Engine coolant mixing into engine and oil and coolant mixing and leaking internally. Ford service has determined the only fix is too replace the entire engine. Diagnosis codes: P0303 and P0316 with a repair estimate of $9,620. The reason I brought the SUV in for service is the Check Engine Light came on. My 2017 vehicle has the Ecoboost engine

Coolant intrusion. Ruined the engine. No help from Ford. Engine started overheating with my kids in the car. Could have started on fire. Ford obviously knows the issues with this vehicle, but since it's over the miles, due to my job I travel, they will not fix. Engine barely runs. Engine fault comes across the screen. No check engine light. Also.Engine overheating pull over safely comes across the screen. This vehicle needs to be recalled. Not the only one dealing with this. It's got 126,000 miles on it. Shouldn't have to replace Engine this soon.

I have 2.0L Ecoboost engine. I received a code indicating that cylinder 4 was misfiring. I changed the plugs and coils. Misfire code is still there. Upon researching issue I noticed that the coolant levels were low and found that the coolant was leaking into cylinder 4. Upon turning over the vehicle white smoke came out of the tailpipe, showing that there was coolant getting into the engine. This is an indication that the head gasket needs to be replaced. Ford issued a recall with the 1.5L ecoboost engines due to a faulty design on the engine. The design failure is due to slits being drilled in between the cylinders in order for the coolant to keep the temperature down while the engines are running. These vehicles would stall on the hwy/interstate putting those in the vehicle and other drivers at risk. This is a known issue and Ford needs to recall these engines.

Bought this car back in December from a used car dealer started misfiring went engine light came on for other things as well as misfires fixed the other things misfiring still happening took car to a different garage was told it’s a head gasket done my own research the head gasket is getting replaced but the problem will come back the engine block needs the remanufactured one since the original ford one failed/is failing
