Description of the problem | My car kept shutting off on me and i took it to my dealer and they said the coolant was leaking into my cylinder head and i needed a new engine. I see on here that there are multiple recalls for this model dealing with the coolant leaking. However, the dealer called ford and was told it was not covered. My car is only 4 years old and i need a complete new engine for $9,000 dollars. I'm not sure who to complain to or how to get this handled but i don't have $9k laying around. I work two jobs as it is and i can't afford it. |
