P0217 on FORD EDGE

"Overheat/Power loss indication on 2016 Ford Edge with Ecoboost 2.0 resulting coolant leakage into #2 cylinder verified by dealer (failure per TSB [XXX]). Prior TSBs [XXX] have been issued for same problem, but Ford did not assign our VIN to those bulletins."

"Coolant leak, confirmed by service tech (p0036, p0217,p0301, p0316) need to replace head gasket, coolant in combustion chamber, warning message engine overheating will reduce power."

"The contact owns a 2017 Ford Edge. The contact stated while the vehicle was idling in the driveway, the temperature gauge was showing that the indicator had raised to HOT, and the message "Engine Coolant over Temperature" was displayed on the instrument cluster."

"The component that has failed is the engine. It is available upon request to be inspected. I believe the safety issue lies in that the motor overheats and is possibly a fire risk. I have had my car engine inspected by an ASE mechanic and confirmed engine block needs replaced."

"The vehicle began making water sloshing sounds behind the dashboard and the check engine light came on. Upon inspection the mechanic found the car was very low on coolant. They had to add nearly 1 gallon back. The check engine light code was due to a cylinder misfire on start up."
