Defect Description:
ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
Potential Consequences:
The check engine light gave codes P0302 & P0316 and I had noticed the coolant level being low. After doing some research, I see that Ford issued a TSB 22-2229 as the fix for the problem which includes a new engine block because of a poor design for the coolant flow causing the block to crack. This should fall on to Ford to repair rather than people that expect and need their vehicle to last.

ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
Check engine light comes back on after several return trips to repair shop and several thousand dollars in repair cost. Issue is misfires. Plugs and coils have been replaced several times, as well as starter sensor but the problem persists. I understand this is an ongoing issue with countless 2017 Ford Edge owners. Not only is it costly, but the main issue is with safety as the engine may lose power while in transit, risking a hazardous situation for the occupants of the vehicle as well as other vehicles on the road. Just last week I brought the vehicle for yet another cylinder 1 misfire, to a different shop. It cost me $585 to repair. Two days ago the same cylinder started misfiring. Bringing it back to the shop yet again.

Today, during a routine tire replacement (4 tires) due to tire wear, I was told by Big Box service facility that the lug nuts on my vehicle all were swollen and they could not address as they had no parts. I consider this an unsafe condition that I have been put in. My next step is to take it to the dealer. I will keep you posted!

WHEELS
Potential Consequences:
I took my 2017 Ford Edge to a Ford Dealer to get an oil change and tires rotating on he rear of the vehicle; however, they told me that the lug nuts on both rear wheels have the two piece lug nuts that Ford put on several of their vehicles that have swollen and delaminated rendering the vehicle’s lug wrench and their wrench useless. So needless to say, they were not able to fulfill the works service I pad for that included the oil change, fluid check and tire rotation. So in the event I get a flat tire, or when I decide to get new tires, I'm going to have to a Ford dealer and pay a premium for tires (I just had the front tires done 2 weeks agao and got Goodyear ties for $161 each, whereas Ford quoted me almost $260 per for the same tire). And they said they'd also have the charge me to drill, use a cutting torch and something else to get the lug nut off without damaging the wheel stud; they didn't give me a cost estimate on that, but going to assume it's between $50-100. So instead of paying $320 for 2 reach tires like i did 2 weeks, I'd be looking at between $570 - $620 for 2 rear tires because Ford decided to use some cheap lug not that they know are defective, but continue to use them?? I thought the nhtsa was supposed to help consumers and not allow companies to continue taking advantage of consumers. However, I also submitted something to you about 6-9 months ago on this same vehicle. Ford has a 2.0 Ecoboost Engine in many vehicles and thousands if not hundreds of thousands have had to replace engines because of Ford's design that causes the cylinder tor something to crack and then coolant leaks into the motor. The only option once this occurs is to sale to another unexpected buyer, or do want my wife and I had to do and pay Ford another $8500 to put a new motor in, which will probably fail again. So please do something; Ford should not be allowed to continue use defective parts with no recalls, as Ford has already gotten their thousands.
