Questions About 2018 Ford Edge’s Transmission

  • What happens if I "ride" my Ford's brakes? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Ford? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Edge’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Edge is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • Does my Edge's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Maintaining your Ford Edge transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. About every 30,000 to 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your transmission fluid inspected and perhaps changed. Service intervals can vary depending on how you use your Ford, so check with your technician first. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can transmission fluid leak from my Ford Edge? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Ford Edge, potentially causing transmission problems. A transmission fluid leak may be caused by a damaged transmission pan, faulty transmission cooler lines, worn-out seals, a cracked transmission housing, or an overfilled transmission.

A transmission fluid leak may lead to decreased performance, overheating, and possibly even transmission failure.
