I / the owner of my 2017 Ford Fusion se 1. 5l had a seized engine occur on my commute home from work. White smoke billowed and brewed out my exhaust as I was in the right lane. I immediately pulled over to see what was going wrong and almost caused a collision for the person behind me. . After getting it towed the next day off the side of the highway I brought it to a reputable mechanic stating that this is a problematic issue with this vehicle and my engine block failed & cracked. Proceeding this, I went to another mechanic to get a second thought, just in case. Same response to the issue. Apparently, this is a huge issue with the 1. 5l. I was quoted $4,800 to fix this issue, money I don't have laying around, my warranty recently expired and both fred beans of langhorne & Ford motor company both told me to "pound sand" because of this issue. That this whole issue is on me to be fixed. Even though I brought my car in for the program 19b37 recall - which fixes the computer system to "prevent" this issue. " the vehicle has been in and out of the local shop for cylinder misfires, spark plug fouls & engine start up issues. Which apparently are leading signs to the vehicle engine block issue. It was determined that a new engine was needed and have found bulletins stating this is due to a manufacturing defect known by Ford as Ford had released the bulletins. This defect leads to engine failure and is nothing caused by the driver but solely due to the fact that when certain engines were manufactured they were manufactured incorrectly. Such as the 1. 5l. Ford is unwilling to pay for engine replacement even though they have admitted this is fault during the manufacturing processes if the engine is to stall or seize during driving this could lead to serious injury, accident, and even death. Ford is not recalling this engine at this time. Please recall this, now.
