Dealers will update the rearview camera software, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed July 28, 2025. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 25S72.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Potential Consequences:

While our vehicle hasnt been in an accident yet, the issue could possibly lead into one. Our vehicle is having transmission problems. Ford knows there is an issue with the trans. I have called them an spoke to someone but i forget his name. The issue is the computer needs flashed and updated with new shifting points. At low speeds or if your barely on the gas, the trans bucks,sputters and has issues driving smooth. Our vehicle only has 85k miles on it, the issue started about 5k miles ago. I have asked the people of reddit on the issue. Many people responded saying they have gotten theres fixed or the trans goes out. Seems like its a very expensive (to me) fix and i feel as though that since it is a known issue that Ford should be the one paying to flash and update shift points on there products. Its bad enough we pay an avg of 600 a month for our vehicles. Now why cant they make it rite and fix a known issue. I dont know if you guys can help push the issue and see about getting this taken care of. All help is appreciated.

AIR BAGS

Potential Consequences:

Ford designed the vehicle with soy based insulation on the wires in the wiring harness, this attracts rodents which eat away at the wiring harness. Ford is aware of this but refuses to compensate or repair the damage. When the harness is compromised the tail lights, passenger airbag, passenger seatbelt and cross traffic warning indicators do not work. This presents multiple safety issues. The vehicle has been diagnosed by ford stating the damage was caused by rodents entering the passenger compartment through the outside vent of the heating system. My vehicle has been repaired three times for the same issue. Ford has refused to warrantee any damage and has tld me to turn it in to my insurance which I had done. this has caused my insurance premium to increase due to the claim. I have all the documentation from the occurrences and the transcript of my conversation with Ford customer service. I want at minimum the vehicle fixed or replaced at Fords expense. Previously Ford had spoken with my insurance company and told them the harness needed to be spliced, they did not replace the entire harness this caused the rodents to return and damage more of the harness..

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:TORQUE CONVERTER

Potential Consequences:

The contact owns a 2020 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while driving in third gear, the transmission was skipping and the vehicle shuddered. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, where the failure could not be replicated. The vehicle was then taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed that the torque converter had failed and needed to be replaced. The dealer informed the contact that the vehicle was not covered under warranty due to the mileage. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 60,200.

POWER TRAIN

Potential Consequences:

Rear Drive Unit/Differential has failed. This is the second time in 4 years that it has failed leading to drivetrain issues to the rear wheels. I'm not sure how significant an incident would be if the Rear Power Transfer Unit fails while drive at highway speeds. Ford has released Technical Service Bulletins for the problem, so they are aware that there is an ongoing issue. Yet is is the owners responsibility to make the repairs. I have attached a copy of the receipt from the first repair. The vehicle is currently at the same dealership for the same issue. This time, the dealer claims I need to replace the entire Rear Drive Unit at my expense.

POWER TRAIN

Potential Consequences:

Power Train has failed multiple times on this vehicle. It loses power on the highway, reverses when in drive, and does not shift down to make the vehicle slow to a safe speed. This puts me and others in danger because you can not predict that or when there will be a failure that hits a person or other car. This has been taken to a mechanic and confirmed as power train failure in a 4 year old, 100K mile car. Ford claims no recalls even though the same recall exists for other makes and models of the same kind with different VINS. Has thrown multiple codes.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING

Potential Consequences:

The Forward Collision Warning system became inoperative because of a failed electronic module. The dealership indicated that the self test ipma code u3009-49 test diagnostic called for the ipma replacement and programing. The failure of this component endangers pedestrians, other vehicles and passengers by failing to stop the vehicle when an imminent collision is about to occur. Given the 63,000 kilometres of this vehicle when the module failed, its expected life of 250,000 kilometres, the cost of replacing this component during its life, at more than 20% of the purchase price of the vehicle, is ridiculously high.
