I drove less than a mile and noticed the check engine light was on. I called the  dealer to see if they could check it as I had to drive 120 miles round trip for a doctor’s appointment that day. I was told it indicated a misfire but not to be concerned; I was told it was ok to drive. They cleared the error message and told me I was good to go. The check engine light came on sporadically for a week then stayed on permanently. I called on a Friday and got it in for diagnostics the following Monday (2 weeks from servicing date.) I was told after diagnostics that the coolant was low and they needed 2 hours to remove a spark plug and check cylinder 3. I was advised that they had seen this issue previously on other Ford vehicles and it was not a cheap fix if what they suspected was happening. The Service department later confirmed there was a coolant intrusion (coolant was leaking into cylinder 3.) I was told that this has been an issue for Ford and they have redesigned the block so this can no longer happen. It would just be a matter of time before the engine would be ruined on my vehicle (2018 Ford Edge with slightly over 52000 miles.) Ford knows they have a problem with the design of the engine of the 2018 Ford Edges but they are handling each vehicle individually instead of voluntarily fixing all of them. I do not have an extended warranty so they may offer some financial assistance for the repair but if I had warranty coverage it would be entirely covered. They are pricing assistance based on warranty coverage. Ford knows they have a problem; they have redesigned the engine to eliminate the coolant intrusion. A new redesigned engine is what the dealer would put in my vehicle.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2018","productMake":"FORD","productModel":"EDGE","manufacturer":"Ford Motor Company"}]}]}
