Pam LCB Posted June 26, 2022 Report Share Posted June 26, 2022 I am currently having the exact same issue with the same model and year. I’m curious what was the solution? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pam LCB Posted June 28, 2022 Report Share Posted June 28, 2022 I don’t have an Eco boost engine. The water pump has been suggested, I’m more inclined to think computer or drive train related. Putting the car in neutral will bring the temp gauge down to normal. It’s definitely a head scratcher Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What are the issues you're having and what have you looked at? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jhensley1607 Posted July 25, 2022 Report Share Posted July 25, 2022 Add another one to the list. 2016, just turned 70K miles, and thankfully got the Carmax Maxcare warranty. Maintained to a tee like all my cars. Had a rough idle, and then a day later a CEL. Opened the hood and was astounded to find the coolant resevoir almost empty. Pulled codes and got the P301, then looked on here and knew I had an issue. Must have started pretty quickly - I always eyeball the coolant tanks when checking oil, etc under the hood. It's been at the Ford dealer for 8 days, still waiting for the Maxcare warranty inspector to go visit and confirm it's toast (Dealer said they have to do this all the time).

Update - was out of commission for 3 weeks at the Ford dealer but just got it back with a new 2022 Valencia produced long block. Thanks to Carmax warranty was $300 instead of the $7,940 total on the 6 page bill. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UntitledCackle Posted August 29, 2022 Report Share Posted August 29, 2022 Are there any reports of this affecting Edges from 2019 and onward even if unacknowledged by this TSB? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edgy2019 Posted September 29, 2022 Report Share Posted September 29, 2022 My wife’s 2019 Ford Edge Ecoboost was sputtering during acceleration between the 1500 and 2300 RPM range in traffic. I changed the spark plugs thinking that may help. Now, the car idles rough, acts like it wants to die, and smells like rotten eggs from the exhaust. Any suggestions??

1004ron Posted September 29, 2022 Report Share Posted September 29, 2022 The rotten egg smell from the exhaust is the reaction of unburnt fuel in the Catalytic Convertor, and will shorten the life of the CAT. Get the error codes read - it could be a misfire due to a bad coil, or a bad injector, but the codes will be a good starting point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edgy2019 Posted September 29, 2022 Report Share Posted September 29, 2022 Thanks for the reply. I don’t have any error codes or a CEL. I just tried starting it again after leaving the battery unplugged for the day (not that it would help) and it smells like it’s running rich.

Perblue Posted September 29, 2022 Report Share Posted September 29, 2022 Take it to the dealer the drive train is covered for 5 years 60k miles. Otherwise double check that the coil packs are seated right and that the connectors to them are fully plugged in and not loose, what you did shouldn't make it run worse.

Don't need the CEL on for codes to be stored. What's the mileage and is still under warranty? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edgy2019 Posted September 29, 2022 Report Share Posted September 29, 2022 I didn’t know I could pull codes without the Check Engine Light on. There are 68k miles on it so it is out of warranty unfortunately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best get a decent OBDII device and with that use Forscan to scan for codes, or try Autozone or places like that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edgy2019 Posted October 5, 2022 Report Share Posted October 5, 2022 Well everyone, Thank you for the reply’s and help. Took it to our family mechanic (25years as a Ford Mechanic). He said that I am getting coolant in cylinders 3&4 and that apparently the Edges had that problem. Looks like I’m going to have to buy a motor.

Rdgtchr Posted October 9, 2022 Report Share Posted October 9, 2022 That same thing happened to me with my 2015 Escape at about the same mileage. If you frequent a Ford dealer go there first or go where you bought the car if it was a Ford dealership. They get $ from Ford to use for good customers for things like this. Then call corporate and talk to them about this. We did both of these things and because we are long time Ford owners (they can look it up and see) they worked with us and we were only out of pocket $2500. Not $0 but a lot less than the original. I just bought a 2021 Edge, I hope this doesn’t happen again! ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Bill Posted October 13, 2022 Report Share Posted October 13, 2022 I have a 2018 Edge 2.0, 80k miles in my shop with the water intrusion issue. Low compression on #4. I understand the issue was resolved with the 2020 model year engine. I have a question, perhaps for a Ford tech. Can I replace the engine with a 2020 model from a wrecked vehicle? Is the long block assy the same externally?, What compatibility issues might I face? I have searched and can not find the info. Thank you.

Lincoln_ Posted November 3, 2022 Report Share Posted November 3, 2022 Hello everyone, a query, they have replaced the engine long block, as indicated the TSB , https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2022/MC-10210391-0001.pdf, or there is an alternative solution such as a sealant in the coagulant or similar.

cherylwilson91 Posted November 14, 2022 Report Share Posted November 14, 2022 I have a 2019 Edge SE that has been giving me problems since day one. I took it in 2 weeks after i bought it because it didnt sound good, they change some high pressure fuel thing, explained that is was still doing the same thing and getting worst. I have had several open tickets on it with manufacture and never anything was always told that it is normal. However here we are in 2022 and now its so bad that it keeps throwing a power train malfunction wrench on the dash and my ford pass app is telling me that my cars health check is all good and the fluid levels are all ok but they are not because the coolant level has been going down for months and there is no leak and now the car is idling high so it jerks when going form park to reverse and when driving the car shifts so crazy and the rpm gauge is moving up and down. Can anyone tell me what i should do i feel like im at my whits end with ford Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haz Posted November 15, 2022 Report Share Posted November 15, 2022 Depending upon the Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) involved in triggering the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL), and whether your Edge is exhibiting any white smoke/steam out of the tailpipe which may be related to the low coolant condition, you may want to print this Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) and take it with you to the dealership...

Edgy2019 Posted November 17, 2022 Report Share Posted November 17, 2022 ***UPDATE*** Well, we replaced the motor with a new one from Ford. $6,000 later, it’s still sputtering. Looks like we are going to be checking the sensors on the transmission now. Yay!!!!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cherylwilson91 Posted December 4, 2022 Report Share Posted December 4, 2022 took the paper with me to ford and lets just say that the coolant is leaking out the egr cooler and my torque converter is stuck so 12880 is what they say will cost to fix everything, thank god for mechanical breakdown insurance.? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
