I have a 2016 Ford Edge. In
I have a 2016 Ford Edge. In November 2022 (with approx 114,000 miles), I had the acceleration problem and white smoke. The local dealer diagnosed it as needing valve cover and gasket replacement with a few other smaller issues. I learned of al the issues with this engine and contacted Ford Corporation. They paid 80% of my bill. However, the local dealer took over 3 months to get the job done! I said many times that I suspected it would need a new engine. They test drove it for 60 miles after their repairs and said no lights were on so it was good. I drove it for 2 weeks and the engine light came on. Yes, I needed a new engine. It has now been with the local dealer for over 3 weeks and still not complete. I contacted Ford Corp again and they said it's "not related" to the first issue and basically gave me a run around. They are paying 60% of my bill this time. I said many times this should be a recall!
