Consumer Description
I DROVE TO WORK NO PROBLEMS AND PARKED MY 2015 FUSION 2.0 ECOBOOST. WHEN I LEFT WORK I STARTED THE CAR AND A BILLOW OF WHITE SMOKE ROLLED OUT FROM THE EXHAUST WHEN I PULLED OUT OF MY PARKING SPOT. IT QUICKLY DISSIPATED SO I DROVE DOWN THE ROAD A FEW MILES. I THEN GOT AN OVERHEATING WARNING ON THE DASH FOLLOWED BY A P1299 CODE. WHEN I PARKED THE CAR IT WAS IDLING ROUGH SO I TURNED IT OFF. I LET IT COOL DOWN AND NOTICED THE COOLANT RESERVOIR WAS LOW SO I FILLED IT UP AND STARTED THE CAR, IT IDLED JUST FINE, AT FIRST, WITH LITTLE SMOKE THEN AFTER A FEW MOMENTS IT STARTED IDLING REALLY ROUGH. IT SUCKED THE COOLANT RESERVOIR DRY SO I FILLED IT UP AGAIN AND WENT INSIDE. WHEN I LOOKED AT IT HALF AN HOUR LATER THE COOLANT RESERVOIR WAS EMPTY YET AGAIN. I THEN NOTICED A HUGE PUDDLE UNDER MY CAR WITH IT DRIPPING FROM THE MUFFLER IN THE MIDDLE. I DON'T KNOW THE PROBLEM. I ONLY HAVE 68K MILES.
