NHTSA Complaint #11542167 — 2018 FORD EDGE

My name is [XXX] my husband and I have been working with Chapman Ford on a situation with my 2018 Ford Edge. Currently the Edge needs an Engine replacement according to TSB #'s 19-2208,19-2346,22-2133 and 22-2229. This stems from a design flaw issue starting with the 2015 Edge according to the TSB's. The cost to replace the engine is $7030.95, Chapman Ford put in a GCCT Case and got approval for $2,812.38 of the total cost for a known design flaw that should probably have been a recall or at the very least extended the warranty to 150K like Ford has done on other engines with the same issue, but not my model. Ford is telling me I need to pay $4,200 out of pocket to replace the entire engine. I only have 70,000 miles on the vehicle. I feel like I'm getting the run around when it comes to Ford. We have called the company directly and they told us since Ford Chapman made the offer to reduce the cost by $2,800.00, they cannot extend further coverage for the cost. I'm confused here, why am I paying for a design flaw? Why was there not a recall? Can you help? What really upsets me is Ford never notified me of this problem, it was not disclosed when I purchased the vehicle, nor did they diagnose it when my engine light came on. A third party was the one to alert us to the issue and the bulletin. [XXX] [XXX] . [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
