Gelreat car for the most part.
Gelreat car for the most part. I got it used with 125k miles. So far so good knock on wood on engine coolant leak issues. But the only downside and i've never had major bad luck with ford. Except on those junky focus transmissions 2012 to 2018. Well I got 170k miles on it and my flex plate is bad or cracked. My understanding is the issue is cause by torque converter weld stud bolts not welded properly from factory. I have been confirmed by my mechanic that it is flex plate rattle. Whats crazy is there is a csp on it for that same flex plate rattle but im over the 120k mile mark. But other ford edges with my same 2.0 engine on the 2017 year model have a recall for torque converter welds and recalls are unlimited mileage. I think thats what caused my flex plate issue. I understand normal wear and tear but 170k mile when i have taken care of it, that dont seem fair.

Do not buy the 2017 2.
Do not buy the 2017 2.0L turbo-charged titanium. It will break your heart and pocketbook! Bought mine used at 75k miles. Kept all maintenance up to date. Initially had problem w door weather stripping on rear doors. Poor design and was repaired right away with a cheap Ford customer support bulletin job. No problem until about 130K. The transmission literally fell apart! Flex plate cracked and needs to be replaced, torque converter needs to be replaced and the transmission pump as well. This is a much more common problem than Ford wants us to know. They have recalled select Edge and MKX vehicles built within a tiny window of time for this problem. Way more vehicles, including mine, are affected than Ford wants all to know. The problem started with an “innocuous” stall as I accelerated from a stop, turning onto a busy 55 mph road. Luckily I was able to pull over immediately onto the shoulder. We could have been T-boned and maybe killed! No problems after that for a couple of weeks and then an awful racket and the shifting/downshifting issues began between 2 and 3k rpms. It would rattle at idle and as I first accelerated, but was quiet as long as I stayed at about 45 mph. There was a terrific revving and racket if the car shifted automatically while climbing or descending even slight hills. The repair is NOT covered under any current Ford program or my extended warranty.

My wife and I purchased our 2017 Ford Edge Titanium new
My wife and I purchased our 2017 Ford Edge Titanium new back in 2017. Great car for the first several years of ownership. At around 80k miles we noticed the car was consuming engine coolant at a faster rate than it should. We then began to notice a "sloshing" sound behind the dash along with rough idling. The issue got worse and the car began misfiring and jerking with a flashing check engine light indicator. We took it to our local Ford dealer and was told that the cause of the issue is engine coolant intrusion into cylinder #1. The only solution is a complete engine replacement. This is caused by a design flaw with the 2.0L EcoBoost engines (you can read about this issue for yourself on the internet). We haven't heard the final word from our dealership, but understand that Ford is charging its customers thousands of dollars to replace an engine that they poorly designed. I would not recommend someone purchase a used Ford Edge unless the engine had already been replaced. Very frustrating!
