NHTSA Complaint #11532537 — 2019 FORD ECOSPORT

My 2019 Ford Ecosport started running rough around the middle of June 2023. I thought it was time for a tune up. The car didn’t display any warning lights on the dashboard. I kept driving it and made a appointment with Firestone for a tuneup and oil change because the oil change was coming due soon. Before I could go to that appointment my car’s engine started making more noise. I called a friend who is an A tech to look at my car. He said yes that this was a known problem with the Ford Ecosport 1.0 engine. The cooling line leaks antifreeze into the engine and causes the problem with the oil pump leading to no oil pressure. He said he could repair the car at 17 hours of labor plus parts if the issue has blown the engine, but until Ford fixes the design issue it will happen again. I have owned my car for a little over a year and the car does not have a warranty left on it. There are class action suits against Ford for this problem, and I am wondering why have they not recalled the vehicle when this is a known issue.
