When truck has a full or even half tank , always smell a loud gas smell coming from truck. gas smell so loud can not have truck parked in garage due to fumes. also with brakes, when forced to stop immediately the brakes make a weird sound and wont lock properly.
I have had issues with a check engine light that lights up all the time on the car. it will also say "check fuel fill inlet" when i pump gas. the code reads p0455 which means the engine computer recognizes a large leak in the evaporative emission control system (evap). the vehicle's evap system is sealed, it's main purpose is to prevent gasoline vapors in the fuel tank from escaping into the atmosphere. i am not sure if one of the recalls pertains to this, but this is an ongoing problem for me. so much so, that i have stopped driving the car in fear for my safety and my family.
Experience surging and stumbling under throttle up

I received a recall notice from ford dec 2016 referencing nhtsa safety recall 16v-777. aug 2017 i still hadn't heard anything so i asked ford what was going on using ford website live chat. ebonee said parts still not available. jan 2018 got another letter saying parts now available. called dealership then and again today 4/11/18 & they said still not available. very frustrated and concerned about what might happen due to possible fuel leak. we want this fixed but no one seems to be able to help.
I received a recall on my 2011 escape in late 2016 informing me about an issue with the fuel delivery module. i took it to the dealership at the time, informing them that i had been noticing fuel smells, but they were unable to remedy the issue, or perform the recall. in january of 2018 i received another letter saying that parts are now available to repair my vehicle, but as of april, two local dealerships still say they have not received the necessary parts for the repair. the safety recall is 16s41/nhtsa recall 16v-777. based on the safety implications of this recall, it seems that ford is being very slow in delivering parts to the dealerships to make this repair.

Nhtsa recall number16v777. ford dealerships in and around racine and milwaukee wisconsin do not carry parts to fix despite recall notice.
Made an appt for recall in santa clara ca (first available appt they had was march), arrived, they said they didn't have parts (no call to cancel appt, no call to follow up as requested) and didn't have any indication of when they would get more. called another location in sunnyvale, ca, same answer. nationwide shortage, no notice of when they would have more. told they would not call when they arrived, would have to keep calling back. told to call ford. my online ford owner account has recall date of oct 2016 but i just received a notice in jan 2018.1) why am i just being notified now if this has been active for the last year and a half? 2) unacceptable for ford to be out of parts with no delivery date in the middle of a recall.
