Cylinder Coolant Intrusion I took my vehicle to Warren/ Sheldon auto repair shop in canton, MI They did a diagnostic test on it, they told me they found coolant in the engine, and I would need a brand new engine. If I would of not taken the vehicle to the auto shop, the vehicle may have caught on fire vector the condition it is in, because it would of overheated because of no coolant or was very low -due to a leak. A check engine light came on June 5th, 2026, and two days later I took it to the shop.

Engine has coolant leaking into the third cylinder. This explains why my vehichle runs rough, coolant level drops with no sign of leaks underneath the vehicle and white exhaust smoke. Apparently its a known issue with the 2.0 L Ecoboost engines and is addressed in a technical service bulletin (TSB). To correct coolant intrusion into the cylinders you have to replace the long block engine assembly. The issue started in Texas about a year ago and a code appeared for misfire in cylinder 3. Spark plugs and ignition coil was replaced only for the code to appear again the next week. Twice a month we would have to top off the coolant. It wasnt until about 2 weeks ago when smoke was coming out of the exhaust and was advised it is not safe to drive.

It was necessary to stop at the end of an on-ramp to an expressway. As I proceeded to enter the expressway, my 2017 Ford Edge started vibrating and as I accelerated to go onto the expressway, the car stalled. I was able to restart the car and it vibrated and stalled again as I accelerated to pull over on the shoulder of the road, which there was minimal area to pull off due to the lack of shoulder. Then, the check engine light came on. I could have been in a major accident if I was not able to get out of the flow of traffic quick enough. My mechanic told me that I have a head gasket cylinder leak which is a well known problem with the 2.0L Ford Ecoboost engine which causes the engine to stall. He said that he has seen this problem before and Ford recognizes the problem but is unwilling to do anything about it. He also said that probably a certain amount of people have to die or get injured before Ford will do anything about it. He also said Ford changed the cooling design after 2019 due to the number of problems they have had with the 2.0L engine head gasket. The first warning light that came on was after the engine stalled the second time.

> The engine block is cracked internally due to a known design defect in the 2.0L EcoBoost. Coolant is leaking into the combustion chambers through cracks in the cylinder walls. This causes white smoke from exhaust, misfires, and coolant loss with no external leak. Ford acknowledged this in TSB 19-2346 and TSB 22-2229 but has not recalled the 2.0L engines. Engine could fail while driving at highway speed, causing sudden loss of power and crash.

Our 2017 Ford Edge Titanium had its engine check light go on at 60,788 miles on April 6, 2026. So we brought it into our local Ford dealership (where we purchased it new) the next day on April 7. We were told that diagnostics showed there was a coolant intrusion in one of the cylinders (2.0L Eco-Boost engine) and we would need to basically rebuild the engine (long block) for $9,900! This is very frustrating since we bought an extended warranty at the time of purchase and had our car regularly brought in for maintenance. We did everything expected as an owner. No surprise, our extended warranty was good up 60,000. Our Edge was at the dealership for 5 weeks. I don't think they cared at all that we had to payout $9,000. I've read so many posts on various sites with people experiencing the same problem and cost out of pocket to get their Fords repaired. it's apparent Ford had some major manufacturing issues on their engine blocks that cause coolant to leak into the cylinders. So, why is there no Recall or Class Action?

Coolant Intrusion into the cylinders

Recently I have noticed, in my 2017 Ford Edge SEL, that my coolant level in reservoir has been low a few times with no puddling anywhere under car. I have read that this is a known issue with this vehicle that has the 2.0L ECOBOOST engine. What can be done about this? From what I have been reading, this a design issue that Ford knows about but has not offered a fix. The cost to replace the engine is more than vehicle is worth. Is there some financial assistance or full coverage to cover the cost for my vehicle to be fixed? This has been an ongoing issue starting with, shifting hard at times, coolant loss with no explanation, and rough idling after cold start.

MY FORD EDGE STARTED RUNNING ROUGH, THE TEMPERATURE WAS INCONSISTENT, AND IT WAS HAVING ISSUES STARTING. THE FINAL STRAW WAS THE HEAT STOPPED WORKING IN THE MIDDLE OF WINTER. WE NOTICED THAT THE COOLANT WAS CONSISTENTLY LOW BUT THAT WAS AN ONGOING ISSUE. WE TOOK THE CAR TO THE FORD DEALER FOR A DIAGNOSTIC AND THEY CONFIRMED IT WAS A COOLANT LEAK INTO THE ENGINE AND IT NEEDED AN ENGINE REPLACEMENT. WE PAID ALMOST $10,000 FOR AN ENGINE REPLACEMENT AS WITHOUT IT THE CAR WAS WORTHLESS AND A TICKING TIME BOMB. I DIDN'T FEEL FINE SELLING IT TO SOMEONE LIKE THAT, SO WE REPAIRED THE VEHICLE WHICH HAD APPROXIMATELY 65,000 MILES ON IT AT THE TIME AND PAID OUT OF POCKET AS FORD WAS NOT WILLING TO HELP WITH THE EXPENSE AT ALL.

No surprise, our extended warranty was good up 60,000. Reading up about the problem with coolant intrusion, it seems a class action was taken with Ford but only on their 4 cylinder engines. However, I've found many other Edge owners (with the same 6 cylinder engine we have) who were dealing with coolant intrusion and costly repairs as well. Whether it's a 4 cylinder or a 6 cylinder it's apparent Ford had some manufacturing issues on their engine blocks that cause coolant to leak into the cylinders and I feel they should be held responsible for the 6 cylinders as well.

I bought this car used in 2020 with 76,000 miles on it. Three months into ownership my engine blew this was caused from coolant leaking into the cylinder. I paid $8000 to replace the engine because it was out of factory warranty fast-forward to 2025 and I am replacing the engine again because the engine that was put in it was it used one with the same problems. This is an known issue with this vehicle. It’s been widely they reported. In fact, there is a class action lawsuit. How is it fair to a consumer to spend all of this money and not have a vehicle that is free from defects that the manufacturer is aware of. I’m making payments on this car and still having to sink money into it. When are you going to help us? There are thousands of us out here.

Despite the dealer successfully performing the repair, Ford Motor Company (Case #XXX-XXX) has refused my request for reimbursement and rental assistance. Ford claims "parts are not officially available" until April 2026, yet they allowed their dealer to sell me the parts for a private repair.

While stopped at closed train tracks, my brake petal depressed about 2 inches further. After this I was having trouble breaking, I quickly pulled into a parking lot and had my car towed a nearby dealership. There is a recall out for the break line of my car, 25v544. The dealership called and confirmed that the ruptured break line is due the to outstanding recall that currently has no resolution. The dealership is trying to charge me for the repair of the break line, but promises a reimbursement once a solution is released for the recall. I believe that since the recall has had no resolution since September 2025, they have not fixed the issue in a reasonable amount of time and should not charge me for the break line repair.

Beginning in January 2026, the vehicle exhibited progressive symptoms including repeated lurching and difficulty shifting gears. These symptoms are consistent with the open and incomplete recall for the transmission shifter cable bushing and the powertrain control module reprogram. On or around March 25–26, 2026, while operating the vehicle at approximately 35 mph on a surface street, the following failure sequence occurred: the vehicle began producing a repetitive thudding sensation (thud-thud-thud), followed by violent shaking of the steering wheel, followed by a complete loss of steering response. The vehicle drifted uncontrollably into an adjacent lane of active traffic under clear, dry weather conditions — a loss of control consistent with brake hose failure causing uneven braking force, compounded by the known transmission and PCM defects. Collision with another vehicle was narrowly avoided. The vehicle currently has five open, incomplete recalls: (1) front brake flexible hose leak, (2) rear brake flexible hose leak, (3) transmission shifter cable bushing, (4) rear-view camera inspection, (5) powertrain control module reprogram. None have been completed. The described failure is consistent with and likely caused by these unresolved manufacturing defects. But the Owner has attempted multiple times to bring the vehicle to Ford but was turned away due to dealer capacity. No loaner vehicle was offered.

Reading these

NHTSA publishes every complaint as the owner wrote it and investigates only a fraction. Spelling, capitalisation and judgement are the filer’s own. What carries weight is repetition: the same component failing the same way across many filings, and whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
