Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain model year 2015-2016 Ford Edge vehicles manufactured February 9, 2015, to August 12, 2016. During dealer servicing, the affected vehicles may be have been updated with incorrect Antilock Brake System (ABS) and Electronic Stability Control (ESC) software. This software can cause the ESC system to lose engine torque control, and not provide any warning lamps to warn the driver if there was an ABS or ESC system malfunction. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 126, "Electronic Stability Control Systems" and number 135, "Light Vehicle Brake Systems."

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
The contact owns a 2015 Ford Edge. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V544000 (Service Brakes, Hydraulic); however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The local dealer was contacted and stated that the part was not yet available. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair.
ENGINE
2.0 eco boost turbo experiencing coolant loss and missfires on cold starts. Missfire had been chased by a mechanic. Parts replaced coil pack, spark plugs, spark plug boosts. Fuel system and mass airflow cleaned, pcv system changed. Problem sill a steady problem. Missfires, no heat due to coolant loss and engine overheating.
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,SERVICE BRAKES,ENGINE
My 2015 Ford Edge Titanium (VIN provided) suffered a catastrophic engine failure at 85,475 miles requiring a Ford long block replacement. After driving only 53,000 miles on the new corporate engine component, the vehicle began shaking violently and suffered a sudden, dangerous loss of power while driving, rendering it completely inoperable (it is sitting in my driveway unable to be driven). The vehicle threw critical fault codes P050B (Cold Start Ignition Timing) and P061B (Internal Control Module Torque Calculation Performance). Diagnostics indicate a terminal internal failure of the timing chain or torque converter. This vehicle has a severe, documented history of manufacturing and safety defects, including catalyst monitor sensor failure 08/23/16, fan relay failure 11/20/18, purge valve failure 02/27/21, a total loss of brakes while driving on 02/15/22 due to a rear caliper failure, a faulty throttle body on 03/06/22, and an incorrectly installed engine wiring harness by the dealership when engine was replaced. This list is not all inclusive. I have a 1.5" binder of repairs and services dating back to purchase date which are too numerous to attach. This failure directly mirrors the engine defect patterns currently being evaluated under NHTSA Defect Petition DP26008 / ODI 11754989.
ENGINE
Purchased car used from CarMax late 2024. Soon after 90 day Carmax warranty expired, the check engine light can on. Errors indicated engine missing on cyl #2 and that the O2 sensor was underperforming. Also, white smoke (steam) coming out of exhaust pipe. And, coolant fluid was all of a sudden low. I determined that there was a head gasket leak. As a repair was out of the question at the estimated cost of 6000, I elected to attempt to use a chemical stop leak. The #2 Oxygen sensor was replaced in order to acquire new CA tags. To date no repair has been performed. Car will over heat on highway if very hot weather and long grade is driven.
SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC,BACK OVER PREVENTION
The contact owns a 2015 Ford Edge. The contact stated that while reversing at approximately 5 MPH, the rear-view camera became darkened. No warning lights were illuminated. The contact received notifications of NHTSA Campaign Numbers: 25V572000 (Back Over Prevention) and 25V544000 (Service Brakes, Hydraulic); however, the parts to do the recall repairs were not yet available. The local dealer was contacted and confirmed that the remedy was not yet available. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.
UNKNOWN OR OTHER
The transmission in my 2015 Ford Edge completely broke at about 73000 miles. I heard a LOUD "clunk" sound at a red light, and the vehicle does not accelerate at all. The check engine light also came on. I had it inspected by a certified mechanic, and the entire transmission needs replacement. Apparently the particular transmission in this vehicle has an extremely high failure rate, and Ford needs to take responsibility for this incredibly expensive failure.
SERVICE BRAKES
Look like a year and there is still no remedy
POWER TRAIN
Car is running rough white smoke from exhaust and coolant level reservoir losing coolant
