2017 LINCOLN MKC- Wilmington, NC
Intermittent P0302 CEL codes fired for Cylinder 2 misfire, over last month. Replaced plugs and coil, Code cleared. Same CEL indicator and code fired again. Symptoms are Rough start up, coolant needing replenishment, took into dealer, coolant intrusion into cylinder 2 requiring engine replacement. This is obviously not an isolated incident with this 2.3L Ecoboost engine, what was know by Ford to flawed during the 2017-2020 period. Two months after purchase of my 2017 MKC, had to have the short block replaced, under warranty, but the head was already warped and they replaced the head gasket on a warped block knowing it was only a matter of time that it started leaking. Now out of the range of that warranty and with looming $8k expense, not happy.

2024 LINCOLN AVIATOR- Chesterfield , MI
The vehicle was already in for service once for this issue and is going back a second time the rear camera when backing up randomly starts to flicker and go crazy, and sometimes blanking out. The first fix replaced the camera to no avail. It seems to happen randomly, but about 50% of the time. I have video of the rear backup camera going crazy.

The problem with this car is that the backup camera stopped working on my car. The line are gone and the image is reversed. The dealing told me it was the camera and it was almost $1,000 to replace it. I did notdo it, but now I am finding many othes with the same broplem. The safety issue is that when I back up and I am not sure if what I am seeing is accurate.
