Defect Description:
ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
My 2019 Lincoln MKC with a 2.0L EcoBoost engine experienced coolant intrusion into cylinder 2, leading to engine misfire, check engine light, and severe vibration. The dealership confirmed the issue and recommended a full long block engine replacement, estimated at over $11,000. This failure occurred at only 48,000 miles. This appears to be the exact issue described in Ford TSB 19-2346, which covers 2017–2019 model year vehicles with the 2.0L EcoBoost engine, including the Lincoln MKC and MKZ. The TSB acknowledges a design-related coolant leak into the engine cylinders that can cause white smoke, misfire, rough running, and warning lights. Ford’s recommended repair is to replace the long block assembly. I believe this is a widespread design defect and request NHTSA’s investigation to ensure proper manufacturer accountability.

Potential Consequences:
only 69,000 miles and have engine failure. Car shut down on the highway and put me and my child in a very dangerous situation. Dealership diagnosed it as coolant intrusion into the engine. Seems to be a widely known problem with the MKC. The engine now must be replaced and the cost is more than the car is worth.

Was uninformed about previous recalls to this same make and model that took place prior to me getting this vehicle. Was told by Ford dealership recently once I took the vehicle for diagnostic for engine light being on that coolant has been leaking into the engine and would require a brand new engine. This has been a manufacture issue that ford has been made aware of years ago and has done absolutely nothing about.

ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
I started my car with no prior warning light or malfunction alerts on my dashboard or Lincoln phone app. Upon shifting into drive, the vehicle began shaking severely, accompanied by a loud rattling noise for the first time. I had the car towed to a Lincoln dealership, where they evaluated the issue (see attached file for their conclusion). Seeking a second opinion, I had it towed again to an independent service center, where they determined that a cracked electrical plug caused a transmission fluid leak. The defect put our safety at risk, as I was unknowingly driving with transmission fluid levels below the minimum and blackened oil. As a result the transmission had to be replaced.

Potential Consequences:
On my 2019 Lincoln MKC, which has 53,000 miles, the weather adhesive on one side of the moon/sunroof has come loose. The entire assembly is nearly detached, and I suspect this is a manufacturing defect, considering the car is relatively new and has low mileage. While I was driving on the highway, the roof could have come completely loose and potentially hit someone, which raises significant safety concerns regarding this manufacturer issue.

I had the oil changed 1 month ago but was not told or warned of an engine defect either ( I was under mileage that time). I am asking for assistance to replace this engine. I feel there should have been a recall to replace the models effected. Others have had their engines replaced free of charge I asking to extended that same courtesy free of charge. And a recall should be issued for theses bad engines when the problem was known prior to sale. I have purchased Ford vehicles in the past and but I was married at the time but he too has a LMKC right now. Please advise on some type of assistance. Thank you
