Loud Noise and Vibration from the Shift Knob


Recommended Posts

I am getting a loud noise and vibration from the shift knob when accelerating up a moderate hill. Any one else have these problems/would you guys bring this to a dealership to get looked at? The car only has 2k miles (1,998) and purchased 2 months ago.

 

Thanks Edgers!!

 

Hey Michael Sherrod,

 

I just replied to your post on another thread (regarding weather stripping). Check it out. :)

Transmission. Its naughty. I would go into details. But a member already complained that I complained about the edges transmission. So if you Google ford edge transmission problem, you will find lots of people with the same symptoms. Hard traumatic bump out of nowhere. Feels like someone tear ended you. But I'll stop here before the member reads this post. He will freak!

2011edgese, I may be the member you are referring to regarding your posts about the transmission thump. I posted that you had hi-jacked a different thread totally unrelated to the transmission problem with your complaints about it. You also posted that you didn't want to take it in to the dealership because you didn't want to deal with a run around if they couldn't duplicate the problem.

 

The transmission is causing problems for some owner's and there are several TSB's that have been issued. I would suggest that you take it to a dealer with those TSB's and see if they can help you. Here is a link with information for the TSB's. It has helped some owner's, others not so much. I see you have read it and posted a question on it, but right now it might be the best way to address your transmission concern.

I have experienced the "bang" one time in my 2013 Edge Limited. I was driving on the freeway about 60 MPH when suddenly I heard a loud "bang" from the rear of the vehicle. I thought someone had hit me, or that I ran over something in the road and it hit the underbody. When I got off the freeway I checked for damages but saw nothing. I even posted on this forum about it but can't find the post now. It was about 1 1/2 years ago from what I recall. Only the one time, never happened again. I have 27000 miles now.

 

Good luck to those who are experiencing the hard shift or "bang" in their transmissions. Get it documented with your dealer now even if they say they couldn't find anything wrong. Having it on record may be helpful in the future.
