Putting the car in drive and would drive a few feet suddenly, all the panel lights ( check engine, abs,hazard control,electric parking brake,) literally every light on the panel would turn on and engine would stall causing the steering to become hard to control. This happened 3 times within a 2 week span then, I brought it into dealership and was told my coolant had leaked into my cylinders causing the engine to become ruined and that’s why I was having the problems with the engine and steering. My car has only 59000 miles.

Our 2017 Ford Edge had 67,000 miles and it developed a cracked block. We needed to replace the long block engine. It turns out Ford issued a Technical Service Bulletin number 19-2346 in 2019. This bulletin applies to all Ford Edges produced from 2015 - 2018 and other Ford models. Even though this problem was experienced by thousands of these vehicles the owners were never advised. This is a major engine defect that could cause many dangerous conditions including engine fires. The cost of Ford's recommendation to fix this problem was well over $10,000. This engine failure was a clear defect that Ford should have and still needs to issue a recall and to take full responsibility. I know you have received similar complaints from many Ford owners with the same problem. Please take action to cause this to happen and order Ford to compensate those already affected by this defect. Thank you.

On [XXX], my check engine light came on, followed by random shaking vibration after starting up the vehicle. I received code P0303 Cylinder 3 Misfire Detected. Autozone recommended to replace the ignition coil or spark plug. I replaced the ignition coil first and noticed there were oil inside of the hole and on the old ignition coil. I took my vehicle to Lafontaine Ford Lansing dealership in Lansing, Michigan. I was informed the oil was caused by valve cover gasket leaking. The cylinder misfire was caused due to coolant leaking into the cylinders. Two cylinders had already contained coolant. I was told this will result in engine failure and overheating eventually if I continue to drive the vehicle. Ford suggested to replace the long block and quoted me $11, 372.45 for the repair. My warranty expired at 100,000 miles. At the time of this incident, I was at 115,577 miles. This appeared to be a common issue/defect that Ford failed to disclose and refused to fix. I declined the repairs due to the exorbitant cost and left the vehicle parked. This defect (which Ford is at fault for) could have jeopardized my safety and other drivers on the road if it led to a potential fire while driving from Ohio.

Check engine light came on in June. Had oil change at the dealership and check engine light did not come on until July. Dealership said a coolant intrusion in cylinder 2 was causing misfire and a new engine was recommended. This is a 7 year old car with 47K miles. Engine cost was 11+K and I contacted Ford Motor Co. for assistance on August 12, 2024. After numerous phone calls and forwarding documentation Ford says they will reimburse some of the cost. This process has taken over 60 days for me to continue to follow up, (return calls promised, but never happened), request to speak with a supervisor, explain the situation repeatedly to the same "Concern Team" member. Ford Motor Co. knows that engine failure or worse is possible, but does not take responsibility, This should be a MAJOR recall!!!!

Service engine light came on, it was taken to an independent service center. The code was a "misfire" to cylinder 3. When the spark plug was removed, it was wet with coolant. This means coolant is in my engine which can cause irreparable damage to my engine. It is over $9k for me to fix. This is a devastating design flaw. Also, the backup camera freezes, and the backup warning sytem stops when the camera freezes, which can cause an accident
