Coolant leak issue that caused the check engine light to turn on. This defect is present within these 2019 Ford Fusion Hybrids with EcoBoost engines. My safety and the safety of my passengers was put at risk since this defect can cause coolant to leak into the cylinders, leading to corrosion, misfires, engine failure, and even potential car fires. My mechanic gave it a diagnostic check and the following issues were detected: Random Misfire Detected- Not Current DTC, Cylinder 2 Misfire Detected- Warning Lamp On, and Misfire Detected on Startup (First 1000 revolutions) - Pending DTC. He also noted that the coolant level was low. I reached out to my local Ford service department and they wouldn't assist me with this serious concern.

Car has 89,900 miles on it. Has been serviced every 5k miles. Never had an issue. And then last Friday the car started making a rattling sound under the hood. So I pulled over. No warning lights whatsoever was visible. I turned the car off checked everything and it all seemed fine. I turned back on the car and heard nothing. So I began to drive and after 2 mins the noise started again and now a warning ⚠️ light appeared and stated to pullover safely. I had it towed to shop only to find out that my engine was blown!
