Some Ford Edge owners report experiencing engine skipping and a check engine light illumination following an oil change and gasket replacement. These issues may arise from various factors, including improperly seated dipsticks, incorrectly positioned oil fill caps, low oil pressure, excessive oil in the system, or the use of incorrect oil. Additionally, if the fuel tank was filled after the oil change without securely tightening the gas cap, this could trigger the check engine light. Owners are advised to check oil levels, ensure the oil fill and gas caps are properly secured, and confirm that all components were correctly installed during the gasket replacement. If these problems persist, consulting a mechanic or dealership for further diagnosis and repair is recommended.
