2020 Ford Edge Steering Problems

“I noticed a knocking in the left front end. It was difficult to steer, very loud rumbling noise like gears clashing. Luckily I was only going 25 MPH when it happened and a mile away from home. When I almost stopped couldn't steer at all. Purchased october 27, 2020, it is currently january 13, 2021 and has 601 miles on it. It has been in the shop for 3 days. Ford dealership verified that is was a factory weld failure. The piece that broke off made a notch in the tire which will be shown in the photos. …”

“Transmission has catastrophic failure and exploded while driving. Many components missing chunk of metal and or just completely mangled after explosion from under car when had to me turned 35°-50° to go straight. Went to Google my issue and say the 2020, Ford edge had 3 recalls for transmission issues but for certain ones and mine want listed but had done a good amount of damage”

“Forward collision warning stopped working which in turn caused the cruise control to not work. Then the PSCM (power steering control module) just went out all at once. Was driving and it showed warning on the dash. I drove on and parked. When I went to start back, it started fine but couldn’t move steering wheel. I’m seeing this has been a problem with other owners and the same year model. Ford has done a recall on edge for years around 2020 but not that particular year. Gonna cost $2772.59 to fix at dealership. …”

“Have had issues from day one. Lane centering hugs middle line, back up camera is black at times, when in drive screen is blank, all tools on steering have went out including turn signals, cruse control, collision avoidance flashes when no one is in front of me, brakes due to collision avoidance malfunction etc. in November 2021 car was in park ( know that for sure it was in park and not moving as fed ex came for delivery and walked around back of car to get package before accident) and rolled to front pinning me and breaking pelvis and back. …”

“While driving the HVAC stops working, radio locks at current setting (cannot turn volume up or down, etc.), screen goes blank or locks, windows do not open or close. Their are multiple warnings about sensors not working. Malfunctioning driver assist jerks wheel when driving through a restaraunt drive-thru. Had the sensor replaced for the adaptive cruise control and it did not correct the cruise issue. The issue initially started with the monitor screen going blank randomly and then progressing to the above issues. This had been happening for the last 2 or 3 years before the above accured.”
