NHTSA Complaint #11472585 — 2015 FORD FUSION

The block is cracked causing coolant to intrude into it. This intrusion is causing engine to perform poorly and has a hard time getting up to speed which could result in getting rear ended...especially on the interstate. It could also cause engine to overheat leaving us stranded on the side of the road. Ford is aware of this problem and has even redesigned the block but there is no recall for it. I have not drove the car to have it inspected but spoke with a dealership over the phone about what my car was doing and they knew exactly what the issue was. My car started off idling roughly followed by a P0301 (cylinder 1 misfire). This started a few months ago...changed out the spark plug and problem went away for a while but last week we got a message saying engine coolant was overheated. We no longer feel safe driving it anywhere.
