In owners' own words
â¢Torque converter failure diagnosed by dealership available for inspection until scheduled repair work. â¢In danger of complete failure; could cause highway accident if sudden failure or personal danger if broken down along roadways. â¢Only inspected by dealership service dept. â¢No indicator lights or warning lamps. I did notice RPM gauge needle jumping slightly several weeks before shudder was felt physically. Power train
The vehicle has experienced transmission issues. I received a powertrain malfunction light in August, and the car suddenly had trouble shifting in low gears resulting in jerking. When driving, it continued to have issues. Then, it wouldn't go into reverse and the jerking increased before having it towed to get evaluated. There were no signs and it appears that MANY of these transmissions are reported to have issues. Power train
The contact owns a 2019 Ford Edge. The contact stated that the dealer had previously repaired the vehicle under an unknown TSB for the torque converter shudder; however, the failure persisted. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer, who determined that the transmission needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 110,000. Power train · reported at 110,000 miles
