NHTSA Complaint #11594142 — 2018 FORD EDGE

I have a 2018 Ford Edge SEL with 36,460 miles on it. Problem began a few months ago on startup, engine would shudder for a few seconds then clear up, no check engine light came on. A few weeks later I experienced the same issue but the engine light came on! The repair shop changed the ignition coil, the spark plugs and the #2 cylinder injector! Vehicle ran well for a few weeks. While driving on [XXX] in Virginia the engine misfired and the check engine light came on, I found a Ford Dealership nearby and had them do a diagnostic check on the engine! I was informed by the service manager that the problem was “coolant intrusion” in the #2 cylinder! He provided me with the technical service bulletin #22-2229 which clearly states that to correct the problem “the long block engine assembly” must be replaced! Price quoted for this repair was $7,000 plus labor! My local dealership filed a claim with Ford, waiting to hear back from them, not holding my breath!
