NHTSA Complaint #11551227 — 2017 FORD ESCAPE

Engine staying at medium temperature the entire ride but quickly escalating with little acceleration. White smoke from exhaust. Coolant leak into cylinder causing smoke and vehicle not operating properly at normal speeds. Discussed this with the dealership that vehicle was purchased from and serviced at prior. They said my warrantee just expired at the end of august but that the manufacturer is aware of the defect and would have fixed it if it was still under warranty. The repair they said would be 7500$ vehicle still not operating properly and coolant leak noted.
