NHTSA Complaint #11510037 — 2018 FORD EDGE

I was driving on interstate route 22 in Derry Twp. Pa. when the engine started to shake and the vehicle started to slow down , I know that there was a ford garage 2 mile down the road , and I managed to get the vehicle to the Ford garage. Upon inspection by the Ford service garage they informed me that there is coolant getting into the #2 cylinder of the 4 cylinder engine . They also informed me that it cannot be fixed and that the entire engine needs to be replaced . There is only 61,166 miles on the engine and Ford says that it is out of warranty and the owner is responsible for all repairs which comes to $7,121.01 . I have spoken to 3 Ford garages , TRI-STAR MOTERS , Blairsville, Pa. were my vehicle is , LATROBE FORD , and Greensburg FORD, and all three told me that they have seen this problem in there shop on the 4 cylinder Ford engines ! The service depts. stated that there is a defect in the engine blocks and that is why it has to be replaced vs repaired ! They said that Ford had a recall on some of the engines but not all. All these 4 cylinders Ford engines need to be recalled not just some of them ! It is obvious, just as in my case that most of these 4 cylinders are defective ! The engine warning light did not come on until I had almost complete engine failure and slowed down considerably . I am requesting the NTSB and the NHTSA to further expand the recall on these obviously defective engines. The vehicle owners should NOT be stuck paying over $7,000 for an obvious defect that Ford knows about and needs to take responsibility for ! THANK YOU IN ADVANCE !!!
