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.
