2019 Ford Edge power train problems

“2019 Ford Edge SEL internal torque converter shutters at 25-60miles an hr. Took to ford garage varied that it is the torque converter is bad with metal in transmission pan guild. Extended warranty called they only want to put a used transmission in with 45000 miles on it when my car only has 57000 miles and when I bought it in 02/12/22 it has 26,231 miles on it . It is known to have this problem with transmissions for that yr . There should be a recall on it since so many people that have reported this to ford . So now I have to come up with around $2000.00 for a new transmission bc warranty company refuses to pay for a new transmission . Contact ford about this and lady told me I’ll just have to pay out of pocket then bc they can’t help me. It’s not right I paid for extended warranty should be able to have new one”

“The vehicle shudders and misses bad at this has been going on for several months. Wehaditscanned by a transmission shop and the said it was spark plug trouble. We replaced them twice and did not fix problem. We had it scanned again and was coil packs which we replaced twice an it did not fix it. Ford dealership did a scan and said it was the torque converter and would be $4000.00 to fix. Transmission shop quoted about 2800.00. They said to wait till mid October because Ford was making a valve body that might fix the problem.”

“In late August 2026, I was driving my 2019 Ford Edge SEL (2.0L EcoBoost, AWD, 8F35 8-speed automatic) at approximately 100,085 miles with my young son as a passenger. After coming to a normal stop at a stop sign, the vehicle would not engage any gear when I attempted to pull away. It rolled in neutral, with no drive power, approximately 150 feet past the stop sign before coming to a stop. The rotary shifter then automatically returned itself to Park. The wrench and check engine warning lights were illuminated. From that point on, the transmission would not engage any gear, including Neutral. Every time I tried selecting a gear, the shifter automatically returned to Park. The vehicle was completely immobilized and had to be towed home, and later towed to a Ford dealership. Since the day I purchased the vehicle, it exhibited transmission shudder at speeds below approximately 30-35 mph, a condition documented for this model year in TSB 25-2154, as well as occasional rough shifting at random times with no consistent pattern. The dealer service center the vehicle is currently with diagnosed the failure and recommended a transmission replacement, quoting $6,957.94…”

“My car is having an extremely hard time accelerating and when it does its shifting rough, shuttering and lagging. I cant tell if the transmission is slipping or if its coil packs and spark plugs but its struggling. It throws no codes which keeps everyones hands tied because we dont even know which direction to go with it. My warranty covers power train but with no codes being thrown, no one is honoring the warranty.”

“•Torque converter failure diagnosed by dealership available for inspection until scheduled repair work. •In danger of complete failure; could cause highway accident if sudden failure or personal danger if broken down along roadways. •Only inspected by dealership service dept. •No indicator lights or warning lamps. I did notice RPM gauge needle jumping slightly several weeks before shudder was felt physically.”

“Experienced a shudder when accelerating from a stop, increasing in intensity as time went on. There was no warning lamp or any other indication from the vehicle system that there was a problem. After a few weeks of increasing concerns, I brought the car in to my Ford Dealer for diagnostics. Ford Dealer confirmed this was due to a failing torque converter, which is very common in this vehicle, and a Technical Service Bulletin had just been issued for this. I was advised not to drive it, as it would eventually cause severe damage to the transmission. Additionally, continued driving could lead to sudden acceleration loss, engine stalling in traffic, and dangerous transmission overheating which are serious safety concerns for myself and drivers around me. I contacted Ford for financial assistance with this repair because they were fully aware of this common problem with their vehicles, and my car was just out of warranty. Ford offered to pay 40% of the repair, but I still ended up paying over $4,000 out of pocket to repair an issue that was a result of their faulty factory product that should have been part of a mass recall. It took 7 long weeks for this repair to…”
