Numerous other Ford vehicle owners with vehicles containing the defective engine have reported the exact same failures and coolant leaks, as determined by Ford service technicians or other auto repair technicians. Ford as the manufacturer knows of their defective design but refuses to replace the engine through their expense by recall or other means. The check engine light is illuminated due to the engine misfiring because of the coolant leak, which causes failed emissions tests and does not allow me to be able to register the vehicle according to state and county requirements. Attached are a picture of the current engine’s defect and a new engine. The defect in the old engine is a slit cut into the wall between cylinders. This compromises the integrity of the cylinder walls and engine as a whole. The newer engines are manufactured after 2020 and they have removed the defective slit and replaced it with a drilled hole that doesn’t compromise the engine.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2017","productMake":"FORD","productModel":"ESCAPE","manufacturer":"Ford Motor Company"}]}]}
