2018 Ford Edge engine problems

“Coolant leak into the cylinders which has caused misfires & overheating. Vehicle no longer starts and has a complete engine failure. not even 75,000 miles have been put on the car.”

“The vehicle experienced a sudden loss of engine power, violent shaking on cold starts, and a low coolant warning light. A formal inspection has confirmed catastrophic internal coolant intrusion into the cylinders, requiring a complete engine long-block replacement. The official repair estimate from the shop is $9297.30 at 81,320 miles. This failure directly matches the manufacturing defect detailed in Ford TSB 19-2346 and is part of the open NHTSA investigation into 2015-2018 Ford Edge engine power loss. The threat of sudden engine failure while driving presents a severe highway safety hazard.”

“I have a 2018 Ford Edge with the 2.0L EcoBoost engine. Currently the head gasket is cracked and coolant is constantly dripping out under hood. Im constantly running out of coolant and my engine light is on.”

“While driving our 2018 Ford Edge we noticed a sudden loss of power, hesitation, white smoke during operation and a loss of coolant. Vehicle idles poorly and sometimes dies when stopped at stop lights.”

“"I am reporting a severe, known manufacturing defect involving internal coolant intrusion on my 2018 Ford Edge 2.0L EcoBoost, which has caused total engine failure and rendered the vehicle entirely unsafe and completely inoperable. The vehicle began throwing codes P0300 (Random Misfire), P0302 (Cylinder 2 Misfire), and P0303 (Cylinder 3 Misfire) due to liquid coolant flooding the combustion chambers. The engine is now completely locked and will not start, stranding me at home with no transportation. This is a critical safety issue. Liquid coolant leaking into active engine cylinders poses an immediate risk of sudden engine stalling while driving, loss of motive power in traffic, and potential engine fire hazards. This failure matches Ford's own Technical Service Bulletin (TSB 22-2229), proving Ford has long-standing knowledge of this hazardous design defect. When I contacted Ford Motor Company corporate customer service for emergency assistance and towing to a dealership, Ford explicitly refused to assist me and instructed me to contact class-action plaintiff's attorneys instead. Ford is actively refusing to remedy a severe, known safety hazard for a stranded…”

“Check engine light appeared, heat stopped working, and received alerts for overheated coolant for 5 second intervals before it would disappear. Mechanic evaluation: Technician performed diagnostic inspection due to multiple engine fault codes, overheating, and engine misfire conditions. Upon inspection, technician found evidence of an internal cylinder head gasket failure allowing engine coolant to leak into the combustion chamber and cylinder wall area. Coolant intrusion into the affected cylinder is causing improper combustion, resulting in engine misfire, especially during initial start up. The internal coolant leak can also contribute to coolant loss, overheating, and internal engine damage.”
