My 2015 Edge is currently in the shop for this same issue. They are telling us that if they just replace the Flexplate the same issue will occur in 20,000 miles. Dealership reccomends replacing the small block which would run $7,800 or the whole engine at 8500.
Edge only has 64,000 on it. I bought it used and have only put 12,545 miles on it in the last 18 months.
CarFax did show that the transmission was already replaced. I am wishing I never bought the car. Clearly this is a manufacturing defect. The dealership called Ford and Ford said they would offer no assistance in repairs. I am going to call Ford on Monday and see if I can get anywhere.
Has anyone out there actually replaced the small block and still had issues?
