2017 Ford Edge, purchased this vehicle brand new, 2 days ago was driving and car became overheated suddenly, temperature attempted to decrease via the power and within 1 hour it was in the Ford Dealership being looked at. I was told it had an engine coolant leakage problem that would require a complete replacement of a brand new long block engine; approximately $10k in repairs. I did not have extended warranty on this vehicle and the manufacturers warranty covered 5yr/60k miles. I've found thousands of other consumers with this exact issue. Ford knows it's a defect in these engines but refuses to make it an official recall. My car that was worth approx 10-13k is now worth nothing and will be sold at auction. Shame on you, Ford.

My vehicle began overheating suddenly. I took it to a mechanic and he says it’s a coolant leak into the cylinders and may require head gasket replacement or full engine replacement. Ford has a TSB on this very issue that they are well aware of. The TSB number is 22-2229. I spoke to a local dealer and they told me because my vehicle has 68000 miles on it, I’m over the 60k warranty from the manufacturer. I’ve only had this vehicle for 2 years and I only drive about 15 miles a day. Why is this not been issued as a mandatory recall for these vehicles? I can’t afford a new engine on a car I still owe $18000 on. I know that there have been several complaints about this from other owners. Please help to escalate this to an actual recall.
