At about 99000miles the engine light came on, resulting in a diagnostic coe P0302 ( Cylinder #2 missfire). This caused the vehicle to have trouble starting and the front end to shake. Soon a warning light indicatingh the engine was very hot iluminated after checking spark plugs, coils, throtle body, air filter, I notice my antifreeze coolant reservoir was empty, however there was no sigh of leak. I been driving the vehicle since then requiring to constantly add coolant to the reservoir. I have not taking the vehicle to the dealer for this particular reason. My vehicle experiences all the synptoms for a leak into to the cylinder. I can not afford to pay for the replacement of an engine or for repairs cuased by a poor design by Ford. I dont kmnow where to go to get this fix

Have misfiring when starting car -Had check engine light come on with code p302 ( cylinder 2 misfire). I had the spark plugs replaced, problem continued then had the ignition coil in cylinder 2 replaced to diagnose if it was firing problem or in the motor. Turns out the long block (engine )will need replace do to ford coolant leak in cylinder, witch may cause overheating- engine loss - as bad as engine fires. Whats worse is that the new engine is the same 2.0 ecoboost engine with high chane of same issue happening again. All of this was over a 2 month period with a certified mechanic trying to diagnose every time. All active recalls have been done and done by ford dealer also. The potential of a fire or engine loss in any of these ecoboost motors is high a risk.

My 2017 Ford Edge Titanium is in Pep Boys shop having the engine block replaced due to coolant leaking into the cylinders. This issue has been diagnosed by my mechanic and could have been a possible fire hazard. The engine overheats to extreme temperatures causing the engine to catch fire. The engine light came on while I was driving car. The engine also alerted me by voice in the car that it was reducing my speed and power to the the motor due to overheating. After 3 different mechanics assessed the situation it was determined that the engine coolant was leaking into the cylinders. The engine has been replaced now. This has apparently affected other models.

Engine light came on. Took vehicle to Villa Ford of Orange. They hooked up a code reader and said 2 codes came up: misfire and spark plug. They couldn-??t look at it that day so I took it to Fullerton Ford, they said come back first thing The next morning. Took it back To Fullerton Ford, they looked at it and told me there coolant in the engine and the engine was blown. I bought this vehicle brand new 7 years ago. I only have 42,131 miles on it. It is not out of warranty by mileage but is out of warranty by years. All of the maintenance has been done by Villa Ford of Orange. There has been no negligence on my part. And no reason for the engine to have blown with only 42,000 miles on it. This is definitely a defective engine and have heard of others with this same issue with this engine. Ford needs to step up to the plate and recall this engine. Thank you in advance for your help.

Engine coolant leaking into engine block causing it to overheat.

- Springfield, WV, USA

My check engine light has come on twice in the past month. I was told the first time it was my spark plugs and that possibly coolant was leaking into the head gasket. They fixed my spark plugs and the light went off. A month later the light comes on. Turns out coolant is leaking into the head gasket which is a KNOWN COMMON PROBLEM IN FORD CARS! When I called Ford they were not shocked to hear this. They even told me how often they see it and the guy I talked to said he doesn't understand how there is not a recall. I was told how extensive and expensive the repairs are and that I should just get a new car. My car is well maintained, less than 100,000 miles and less than 10 years old. I have gotten 3 other opinions from mechanics who have said the same thing. They say this is a COMMON problem in Fords and they see it constantly. Shame on Ford for letting it go this long. I will never purchase a Ford again and tell everyone I know to never purchase one.

Engine replaced for the first time on october 2023 and a second time new engine again in nov. 2023 This is wrong!!

- Alpharetta, GA, USA

The coolant is leaking into the engine. This has been reported more than 900 times and Ford has yet to issue a recall or make people aware of the issue. This can be hazardous breaking down on the highway and especially when traveling alone with areas having no cell service. On 4/4/2024, I was on my way to the office when my car started overheating out of nowhere and went into low power mode. Cars zooming past me because I couldn-??t keep up is very dangerous. I was stuck and couldn-??t get over anywhere. On 4/10/24, I-??m told to get proof that I had routine maintenance done to my car and on 4/11, I was told the engine needed replacing. It was acknowledged that this is a known issue.

Purchased 2017 Ford Edge new from Ford dealership. Vehicle maintained by same dealer since new. At approximately 81950 miles the check engine light appeared. Error codes indicated cylinders 2 and 4 were misfiring. All four spark plugs and coils were changed and engine light cleared. Approximately 5 lays later it reappeared and engine ran ruff. Took vehicle to a ASE certified shop that ran a diagnosis indicating several codes. Further investigation revealed water in number 2 cylinder. Was informed by shop tech that there is no repair as engine block design is faulty. Returned to Ford dealer and was informed that engine would need replaced at a cost of $10,000. Drove vehicle for a few more days (approx. 100 miles) during which on 3 occasions the engine would suddenly run ruff and stop resulting loss of power steering and brakes. - engine failure, yes available for inspection - engine stopping, loss of power steering and power brakes - yes confirmed by dealer and independent service center - yes, check engine light and engine running ruff (81950 miles)

I have a 2017 Ford Edge and have the issue of intrusion of coolant into the cylinders, which I learned from some research is a known problem that this model is having. It initially was a check engine light. I brought it to an oil change place and they ran the code and said I needed a tuneup. I got a tuneup and the light returned. It caused the engine to overheat. Luckily, I was not stranded but could have easily been stranded with my grandkids in the car on a roadway. The only resolution is a complete engine replacement costing me $8,000 because Ford has not issued a recall on this known problem and is not standing behind their product.

I got got the classic Cyl#2 misfire a month after buy it from a local Ford dealer, threw money at it coils wiring harness plugs, took it back to them and they told me it needs a new engine. The engine has coolant leaking into cyl #2 causing the code. The dealership suggested I Trade the edge in for another one, yeah just got stuck with a $19,000 loan for this one I need another $19,000 on top? I already pay $381 a month that would double my monthly bill. so my choices are slim to none. I don't want a boat anchor or a paper weight I have to get a loan to replace the engine for $6,200, To my understanding there are more than 750,000 vehicle affected by the flawed engine design. They knew about the flaw 2019 and redesigned the engine at least 3 more times. There are attached TSBs from Ford.
