Consumer Description

MY 2019 FORD ESCAPE HAS LESS THAN 20,000 MILES AND IS ALREADY HAVING COOLANT LEAK ISSUES INTO THE ENGINE. CYLINDER 3 ISSUE AND THE DEALERSHIP IS TELLING ME THAT THE ENGINE WILL LIKELY NEED TO BE REPLACED. AS I READ MORE ABOUT THIS I AM SEEING THOUSANDS OF VEHICLES AFFECTED, BACK ORDER ON ENGINES, AND A LIKELY LONG WAIT PERIOD FOR THIS TO BE RESOLVED. AFTER SPEND ALMOST $30,000 ON MY VEHICLE THIS IS ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE BUSINESS PRACTICE! I AM ALSO READING THAT A LAW FIRM IN TENNESSEE IS COLLECTING CLIENTS FOR A LAWSUIT. *TR
