Ford EcoBoost Engine
The Ford EcoBoost Engine seems to have developed a defect that causes coolant to leak into the engine cylinders. This includes the 1.5-liter, 1.6-liter and 2-liter EcoBoost engine. Ford installed these EcoBoost engines on the following models:
• 2013-2019 Ford Escape • 2015-2018 Ford Edge
• 2013-2019 Ford Fusion • 2017-2019 Lincoln MKC
• 2017-2019 Lincoln MKZ
Owners who report Ford EcoBoost problems claim the coolant enters the cylinders and causes corrosion, oil dilution and contamination, leading to engine damage and expensive repairs. A class action lawsuit alleges that Ford has known about these defects and simply provided a band-aid or stop gap remedy rather than providing an actual repair. Ford published these repairs using a Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) or Special Service Message (SSM), which include the following:
• SSM 47204 – 2015-2018 Fusion/MKZ/MKC/Escape/Edge
• SSM 47462 – 2015-2018 Edge, Fusion, Focus, MKZ, MKC, Escape
• SSM 47625 – 2014-2019 Fusion and 2017-2019 Escape
