My 2017 Fusion, with ecoboost engine began using coolant, replaced spark plug in 2nd cylinder and continually have to add coolant to keep car from overheating. Car shut down and overheated on way home from work. Added even more coolant. Ford now tells me we have to have a new engine and we are out of warranty since car has 80k miles on it. $5900 new engine because a known issue hasn't been addressed by Ford to make it right.
