Consumer Description
I've got engine light on then send to Ford dealer. Diagnostic says Purge Valve Replacement, I was told that there was a misfire caused by coolant intrusion cylinder 1. They also told me that this was a KNOWN ISSUE a few years back and it needed a NEW ENGINE to fix the problem. I asked them several questions about why only telling me now since it's an ongoing issue and why is it that no one from Ford dealer all different state that I brought in my car to check safety issues and regular oil changes informed me about this? I just retired and the dealer asked me to pay for the repair of new engine plus labor. I can't afford and it's hard to accept that someone lying to get some money from me. I read an article from your website with the same issue that there is a recall but the dealer told me that this was only a KNOWN problem NOT a recall. Please see the link [XXX] Kindly help me to resolve this issue and help others. Let them send a recall again to every Ford owner/user to avoid accidents that can cause death. This is ongoing and my case with the dealer has still not been given an answer for almost a week tomorrow. I appreciate your help and hoping to hear from you soon.
