1 Camshaft Position Sensor problem of the 2013 Ford Focus

Failure Date: 04/03/2020

While driving down the expressway at 70mph my vehicle loss power entirely and stalled. I was nearly hit by the vehicle behind me and forced to pull over to the side of the road. The check engine light came on at the same time and indicated a camshaft position sensor, crankshaft position sensor, and ignition errors. I've owned this vehicle from the day it arrived at the dealership. The problem at fault has been previously identified by Ford in a TSB for the engine wiring harness chaffing on the intake manifold. Owners are not notified through mail on TSB's and this vehicle has been serviced by the dealer since the TSB was issued. I believe this should be a recall condition due to the accident potential this problem creates.
