In owners' own words
Was uninformed about previous recalls to this same make and model that took place prior to me getting this vehicle. Was told by Ford dealership recently once I took the vehicle for diagnostic for engine light being on that coolant has been leaking into the engine and would require a brand new engine. This has been a manufacture issue that ford has been made aware of years ago and has done absolutely nothing about. Engine
