How to Fix Death Wobble While Flat Towing a 2018 Ford Edge
Question:
Can this EPS be put on my 2018 Ford Edge to fix the same death wobble I get towing the Edge? Or does Ford have such a fix?

The Jeep fix won't work for Ford because they are different manufacturers.
I did some research and it looks like you can contact your local Ford dealership for a wiring kit, or another solution I saw people talking about is using bungee cords and wrapping them around the steering wheel and your driver's seat frame to keep the steering wheel taut to help prevent that death wobble.
For a complete flat towing setup you will need a base plate kit, tow bar, safety cables, vehicle tow bar wiring, a supplemental braking system, and possibly a high-low adapter. If you do not have all of these components just let me know and I can make some additional recommendations for you.
I'm attaching some links for helpful articles on flat towing for you to check out.
