My engine just blew. And I went to A-1 custom car care and they told me it would be around $10,000. I drive a 2017 Ford Escape turbo boost. Hopefully you get a lot lower of a price.

I think we are talking about two different shops. But I'll be working on an 85 toyota celica so it'll probably be cheaper. Those eco boosts ford's are expensive to fix for sure

How does an engine blow on a 2017?

The coolant was leaking into my engine. There is a class action lawsuit against Ford about this issue. They know its happening and not doing any recalls to fix it. Mine blew while going down the highway.

It's a ford with eco boost regardless of the other stuff that alone is a bomb
