NHTSA Complaint #11675693 — 2018 FORD ESCAPE

Car has only 49,006 miles on it and the engine failed. It was working and then all of a sudden the check engine light came on and it started to run rough. Checked the spark plugs and they were full of gunk and changed them out. Car was still having problems and so we took it to the Ford dealer. The Ford dealer said that we needed to replace the engine because it was had scored cylinder walls at the number two cylinder and had no specific reason for it. The car was 1 quart low on oil even though it has regular maintenance and oil changes and there was still 38% oil life before we needed to change oil again. The check engine light only came on once it started to fail. Also, the engine compression at that point was only at 10%. Ford has refused to repair anything or pay any of it even though the engine is faulty.
