User had a quarter of a tank of gas before heading home. Shortly after, user started the car and it stalled. User did not think much of it. User shut it down and turned key to the "on" position and the check engine light turned on. The car turned over and worked. Shortly after, user was driving car down the road towards his house and the engine stalled. Systems and electronics screen were on, but everything else glitched and nothing really worked, the car torque steered the user into oncoming traffic lane. User had to use e-brake to properly slow down and pull to the shoulder of the road and turn key all the way off into the "off" position. User waited 5 minutes to ensure all systems were shut down, and started car back up again to safely drive the rest of the way home. User has extended warranty and will immediately have dealership look at vehicle.

There was a recall 18s32 campaign fuel tank deformation issued late 2018. The pcm system was not adequately detecting a stuck open canister purge value. On August 24th, 2019 I took my vehicle to get the recall repair due to stalling without notice and dangerous in drivability concerns. On August 25th, the following day, I had the very same exact symptoms. I took it to pepboys to diagnose, and the same codes were populating for the recall. Pepboys advised to take it back to a dealer. I then took it to another Ford dealership on October 22nd for a second opinion, and they stated that the canister purge valve was sticking. On October 24th, the vehicle was returned back to me and within a couple of hours same symptoms. On Nov 5th, 2019, I was advised the canister purge valve was replaced after the parts were on bo for 2-3 weeks. However, car started driving the very exact way followed by service engine light and transmission overheating warning. Additionally, the car did not accelerate when attempting to make a left turn and a diesel had to swiftly hit on their breaks to prevent crashing into me. The vehicle was returned back on the 8th of November, however, dealership stated they were unable to duplicate concern. On November 13, the vehicle was picked up and on November 14th I had to take it back due to the same issues. On November 30, I was advised that they notice a clutch slipping, vehicle rev high when trying to reverse or accelerate. However, vehicle operating as design. This is not the case. After 6 attempts in trying to rectify this issue, it is not. My safety is a concern here as the vehicle is not operating as design and currently remains as is.

Hello, I have a 2017 Ford Focus. I had took my car to a auto shop because I started to smell gas and my check engine light had came on. The auto shop told me that there is a leak some were and its going to cost me $430 just to drop the tank to see were the leak is coming from but then told me there was a new recall for the same year make and model for a fuel tank defect. So I took my car to the closest Ford dealer and they tell me that the recall not for this VIN #. I'm not sure if my VIN # was over looked because it's having the same issues as the other cars.

Now, I am having the issues with my fuel tank as noted in the recall, however, because the inspection passed, the recall was cancelled and Ford will not fix the issue has they noted it originally. I had no issues with the fuel tank until after it was inspected but now Ford refuses to fix the issue they know my car has.

2-9-2020 received nhsta tracking# 11308051 I have not heard back on the matter, Ford recall 18s32 car was "only re-programmed" 12/2018 parts were not available at that time, Ford never sent a letter stating parts were available the faulty purge valve was not replaced causing the car still to continue having issues 11/21/19 received email stating "if your vehicle was previously included in a recall for which you have received the remedy for but you are experiencing a failure with your vehicle that relates to the previous recall, you may file a complaint regarding your failure and referencing the recall. If you are interested in filing a complaint you may call our hotline at 1-888-327-4236 and a customer service representative will be happy to assist you" Ford has acknowledged they can not do anything "since the car shows it was repaired under the VIN#" (re-program only)the stuck purge valve and plastic gas tank which now has been deformed due to the stuck purge valve is the only and proper way to fix Fords defective engineering issue. Ford needs to step up and repair the car properly under warranty, not walk away with a so called fix by re-programming the car. Regards, rick root.

My car stalls out ever since I bought it. I looked online and it said don't let it go below half a tank and it won't. So that's what I've been doing. I brought it in to the dealership, but they were no help.
