Consumer Description

I have a 2016 Ford EdgeTitanium with a 2.0 EcoBoost with 63,000 miles on it. In May of 2024 my check engine light came on. Verified coolant intrusion into cylinder 1 causing engine failure. Mileage on the car does not warrant an engine replacement. When Ford was contacted, both the original dealership and manufacturer, they took no fault in the matter. I was told there was a possibility of an engine fire if left as it was. I had to pay $9469.44 for a new engine! Many forums show this same issue happening with the same year/make/model. Ford should be held accountable for a known defect in the block that was not corrected through a recall.
