ENGINE

Potential Consequences:

The 2018 Ford Edge I currently own and according to my research, there have been several class action suits that have been filed due to the customer experiencing "coolant intrusion" into the engine rendering the vehicle useless without repair. My vehicle only has 50,000 miles on it and needs $6-7,000.00 worth of repairs to correct the problem. The current resale value without this issue is $10-13,000.00 but is now worth basically scrap. Cases that have been filed are Case [XXX] [XXX] et al. v. Ford Motor Co. in the United States District Court Eastern District of California. According to this case it states, "It pertains to 2013-2019 Ford Escape, 2013-2019 Ford Fusion, 2015-2018 Ford Edge, 2016-2019 Lincoln MKC, and 2016-2019 Lincoln MKZ models equipped with the 1.5L, 1.6L, and 2.0L EcoBoost engines, specifically, citing coolant intrusion as its chief focus." There are similar cases filed in U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware, as well as another in the Ontario Court of Justice in Canada. My vehicle exhibits nearly all of the issues common with coolant intrusion which can be Overheating, Coolant consumption issues, Engine misfire, Engine damage, and Engine fire Smoke coming from exhaust pipes. According to the current cases and complaints the models experiencing this issue are 2013-2019 Ford Escape, 2013-2019 Ford Fusion, 2015-2018 Ford Edge, 2017-2019 Lincoln MKC, 2017-2019 Lincoln MKZ. I respectfully ask that you hold Ford accountable for this issue as it has placed undue financial burden on the consumer. I attempted to contact Ford and they said no issues such relating to coolant intrusion exist for my 2018 Ford Edge with that VIN number but cannot explain why a well maintained vehicle with 50,000 miles is no longer operable. This puts millions of consumers on the road at risk should that engine fail while being operated on the road. A case has been filed with Ford it is CASE NUMBER [XXX].

There are similar cases filed in U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware, as well as another in the Ontario Court of Justice in Canada. My vehicle exhibits nearly all of the issues common with coolant intrusion which can be Overheating, Coolant consumption issues, Engine misfire, Engine damage, and Engine fire Smoke coming from exhaust pipes. According to the current cases and complaints the models experiencing this issue are 2013-2019 Ford Escape, 2013-2019 Ford Fusion, 2015-2018 Ford Edge, 2017-2019 Lincoln MKC, 2017-2019 Lincoln MKZ. I respectfully ask that you hold Ford accountable for this issue as it has placed undue financial burden on the consumer. I attempted to contact Ford and they said no issues such relating to coolant intrusion exist for my 2018 Ford Edge with that VIN number but cannot explain why a well maintained vehicle with 50,000 miles is no longer operable. This puts millions of consumers on the road at risk should that engine fail while being operated on the road. A case has been filed with Ford it is CASE NUMBER [XXX].

Potential Consequences:

POWER LIFTGATE FAILURE Recently, I put my hand on car to steady myself while my wife got my walker from the back of the car. she closed the hatch, but I had not lifted my hand and my finger was caught by the hatch. My wife immediately pushed the button on the hatch but it would not open. She then tried the dash button. It did not open. she started the car and tried the button and the hatch did not open, but did release just enough to release my finger. What if had been alone. 30,000 get their hands in car doors each year. what if this were a child and the hatch would not open. There are times where the hatch WILL NOT OPEN! There is no way to open the hatch manually. This very SERIOUS. There must be RECALL and Ford must replace existing controls with fail safe controls

Potential Consequences:

I brought in my vehicle for regular service (I.e., oil change) on June 2nd and all was well though i did get my rear brakes done. By June 19th, my check engine light came in and when I brought in my vehicle later that same morning, I was informed coolant had leaked into the engine, now requiring an entire engine replacement which I was told would cost 8500. I have since learned this is a fairly common issue is this model ford edge with eco boost engines and am appalled ford has not issued a recall for this defect.

ENGINE

Potential Consequences:

The check engine light came on, and I brought it to a Ford dealership. They confirmed that it has coolant intrusion into the cylinders and needs a new engine. They also informed me that my year, make, model and engine were recalled by Ford for this issue, but for some reason my VIN doesn't fall under it. Ford agreed to pay 40% of the cost which leaves me with a bill for $4,958.23 for a vehicle which should be covered under the recall. This should be covered under the recall. I was told to file a complaint with you. Apparently this is a safety issue that can cause the vehicle to suddenly shut off and cause a fire. The issue Any help would be great.

STEERING

Potential Consequences:

We had stopped to get a soda and when we came back out and started the vehicle the steering wheel turned 90 degrees so the straight position was now 12 and 6 vs 3 and 9, I tried to shut the vehicle off and restart it and no change in steering wheel position. There was also an adaptive steering error on the dash. Another issue with this was that you could no longer see the speedometer as the steering spoke was covering it, we drove to the closest Ford dealer from where we were and we were told they didn’t have time to look at it on that day. I confirmed with the cashier that they were sending us away with a vehicle with a steering issue and the cashier once again just said they could not look at it on that day which I was not asking them to do I just wanted to leave it and go off in a loaner that I was able to get under the extended warranty. We went to the second ford dealer that was closer to our home and they took the vehicle in and 2 different service writers stated they had never seen anything like this before. they had the vehicle for a total of 3 weeks to diagnosis and replace the steering wheel and try to get the wheel back into alignment which took 2 trips. The second visit we met with the master tech at Ford country who went for a drive with us and could see that the Ford emblem in the center of the wheel was not straight and it took them 2 or 3 attempts to get it straight and the master tech with 35 years of experience stated they had only seen this 1 other time in all their years of working on vehicles. I just do not have confidence in the vehicle any longer and just keep thinking about what if this happened while we were driving and not just in a parking lot. I no longer feel safe in the vehicle
