My 2015 Ford Edge has an inoperative power liftgate. The problem started about a week ago. I would press the lift button and it would work inconsistently. Finally, yesterday, after buying groceries, I attempted to open the liftgate. It stopped leaving a crack. I attempted to pry it open with my fingers and all of a sudden, it started closing on me trapping two of my fingers. I was able to pry them out. It was was very painful and scary. I entered my car and the liftgate ajar light was on. I could do nothing about this. The next morning I learned that my battery was dead. I am now unable to use my car at all. Waiting for Ford to contact me to tow my car to the dealership for the repair.
Vehicle: 2015 Ford Edge with 2.0 Liter EcoBoost engine. Ref: DP26008 While driving, the "Engine Coolant Over Temperature" warning came on and the temperature level spiked and the check engine lights came on. Engine began to run really rough. At the time, I was travelling on the highway with my children in the car and had to pull off on the side of the road. After being stranded for 4 hours while waiting for a tow, I towed it to a Ford Dealership. Dealer confirmed there is coolant intrusion into the engine and referenced TSB 22-2229. Per dealer, vehicle needs a new engine.
I got engine coolant leaking into cylinder #2 with error p0302. Car running rough and will not accelerate. I have been told by Ford this is a known design flaw they fixed in later models but don't take responsibility. It was a safety issue for me when the car wasn't accelerating on the freeway when needed.
Engine failure due to coolant intrusion. Engine required replacement.
