Defect Description:

ENGINE

Potential Consequences:

Coolant intrusion into cylinder number 2. Engine runs really rough and we cannot drive it until we get the engine replaced. A KNOWN issue that ford isn't covering even though they released a TSB stating it is a manufacturer defect because they made the cylinder walls too thin between cylindersnumber 2 and 3. Myself and who knows how many others are out $5000 to $9000 for repairs on vehicles we still owe a lot of money on. Some of these failures have lead to engine fires. Now I have a $40k car in my garage I can't drive for fear of fire and have to spend a fortune to fix. Please make ford own up to this and fix our vehicles!

ENGINE

Potential Consequences:

Recently, I purchased a 2018 Ford Edge from an outside dealership. I have been dealing with a misfire since November of 2023. A few days after I got the car the engine light came on, the dealership I bought it from supposedly "fixed" the car three times. First time was a bad coil in cylinder 1 thought it was fixed a few days later engine light comes back on I go to O'reilly's to get a free diagnostic check and it says misfire cylinder 1 so i take it back to them they say someone over lubed some parts putting it back in, they fix it. Now after this second time around is when I start noticing my coolent is disappearing and then a few days go by engine light comes back on and now im starting to feel thw miafire slightly so i let them know thinking it could be why im having a misfire. so i take it back in this time it was a clogged full injector in cylinder 1 and then they also check my coolent but i got charged for that "seperate" diagnosis they couldnt find anything leaking or any back head gasket so thought it was all good to go then a week goes by and the engine light comes back on now this time i tell them and thwy have me take it do a different shop for a second opinion, and they found coolent leaking into my cylinder 1. I called Ford to let them know because I am aware that this particular 2.0L ecoboost engine is under recall in a lot of cars and when i looked it up it said that 2015-2018 forde ege models qualifyfor this 2020 ford ecoboist engine recall but the ford service lady said they will not help me because my specific VIN number is not included in the recall, but for my safety and the fact that the engine was under recall I beleave they should fix my car.

ENGINE

Potential Consequences:

Coolant is being used up but not leaking anywhere on the ground. It is mis-firing. It has run out of coolant - with NO leak found anywhere. Check engine light comes on and goes off. Looks like the Ford Fusion Recall Issue but there is no recall on my VIN. I cannot afford to repair this defect. Can you do anything to assist my 2018 Ford Edge with its internal coolant leak?

Looks like the Ford Fusion Recall Issue but there is no recall on my VIN. I cannot afford to repair this defect. Can you do anything to assist my 2018 Ford Edge with its internal coolant leak?

Additional Notes:

Coolant is being used up but not leaking anywhere on the ground. It is mis-firing. It has run out of coolant - with NO leak found anywhere. Check engine light comes on and goes off. Looks like the Ford Fusion Recall Issue but there is no recall on my VIN. I cannot afford to repair this defect. Can you do anything to assist my 2018 Ford Edge with its internal coolant leak?

ENGINE

Potential Consequences:

I have a 2018 Ford Edge SEL with 36,460 miles on it. Problem began a few months ago on startup, engine would shudder for a few seconds then clear up, no check engine light came on. A few weeks later I experienced the same issue but the engine light came on! The repair shop changed the ignition coil, the spark plugs and the #2 cylinder injector! Vehicle ran well for a few weeks. While driving on [XXX] in Virginia the engine misfired and the check engine light came on, I found a Ford Dealership nearby and had them do a diagnostic check on the engine! I was informed by the service manager that the problem was “coolant intrusion” in the #2 cylinder! He provided me with the technical service bulletin #22-2229 which clearly states that to correct the problem “the long block engine assembly” must be replaced! Price quoted for this repair was $7,000 plus labor! My local dealership filed a claim with Ford, waiting to hear back from them, not holding my breath! INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
