POWER TRAIN, SERVICE BRAKES, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL
While driving on the highway I experienced an apparent loss of power. It happened on an uphill grade and persisted for the duration of my trip – approximately 25 miles. The problem seemed to only occur on an uphill or flat road. The problem was not evident going downhill. Going home (approximately 32 miles) a few hours later the problem persisted. For about a week nothing happened, and then the problem reoccurred on the highway while coming back from dinner. Since then it has sporadically reappeared getting more frequent in the past few weeks. The symptoms are a complete loss of power, especially on an uphill grade. Lifting my foot off of the accelerator will temporarily bring power back, but trying to accelerate will cause the car to lose power again. If I continue to press the accelerator, the car will eventually come to a complete stop. Now the problem seems to happen at almost any speed and any road condition, uphill, flat, and occasionally downhill. During one occurrence I noticed something. When the problem happened I could see the brake light reflected on the rear window. So in addition to the loss of power, the brakes were activated without me applying the brakes. In discussions with the service manager at the dealership, we both believe the problem may be related in some way to the adaptive cruise control. It would make sense that if the adaptive cruise were activated not only would the brakes be applied, but the system would also shut down the engine. The car has been to the dealership four times for diagnosis. The last time they had it for more than a week. Neither they nor I can make the problem occur on demand.

SEAT BELTS
Rear Seat belt is wearing through at an a location close to a jagged edge of a trim cover. The belt is rarely used so the wear is not expected. The service technicians gave us several justifications but finally agreed that their reasoning was likely invalid. They contacted Ford for a service warrantee justification because the repair cost is $700 (seems high). Ford is refusing to pay to repair the belt. The attached pics show the problem and we are concerned that this could be a chronic issue that someone may not notice. We would like to know if there is a process to get assistance with the repair cost.

POWER TRAIN, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
Experienced harsh upshift and downshift causing vehicle to come to rigid stop and eventually loosing the ability to reverse. This is a serious safety concern to not only myself, but others on the road as my vehicle would not accelerate when coming to a complete stop at a stop sign or a red light, thus putting myself and others at risk of an accident. There were no warning lamps or messages that illuminated either on the dash or on the FordPass application to inform me of any issues that would require maintenance. My vehicle has been brought to a mechanic shop as I was told that the transmission needed to be replaced.

SEAT BELTS
Malfunctioning drivers seat belt that won’t extended consistently or once bucked it will inadvertently lock while leaning forward and then lock in jerky/slipping movements. The seatbelt sometimes can not even unlock and therefore cannot be used in the driver seat, putting the driver at risk in collision. The Ford service department would not recognize the problem until out of new car warranty. They have now diagnosed the problem and the new part is not available, putting the driver in a hazardous risk scenario

SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
Found 2 pea sized, spots of something on garage floor over 2 months period of time. Car had seemed to OK with exception of occasional delay in shifting gears. Returning from long drive home, car started jerking and studdering upon acceleration as merging onto highway. This happened several times throughout drive home. Could have been easily rear ended on busy highway, we were very nervous. The system light went on only during the intense jerking, when car was turned off, system light never turned back on when restarted. Vehicle Health report, did not detect any issues. Brought into dealership, they had 5 weeks total, was told needed new transmission and front brakes. They said “luck of the draw” was the cause of the transmission problem. $4800.00 Upon pickup of Edge, studdering noted in brakes. Returned car, another $500, they said rear brakes now needed. This was all after after a $1900 electrical fix. Total spent for this 2019 Edge has been $8000.00 plus for repair. Not right.

POWER TRAIN
2019 ford Edge SEL, FWD, Transmission problem. while driving on the high way, kicking and clunking and slipping, harsh upshift and downshift as well as harsh engagement. All the sudden loss of a power, and vehicle comes to stop. it is very very dangerous on a busy crowded highway which can cause serious accidents and purhaps death. I have contacted ford, and they refused to fix it . Ford is aware of it and they said they can not do anything about it till there will be a recall. My vehicle has only 400 miles passed the 60000 miles, but they refuse to honor the warranty repair on a defect design transmission that are having lots of issues with. I guess they are waitting for something bad to happen before they do anything.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Our 2019 Ford Edge started to have repeating issue with the Sync touch screen. The screen would turn blue and nothing can be done to reset it in the car. One time a when the screen went blue, I pulled over and turned the car for at least 30 minutes. And it still had an issue when I restarted the car. I went as far as disconnecting the battery in order to get the Sync system to reset. Ford needs to come up with a system update to fix this reoccurring problem.

VISIBILITY:SUN/MOON ROOF ASSEMBLY
I was driving and my moonroof (Vista roof) exploded while I was driving on the freeway and completely shattered. It sounded as if a gunshot went off and I was terrified I was being shot at. It was on a 4 lane highway with nowhere I could pull over so I continued until I got to work. The entire first panel had shattered immediately and luckily I had the fabric inside cover closed or I would have been covered in shatter glass. When the roof exploded, I was in traffic, it made me swerve in my lane with cars all around me. I was lucky enough to maintain my exposure so I could continue to drive and didn't cause an accident. This could have caused a horrible accident which would have involved the many drivers around me.

SEAT BELTS
Every 3rd or forth time bucking the drivers seat belt it will jam and lock prohibiting wearing the belt. To release you must continually pull belt until it stops (about 12" or so at a time) release it slightly and try to pull out more webbing. Other times it will release fully working normally. It happened one or twice about 8 months a go but the service writer at the dealer had a tech work on it and clear it. However lately it is happing frequently and will be taking to dealer this week.

ENGINE
Engine failed. Car was jumping and shaking out of control on the highway while I was going 60 mph and before I could pull of the highway it wouldn’t accelerate at all, and stopped directly in the middle of a busy highway.I could have been rear ended at a speed of 60 mph on a highway. It’s currently at Ford dealership. Before the car while parked made a gushing sound like water coming out of bath tub. After car started shaking check engine light and engine coolant over temperature came on.
