Description of the problem | There was a leak from the radiator fluid into the engine block that resulted in a blown head gasket. There was no warn light suggesting that the coolant level was low, which may have prevented the problem. There has been a factory recall for this exact situation on the exact same make model and year of my vehicle, but somehow my vehicle was not included. Please see attached recall letter from ford |
