FORD ENGINE & ENGINE COOLING Complaints

Prior to this, my had no issues and I had been driving it all day. When coming home from some errands, the engine light suddenly came on and and then my car began shutting off on the highway. We were in the middle lane with cars going 70 miles a hour with no power in our own car, putting us in extreme danger. We were able to get it to the side of the highway and go through a series of starting it, having it run for a mile or so, and then having the engine shut down again. We were able to get it to a Ford dealership and it was inspected. Our garage immediately knew to look at the coolant cylinder to see if it was cracked and leaking as they have seen this issue multiple times. It was, in fact, cracked and coolant was leaking into our engine. Both a Ford representative and the dealership confirmed this is an issue with multiple of these engines but no recall has been enacted. They suggested we write a complaint to the National Highway and Traffic Safety Administration.

The coolant is leaking into the engine block. This is a no problem with these engines. I may have to replace the engine.

Check engine light continually comes on and off since August 2022. I currently have 56642.0 miles on vehicle and always get routine maintenance and oil changes. Never had this issue untill this year. Please look into this issue Ford. Next week I will have a diagnostic done and will file another complaint if this is a serious and expensive engine service I will need. Thank you.

I HAVE A 2017 FORD EXPLORER. THE PASSENGER SIDE WINDSHIELD TRIM RIPPED OFF AS I WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH AND FLEW UP IN THE AIR AND LANDED BEHIND ME. FORTUNATELY, THERE WAS NOT A VEHICLE BEHIND ME. THE DRIVER'S SIDE WAS LOOSE, AND I GLUED IT DOWN WITH GORILLA GLUE AS A TEMPORARY HOLD. SINCE THAT TIME, I HAVE NOTICED MANY EXPLORERS WITH THE SAME MISSING WINDSHIELD TRIM. I FEEL THIS POSES A DANGER NOT NECESSARILY TO THE DRIVER, BUT OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD.
