Consumer Description

Engine light came on. Took it to mechanic. Was told there is a well documented mechanical issue affecting my 2017 , MKC. My vehicle is experiencing a misfire and cylinder three accompanied by signs of colon intrusion into the engine, as well as transmission slippage. I have heard these are known and widespread issues in 2015 to 2019 Lincoln MKC models equipped with the 2.0L Eco boost engine. I am aware of several technical service bulletins, including TSB 19-2346 and TBS 22-2229, that detail this defect. Numerous Lincon customers have reported identical issues at similar mileage, often requiring full engine or transmission replacement. My trusted mechanic has verified that my vehicle exhibit symptoms consistent with this engine defect.
