Car was running rough immediately upon cranking with intermittent check engine light, roughness would clear up soon after starting to drive. Started needing to add coolant pretty frequently, maybe once a week. Kept driving that way for about a month. Independent service center (Mooneyhan's, West Columbia, SC) diagnosed "coolant intrusion," needs new engine or re-build. Engine has approximately 70,000 miles on it.

My 2018 Ford Escape started running super rough one morning as I was heading into work. There were no lights and the system check said all systems running normal. However when I checked all the fluids and looked at everything it all looked fine. When I restarted the car I could see the engine shaking. As I was headed down the street to have a mechanic look at it the check engine light started flashing and the car lost power. Long story short the car was towed to the dealership and they told me I need a new engine and quoted $11,724.00, they said there was a coolant leak into the engine. I bought this car brand new and it only has 52,491 miles on it. After some extensive research I have found that this is a issue that is well known with all Escape models between the 2013 and 2019 years. However Ford is not doing anything to fix it and basically is just shrugging it off.

I took my wife car to Ford in Yuba City for a engine light for P1450 Unable to bleed up fuel tank vacuum. I had the dealership pick up my car and take to the dealership to replace the purge valve. The quoted me 1 hr and changed me two. On the paperwork they said there was an engine misfire which nobody said anything to me and I didn't ever had that error on this car. They drove my car to my house like this. I looked at paperwork and was surprised so I checked the car out and got a code po302 for cylinder 2 misfire. I popped the hood and saw that the cable was put in there lazy and there was a gap i the air tube to the air filter. I talked to the dealership and brought it in and they told me I have coolant in my motor and will need a short block replacement. I had no issue before the purge valve and with the on going issues with the coolant in motor issues with this type of engine. I feel ford should take car of it. I bought this car with 36 miles on it and it currently is at 96k or so. I know there was a free replacement for 7 year or 84 years of warranty. Is there anything Fork can do since I really don't want to go the legal route but will if I have to

I drove straight home and left it parked untouched. I called Ford they came and picked it up because I was too scared to drive it. I haven't even had this car for a year and the dealership called to tell me the engine is gone due to coolant leaking inshaft etc.. a list of problems I don't understand. About $9000. In repair cost. My warranty doesn't want to cover. I need help. I do not know where to turn Ford is well aware of these issues and failed to tell us consumers. This is a complete scam on there part and they need to be held accountable. I am still paying for that car always take care of it which they charge alot for simple maintenance. Please help and let me know what to do . I can not pay $ 9000 for repairs. I'll never feel safe again in that car. Also the blind spot and collision sensors keep going off when nothing is around. I took it in twice and they have not fixed it but I was charged for the repair.
