I replaced all 4 sparks plugs and ignition coils and the code never cleared, i started noticing while smoke when start up and suspected coolant issues. I had a diagnostician help me investigate and forums suggested coolant intrusion from poor engine block design can happen in cylinders 2 & 3, but after scoping the block, we found coolant leakage in cylinder 1.   I called ALM Ford Marietta and my rep said they'd confirm my suspicions free of charge and confirmed the results. The only repair was to do a whole engine swap with a refurbished or new longblock costing $5k for parts and $6k for labor.  I have an allowance of $3500 for vehicle repairs so i am devastated that i cannot even sell this vehicle with a bad engine. The ford 2.0 ecoboost engine forums suggest coolant intrusion is common and Ford should have fixed this problem between 2015-2019 bud did not and thousands of vehicles have this problem (fusion, focus, edge, escape) but is Ford taking responsibility that the spiral coolant application is a bad design and costing people thousands upon thousands of dollars of repairs that shouldn't have happened in the first place. I mean, i have less than 100k on my edge, why should i need a whole new engine, what is next, a new transmission for 7k next year? What happened to quality?   we are a single vehicle family so we are relying on others mercy right now to get our kid to and from school and coordinating work schedules, but will ford help clients out at all?","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2016","productMake":"FORD","productModel":"EDGE","manufacturer":"Ford Motor Company"}]}]}
