NHTSA Complaint #11681981 — 2016 FORD EDGE

The engine needs to be replaced due to coolant intrusion. This issue had no initial warning, and the car suddenly had issues accelerating and when I looked under the hood at home was low on coolant. I refilled it. Next morning an engine light came on for misfire in cylinder #3. I had an engine coil and the spark plugs replaced and it seemed fine for about a week before everything resumed happening again. Was then told the head gasket. My mechanic said to take it to ford for coolant intrusion & that this was a known issue with their engines. I feel this should be a recall, this is not safe. Ford has today confirmed I need a new long block due to coolant intrusion. Not only is this issue unsafe, but it’s very costly to fix. I’ve already spent $400 on this, and now I’m going to have to spend several thousand on a new engine for a car I’ve only owned for 20k miles.
