2022 Ford Edge power train problems

“The contact owns a 2022 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while driving approximately 30 - 40 MPH, the transmission unexpectedly failed to operate as needed. The contact stated that due to the failure, the vehicle unexpectedly lurched forward and jerked violently. The contact stated that the vehicle lost accelerator pedal control after violently jerking. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed with transmission failure. The contact was informed that the transmission needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure by telephone, and a case was opened. The failure mileage was 104,000.”

“I have a 2022 Ford Edge with catastrophic internal mechanical failure of the 8F35 8-speed automatic transmission and torque converter assembly. This issue became substantially noticeable in early April of 2026 (probably earlier but I was unaware it was transmission issues) while on a road trip when the vehicle was delayed in shifting into gears after coming to a stop from park or at a stop light. Vehicle was brought to Advanced Auto Parts to have the diagnostics ran on the car. The only issue that came up was that the battery was getting to be towards end life and was advised I would need to replace by fall. At this time the car was around 50K miles. The issues progressively got worse over time when in August the car experienced full stalling moments when trying to turn left across several lanes of traffic putting both myself and family and others at risk of accidents. The car also began to have a shudder towards the end of August early September. At this time I had the battery replaced. The car ran better for a day and then the issues started back up again and finally a code to have the engine checked came on. Brought to an auto parts store and they advised no…”

“My 2022 Ford Edge suffered a catastrophic internal mechanical failure of the 8F35 8-speed automatic transmission and torque converter assembly. The Ford dealership service department dropped the pan and found heavy metal shavings, confirming total internal destruction. The vehicle is currently un-driveable and available for inspection at the dealership. While accelerating to merge onto a high-speed public highway, the transmission suffered a sudden, severe loss of propulsion. The engine revved, but the vehicle failed to accelerate, leaving us stranded at dangerously low speeds directly in front of oncoming semi-trucks. When the gears finally caught, the vehicle began shuddering and bucking violently. This unpredictable lack of power forced oncoming high-speed traffic to swerve violently around us, creating a near-fatal hazard before I could coast to the shoulder. This failure was officially diagnosed and confirmed by Ford factory-trained technicians, and an active safety escalation case file is logged under Case Number CXH-09567360-K1C1F9. There were absolutely no prior warning lights, dashboard messages, or drivability symptoms before the transmission…”

“I bought my 2022 ford edge (AWD Titanium) last year and not too long after that I experienced transmission shudder. I recently spoke with a technician about this and he had mentioned that other ford edges are having the same issue as mine to the point that ford has issued a TSB on this subject. I'm sure i don't need to state the danger of the possibility of my transmission going out on the road.”

“Shuddering and jerking from 20-40 mph. Dealer reports torque converter and planetary gear problems requiring expensive repairs or replacement of the transmission.”

“The contact owns a 2022 Ford Edge. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the accelerator pedal was depressed, however the vehicle failed to accelerate as intended. The vehicle jerked, and the transmission independently shifted into park(P). In addition, an unknown warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic, where it was diagnosed with a failed transmission. The contact was informed that the transmission needed to be replaced. The vehicle was in the process of being repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 103,000.”
