NHTSA Complaint #11657809 — 2019 FORD ESCAPE

My car quit running properly so I took it to the local O’Reillys and they did a scan. The scan showed a misfire on cylinder 2, a known issue. I took it to a local auto mechanic who said I had a cracked head and needed a new engine. They guided me to the Ford dealership who also confirmed that the engine head was cracked, but noted that the engine needed replaced due to another known issue with these engines, but didn’t say what that other known issue is. The car is barely running, and it clearly falls in line with the other vehicle VIN’s that were recalled due to the known coolant leakage problem that is causing the heads to crack and the engines that need to be replaced. Ford is refusing to include my vehicle.This situation could have been much worse as I drive a major hiway to work and I could have broken down along the way leaving my safety in Jeopardy with a sudden engine malfunction. I could have been hit by a car, or had would be car jacker attack while I would have waited for help. Or if for some reason this issue would have caused my car to catch fire with my child in it. Car is sitting at Ford Dealer and can be inspected at any time.
