Consumer Description
My wife had driven the car, it had given an error and I tested it for a code. The Code was PO304 Cylinder 4 Misfire detected. We scheduled a maintenance appointment with our local Ford dealership to have them look at this error and address a recall. We were informed that "coolant and freezant were leaking into cylinder #4!" The mileage is ~150300 and the vehicle has been serviced regularly. Prior to the Engine light on/code on, there have been no indication there was a problem. I am now reading about other 1.5L Escapes that have this same recall but mine was not included? This doesn't make sense, it's the same problem with the same motor that was manufactured in other facilities, with the same parts, and those engines were recalled but mine wasn't?? just fix my engine guys!
