Which years to avoid
- 2019 (2013–2019 (1.5T/1.6T)): EcoBoost coolant intrusion — the same failure mode as the Fusion. Unexplained coolant loss kills these engines.
- 2018 (2013–2019 (1.5T/1.6T)): EcoBoost coolant intrusion — the same failure mode as the Fusion. Unexplained coolant loss kills these engines.
- 2017 (2013–2019 (1.5T/1.6T)): EcoBoost coolant intrusion — the same failure mode as the Fusion. Unexplained coolant loss kills these engines.
- 2016 (2013–2019 (1.5T/1.6T)): EcoBoost coolant intrusion — the same failure mode as the Fusion. Unexplained coolant loss kills these engines.
- 2015 (2013–2019 (1.5T/1.6T)): EcoBoost coolant intrusion — the same failure mode as the Fusion. Unexplained coolant loss kills these engines.
- 2014 (2013–2019 (1.5T/1.6T)): EcoBoost coolant intrusion — the same failure mode as the Fusion. Unexplained coolant loss kills these engines.
- 2013 (2013–2019 (1.5T/1.6T)): EcoBoost coolant intrusion — the same failure mode as the Fusion. Unexplained coolant loss kills these engines.
What to check before you pay
- 2013–2016 1.6T: coolant leaks and fire-related recalls — VIN check is mandatory
- 1.5T/2.0T: coolant intrusion into cylinders on some engines — white exhaust smoke and coolant loss are the signs
- 2013–2016: multiple recalls (doors, steering) — confirm all completed
