Consumer Description

Check engine light on and after scan, code P0302 results. Engine feels sluggish. "Coolant level low" displayed on dash, also temperature level rose to high so stopped driving it. Engine temperature elevated may catch fire car. Problem is coolant entering cylinder. Confirmed by two independent mechanics, and today by Lincoln mechanic. Vehicle is at Lincoln service center. Check engine light appeared on dash a few days before the temperature elevation and coolant loss. Got code P0302 a few days before the coolant loss and temperature rise.
