    This vehicle has the 1.5L turbo engine and 64,xxx miles on it. Recently there has been large amounts of smoke come out of the exhaust after the car sits for several hours at a time. There are not any service/check engine lights on, however I feel as if it is only a matter of time before something bad happens to this vehicle. I have owned it since it was brand new and this is the only issue that has happened with this car. This is my wife's daily driver and with two kids and one on the way this could cause issues at a very bad time.

    I was not informed of a safety recall prior to purchasing the vehicle in August of 2022. I was told there were no recalls on it. In addition to that when I brought up my complaint with the dealership they stated they did not see the repair in there system and it was most likely due to them not updating it after a repair. I am enquiring about a failure to disclose claim and if the dealership was required to do that prior to my purchase. In addition to this, there was a coolant leak in my vehicle that leaked all over the engined and was causing it to misfire violently.

    While driving in traffic, the car suddenly lost power. Could not shift into neutral or park... Raised hood, put on hazard lights. Called AAA. About 20 minutes later, the car did start and was able to drive it to mechanic... The engine sputtered, the dashboard lights flashed on and off. Had it towed to Ford Dealership. Two weeks later, they could not diagnose or fix the problem. PS, the recall had been addressed when I had to replace the transmission when it suddenly quit in traffic.

    My 2019 Ford Escape has had engine coolant leak into the #2 cylinder and has caused engine damage and I am being told that the engine needs to be replaced. I have questioned Ford and the dealership has confirmed this damage and I am being told that Ford will not assist in replacing the engine. The vehicle has 81100 miles and in looking at other complaints this is an ongoing issues with these vehicles over several years. I would like to have Ford pay to have the engine replaced as this should be a recall condition due to ongoing issues.

    The contact owns a 2019 Ford Escape. The contact stated while driving at highway speeds, the vehicle went into LIMP Mode. The contact was able to pull over onto the emergency lane. The high temperature alert message was displayed. The vehicle was towed to the dealer where it was diagnosed, and it was determined that there was coolant intrusion into the engine block. The vehicle was repaired but the failure recurred. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic who declined to service the vehicle and referred him to the dealer for assistance. The vehicle was towed back to the same local dealer who informed the contact that the engine needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was contacted but provided no additional assistance. The failure mileage was approximately 103,000.
