NHTSA Complaint #11551570 — 2019 FORD EDGE

In June 2023 while operating my 2019 Ford Edge with at the time 62,000 miles on it at the time. I was on a highway when the engine coolant warning light came on in vehicle . I pulled off the highway as I was endanger and the vehicle was acting erratically which almost caused an accident I then went to a gas station and had coolant restored as it had run out completely without notice or reason the mechanic advised I speak with dealer. I brought vehicle to local mechanic, who advised that the engine was blown unserviceable. He stated that he had seen this issue many times before and stated that the Ford Eco-boost engine had a widespread problem of the engine block cracking then coolant entering the engine destroying it. He said he had seen this many times over many years. He said the coolant was leaking from the tail-pipes which was a tell tale sign of the issue. he said there was a long history of engine problems with Ford Edge Eco-boost engines dating back to 2012. I looked on line and a great deal of history and documentation were present, even a large federal class action law suit based in California. The Colonial Ford Dealership in Plymouth Ma confirmed everything that the mechanic had told me but denied any responsibility saying they were not aware of any history or re-call, they charged me 7,400.00$ to replace the engine. A letter from Ford Corp said they were not responsible until a re-call is ordered The U.S. GOV should step and work to stop Ford from doing this to customers and not until after someone is killed or injured.
