2016 FORD FOCUS Fuel/propulsion System Problems

Having fuel problems with this ford se. Adding gas after starting the car it doesn't run right. It misses n doesn't have power. Plus Transmission went out two times again. First time it went out. It was about a year ago. Now the second time [XXX]. First time was about a year ago. It was repaired. Because I had a car warranty from the car dealer ship. Now they won't repair it again. This ford focus Se had the double clutch in it Plus the notorious speed shifter known to go out. These transmissions are known to have problems. But the car place never told me.

The car is stalling randomly with no engine lights coming on

Fuel pump went out and caused car to stall and leave me stranded on the side of the road when dash indicator showed 23 miles left to travel. I had this fixed through the dealership Drive Time sent me to mechanic shop as was still under dealership warranty.

Went to refuel my car with gas. Got into my car and it didn’t start right away. When it finally did the check engine light came on. I took to go check it out and was told the fuel tank/canister purge valve was faulty. I tried contacting ford to see if under warranty and or recalled. But nothing has come out of it. My 2016 Ford Focus only has 67k miles on it

Check engine light illuminated followed by unresponsive throttle. Pulled over and the car immediately stalled. Would not restart. Came back with code P1450. There's an open recall for that exact code for 2015-2018 focus, however the 1.0L supposedly "not affected" so my vehicle is not eligible.

I am dealing with a dual clutch going bad the car is stalling hesitating and loosing power very dangerous to drive. Also i just replaced transmission without finding any help from ford even there was a recall now my dual clutch is going on and there was a recall i never got to be apart of when i first got the car in 2015. I need help please point in the direction i feel like ford should fixed this buy the car back

My clutch and or transmission is malfunctioning. When I drive up hill the car shudders and I lose power, it's a risk when another vehicle or pedestrian is behind me. When I accelerate from a full stop, same symptoms. If in an emergency I have to move I would be at risk because then the vehicle would hesitate. The issue was confirmed with the manufacturer's dealership service center. No warning lamps, no messages just a sudden appearance of the symptoms that were progressively getting worse. I looked up two separate customer satisfaction programs which I believe I should be eligible but bought the vehicle after their expiration and even though I think the vehicle satisfies the programs' terms, the manufacturer did not include my vehicle's vin.

I was driving the speed limit at 65 MPH down a steep hill, I felt something "drop" and then the oil lamp and "Engine Fault Error" displayed. I was unable to drive faster than 30 mph. I was fortunate that no one was following close behind. I had to put on my hazards and drive half a mile more to find a safe place to pull off the road. I had to have my vehicle towed 60 miles to the nearest mechanic. I was informed that the problem was related to a known recall, but there are no parts to fix the problem and it will be months until they do. My vehicle cannot be driven and is sitting at the dealership until it can be repaired and they cannot tell me when that will be.

Stearing went out and car would not start after filling tank with gas

Mileage: 137,823

Kept getting my check engine light is says something about bleed up pressure in the fuel tank which when driving my throttle is not as responsive and when I fill up from Empty I have to give it some gas in. Order to start and would sit at the red light or a stop sign with the clutch pressed in and it would sputter and stall which I would have to give it gas to restart the car

The evap purge valve assembly failed. An engine warning lamp did appear. While driving down the interstate the incorrect fuel mixture caused the vehicle to stall while in motion with my wife, and at the time, [XXX] son were in vehicle. Although there was no accident, all power was lost and the vehicle had to maneuvered into the shoulder to prevent rear ending other vehicles. This was the 2nd time in 2 weeks. The vehicle was called into the Ford recall line, as there has been an open recall on the vehicle model and year. The ford recall line said the vehicle was not affected by the recall, and no recall repairs had been made the vehicle. The ford recall rep recommended to take the vehicle to a ford dealership. The vehicle has been inspected by a Ford dealership. The dealership confirmed the issue was the issue seen in previous recalls, but the dealership stated they could see a previous dealership had made the recall repaired (in contrast to the ford recall representative’s statement). So, the vehicle was either not repaired under either of the (2) active recalls (as stated by the ford dealership), or the recall fix to update the software and replace the evap purge valve is not effective, leaving the vehicle in an unsafe condition to operate. The rich mix of fuel caused by the failure has led to a clogged catalytic converter. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Check engine light P1450 fuel system vacuum. So many complaints of the same issue of the vehicle stalling and shuddering. The dealership refuses to even look at my vehicle. This is a serious safety concern. Someone needs to intervene because there are too many of us now driving dangerous vehicles because their parts don’t work properly and the dealerships are telling us there’s nothing they can do. UNACCEPTABLE Additionally, my clutch assembly WAS recalled but the dealership must have reported my vehicle fixed because the recall is no longer showing up. THIS IS FALSE! They NEVER FIXED IT! It has never actually been fixed even though I have taken it in easily 10 times.

I am experiencing two significant issues with my 2016 Ford Focus, both of which closely match known recall problems documented for this model and year. However, my vehicle’s VIN does not currently show an active recall, and Ford has not covered the repairs. Canister Purge Valve (Error Code P1450): The canister purge valve in my vehicle is malfunctioning, leading to rough idling, poor fuel economy, and difficulties starting the engine. This issue also triggered the check engine light. My research shows that similar problems were included in a Ford recall for the 2016 Ford Focus, where a defective purge valve could cause stalling and inaccurate fuel readings. Despite these similarities, my VIN is not covered under this recall. Transmission Control Module (TCM) Issues: My vehicle also has transmission performance problems linked to the Transmission Control Module (TCM), causing hard shifting, irregular transmission behavior, and occasional failure to engage properly. The TCM issues are well-documented among 2016 Ford Focus vehicles, some of which were included in recalls and extended warranty programs, but my vehicle is excluded from this coverage. Given that these issues directly impact the vehicle's drivability and safety, I am requesting an investigation into why vehicles with similar symptoms are not covered by these recalls. These issues pose potential safety risks, including sudden stalling and compromised transmission performance. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

The malfunction light came on in my car I had a mechanic check the code that came up and he said it was the canister purge valve! Then I noticed whenever I put fuel in my car it was hard to start it would sputter and almost die !

i know there is already a recall for other ford focuses with this same issue. my cpv is not working. the car breaks down every time i fuel and its a huge safety hazard as this happens far from my home usually and its very scary for me. i heard it can ruin my engine.

My 2016 Ford Focus SE is stalling at higher temperatures while driving at high speeds, which is very dangerous. This issue occurs primarily during hotter daily temperatures. I have previously taken the vehicle in for the recall (NHTSA Campaign Number: 18V735000) related to the Canister Purge Valve (CPV) malfunction, which was supposed to address excessive vacuum in the fuel vapor management system. However, this did not resolve the stalling issue. This has stalled my car out at interstate highway speeds (75 MPH) which makes me lose power steering and acceleration and has nearly ended in accidents numerous of times due to this.

My car stalled several times and then one day it stalled on a busy street near my school and would not start. I had to pay to have it towed to a mechanic. He replaced the CPV and told me that my gas tank was now dented and needed to be replaced. My fuel gauge does not correctly gauge fuel because of the dented tank. My VIN is not included in the recall for this problem, but it is clearly affected by the same issue. I cannot trust how far I can drive as a result. I am constantly worried that my car will just run out of gas even though I put gas in it every day.

Cannister Purge Valve is stuck, causing stalls at any speed. There are thousands of Ford Focus vehicles with a recall for this issue, but not this one as per VIN

Collapsed fuel tank . Car stalls out.

Vehicle engine consistently stalls while driving resulting in dangerous or deadly situations. 4/8/24 was the 5th engine stalling incident.

UNKNOWN. I believe this vehicle's engine is also impacted by the recall campaign number 18V735000, even though the engine is a 2.0L L4. The same issues that are mentioned in the recall campaign occurred with this vehicle around the 60k milage and 120k milage mark. These issues seems to happen every 60k miles. I did report this same issue with this system with this vehicle when this happened when the milage hit around 60k. The engine check light did show up each time this happened and the vehicle would stall immediately, even while driving at interstate speeds of around 70mph.

PURGE CANISTER VALVE SYSTEM FAILURE. CAR SPUTTERS AND WONT START WHEN GAS IS PUT INTO THE CAR. CAR JERKS. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON.

My ford focus had experienced a clutch slipping and is stuck in 2 gear. The car also had antifreeze leak during this event. This occurred on January 31,2023. My Ford dealership is quoted a $3,240 repair cost for clutch system on an automatic transmission. Ford case number CXH01481389.

After receiving a routine oil change in December 2023, my vehicle began malfunctioning. The oil, engine, and battery lights came on abruptly. I returned to the Valvoline location (approx. 1 mile from my home) and they redid the oil change and noted that there were no signs of a leak and advised that I send the car to get a diagnostic done. My car stalled twice as I was driving it home. I then had the car towed to the dealership I purchased it from (Hyundai owned). They advised that an oil tensioner belt near the engine had shredded and pieces had lodged in the engine. Shortly after, the recall was released. Since then Ford has been zero help. I understand that the parts for the new belt are needed, however I need a new engine now due to their negligence. I've contacted Ford directly on numerous occasions as well as my local dealership and they won't release any information because it is in advance notice. I'm expected to wait until April or May for repairs. That will put me at almost six months or more without a vehicle and no viable options. That is not a timely fix for such a dangerous issue.

My gas tank system my engine light came on so I took my vehicle to the nearest auto zone to put on the machine and it popped up a code for a canister purge valve piece. My safety was put at risk because it was messing with my gas can’t fill my take up so I can get stranded really quick especially if I’m far from a gas station that offers my gas which is E85. No it haven’t I tried but ford claim they didn’t see no recalls in my vehicle but I have pics from other ppl of the recalls .my engine light came on I don’t remember the date but it was a while ago still didn’t get it checked out yet

Mileage: 112,162

Two weeks after an oil change (not by Ford) my 2016 Ford Focus 5dr EcoSport engine lost power climbing a hill outside my home. On inspection two mechanics told me it needed a new engine. $8000 for me to pay. The local Ford dealer replaced the engine and gave me a 3yr unlimited mileage warranty. No symptoms prior to the failure, now that is a recall (Campaign/NHTSA#23S64/23V905) I would like Ford to reimburse all of us who are out of pocket.

Check engine light keeps coming on and it give error EVAP control system fault/unable to bleed up fuel tank vacuum

Vehicle will stale after driving for some time engine light shows fuel system issue similar similar to other Ford focus models.

Vehicle hesitates, stutters and stalls when accelerating at any speed. The dealership told us it is either a transmission module or fuel module problem. They don’t have parts to fix it. There’s been a recall and a lawsuit about this same year, make and model, but they tell us our Vin is not included in any of this. it continues to do this to this day. The dealership wants us to drop it off and leave it for 3 to 4 weeks. We can’t be without a car so we are struggling with it. We wrote Ford Motor Company a letter and they told us to contact you. The lawsuit that they lost, gave us an extended warranty, but they refuse to honor it.

Have been dealing with error codes for cpv, something about fuel, and air intake. The vehicle continuously stalls. Difficult to get it to start after fueling up. Sputters at various different speeds from 5mph to about 50mph. The vehicle will totally shut down on me out of gas even at over a quarter tank to half tank full according to the gauge. I dont have dates for the incidents because they are consistent at this point.

the car shut off doing 60mph it was very scary took it to mechanic it had 2 codes the check engine light was on they cleaned the throttle body it ran but was struggling and rough idling drove to work and it wanted to stall multiple times put it in neutral to get idle up at a light then it stalled at a light drove home very afraid that it would shut off again took to the same mechanic to explain what happened have appt for estimate to fix . i need this car for work and am very scared to drive it as is never know when it will shut off called the dealer that sold me the car and all they said was theres no recalls and bring it in. i had an extended warranty but they said i was over by 1000 miles so no warranty i wont drive it there its a long drive. driving for many years i have never felt unsafe in a vehicle before this is very dangerous and needs to be resolved asap . also still have a loan for this car that i cant drive along with the repair costs my wife called ford directly and they said theres no recall and werent helpful at all

I was driving about 45 mph when my car started 2 shack and buck like it was about 2 die. So I pulled over and then it died and took forever to start back. So I took it 1 Midas and they said it was something to do with the vacuum in my gas take. So they reset the computer and told me if I had anymore issues being it back. Well today I stopped at the gas station and filled my car up and it would not start back. So I had it towed back to the shop and they pushed my gas tank flapper open 2 relief the pressure.

Issue with CPV. Car stalls when getting gas due to ventilation issue. Has manufacturer code P1450 which is recalled for similar cars

Having issues with the purge valve canister causing the vehicle to stall while driving on a highway late at night. Knowing that this is an issue with other vehicle made in the same year and knowing there is a recall for those parts but not on my vehicle is confusing to me.

My car has become hard to start after I fill up with gas. It also randomly loses all power. While driving everything in the car stops. It displays a message that says transmission is not in park, like I turned the key off but I did not. After this it won't start and displays a message on the dash that says "system start up fault". If I wait a few minutes it starts again . This has happened 3 times. I had a mechanic pull any codes. The only code is for a gasket in the evap system. The mechanic told me that Ford had a recall for this problem so I had the car towed to a Ford service center. The Ford dealer told me that my car is not included in the recall. I looked up Ford recalls and my car exhibits all of the problems described in the recall.

Have tried repeatedly to get the CPV recall performed however all dealerships or authorized repair locations have been giving me multi month waits since it started showing the alarm code for it in Dec. 2021. Due to it being the only vehicle my family has we were out in a wait list to bring it in when they had the parts and never got called back. Now the Transaxle is not engaging 4/5/6th gear intermittently. Was informed that it would be 3K for a new transaxle even though I have not had the vehicle for that long.

Almost a year ago I noticed my check engine light came on and so I checked the codes which is P1450 - Unable To Bleed Up Fuel Tank Vacuum - Ford - Powertrain. Everytime I fill the gas tank the engine studders and fails upon startup, usually on the 3 or 4th start the engine finally idle and I'm able to change gears. I thought this was the issue that was supposed to be resolved back in 2019 when I took my car into Ford to have the recall issue fixed. Well whatever they did back then didn't fix it and looks like I'm not the only one this is happening to.

7 year old car requires full engine replacement due to lost compression. For the 2 1/2 years I've owned it 1 entire year has been spent either stranded on the insterstate or at the dealership service repair. Fuel gauge does not monitor or distrubute correct fuel available. I have spent $600 in tows to the dealership . Multiple reports/complaints have been filed against this model & year includeing with NHTSA. "Common problems found on the 2016 Ford Focus include the transmission shuddering, engine failures, as well as issues with the power steering system. Overall, these problems are more severe than in other compact cars, leading to expensive repair bills when parts fail" Please investigate quickly as this is safety related as well as consumer gouging

Hello this complaint is in reference to recall #18S32. I had issues with my vehicle telling me I had gas when it was really empty. The dealership got me in, said it was a recall and repaired it quickly for me, This was in 2019. The past couple months my vehicle is stalling when I get gas. It's usually always associated with me getting gas. I had some mechanics check it out and they all said it was the purge evaporator valve. They informed me to contact the dealership because there should be a recall on this issue. I contacted them and was told there isn't. So I haven't gotten it fixed because well money. I looked it up and there is a recall on that specific thing but the dealership is claiming it was "fixed" in 2019, and they cannot fix it again. I contacted ford and they told me the same thing. I'm just at a lost and concerned because I do not know who to contact or where to go from here since this issue is still tied to a recall issue that was supposedly "fixed"

Car stalled at stop sign after filling up on gas. Completely shut off. Would not start back up for 30 seconds. No check engine lights on. It has done this multiple times and I have taken it to the shop but they can’t find a problem. I know there was a recall on the 2.0 but this is a 1.0

There is a recall with Ford of 2018 Ford Focus Recall Item Affected: FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINEDate Announced: 10/22/2018 The description of this recall is what is happening to my car, but because my vin doesn't show up they won't look at it. There are no codes, but as I turn on the car and go to drive within 45 seconds it's stalls, in traffic or wherever. I need help.

While driving on the highway my 2016 ford focus stalled without warning and would not start until after having it towed. When I go to the gas station after filling the gas tank my vehicle is either hard to start or doesn't start until after waiting a while. This happens often. My check engine light stays on and it smells like gas from the outside. The front-end apron of my vehicle has recently fallen off without warning and for no reason. I took my vehicle to San Tan Ford in Gilbert, Arizona where I purchased my 2016 Ford Focus in May of 2016. The technicians' diagnosis was engine light ml on 2pcm code p1450 p0507 fuel tank leaking replace leaking fuel tank and recommend new fuel pump possible damaged from excessive vacuum applied to tank code p1450 replace canister purge valve for code p1450 stuck open & retest. Dealership and Ford Motor Company is refusing to do repairs stating that my VIN number does not have any recalls and refused to check my front-end apron joints for recall 17S03 although my front-end apron has unattached for no reason. the technician also included that the front-end motor mount is collapsed and recommend replacing mount. Water Pump Replacement inspection found leaking recommend replacing water pump. Also, the degas bottle cracked and leaking coolant and Damaged from excessive Vacuum applied to tank The Canister Purge Valve malfunction causing excessive vacuum in the vapor management system. Stuck canister purge valves cause it to stall. If the CPV is replaced, dealers should inspect and replace the carbon canister, fuel tank and fuel delivery module as necessary. Bearing failed as the result of a sudden overload caused by vibration or imbalance compounded by rapid engine acceleration. This overloads the bearing generating a great deal of heat. Amplified through rapid acceleration and high RPM operation.

1st Started having issues with advancing, at idle stops,when engaging fuel, it will hesitate and run poorly. after a week, engine light started turning on, and stating that transmission, was running hot, and need it to stop and cool down. after the 2nd time, the vehicle runs rought, and grinding can be heard by shifting gear. An off duty Ford worker, checked vehicle with a computer and stated that the transmission clutch had gone out. checked the internet and stated that Ford Focus from 2012 to 2016 had a recall. yet I enter my vin number and nothing is said. I am currently paying my vehicle and can not drive it, have 3 children, and no money to repair. can you please help.

I believe the power train and some component with the fuel system. Yes it is available for inspection. The car shut off in the middle of traffic. This has happened multiple times. It has not been confirmed by a dealership or service center. The vehicle has been inspected. No warning lamps or messages.

So I have this Ford Focus that my son drives. Check engine light came on with the code of P1450. It is part of the NHTSA Campaign Number: 18V735000. Took it to the dealer and they told me that my vin # [XXX] is not part of the campaign/recall and will have to pay to have it fixed. Don't know why the dealer could get this resolved. Ford's recall number is:18S32. Car has all the symptoms of the recall/campaign. Don't know why Ford will not fix it for me? I would like my car to be added to this campaign/recall. The Transmission was another big issue, but I am thinking it is fixed after 5 tries. Thank you for you help.

My Ford focus will stall, there is fuel in the tank and the rpms drop and the vehicle starts to shake.

Engine light came on I scanned my car code p1450 unable to bleed up fuel tank vacuume. Same issue I had with another vehicle of this type

I got my 2016 Ford Focus in the summer of 2019 and from the start i had issues. The first issue was my car overheating the coolant tank kept getting a hole burned in it and the coolant would leak leaving my car to overheat I've had the tank replaced twice. The second issue was my car just kept turning off still don't know what that was about. Third issue was the vehicle not telling me the correct amount of gas i had it would say i would have a good amount of gas, but it really had little to no gas. The last issue was the Transmisson the car was stalling and gave me kick back that's the only way i can describe it I took it to my mechanic because there was no recall when i looked up my VIN, I paid almost $4000 for the transmission to be fixed to just bring it back to the mechanic because the transmission started giving me problems again. My mechanic told me that Hes having problems figuring out the programming. Today 12/08/2022 I read an article talking about how thousands of Ford Focus owners are having the same issue. I was never contacted by Ford. I called my local ford dealership, and they told me the part that my vehicle needs are on back order and they can't even look at my car until February.

car keeps stalling plus having fuel pump problems. Car shuts off and has trouble starting.

I am getting a check engine light. P01450 which is the Stuck canister purge valve issue. NHTSA Campaign number 18V735000. Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2012-2018 Ford Focus vehicles with a 2.0L GDI or 2.0L GTDI engine. The Canister Purge Valve (CPV) may malfunction, possibly causing excessive vacuum in fuel vapor management system. Dealer said my Ford was not part of recall. Ford Recall number is 18S32. Can you assist with this? It's my son's car and needs it for college. Want to make sure it is safe. Thank you.

I was exiting Parking lot into busy intersection when vehicle suddenly hesitated and stalled completely. Was hard to restart and kept stalling after that. Very dangerous when traveling on busy streets when it stalls and steering wheel locks up. As I accelerate the car violently jerks and has hard time shifting and getting up to speed maybe a “slipping” feeling and engine is constantly misfiring and stalling. Idles very rough when stopped RPM jumps all over the place. No warning lights on dash whatsoever. Had this problem and took to ford about 2 years ago they said they fixed it but the problem still persists. I can see there are various recalls for this vehicle for the exact things that are happening to me. Huge safety concern. Seems to me it’s something to do with fuel tank and transmission.

Fuel pump system is causing the car to intermittently stall out in any gear (manual transmission). This symptom has caused my car to stall while driving in traffic leading to loss of acceleration control and total engine stall. I live in constant fear that i will be in another accident due to completely random engine stall. I feel my safety is at risk while continuing to drive this vehicle, and will continue to look for a different safer vehicle. All other ford engines put in this year and model have this recall already in place.

My car stalls out when I refuel. I've taken my car to a mechanic who has documented that my check engine was on due to low fuel pressure. They also say that there is a fuel tank deformation being caused because of this issue

Car stalls when brakes are pressed it locks and 15 minutes later car starts again. It has happened 3 times

wheels such as automatic and manual transmissions, transfer cases, fluid cooling/management systems and related hoses and pipes, electronic control units and software, shift lever/gear control and indicator devices, clutches and torque convertors, drive axles, hubs, i have my service system report from the diagnostic. I've called the manufacturer they said they could not do anything.i have to go get my police report again i lost it mam ive gotnmy other paper work until then thank you i have been having problems with these people please help me god bless

When filling the vehicle with gas the vehicle shakes uncontrollably and shuts off for about 5 minutes due to the cylenoid in the fuel tank. This year make and model has an open recall for this however my vin is not listed under the recall .

Car died and would not accelerate after slowing down to turn; no warning or dashboard lights on before incident; no overheating; started back up afterwards but stalled before engine turn over. Happened 3 times within 30 minutes

my car has bad performance, when I put gasoline it does not want to start and many times it does not detect the real level of gasoline and ramdomly the check engine light turn on on my dashboard after a mechanic check it OBD detect P144-A. I changed the valve twice and after I took the car to the dealer but as the engine light turns on and off randomly they did not detect the problem since when I took it the light was off. They told me that the car is fine but I still have the same problem.

Certain engine types of the Ford Focus had a recall campaign to replace the stuck canister purge valve. However, the 1.0 Ecoboost 3-cylinder engine was not included in that campaign. Our car is having the same exact issue and we don't understand why the campaign wasn't extended to the other engine types. This should have been an issue corrected by Ford. Please let me know if there is any way to have Ford correct this issue for this vehicle. Thank you, [XXX] INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

The Check Engine Light came on and did not go off. The Auto Parts store ran a scan and three (3) codes, all of which were the same displayed as P1450. The Error Code deals with the Canister Purge Valve (CPV) malfunction and causing excessive vaccuum in the fuel tank. My car cuts off and stalls when I fuel up. It is becoming harder to start at times. The stalling concerns me because I do not want to be in traffic and it stalls out. I see there has been a Recall on other Ford Focus vehicles, but unfortunately mine was not included. Please investigate so that I nor any other drive may be left unsafe and have to pay out of pocket during these difficult times, when a Recall can cover the issues for free.

Had recall from manufacturer for fuel tank issues. Was inspected and still have engine light on for codes P1450 (fuel tank vacuum bleed error. Was never repaired by dealer.

A stuck CPV is leading to excessive vacuum in the fuel vapor system, causing the plastic fuel tank to deform, resulting in an inaccurate or erratic fuel gauge indication, inaccurate distance to empty (DTE), and/or other drivability concerns. The vehicle also is exhibiting an illuminated malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) with diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) P0420, P1450, P0443, P0452, P0456, P0460 and/or P2196

Engine light on. Fuel Tank Deformed, defective canister purge valve. Ford doesn’t want to do the service for safety recall 18S32. Ford dealership did not inspected the parts associated for safety recall 18S32 in February 2019 and noted that our vehicle is not part of the recall. Engine light when on June 2021 related to safety recall 18S32 but Ford will not fix it.

Engine light on. Fuel tank deformation again after safety recall done in February 2019. 18S32. I do not know if the dealership really fixed it properly the first time, or that Ford made a very defective vehicle that should not have been released in the market. Ford doesn’t cover recurrence of the same safety recall.

My car idles up high often and the car will speed up on it's own. When at a complete stop it struggles to stay on. Sometimes it will cut off. It has shut off while driving as well. It jerks when taking off from a complete stop. After putting gas in the car it will not start immediately. I have to pump the gas pedal for a few seconds. It eventually starts. At Autozone I had a code test ran on it and it suggested EVAP system needed replacing. So, I took it to have it fixed. Precision Tune ran an additional test on my car, but there were no errors. They even checked for any recalls or repair issues posted online, but my car was not listed. They suggested I call the manufacturer. It still does it. I can also hear a scrubbing sound while backing up, but my brake pads are good. The brake light continues to pop on saying I need brake fluid. I had that checked and I do not need brake fluid. The engine light stays on. I get my car tuned on a regular basis. I've only had it for a soon to be year in June 2021. Also, there are times when the gas fumes are strong inside of the car while driving. I want to go on trips but i'm afraid it will shut off in the middle of the interstate.

I WAS DRIVING NORMALLY ON A MAIN STREET AND THEN THE CAR BEGAN TO VIOLENTLY JERK AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AS IF IT COULDN'T SHIFT INTO THE NEXT GEAR I PULLED OVER AND SHUT THE CAR OFF THEN RESTARTED IT WITH NO CHANGE I HAD IT TOWED TO FORD WHERE ITS CURRENTLY GETTING SERVICED WHICH THEY SAID MIGHT NOT BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH ONLINE IT SEEMS THAT THIS IS A COMMON OCCURRENCE I ALSO RECENTLY HAD TO HAVE MY PURGE VALVE REPLACE AS WELL THEY SAID THAT WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANT I BELIEVE A RECALL IS NECESSARY IN THIS SITUATION IT WAS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY AT HIGH SPEEDS OR THAT TO HAPPEN I HAD THE CAR DIAGNOSED PRIOR TO IT GOING TO FORD AND THE CODE WAS P090C WHICH SAID THE CLUTCH B ACTUATOR CONTROL CIRCUIT LOW AND MY MILAGE IS ABOUT 72,000

Mileage: 72,000

VEHICLE WAS DIAGNOSED BY MECHANIC TO HAVE MALFUNCTIONING CANISTER PURGE VALVE THAT IS STUCK IN AN OPEN POSITION, IDENTICAL TO CURRENT RECALL #18V735000 FOR CERTAIN 2012-2018 FORD FOCUS VEHICLES WITH A 2.0L GDI OR 2.0L GTDI ENGINE. MY VEHICLE STALLS AFTER I REFUEL FOR ABOUT A MINUTE; I HAVE TO REPEATEDLY START AND STOP MY ENGINE UNTIL IT STAYS ON, AND THE ENGINE RUMBLES EXCESSIVELY FOR A COUPLE MINUTES AFTER BEING ABLE TO DRIVE AFTER REFUELING. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON FOR CODE #P0441.

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND MY CAR STALLED WITHOUT WARNING WHILE DRIVING BETWEEN 35-40 MPH. TOOK THE CAR TO SAYVILLE GIANT FORD ON 1/6/21 FOR REPAIR UNDER RECALL #18532. I WAS TOLD THE CAR PASSED INSPECTION AND THE REPAIR WAS NOT MADE. TOOK THE CAR TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND INFORMED THAT IT IS A VALVE CAUSING A VAPOR ISSUE IN THE FUEL SYSTEM.

Mileage: 66,925

BACK IN MARCH 2020 I BEGIN TO HAVE TRANSMISSION ISSUES SO I TOOK MY CAR TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP AND WITH THAT BEING SAID THE MECHANIC PROCEEDED TO TELL ME THAT THEY HAD TO REBUILD A CLUTCH IN MY TRANSMISSION AND THAT THE COST OF THE FIX WAS GOING TO BE $2600 I BEGAN TO TELL THE MECHANIC THAT I DID NOT HAVE THAT TYPE OF MONEY AND THAT I WILL COME GET MY VEHICLE THE NEXT DAY BECAUSE I WAS AT WORK SO THE NEXT DAY WHILE I WAS AT WORK I GET A PHONE CALL FROM THE MECHANIC AT THAT FORD DEALERSHIP AND HE TELLS ME THAT MY CAR IS READY TO BE PICKED UP AND THAT THE ISSUE WAS FIXED I BEGAN TO REPEAT MYSELF TO THE MECHANIC THAT I DID NOT WANT TO PROCEED WITH THE SIX OF MY VEHICLE BECAUSE I DID NOT HAVE THE MONEY I ALSO STRESS THIS AT THE FORD DEALERSHIP WHERE I HAD TO LEAVE MY CAR FOR THREE WEEKS AT THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE I DID NOT HAVE THE MONEY AND HAD TO STRUGGLE TO FIND THE MONEY TO GET MY VEHICLE BACK BECAUSE THE FIX WAS ALREADY DONE AND AFTER I CAME UP WITH THE MONEY TO DAYS LATER I STARTED HAVING TRANSMISSION FAULT ISSUES WITH MY VEHICLE SO IS THERE ANYWAY FOR IT CAN REIMBURSE ME BACK MY MONEY OR FIX MY CAR FREE OF CHARGE BECAUSE I WAS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE

Mileage: 120,000

THE CAR WOULDN'T SHIFT GEARS NO REVERSE AND WHEN IT FINALLY DID GO INTO DRIVE ONLY 11 MPH

I TOOK MY CAR INTO THE FORD DEALERSHIP FOR A SAFETY RECALL INVOLVING A STUCK CANUSTER PURGE VALVE IN THE FUEL TANK. AT THE TIME, (MARCH 2020) THEY USED ONE OF THEIR DEVICES TO DETECT PRESSURE AND NO CODES CAME UP WITH A DETECTION SO THEY DID NOT FIX THE VALVE AND CLOSED MY RECALL. IT IS NOW ONLY 9 MONTHS LATER AND THE SAME VALVE THAT WAS RECALLED IS FAULTY AND HAS CRUSHED MY FUEL TANK AND DEFORMED MY PUMP. THEY HOWEVER, ARE REFUSING TO REOPEN THE RECALL AND FIX THE ISSUE EVEN THOUGH IT IS A VERY SEVERE SAFETY HAZARD. MY FUEL TANK COULD COMBUST AT ANY TIME BECAUSE IT ISNT ABLE TO RELEASE PRESSURE PROPERLY AND THIS ALL DUE TO THEIR FAULTY VALVE INVOLVED IN RECALL #: 18V735000 IS THERE ANYTHING YOU GUYS CAN DO ON YOUR WND TO HELP ME FIGHT THIS?

Mileage: 49,000

FOR OVER A YEAR OR SO I HAVE BEEN HAVING TROUBLE WITH MY CAR SHUTTING OFF WHEN I'M LOW ON GAS. IT HAS STOPPED ON ME IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC, STRANDED ME ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND REFUSED TO START AT SERVICE STATIONS WHEN I'VE STOPPED TO GET GAS. I TOOK MY CAR TO JOE MYERS FORD IN AUGUST OR SEPTEMBER, 2019 BUT I COULDN'T LEAVE IT WHEN I PULLED AWAY FROM THE DEALERSHIP IT STOPPED ON THE FEEDER STREET OF THE FRWY. AND WOULD NOT START. I WAS STRANDED THERE FOR OVER 2 HOURS BEFORE THE CAR STARTED AGAIN AND I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE HOME. A FEW DAYS LATER I HAD IT TOWED TO JOE MYERS FORD. THEY COULDN'T GET TO IT FOR A MONTH OR LONGER SO I HAD TO GET IT TOWED BACK TO MY HOME. LATER IT WAS TOWED FROM MY HOME TO STERLING MCCALL FORD. I GOT THE CAR BACK AND IT STILL WOULD SHUT OFF WHEN I STOPPED OR SLOWED DOWN IN TRAFFIC ON A CITY STREET. IT WOULD JUST SHUT OFF. WHILE I'M DRIVING IT STARTS TO SPUTTER THEN CUT OFF BUT IT WON'T START FOR AWHILE AFTER THAT. THIS IS FRUSTRATING BECAUSE IT IS STILL HAPPENING OFF AND ON NOW FOR OVER A YEAR. I HAVE A 2 YEAR CHILD AND I AM REALLY AFRAID FOR OUR LIVES. I HAVE NO IDEA WHEN IT'S GOING TO JUST SHUT OFF OR NOT START AND IT IS REALLY DANGEROUS FOR ME AND MY CHILD. WHEN WE BOUGHT THIS CAR IT WAS NEW WITH 17 MILES ON IT IN FEBRUARY, 2017 BUT I AM SO AFRAID OF DRIVING IT. STERLING MCCALL CHECKED THE CAR OUT FOR ME AND TOLD ME THAT THEY FOUND NOTHING WRONG BUT IT STILL CUTS OFF. PLEASE HELP ME.

THE VEHICLE WAS UNDER HALF A TANK PF FUEL AND BEGAM TO SPUTTER AND JOLT AMD DIES. IT STARTED BUT CRANKED LONG AND HARD. THIS HAPPENS WHENEVER THE FUEL IS AT HALF OR BELOW. I SEARCHED MY VIN IT SAYS THE FUEL RSCALL ISN'T A ISSUE BIT ITS DOING EXACTLY THAT.

MANUFACTURER RECALL #18S32 NHTSA RECALL #18V735 I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK. I WAS PROBABLY ABOUT A MILE AND HALF AWAY FROM MY WORK. I WAS APPROACHING A RED LIGHT AND BEGAN TO SLOW DOWN AND PREPARE TO STOP. ALL OF A SUDDEN, THE DISPLAY SHOWS "NOT IN DRIVE" WHEN IT OBVIOUSLY WAS OR I WOULDN'T BE MOVING... NEXT THING, LIGHTS/ELECTRONICS WERE FLICKERING AND CAR JUST TURNED OFF IN DRIVE. WHAT WAS REALLY SCARY AND ALMOST COSTED ME MY LIFE WAS MY HAZARDS WERE NOT DISPLAYING TO SURROUNDING DRIVERS THERE WERE A FEW TIMES WHEN I GOT YELLED OR HONKED AT BUT 1 OR 2 TIMES I ALMOST GOT RAN OVER.... AFTER MY FRIEND CAME TO HELP ME PUSH IT OUT OF ROAD, HE GOT IT IN PARK, RESTARTED AND GOT CAR STARTING AGAIN.... WE TOOK THE CAR TO OUR FAMILY MECHANIC AND HE TOOK A LOOK AT IT. HE WAS GOING TO CHARGE ME A LOT FOR THE PART NEEDED TO GET FIXED. WHICH BROUGHT ME TO GO SEE IF I CAN FIND A PART FOR CHEAPER OR A MECHANIC FOR CHEAPER. THAT'S WHEN I DISCOVERED ABOUT THIS VIN AND CAR RECALL.

Mileage: 50,000

MY CAR CONTINUALLY SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING, FORD ACKNOWLEDGES THE RECALL BUT REFUSES TO PROVIDE ANY ASSISTANCE CLAIMING THE PART ISN'T READY. THE CAR WILL TURN OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF A HIGHWAY, OR AT A LIGHT WITH NO WARNING. FORD IS TELLING US THAT THEY CAN'T HELP US BUT IT ISN'T SAFE TO DRIVE OUR CAR AND NOBODY HAS HELPED US. THIS STARTED IN AUGUST AND CONTINUES TO NEARLY DAILY

Mileage: 35,000

CAR WILL NOT START AFTER FUELING. CAR SHAKES AND SHUTTERS AND TAKES MULTIPLE CRANKING ATTEMPTS TO START CAR. THIS ONLY HAPPENS AFTER FUELING. IT ALSO DOES NOT MATTER WHETHER THE TANK IS ALMOST EMPTY, HALF-WAY FULL, OR 3/4 FULL. THE SAME THING OCCURS EVERYTIME. THIS STARTED HAPPENING AFTER THE DEALERSHIP UPDATED MY SOFTWARE PER THE RECALL. CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY WANTED TO CHARGE ME $100 JUST TO DIAGNOSE A PROBLEM THAT STARTED AFTER THEY UPDATED MY SOFTWARE.

I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO FORD FOR A RECALL ON THE CANISTER PURGE VALVE IN THE FUEL SYSTEM. THEY PREVIOUSLY FIXED IT ON APRIL 16, 2019. MY FUEL TANK IMPLODED AND MY CAR WAS STALLING OUT AND EVENTUALLY WOULD NOT START. NOW IT'S OUT AGAIN AND MY CAR IS STALLING OUT WHILE DRIVING, HAVING ISSUES WITH STARTING AND MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON. THIS HAS ALL HAPPENED ON BOTH CITY STREET AT LIGHTS AND HIGHWAYS. MAINLY WHEN I AM STOPPED AT A STOP LIGHT IT WILL REV UP BY ITSELF AND THEN STALL OUT WHEN I START ACCELERATING. I'VE ALMOST BEEN REAR-ENDED DUE TO THIS ISSUE. I WAS TOLD THERE WAS NO SUCH RECALL ON MY VEHICLE FOR THIS MATTER AND WHEN I TRIED TO SHOW THEM THE DOCUMENT I HAVE FOR THE RECALL THEY STILL DEEMED IT INCORRECT. THEY REFUSED TO FIX MY CAR BECAUSE OF IT PREVIOUSLY BEING FIXED AND SENT ME ON MY WAY. I HAVE HAD MANY ISSUES WITH THE CAR RESULTING IN IT BREAKING DOWN MULTIPLE TIMES DUE TO RECALLS. THE TRANSMISSION ITSELF HAS BEEN REPLACED TWICE AND THE CPV ONCE AND NOW IT NEEDS REPLACED AGAIN. I CALLED FORD CORPORATE AND THEY WOULD NOT DO ANYTHING FOR ME, ONLY KEPT REPEATING THAT IT'S A ONE TIME FIX. FORD SIMPLY PUT A BAND-AID ON THE ISSUE RATHER THAN SOLVING THE ISSUE.

IT IS HARD TO START AFTER REFUELING. STARTER KEEPS TRYING BUT UNLESS YOU PRESS THE GAS PEDAL, IT WILL NOT STARTS. THEN IT SPUTTERS WHEN IT STARTS. IT HAS ALSO SPUTTER A COUPLE OF TIMES WHEN RUNNING (BUT IT NEVER STALLED)

I BOUGHT A USED 2016 FORD FOCUS 4DR SE AT AUTOCITY EL CAJON ON MAY 21, 2018 WITH ODO: 45,141 AND WAS UNDER THE MANUFACTURER'S WARRANTY UPON PURCHASE FOR THE PRICE OF $15,164.23. OCTOBER 29, 2018- I RECEIVED A MASS EMAIL REMINDER FROM AUTO CITY TO CHECK IF THERE ARE ANY KNOWN RECALLS UNDER MY CAR. DECEMBER 2018- I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FROM FORD VIA SNAIL MAIL AND CALLED A FORD DEALER TO SUBMIT A TICKET. I WAS TOLD THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE TO FIX THE RECALL AND WILL BE NOTIFIED ONCE AVAILABLE. NO RESPONSE BACK REGARDING THE ISSUE TILL THIS DAY. SAFETY RECALL NOTICE 18S32/ NHTSA RECALL 18V-735 *I WAS ADVISED AND COMPLIED WITH ALWAYS LEAVING MY FUEL LEVEL TO 1/2 TANK OF GAS UNTIL THE RECALL GETS RESOLVED. AUGUST 2019- RECEIVED RECALL NOTICE VIA SNAIL MAIL. SAME ISSUE. SAME PROCEDURES: CALLED FORD DEALER, LEFT A TICKET/REQUEST, NO RESOLUTION. AUGUST 10, 2019-WENT TO GET OIL CHANGE AND ALIGNMENT. STARTED TO NOTICE JERKING WHILE DRIVING, ACCELERATION ISSUE, CAR START TROUBLES AND ENGINE LIGHT TURNING ON/OFF. DECEMBER 2019-GOT AN INITIAL CHECK FROM NORTH PARK AUTO REPAIR DUE TO ENGINE LIGHT ON. DTC DESCRIPTION: P219A- AIR/FUEL RATIO IMBALANCE -I WAS REFERRED TO AUTOCITY TO GET IT FIX UNDER WARRANTY DECEMBER 9, 2019- I REACHED OUT TO AUTOCITY VIA EMAIL AND TELLING THEM MY CONCERNS ABOUT THE ENGINE LIGHT AND THAT I HAVE NOT BEEN USING MY CAR FOR 2 WEEKS. DECEMBER 19, 2019- I GOT AN APPOINTMENT WITH AUTOCITY AND GOT A RESOLUTION UNDER THEIR WARRANTY: PORTFOLIO SERVICE WARRANTY WHICH LEFT ME TO PAY $100 COPAY. RECEIPT SHOWS THE FAULT CODE: P1294 THE ENGINE LIGHT ISSUE WAS FIXED , HOWEVER, I AM STILL EXPERIENCING JERKING, ACCELERATION LAG AND TROUBLE STARTING WHILE USING THE CAR TILL THIS DAY.

CAR ENGINE COMPLETELY STALLED WHILE STATIONARY ON A STREET AT A RED LIGHT, THE ENGINE WOULD CRANK AND THE CAR SHOOK AGGRESSIVELY BUT WOULD NOT START. I WAS STRANDED A BUSY ROAD UNTIL SOMEONE COULD PUSH MY VEHICLE OUT OF THE WAY OF TRAFFIC WHILE IN NEUTRAL. EVENTUALLY AFTER SEVERAL TRIES AND CALLED TOW, THE CAR DID START UP AFTER ABOUT 20 MINUTES OF STALLED TIME. WHEN CAR STARTED, OIL AND ENGINE LIGHTS WERE LIT UP ON DASH. THE FUEL LEVEL WAS AT 88 MILES TO EMPTY. WHEN CAR WAS BROUGHT TO DEALERSHIP, DEALER EVALUATED THE VEHICLE AND DIAGNOSED THAT THE FREEZE FRAME DATA SHOWED NO FUEL PRESSURE AT START. THEY SUSPECTED FUEL PUMP FAILURE, THERE WAS TANK DEFORMATION AND THE STRAP RETAINER POPPED OFF SHOWING TANK FLEX. FUEL TANK WAS REPLACED, AND FUEL PUMP AND ALL RELATED HARDWARE, EVAP CANISTER, EVAP PURGE VALVE. INVOICE EXPENSES TOTALED TO $1070.67. CALLED FORD DIRECTLY TO FILE COMPLAINT REGARDING SAFETY RECALL 18S32 AND WAS TOLD BECAUSE THE VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED IN 2019 FOR THESE SYMPTOMS THAT IT WAS NOT COVERED UNDER RECALL 18S32. RECALL STATES: "THE ENGINE MAY STALL DUE TO A STUCK CANISTER PURGE VALVE (CPV) WITHIN THE FUEL VAPOR SYSTEM. A STUCK CPV CAN LEAD TO EXCESSIVE VACUUM IN THE FUEL VAPOR SYSTEM, CAUSING THE PLASTIC FUEL TANK TO DEFORM, RESULTING IN AN INACCURATE OR ERRATIC FUEL GAUGE INDICATION, INACCURATE DISTANCE TO EMPTY (DTE), AND/OR OTHER DRIVABILITY CONCERNS. THE VEHICLE MAY ALSO EXHIBIT AN ILLUMINATED MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LAMP.

DURING EARLY LOCKDOWN FOR PANDEMIC I ALLOWED A LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP TO VALET SERVICE MY CAR FOR OIL CHANGE, INSPECTION, ETC AS WELL AS A FUEL TANK RECALL 18S32. CAR WAS SHOWING NO RECALL SYMPTOMS BEFORE THE SERVICE BUT WAS RETURNED TO ME IN VERY POOR CONDITION. ENGINE SEEMS TO VAPOR LOCK AT THE MOST INOPPORTUNE TIMES WITH NO POWER TO ACCELERATE INTO TRAFFIC AND WANTS TO STALL OUT, THEN IT CATCHES ITS BREATHE AND WANTS TO TAKE OFF OUT FROM UNDER ME. I'M A 62 YR OLD WOMAN WHO TRUSTED A LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND NOW I HAVE A CAR THAT IS EXTREMELY UNSAFE TO DRIVE. THE SERVICE WRITER COULD CARE LESS AND WANTS TO CLAIM THAT I NOW NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION. JUST DID A SHODDY JOB AND WANT MORE MONEY FROM ME. I'M SO DISAPPOINTED.

MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND I TOOK IT TO A LOCAL MECHANIC. THE CODES WERE P1450 AND PO456 WHICH ARE ASSOCIATED WITH THE SAFETY RECALL OF THE CANISTER PURGE VALVE. THE FUEL TANK IS ALSO DEFORMED. MY CARS VIN IS NOT ASSOCIATED WITH THE RECALL SO THEY WILL NOT COVER IT AND I AM EXPECTED TO COVER IT. MY CAR ALSO HAS VIBRATION AT IDLE AND HAS CLUTCH SHUDDER OVER 250 RPM. FORD FIXED MY TRANSMISSION MODULE IN 2018 WITH A PREVIOUS RECALL AFTER IT STALLED SEVERAL TIMES. NOW I AM HAVING ISSUES AGAIN. THE SERVICE ADVISOR SAID THEY UPDATED THE TRANSMISSION MODULE IN 2018 BUT THE CUSTOMER CARE AGENT TRIED TO TELL ME THEY REPLACED THE PARTS ENTIRELY IN 2018 AND NOT JUST UPDATED. I NOTIFIED HER OF THE SERVICE ADVISORS STATEMENT AND THEN SHE WENT BACK TO SAYING MY VIN WASN'T PART OF AN OPEN RECALL. MY VEHICLE IS AT 74,563 MILES AND HAS ALREADY HAD SEVERAL MAJOR ISSUES REGARDING TRANSMISSION AND CANISTER PURGE VALVE.

I JUST RECENTLY BOUGHT A CAR AND IT HAS BEEN STALLING WHILE DRIVING AND HAVING DIFFICULTY STARTING/REVVING ITSELF UP AFTER I FILL THE GAS TANK. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO A SHOP TO GET A DIAGNOSIS AND THEY SAID THAT IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN THE RECALL FOR THE GAS TANK. WELL, I LOOKED UP TO SEE IF MY CAR HAD ALREADY GOTTEN FIX FOR THE RECALL AND IT SAID THAT IT DID. SO IT MIGHT HAVE HAPPENED AGAIN, AND I'M NOT QUITE SURE WHAT TO DO. IT HAPPENS EVERY SO OFTEN. AS THE ENGINE LIGHT ALSO COMES ON AND OFF. WHEN THE LIGHT IS OFF, THE CAR IS PERFECTLY FINE, BUT WHEN IT'S ON, IT TRIES TO STALL. *TR

THE PURGE CANISTER VALVE HAD A SAFETY RECALL LAST YEAR, WHICH THE DEALERSHIP STATED THEY PERFORMED AND MARKED THE RECALL AS COMPLETED. HOWEVER, THE PART WAS NEVER REPLACED, AND IS IN FACT DEFECTIVE. WHEN FILLING THE CAR WITH GAS, IT DOES NOT WANT TO START AND STALLS OUT MULTIPLE TIMES. WHEN IT DOES START, IT RUNS ROUGH FOR ABOUT TEN MINUTES. THE DEALERSHIP IS REFUSING TO FIX THE ISSUE WITHOUT CHARGING ME, DESPITE THE FACT THEY NEVER REPLACED THE PART. THEY ALSO REFUSE TO REPAIR THE TRANSMISSION SHUDDER THAT IS A KNOWN ISSUE BECAUSE IT'S NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY, EVEN THOUGH THEY SAID THAT FORD WAS COVERING THAT ISSUE UP TO 100,000 MILES.

THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMING ON AFTER THE POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE HAD BEEN REPROGRAMMED IS A DIRECT INDICATION FUEL TANK IS DAMAGED -FORD RECALL 19S22, WITH A FUEL TANK DEFORMITY WHICH NEEDS TO BE REPLACED TO CORRECT THE SAFETY ISSUE. FORD DEALERSHIP POWER FORD IN ALBUQUERQUE,NM REFUSED TO DO THE CPV REPLACEMENT, CARBON CANISTER REPLACEMENT, FUEL DELIVERY MODULE AND FUEL TANK REPLACEMENT AS RECALL 19S22 CLEARLY STATES IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF FORD MOTOR COMPANY TO DUE BECAUSE OF SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERNS.MULTIPLE ONLINE CONSUMER REPORTS STATE THIS THAT IF IT IS SERVICED FOR THE RECALL AND THEN CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON IT IS A DIRECT INDICATION IT NEEDS TO BE FIXED BY FORD MOTOR COMPANY BECAUSE OF FAULTY MANUFACTURING- WHICH DAMAGES THE GAS TANK(FUEL TANK DEFORMITY. IT IS THEIR OBLIGATION TO FIX THE VEHICLE BEFORE AN ACCIDENT DOES HAPPEN.

THESE PROBLEMS HAVE BEEN ONGOING SINCE I INITIALLY PURCHASED THE VEHICLE.

THE VEHICLE STALLED DURING A LEFT TURN INTO THE RIGHT LANE OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC AND WAS HIT AS A RESULT. THE VEHICLE WAS DECLARED A TOTAL LOSS. THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN TAKEN TO FORD PREVIOUSLY DUE TO CONCERNS OF STALLING/SLUGGISH ACCELERATION AT WHICH TIME THE DEALER DISCLOSED AN ISSUE WAS KNOWN THAT WAS MOST LIKELY THE CAUSE. THE DEALERSHIP KEPT THE CAR AND PERFORMED REPAIRS. THE ACCELERATION SEEMED A LITTLE BETTER BUT STILL NOT RIGHT BASED ON DECADES OF DRIVING EXPERIENCE. I THINK THE CPV ISSUE (18S32/18V-735) MAY HAVE CAUSED THE CAR TO STALL AND BE HIT WHEN IT WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN HIT OTHERWISE.

THE UPDATE WAS DONE ON THE PCM DUE TO VEHICLE NOT STARTING AND FUEL GAGE SAYING EMPTY WHEN I KNEW IT HAD MORE THAN HALF TANK. NOW IT IS DOING THE SAME THING ONLY WORSE. IT WORRIES ME THAT THIS HAS CAUSE MY IGNITION TO GO BAD AS WELL DUE TO THIS RECALL.

I HAVE A 2016 FORD FOCUS AND HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS WITH IT SINCE DAY ONE I'VE HAD THE CAR AT DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES FOR THE WIPERS FIRST THEY SAID CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG NEXT THEY SAID THEY ADJUSTED THE WIPERS THEN THEY SAID THEY CHANGED THE MOTOR . IT STILL STOPS IN MY VIEW WHENEVER IT RAINS I TOLD THEM IT'S STILL HAPPENING AND I WAS TOLD TO CHANGE THE WIPERS. I'M NO I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO WITH A NEW CAR. ONE MORNING I GET INTO THE CAR AND HAD FROST ON THE INSIDE OF MY WINDSHIELD I TURNED THE DEFROST ON AND WATCH MY WINDSHIELD CRACK BROUGHT TO FORD AND THEY SAID SOMETHING HIT IT LIKE A ROCK I EXPLAINED WHAT HAPPENED BUT WOULDN'T ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THERE WAS A DEFECT I TOLD THEM THAT IF THE WINDSHIELD HAD A SOLID SEAL I WOULD NOT GET FROST ON THE INSIDE THEY BRUSHED ME OFF. AND NOW MY CAR DOESN'T START RIGHT AWAY AND I CALLED CUSTOMER SERVICE AND ALL THEY SAID WAS NOTHING THEY CAN DO ABOUT IT. I'M SO FRUSTRATED WITH THIS CAR SINCE DAY ONE NO ONE AT FORD WILL HELP ME. THERE ARE OTHER PROBLEMS LIKE THE INTERIOR LIGHTS KEEP GOING OUT . I'M SO TIRED OF WASTING MY TIME BRINGING THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP BEING MADE TO FEEL LIKE AN IDIOT. FORD SAYS THEY PRIDE THEMSELVES ON CUSTOMER SERVICE BUT I YET TO SEE IT AS EVERY TIME THEY TREAT ME LIKE I'M MAKING THINGS UP. I WANT MY CAR IN SAFE DRIVING CONDITION. IS THAT TO MUCH TO ASK FOR!!!!IT SHOULDN'T BE BUT THAT'S HOW FOR MAKES ME FEEL..,I SHOWED VIDEOS OF WINDSHIELD WIPERS ALSO BUT I'M CRAZY

CAR STALLED ON A SUNDAY WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY. HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED AT MY OWN EXPENSE OVER 80 MILES TO MY HOME. THE NEXT DAY ATTEMPTED TO DRIVE IT TO DEALERSHIP WHEN IT STALLED AGAIN WHILE AT 40MPH. HAD SAMARITAN ASSISTANCE TO PUSH IT OUT OF THE ROAD AND HAD TO PUSH IT TO THE NEAREST LOT IN THE RAIN AS THE STREET HAD NO SHOULDER. THAT LOT HAPPENED TO HOUSE A REPAIR SHOP. REPAIR SHOP DETERMINED ISSUE WAS UNDER WARRANTY AND CALLED FORD TO CONFIRM HOWEVER FORD DENIED. WHEN I CALLED AND SPOKE TO A DIFFERENT SERVICE REP WAS TOLD THE ISSUE IS ACTUALLY UNDER RECALL (BUT ALSO WARRANTY) BUT ONLY FORD CAN PROVIDE RECALL REMEDY WITHOUT INCURRING CHARGES SO I COULD BRING IT TO FORD TO HAVE IT COMPLETED. SO I TOWED THE FOCUS TO THE DEALERSHIP AT MY OWN EXPENSE. I WAS INFORMED DIAGNOSTICS WOULD BE PERFORMED IN APPROXIMATELY 2 WEEKS. WHEN I INQUIRED ABOUT A LOANER VEHICLE WAS GIVEN 1800 NUMBER TO FORD CARE. I CALLED 3 OTHER FORD DEALERSHIPS TO ASK THEIR WAITING PERIOD FOR DIAGNOSTICS AND FOUND ONE THAT STATED BY THE END OF THE WEEK (TODAY IS TUESDAY). I ULTIMATELY HAD MY VEHICLE TOWED TO THAT LOCATION. ONCE OFF THE SHUTTLE AND BACK HOME, I CONTACTED FORD CARE AND WAS REFERRED BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP REGARDING A LOANER VEHICLE AND EVEN REIMBURSEMENT FOR THE TOW CHARGES I INCURRED. I AM WITHOUT A VEHICLE UNTIL REPAIRS CAN BE COMPLETED WITH 3 TOW CHARGES ON MY BANK ACCOUNT.

THE TRANSMISSION OF THIS VEHICLE HAS HAD A CONSISTENT PROBLEM OF BEING ERRATIC AND REQUIRES CONSTANT VERY PARTICULAR PRESSURE ON THE GAS PEDAL TO AVOID SHUDDERING AND SHAKING WHEN ACCELERATING WHICH WHEN IT HAPPENS MAKES THE CAR VERY DIFFICULT TO SAFELY CONTROL IN ANY TYPE OF TRAFFIC SINCE OTHER DRIVERS DO NOT ANTICIPATE THE LURCHING AND STAGGERING FROM THE CAR UNLESS THEY HAPPEN TO NOTE THE FORD EMBLEM AND ARE AWARE OF THE SAFETY PROBLEMS FACING ALL FOCUS DRIVERS OF THE AFFECTED MODELS. I HAVE FOUND THE ISSUES MANAGEABLE BY ASSERTIVE MANIPULATION OF THE GAS PEDAL DURING ACCELERATION AND GENTLE AND GRADUAL APPLICATION OF THE BRAKES WHEN POSSIBLE TO OFFSET THE DANGEROUSLY INCONSISTENT ACCELERATION AND THE TENDENCY FOR CAR TO MISSHIFT WHEN SLOWING DOWN. I'M ABSOLUTELY APPALLED TO DISCOVER THAT THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED SITUATION BUT IS TYPICAL OF MOST IF NOT ALL 2012-2016 IT IS INCONCEIVABLE TO ME THAT FORD WAS AWARE OF THIS LIFE THREATENING MALFUNCTION IN THEIR PRODUCTS AND INSTEAD OF SOLVING OR ADDRESSING IT SOLD CARS TO UNSUSPECTING PUBLIC ON THE BASIS OF THE THEIR GOOD NAME AND REPUTATION AS A QUALITY AMERICAN MANUFACTURER. I ALSO HAD TO HAVE THE CAR SERVICED AT HERTICH FORD OF MILFORD DELAWARE FOR A SEPARATE ISSUE INVOLVING FUEL SYSTEM SENSORS WHICH CAUSED THE FUEL GAGE TO BE INACCURATE AND CAUSED MY VEHICLE TO STALL SEVERAL TIMES DUE TO A VACUUM CREATED IN THE GAS TANK, WHICH WAS FIXED BY THE RECALL WORK BUT AGAIN CAUSED A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS SITUATION FOR MYSELF AND PASSENGERS. APPARENTLY THERE IS ANOTHER RECALL FOR THE FUEL SYSTEM ERROR WHICH I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO SCHEDULE AS YET. TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN AND ANYONE READING THIS DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND BUY CHEVROLET OR TOYOTA TWO BRANDS I CAN HIGHLY RECOMMEND. THANKS
