Official summary

Some 2016 edge/mkx vehicles equipped with a 2.7l engine and built on 1-apr-2016 and through 1-oct-2016 may exhibit a rough idle in neutral or park at normal operating temperature or after a hot restart, white or blue smoke from the exhaust, excessive oil consumption and/or an illuminated malfunction indicator lamp (mil) with diagnostic trouble codes (dtcs) p0300, p0301, p0302, p0303, p0304, p0305, p0306 and/or p0316.

What a TSB means. Technical service bulletins are repair guidance manufacturers send to dealers — they are not recalls, and repairs are not automatically free (warranty extensions are an exception worth checking). The full document is available via NHTSA’s vehicle lookup.
