I have a 2022 Ford Edge with catastrophic internal mechanical failure of the 8F35 8-speed automatic transmission and torque converter assembly. This issue became substantially noticeable in early April of 2026 (probably earlier but I was unaware it was transmission issues) while on a road trip when the vehicle was delayed in shifting into gears after coming to a stop from park or at a stop light. Vehicle was brought to Advanced Auto Parts to have the diagnostics ran on the car. The only issue that came up was that the battery was getting to be towards end life and was advised I would need to replace by fall. At this time the car was around 50K miles. The issues progressively got worse over time when in August the car experienced full stalling moments when trying to turn left across several lanes of traffic putting both myself and family and others at risk of accidents. The car also began to have a shudder towards the end of August early September. At this time I had the battery replaced. The car ran better for a day and then the issues started back up again and finally a code to have the engine checked came on. Brought to an auto parts store and they advised no codes were pulling. I took the car to the dealership I purchased it from and they confirmed the car needed a replacement transmission. Scheduled an appointment at a Ford dealership to have the car examined and they confirmed the transmission issue and the need for a replacement. Now the car is 4K miles past the 60K mile window and I am being told that Ford will not assist with the repair. Car is currently at Ford dealership while navigating why assistance is being denied.
