Escape SE 2L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 92,913 miles

Technician found coolant in the oil during an oil change. Took vehicle to dealer for second opinion. Recommendation is for engine replacement to the tune of $11,000 or more. The car might be worth $8000. I was hoping to drive this care for 200,000 miles. The coolant intrusion in the engine is so pervasive and common with multiple ford models. It is especially common for 1.5L engines. There are a few class action suits filed due to this issue. This will be my last Ford.
