All coolant fluid got into engine and rendered it useless. My car is only 5 years old. Ford will fit a new engine but I have to pay 45% of cost, £2,250.90p. Which I can ill afford. I feel that having to pay for this is wrong as it is a fault with the eco-boost engine which Ford have known about for some time. When the dealership where my car is being repaired phoned Ford to see if just needed to fit new heads Ford told them they new of the fault and just to go ahead and fit a new engine.
This to me says Ford new of fault and they should pay full cost. I have been without a car now for 1 week and am finding it very difficult to get to and from work. I hope Ford and Mr Barratt do the right thing and remove the worry of paying for this from my shoulders.
