was advised that the engine had seized as a result of coolant intrusion, and that the engine would have to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 43,000.

Our Edge has the Ford known coolant leak issue. When we talked with Ford, they flat out refused to help in any way. Buying a bottle of coolant about every month and a half now until funds are raised for the new engine/long block.

2.0L motor cel on mechanics \ service tech said coolant is intruding the cylinders. the car may over heat ,crack a piston, destroy motor and may catch fire! confirmed by dealer. no earlier symptoms just CEL came on.

*Initial engine startup rough idling and also after filling gas tank up, periodic stalling, Check Engine light come on, P302 Code misfire of cylinder #2, Disappearing coolant with no observable leaks, white smoke upon startups. I am bringing the car in tomorrow to Ford for an engine inspection/analysis. *The engine stalled on the Hwy. The vehicle will be inspected tomorrow to confirm long block flawed design. *rough idling and check engine light has progressively become more frequent over a prior of the last 2 years. Reported to service advisor on multiple occasions without resolution.
