2 Coolant Leaking problem

Failure Date: 06/18/2020

Accelerating down the highway when vehicle suddenly became unresponsive and sluggish. Check engine light began flashing. Pulled off highway. Had it towed to a Ford dealer. They confirmed that it was a known and common issue on the 1. 6l and 2. 0l ecoboost engines where coolant leaks into the number 4 cylinder causing low compression and potential overheating rendering vehicle undrivable. Ford quoted me $6,500 for a new engine, as they stated, is the only fix. Consumers should not be on the hook because of a clear and obvious design flaw as stated by Ford included in the 1. 6l ecoboost recall, but has not issued a recall to include the 2. 0l ecoboost engines. (see attached link regarding possible class action suit as prepared by a nashville law firm) countless others have complained on here and other forums. A recall needs to be issued immediately to include the 2014 Fusion 2. 0l ecoboost engines!!! please refer to below link. . . Read more...

3 Coolant Leaking problem

Failure Date: 06/04/2020

I was driving on the highway when I got the notification that my car was running hot. I wasn't to far from home so I decided to keep driving, when I slowed down it would level out but when I would speed up I would get the notification again. My husband put coolant in it that day but within two weeks we got the notification again and had to purchase more coolant to put in the car and then another two weeks we got the notification again. Had to put even more coolant. Took it to the dealership and they say that my coolant is leaking into my engine and it will be 6500 to repair. I have been researching the problem and other Fords have had recalls dealing with the coolant but my car was not included in those recalls.

6 Coolant Leaking problem

Failure Date: 10/04/2019

While driving the vehicle on the highway after driving for 4 hours the coolant overheating light flashed on but went off the temp gauge went from cool to hot and back to cool. Car sputtered like it was going to stall I pushed on gas to keep it from cutting out but I had gas pedal all the way down and it barely gave it a boost car reluctantly kept moving until about 45 min down the road the coolant overheating light stayed on and car sputtered and totally died. Next day was towed and they replaced the oxygen sensor. Car was low on coolant but they couldn't find a leak. Was able to drive for 2 days before everything happened again. Our repair man said we need to take it to the Ford dealer which we will do this week with not much hope due to previous visits with Ford. Codes engine coolant over temperature condition, cylinder 4 misfire detected, misfire detected on startup( first 1000 revolutions).

7 Coolant Leaking problem

Failure Date: 08/02/2019

My 2014 Ford Fusion with 54,000 miles has an engine problem. Somehow the coolant/anti-freeze was allowed to leak into the engine. Initially I sent it to Ford of waxahachie, TX when the light first came on. The dealership said it was low coolant and sent my car home. 5 days later I'm 20 miles from home and it overheats again and the check engine light comes on. The coolant continued to get into the engine through warped gasket or cylinder and this time it ruined my engine. I took it back to the Ford and they don't want to take any of the blame on the misdiagnosis. Instead they prefer I pay $6,000 for a new engine.
