NHTSA Complaint #11661992 — 2018 FORD ESCAPE

All of a sudden, right around 108,000 miles, the check engine light came on. Upon several mechanic visits, and replacing ignition coils, and spark plugs, and even doing a system engine oil flush, the check engine light keeps coming back on. The same code is displayed, a cylinder 2 and 3 misfire. Upon further investigation, I've found that this is a common issue that happens with the same model as my vehicle and instances occur with various mileage on the vehicle, some reported from 15,000 and up to 240,000 miles on the vehicle. During my research, I found that Ford realized that this was the engine type itself being at fault and changed from a short block engine to a better one going forward. I've also read reports that Ford has corrected the issue by replacing the engine retroactively. I feel that this is a major safety concern, as I was told be several mechanics that it could fail while driving and shake uncontrollably, which as anyone who drives would know, could cause major collisions. I urge this agency to take corrective action against Ford Motor Company in general and in encouraging them to fix the issue in my vehicle.
