Ford filed this with NHTSA as a service bulletin dated Jul 19, 2024, received Aug 6, 2024, about the forward collision avoidance. It names 3 model years (2022–2024).

Quoting the number at a service desk can save a diagnosis.

Source: NHTSA complaint databaseOwners of the 3 model years this bulletin names have filed 197 complaints with NHTSA since 2015. 10 of them name Forward Collision Avoidance — the same broad component group this bulletin is filed under. NHTSA groups complaints coarsely, so that means the same area of the vehicle, not necessarily the same fault.
The contact owns a 2022 Ford Edge. The contact stated while driving 65 MPH, the vehicle was significantly close to the vehicle in front of him; however, the Forward Collision Avoidance system failed to engage. A message indicating that the Forward Collision Avoidance sensors had failed was displayed.

Common questions
Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR 579.5Is Ford SSM 52729 a recall?
No. A service bulletin is a manufacturer communication filed with NHTSA under 49 CFR 579.5; a safety recall carries an NHTSA campaign number (two digits, a letter, six digits) and a federal duty to repair for free. Check the vehicle’s recalls by VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls, or on its page here.
Is the SSM 52729 repair free?
Not automatically. A service bulletin describes how to diagnose or repair a condition; who pays depends on the warranty in force, any extension, and the dealer. Quoting the number can save a diagnosis either way.
Which vehicles does SSM 52729 cover?
The manufacturer filed it against 3 model years: 2024 Ford Edge, 2023 Ford Edge, 2022 Ford Edge. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
