Probably have a 30 day b2b courtesy of the selling dealership, common practice. If so, I'd take full advantage and report every complaint now.

Wife spoke with the dealer the other day and he glossed it over.

I'm pretty sure they are going to blow it off.

Yes that is most definitely the intent!

I took it out for a little testing in a large parking lot. I think I got the shudder/thump when it shifted from 2nd to 1st. I was doing about 15-20 MPH and was applying the brakes. I say "I think" because it only did it the one time and then i was unable to reproduce. I'll try again later though.

No CPO as it had 62000 miles on it. The warranty was on engine only for 50% of costs.

Hopefully something as simple as a fluid change is all that is needed. Like I said, I'd be really bent if they sold me a vehicle in need of major repairs (I consider 2 grand pretty major) in under a week of ownership.

I believe you are looking for this TSB:

AWD VEHICLES - SHUDDER/CHATTER/VIBRATION ON TURNS OR THUMP/CLUNK NOISE ON LIGHT ACCELERATION - BUILT 10/1/2009 TO 12/31/2009

 

Seems like a PTU replacement is recommended.

I'm not sure if this applies to ours (Im not sure if the one I mentioned does either) since it is a 2013 but I'm going to be seriously BENT if the vehicle I bought used from a ford dealership needs $2000 of repairs in the first week of ownership. I get it that we bought a used car but I expect my $23,000 purchase was for a properly functioning vehicle, not one that came with some very expensive repairs required right out of the gate.

We have put less than 300 miles on it and will be calling them on Monday. Hopefully this can get sorted out. They were certainly good to work with on the sales side but then again... arent they all?

I did find this but it appears it was in the 2010 Edge, not the 2013. Maybe it was never really fixed?

Date Announced:

SEPTEMBER 01 2010

Summary: FORD: 2010 ALL WHEEL DRIVE VEHICLES MAY HAVE A SHUDDER/VIBRATION OR A CLUNK NOISE WHILE DRIVING IN LOW SPEEDS. *RM

That pretty much sums up what I am experiencing...

Just joined the forum because of this very same issue. My wife and I picked up a 2013 Edge Limited last week and twice have heard a very audible clunk noise while decelerating. Obviously as a new owner of a used car that is out of warranty we are both really concerned.

I am dreading the thought of transmission work being needed and I certainly hope the Ford dealer makes right on this.
