Filed Oct 13, 2026 · Engine · CA

Vehicle: 2015 Ford Edge with 2.0 Liter EcoBoost engine. Ref: DP26008 While driving, the "Engine Coolant Over Temperature" warning came on and the temperature level spiked and the check engine lights came on. Engine began to run really rough. At the time, I was travelling on the highway with my children in the car and had to pull off on the side of the road. After being stranded for 4 hours while waiting for a tow, I towed it to a Ford Dealership. Dealer confirmed there is coolant intrusion into the engine and referenced TSB 22-2229. Per dealer, vehicle needs a new engine.

Purchased car used from CarMax late 2024. Soon after 90 day Carmax warranty expired, the check engine light can on. Errors indicated engine missing on cyl #2 and that the O2 sensor was underperforming. Also, white smoke (steam) coming out of exhaust pipe. And, coolant fluid was all of a sudden low. I determined that there was a head gasket leak. As a repair was out of the question at the estimated cost of $6000, I elected to attempt to use a chemical stop leak. The #2 Oxygen sensor was replaced in order to acquire new CA tags. To date no repair has been performed. Car will over heat on highway if very hot weather and long grade is driven.

The transmission in my 2015 Ford Edge completely broke at about 73000 miles. I heard a LOUD "clunk" sound at a red light, and the vehicle does not accelerate at all. The check engine light also came on. I had it inspected by a certified mechanic, and the entire transmission needs replacement. Apparently the particular transmission in this vehicle has an extremely high failure rate, and Ford needs to take responsibility for this incredibly expensive failure.

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? The flexible brake hose on my 2015 Ford Edge failed/broke shortly after I purchased the vehicle. The vehicle also began experiencing engine performance issues, including a rough idle and rough driving condition after the check engine light came on. The vehicle and failed brake hose should be available for inspection upon request. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? The broken flexible brake hose created a serious safety risk because it could affect the vehicle’s braking ability and increase the risk of losing control or being unable to stop safely. The rough engine performance also caused concerns about the reliability and safe operation of the vehicle while driving. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? The issue has been observed and experienced consistently while driving the vehicle. The brake hose damage and rough engine performance were noticeable after the vehicle was purchased. (If a mechanic has looked at it, you can add: “An independent mechanic/dealership confirmed the brake hose was damaged.”) Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? I have taken it to the dealership and they said nothing about it but I got it diagnosed at autozone and the code came up right away. Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? Approximately 2–3 weeks after purchasing the vehicle, the check engine light came on and the vehicle began running roughly. Around the same time, issues related to the broken flexible brake hose were discovered. Symptoms included rough driving performance and concerns with the braking system

My 2015 Ford Edge suddenly turned into a nightmare on what started as a normal drive. I noticed the temperature gauge climbing quickly, the engine started overheating, and then the check engine light came on. Almost at the same time, the engine began feeling like it was slipping—power dropped off, it hesitated and ran rough under acceleration, almost as if the transmission were slipping, but it was the engine itself struggling from poor lubrication. Turns out coolant had gotten into the oil (a pretty common headache with these 3.5L V6 models, often from a failing internal water pump). The mixture turned my oil into a gross, milky sludge that couldn't lubricate the engine properly anymore, leading to overheating and a slipping sensation as things started to bind up inside. I had to pull over quickly before it got even worse—definitely not something I want to go through again.

2.0L EcoBoost engine and coolant intrusion. Coolant leaked into two of the cylinder heads, resulting in engine failure and the need for a full engine replacement.Initially, the vehicle would not start. A tow company technician was able to get the vehicle started, after which I was advised to drive directly to my mechanic. I was informed that the exhaust smelled like diesel fuel and that if the engine were shut off, it was highly unlikely to restart. At that point, the check engine light illuminated. The dealership confirmed the coolant instrusion and the need for a new engine.

Recently my Check Engine Light came on and I had the vehicle diagnosed with a local repair shop. The code P0301:00-EC was pulled from the vehicles scan. Upon further research this code is linked to TSA 19-2208 issued 06/27/2019. Ford knew that the engine design was flawed and only issued a TSA bulletin. This issue could cause catastrophic engine failure and fire. This issue is not a maintenance issue but a serious flaw from the manufacturer. There is also a class action lawsuit, Miller, et al. vs. Ford Motor Company - Case No: [XXX] filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of California. I am hoping that you will take interest in this, as there are probably many 2nd or 3rd owners of these vehicles that are unaware of the severity of the engine flaw. My vehicle has been at the Robinson Ford in Baton Rouge LA since 06/17/2025, and the cost of the new engine is 9600.00. I'm thankful that driving the vehicle from NC to LA no incidents occurred and I was able to have the issue diagnosed before there was.
