2018 Ford Fusion 2.0L ecoboost engine coolant intrusion issue at around 76000 miles. Took to dealer today to check for needing constant coolant topoffs and rough idle and check engine light. Dealer diagnosed as coolant intrusion in cylinders and into the engine, asked for full engine replacement (long block) at $7200 + tax bill. I called Ford customer service, they said no recall or customer satisfaction program to get a discount on the repair bill. Very disappointed at Ford quality, a whole engine replacement needed at less than 80k miles on a well maintained car. Requesting NHTSA to force Ford to issue a recall and cover the repairs since its a wide spread issue.
