2017 Lincoln MKX Engine Problems

While driving on interstate 271/480 my check engine light started flashing and my car suddenly died putting me in harms way as I tried navigating 3 lanes to get to the berm. It was towed to 2 different Lincoln dealerships where they both confirmed the engine lost compression and would need a full replacement. This vehicle is only a 2017 and 100K miles and shouldn't have total engine failure at that age. I read articles on NHTSA investigating Ford engines and feel this may have a similar engine issue and is worth investigating. Please let me know how I can assist.

I WAS DRIVING AT 50 MPH ON A MAIN HIGHWAY WHEN SUDDENLY HEARD A BELL TONE, THE CAR BEGAN TO SLOW DOWN, THE ENGINE HAD SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL AND THE MESSAGE CENTER STATED THE ENGINE WAS SHUTTING OFF. I STEERED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND RESTARTED THE ENGINE. THIS HAS LEFT ME QUITE SHAKEN AS WE HAVE ONLY OWNED THIS VEHICLE FOR A LITTLE OVER 2 WEEKS AND DO NOT KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT. WE HAVE SEEN THIS HAS OCCURRED WITH OTHER OWNERS, ALSO.

DURING HARD ACCELERATION, THE SMELL OF ROTTEN EGGS ENTERS THE CABIN REGARDLESS OF WHAT TYPE OF FAN IS BLOWING (AIR CONDITIONING - FRESH AIR OR RECIRCULATE). LINCOLN UNDER A TSB CLAIMED THAT THEY FIXED THE PROBLEM BY RESEALING THE REAR SEALS TO THE REAR HATCH. THE SMELL CONTINUES AND IF YOU DO RESEARCH, THIS IS A WIDESPREAD PROBLEM IN FORD EDGE'S, EXPLORER'S AND LINCOLN MKX'S. FORD DOESN'T SEEM TO THINK THAT EXHAUST ENTERING THE CABIN FOR WHICH THEY DO NOT HAVE FIX FOR IS WORTHY OF A SYSTEM WIDE RECALL. I SUSPECT THAT CARBON MONOXIDE AND OTHER POISONOUS GASES ARE ENTERING THE CABIN AND CANNOT BE GOOD FOR THE OCCUPANTS... THIS ISSUE WAS PRESENT FROM THE FIRST DAY I LEASED THE VEHICLE.
