2018 Ford Edge

2018 Ford Edge, well maintained, 67k miles. Coolant is leaking into Cylinder 4 through is microhole that can cause the engine to explore. The dealership quoted me nearly $11,000 to fix. The car according to Kelley Blue Book is worth that much. This care should be recalled IMMEDIATELY. There is a class action lawsuit against for for this very problem. It is not safe and ford is totally scamming customers out of money based on a manufacturing defect.

Coolant system started to leak into the cylinders, causing both low-coolant and corrosion of the spark plugs. We contacted a Ford repair center and they said the only remedy is to replace the entire engine. Apparently this is a design flaw. The engine light started go go on in December 2024 and the problem has only gotten worse and worse since then.

Car began bucking at first and running rough about 82000 miles on it I changed plugs and shortly after it started again. It began to over heat when I drove from Maine to KY. I found it was low on Coolant. I had to fill it again a month or so later. Mechanic did not find any coolant leaks. I brought it to ford and they told me coolant was getting into the cylinders and I need an engine replacement. I am [XXX] drive like an old man and no reason engine should fail the way I drive I understand Ford recalled the 1.5 echo boost but not the 2.0 and they were made with the same defect. They are aware of this and redesigned the engine. It cost me 6.000 dollars to fix at a time I am nearing retirement.

Coolant Leaking Into Cylinders. Ford had already noticed this issue that coolant intrusion into the cylinder with tons of 2015-2018 Edge and 2017-2019 Fusion/MKZ/Escape/MKC vehicles equipped with a 2.0L EcoBoost engine. They have never recall, replace, or even try to fix this issue. It very easily causes engine overheated which is a significant risk. Please consider to have them do a nationally recall and help people on the way to be safe! Thank you

Engine failed due to coolant intrusion on cylinder two! Been experiencing coolant loss with no evidence of where it was going. Have had multiple pressure tests performed with no results of a leak. Started experiencing a spurts of misfire when accelerating up hill or on a high at speeds of 60-75MPH, inconsistently. Happened again on 05/07/2024, called my local dealership and was advised to bring it in to have a tech take a drive. On that drive he was able to replicate misfire to the point a check engine light appeared while my edge was experiencing misfire. When misfire stopped engine light shut off. Once we were back the tech performed diagnostic measures and found coolant spewing into the engine. Resulting in the need of a new engine.

My car is only 6 years old. I have maintained my car for the past 5 years of ownership. My car now needs a complete engine replacement due to coolant leaking into the cylinders. This was looked at by my local Ford dealership. After reading through other reviews it appears that other owners have experienced the exact same issue. I also was told my the dealership that Ford Escapes experienced the exact same issue and there was a recall. My car shakes and rattles and is unsafe to drive. I was told my the dealership that I could still drive it, but it is unknown when the engine will completely fail. I am a mom of two children and I cannot drive a car that could just randomly fail! My check engine line appeared about 2 weeks ago before I could get an appointment to be seen.
