Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problems of the 2015 Ford Mustang

2015 Ford Mustang ecoboost is suffering from a fuel tank leak. Cel turned on while driving on freeway. There are no signs of undercarriage damage, but the evap on top of tank has a hairline crack. This is a faulty part as there has already been a recall for this same issue (NHTSA campaign #: 15v339000), but not all 2015 Ford Mustang ecoboosts are covered from previous recall. This leak may cause a potential fire if not tended to.

I recently bought the car to a close friend and as he already states to me before to buy a car there is a check engine light active, I went to a shop to find out what is wrong and the code alarm is p0456, small evaporators leak. An smoke test was performed and found out the gas tank has a blue fitting on top of it that is leaking out all the vapors. After the surprising new on a 2015 car I went by myself to inspect the fitting and find out the hose connection is good but the fitting coming out the tank has a crack allowing vapors to come out the tank and producing the alarm p0456. The alarm can be reset and after some days come back again.

Tl- the contact owns a 2015 Ford Mustang. The contact stated that while operating the vehicle the check engine light would remain illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer team Ford/Lincoln (545 drexle rd, las vegas nv. ) who diagnosed that the fuel tank was faulty due to a evaporation leak and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and the contact was informed that the VIN was not included in the NHTSA recall campaign number 15v339000(fuel system). The failure mileage was 32,000. Jft.

Early in July 2015, I received from Ford motor corporate an "important safety recall" notice NHTSA recall 15v-339. When I got the notice which urges you to "call your dealer without delay"I called the dealership where I got my car, autonation Ford in torrance, California, the day after I got the notice. . I spoke to someone in the service department; they knew nothing about the recall; put me on hold; said they would have to call me back. To make a long story short, to date I have been getting the runaround from the dealership where I leased the car and the dealership recommended by Ford's customer relationship center I keep getting told the fuel tank shield isn't available whereas Ford customer service advises that it is available. . I have also called your NHTSA customer service number several times--again, put on hold, no call back although I left my number. No one to date has advised me when the parts would be available. I was contacted by a mark johnson yesterday from Ford customer service; , he could not give me a definitive answer re when the parts would be available although customer service had advised they were available. He also tried to defend the one dealership's position that it needed to see the car first to see if there was a fuel or vapor leak--excuse me but the whole point of the recall is so that the car won't develop a fuel or vapor leak!!! he said that at the same time that the safety recall notices are sent out, an email goes to all the dealerships advising them of recall and the parts needed: really? then why did neither of the dealerships I contacted know about the recall? the run-around I am getting is inexcusable: I live in a state with elevated temperatures and where friends can live long distances from each other: I want this defect fixed--now. Thank you for your attention to this matter. .
