Consumer Description

I purchased car in Septemver of 2023, in May of 2024 I started ha jng issues with it misfiring and a mechanic told me I had a coolant leaking. in June 2024 I had to take it to a mechanic as an emergency as it wasn't driving properly. I was then informed that I need a new engine because coolant is leaking onto engine block. I then took it to the dealership i bought it from, they in turn took it to Lincoln, who verified with a diagnostic that yes it did need a new engine. i did some research and Lincoln has a safety bulletin out for ghis exact issue for cars from 2017-2019. I have had my car at dealership I bought it form snd at lincoln and no one is taking responsibility of this issue and the fact that I've had the car less then 1 year. I can't afford to replace the engine for $7,000.
