NHTSA Complaint #11397265 — 2017 FORD FUSION

I HAVE A 2017 FORD FUSION TITANIUM WITH THE 2.0L ECOBOOST ENGINE THAT HAS 72,890 MILES. I EXPERIENCED ROUGH IDLE FOR ABOUT A WEEK THEN MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I HAD THE ENGINE LIGHT CHECKED AND SHOWED THE CODE P0302 WHICH IS A MISFIRE IN CYLINDER 2. WHEN I PROCEEDED TO LEAVE THE PLACE OF BUSINESS WHERE I HAD THE LIGHT CHECKED WHITE SMOKE CAME OUT OF MY EXHAUST UPON START UP AND WAS STILL COMING OUT BY THE TIME I DROVE HOME. I PROCEEDED TO DO MY RESEARCH OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF WEEKS FOLLOWING AND FOUND OUT IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND FORD WILL ONLY COVER IF UNDER POWER TRAIN WARRANTY, EVEN THOUGH IT HAPPENS OUTSIDE THE WARRANTY TIME FRAME JUST AS MUCH AS WITH IN THE WARRANTY WINDOW. I PROCEEDED TO HAVE MY CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND A DIAGNOSTIC DONE AND THEY SAID THAT EVERYTHING I STATED ABOVE IS EXACTLY THE ISSUE ALONG WITH THE PCM SELF-TEST SHOWING P0217 ENGINE OVER TEMPERATURE CONDITION WAS DETECTED, AND THE ENGINE LONG BLOCK ASSEMBLY DOES HAVE TO BE REPLACED.NOTHING SHOWED UP ON MY DASH TO WARN ME OF OVERHEATING OR ANYTHING OF THE NATURE. ONLY THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT APPEARED.
