The vehicle exhibits shuddering and hesitation during acceleration, which presents a potential safety hazard in daily driving conditions.  I brought the issue to a Ford dealership, and they confirmed that the problem is either a defective transmission or a failing torque converter. Despite the vehicle being relatively new and not yet paid off, I have been told that repairs may not be covered under warranty, potentially leaving me with thousands of dollars in out-of-pocket costs.  This issue is deeply concerning, not only because of the financial burden but also due to the apparent pattern of similar problems in previous model years of the Ford Edge, which leads me to believe that Ford may have been aware of this design or manufacturing defect and failed to resolve it in newer models.  A transmission failure or torque converter malfunction at speed could result in a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash or injury. Given the number of similar reports online and in consumer forums, I urge the NHTSA to investigate this issue thoroughly and determine whether a recall or broader corrective action is warranted.  Thank you for your attention to this matter.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2021","productMake":"FORD","productModel":"EDGE","manufacturer":"Ford Motor Company"}]}]}
