Consumer Description

I have a 2016 Ford Explorer that the water pump keeps failing. In September 2020, I had to pay nearly $1500 to replace the water pump because it was leaking coolant which made the engine to overheat. Now, since October/November of 2021, the coolant begin to leak again which cause the engine to overheat. I took it to the mechanic who confirmed it appears to be the water pump. This is the second time filing a complaint with NHTSA. The first complaint was in January 2022, but I hace yet to receive any response. This appears to be a constant issue and I don't have the funds to continue paying for Ford's defect. How can I get ford to rectify this issue and how to get reimbursement for the repair already completed.
