NHTSA Complaint #11709390 — 2017 FORD EDGE

Engine failure issue. Car started to rough idle, and started to lose power due to misfires. The poor performance placed myself and Family at risk of becoming a hazard to ourselves and other drivers because the car could encounter a moving situation that could not be avoided, and the loss of ability to move away from a dangerous situation. While addressing the problem it was found that there was coolant intrusion in the cylinders due to cracks developing in the poorly designed engine block. The check Engine light did signal indication of a misfire and bad ignition. I investigated the problem and discovered that Ford is aware of the issue and has issued TSB-2229, replace engine at cost to owner, due to Fords poor design.
