Car was misfiring, so i took the car to the dealership. There is coolant leaking into the engine cylinders and there is white exhaust smoke. They tell me that this is a known manufacturer defect. There is even a technical service bulletin by ford recognizing the defect. Tsb-19-2346. The repair requires the engine block to be replaced. Cost is over 6k.
