Consumer Description
Earlier this year, I had a crack form in my engine block that resulted in coolant intrusion in the engine. This was a safety risk as it resulted in a complete failure of my engine, loss of all coolant and was a fire risk. Ford has had significant issues with this in multiple models and years, yet the 2018 Ford Edge continues to be excluded from these recalls. This issue did result in a recall in Canada and is pending a class action lawsuit on the 2018 Ford Edge. The lawsuit, entitled [XXX], et al. v. Ford Motor Company, is currently pending in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of California, Case No. [XXX] . I required 2 repairs to remedy this known safety issue that the NHTSA has yet to acknowledge or require Ford to address. All of this with 38,000 miles on the vehicle. I have seen this exact issue addressed in model years before and after 2018, but have yet to see progress on remediation for the 2018 year. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
