    Catalytic converter

    ""Started 5 months ago. it is still present and will require a new catalytic converter. Basically, the error code says the catalytic converter is not running at optimum efficiency.""

    Anonymous, MI (2014 Ford Edge SEL 2.0-L 4 Cyl turbo)
    Other exhaust system problem

    "Check engine light appears when gas is too full Consistently appears disappears. Common problem with 2014 fords. You cannot pump own gas in my state so many times the car will smell like gasoline after getting gas even when I ask them not to fill it."

    Anonymous A., NJ (2014 Ford Edge Limited 3.7-L V6)

    Other/unsure

    "On 8/01/2019 with 33,770 miles on the odometer I bought a set of four Yokohama YK 740 GTX tires with 60,000 mile warranty. On 2/22/2025 with 60,600 miles on the odometer I had to replace 1 tire due to a serious (I could see the steel belting) seperation in the tire, all around the circomferance in the middle of the outtermost tread row. On 5/19/2025 with 61,019 miles on the odometer, I had to replace 2 more tires for the identical seperation problem but I caught it before it before it was as dangerous as the first one. I was unable to convince the store manager to replace the 4th tire as I am confident there was some common problem in all 4. All 3 of these tires were replaced under the service certificates I had purchased from Discount Tire when I bought them. I am now nervosly driving along on the last of the origional set as I see cracking beginning in the same location as the other 3 seperated."
