NHTSA Complaint #11339218 — 2017 FORD EDGE

MY 2017 FORD EDGE 2.0L ECOBOOST, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON WITH CODE OF P0302, AFTER CHANGING THE SPARK PLUGS AND COIL PACKS, FINALLY TOOK IT TO OUR LOCAL DEALERSHIP, BANNER FORD IN MANDEVILLE, LA AND AFTER A DIAGNOSTIC WAS FOUND TO HAVE "COOLANT INTRUSION ON CYLINDER #2, AND WAS TOLD THAT FORD WOULD NOT SELL THE PARTS TO REPAIR THE ENGINE, BUT THAT THE ENTIRE ENGINE HAD TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE FORD HAD CHANGED THE DESIGN ON THE ENGINE AND GASKETS. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL, NOT A TSB, AS I HAVE FOUND MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS AND THEY ALL HAVE CONTACTED FORD WITH THE SAME RESULTS, SO FORD IS WELL AWARE OF THIS ISSUE, COMPLAINTS GO BACK AS FAR AS 2015 AND ALL ARE AROUND THE 65K TO 70K MILE MARK. FORD KNOWS ABOUT THIS BY REDESIGNING THE ENGINES AND THE GASKETS. I AM LOOKING AT AN $8500 ENGINE REPLACEMENT BILL BECAUSE I AM OUT-OF-WARRANTY.
