Some Ford Edge owners report experiencing significant oil leaks, with some losing a quart every other day, which necessitates immediate attention to prevent engine damage. These leaks can stem from common issues such as worn-out drain plugs, damaged gaskets, or failures in oil system components. Additionally, there have been recalls for certain Ford Edge models related to oil leaks from engine oil pan RTV seals and previous coolant leaks, highlighting a history of leak-related problems. Owners are encouraged to verify if their vehicle is subject to any recalls by checking with the Lemon Law Experts or their Ford owner account, as recalls are typically tracked by VIN through NHTSA. Safety concerns have also been raised regarding repairs that failed to address gasoline leaks in Ford SUVs, underscoring the importance of promptly addressing any oil leak issues. Given the severity of these leaks, it is advisable for owners to consult a qualified mechanic to identify and resolve the source of the leak, and to follow up on any potential recalls for their safety and vehicle longevity.
