Yep, I'm concerned about this place. I don't owe money for 2 alternators. My dilemma is if I take it to a dealer and they need to replace the "just replaced" alternator, I will probably have to tow it back to the shop for them to deal with it and then take it back to the dealer for a look-over so nothing else blows up.

Thanks for the info. I think it might be too late, though I will re-state. This car is KILLING me....! I had the shop re-check the charging system. Everything checked out OK, still getting charging system alarms until yesterday. Dash lit up like a christmas tree and car is dead. I had it towed in again......verdict......ECU is bad. Possible that bad alternator replacement cooked the ECU? I am considering getting this to a dealer, however, I will not pay for 2 alternator replacements. Thoughts? comments? Yes we've already replaced the engine due to coolant intrusion. I am dumping this thing soon.

This car is KILLING me....! Just went through battery/alternator replacement on my 2018 Edge. I still get a " check charging system" alarm. I took it back to the shop that did the work and they ran diagnostics saying that everything checks out OK. Does anyone have the official BMS reset procedure for a 2018 Ford Edge. I suspect that it needs to be "calibrated". Thanks

Yes...I have a 2018 Ford Edge with ~78,000 miles.... Yes I got the misfire on Cylinder 2 code which led me down the horrifying path of the dreaded coolant intrusion issue. I usually take my work to independent shops. My questions: 1.) Would it be best to go to a Ford dealership for diagnosis and, ultimately, the inevitable long block replacement? 2.) I believe that I saw that there is an updated cylinder block that resolves the cylinder wall issue that is the cause of this problem. What would be the best way to confirm that I get the correct updated block? 3.) Is there an engine warranty once this is replaced? 4.) Any news on the class action lawsuit regarding this known design flaw?
