UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Potential Consequences:
Floor board got flooded with water! The back seam that is in the roof is faulty. The seam is above opening when lift gate is up ( not the seal around the gate). Front, midde and compartment with the spare was drenched. Water ran down the pillars ( nose was angled up). Ford refused to give any assistance. My concern is all the electrical components can be dangerous and the possibility of mold on the inside. Our 3/36 warranty has expired 4,000 miles ago and out on the time by around 6 mos. We have owned the ford less than a year and it has a clean history report. This is a part that should seal the roof. We have never touched it and until pointed out, wasn't aware of it. Other owners should be aware of this. What other damages can not be seen?

ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
2018 Ford Edge Titanium. Approximately 90000 miles on car and experiencing an engine misfire on cylinder 3. Dealer says antifreeze (which has recently been losing coolant on a constant basis) is leaking into the cylinder causing the misfire. Claims only fix currently is to replace engine at a substantial cost to me. I have read a few Ford forums for the 2.0 Liter engine and find this to be a symptomatic problem that Ford is not repairing in good faith due to a manufacturing issue.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
The rear hatch, yes it's available for inspection. It closed on me while trying to get items out of the back of the SUV. I opened the hatch from the drivers control panel leaving the car running in park, then tried to get items out of the back. While I was under the hatch it closed on me. I was unable to stop it from coming down on my back/shoulder despite pushing back against it with my arms against the floor. I ultimately had to jump into the back of the vehicle where the hatch closed on my foot and locked. I tried to open it again using the push button on the outside of the hatch, it closed again, I was unable to stop it from closing and locking again while trying to lift it from the outside. It did this four times in a row. The only "unusual" thing was that this was during an ice storm. I have tried to reproduce it several times since with no luck, also there are no freezing temperatures now. No, I have not taken it to a dealership yet but will this week. I do not know if there were warning lights since I was in the back of the vehicle, but it did sound the tone that you hear when the lid is closing by its own power luckily which alerted me that it was closing. This has never happened, it closed with force four times, and I was unable to stop it

Potential Consequences:
We took our 2018 Ford Edge with 63000 miles in for oil change and brake line recall to Koucerek Ford in Wausau, Wi.. We notified them that it seems to be losing antifreeze since December. They called and informed us that the coolant is leaking into cylinders 2 and 3 and we need a new motor at a cost of $6200.00. I called Ford customer care and was denied any compensation because it was 3000 miles beyond the warranty.
