Ford 2016 AWD + Oil Leakage (PTU ,Engine)

A general inspection from below should include particular attention to the PTU and maybe the RDU. Any engine oil leaks also. Check for any seepage and/or tell tale signs of water pump leaks. Any foaminess in the oil should be concerning. Any seepage out of the shocks or struts? Check for radiator leaks. Any hydraulic fluid around the brake assemblies? I'm rambling now but the mechanic should know what to look for.

Good luck! I also have a 2016 Edge getting ready to go out of warranty but I'm terrified! I have been dealing with a chronic oil leak since we bought the car new! 

The oil pan has been replaced three times, all the seals and gaskets have been replaced, the nuts and bolts are all replaced and even the sealants are new. 

This car has been in the shop so many times for leaking oil that I've only had to have the oil changed once using their lifetime oil plan! We actually have just opened a

case with Ford on this car because of all the problems we have had with it.

 

I'm actually at the point now that I feel unsafe driving this car, especially on any kind of trip longer than an hour. I just brought the car home from the shop yesterday and my garage already smells like burning oil.
