IT IS GOING TO COST ME ALMOST 7000 WHICH IS RIDICULOUS WHEN ITS A DEFAULT IN THE ENGINE. *TR
Additional Notes:
2016 FORD FUSION WAS SPUTTERING WHEN STARTED AND KILLED ONCE. I HAD RECENTLY BROUGHT IT TO FORD AND MY COOLANT WAS VERY LOW. THEY SAID MY SPARK PLUGS NEEDED TO BE CHANGED. GOT IT BACK AND THE NEXT DAY IT WAS WORSE. WHEN I BROUGHT IT BACK TO FORD THEY THEN TOLD ME MY ENGINE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE COOLANT WAS IN MY CYLINDERS AND ON SPARK PLUGS. NOT ONLY DID THEY NOT ADDRESS THIS WHEN THEY CHANGED MY SPARK PLUGS 3 DAYS PRIOR. YOU KNOW DARN GOOD AND WELL THEY SAW THIS AND DID A COMPRESSION TEST ON MY CYLINDERS. THIS IS AN ISSUE WITH MANY FORD FUSIONS AND THEY ARE REFUSING TO REPLACE MY ENGINE WHEN THEY KNOW IT IS A FACTORY DESIGN DEFAULT. IT IS GOING TO COST ME ALMOST 7000 WHICH IS RIDICULOUS WHEN ITS A DEFAULT IN THE ENGINE. *TR

ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
AT APPROXIMATELY 70000 MILES THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE ENGINE WOULD RUN ROUGH WHEN STARTED BUT WOULD SMOOTH OUT AND OPERATE FINE. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WENT OFF AFTER A FEW DAYS AND WOULD REPEAT EVERY WEEK OR SO. AT 73000 MILES THE CHECK ENGINE CAME ON AND THE ENGINE WAS MISFIRING. TOOK TO THE FORD DEALER AND WAS DIAGNOSED AS P0301 AND P0316 CYLINDER 1 MISFIRE. PRESSURE TESTED COOLANT SYSTEM LOSING PRESSURE. TRIED TO REMOVE #1 SPARKPLUG COULD NOT BE REMOVED. DIAGNOSED "MOST LIKELY NEEDS A LONG BLOCK BECAUSE OF SPARK THREADS AND SHORT BLOCK ISSUES WITH THESE". ESTIMATED COST $7000. THE DEALER FILED A REQUEST WITH FORD FOR COST RELIEF WHICH, AFTER A WEEK, WAS DENIED. I CALLED FORD CUSTOMER RELATIONS AND ASKED FOR HELP ON ESCALATING THE ISSUE AND WAS TOLD TO HAVE THE DEALER FILE AN APPEAL WHICH I HAVE REQUESTED. SEEMS LIKE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS ENGINE GIVEN THE COMPLAINTS HERE AND THE COMMENTS FROM THE DEALER PERSONNEL.
