Description of the problem	High engine temp, pull over safely message flashes on display and engine light comes on. Car started running rough. Fortunately was just pulling out of my driveway and didn't get over 5 mph. I backed up into garage, turned off car. Started it again and when i got to same spot (approximately 1/8 mile) the same warnings popped up. Towed to dealer upon their advise. Now they are telling me, after having the car for 6 days, that it's either the head gasket or block cracked due to coolant being low. They tested coolant and confirmed it is leaking internally. Note - i did have the recall related to the issue performed in february 2018. Now, with only 1 month left on original warranty but at 61,500 miles (so over by a smidge), ford will not repair car. If the recall was performed but the car exhibited the problem anyways, no matter how far it was driven since then, that tells me that the recall solution did not work.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
