Purge valve solenoid bad causing car to shut off while driving. check engine light came on. got code p144a
Evap fuel vapor canister purge valve assembly failed. dealer charging $314.00 and said ford does not cover this part under warranty. this is an emission component with many comments about known failure.
When fueling the tank vehicle will not stay running. engine starts and then dies. this goes on up to five minutes then engine stays running with no check engine light on. check codes there is p1450 stored. other times it happens after driving and turning engine off and then re starting a few minutes later, sometimes the engine stutters and dies after driving which can be in a parking lot or make to the highway stop at a stop lights which gets really scary when other traffic is around. i look up my vin for recalls it shows none. it starting happening a while back just once in a while accurrence, now everytime i fill up.
I try make this complaint twice now an gives a error this is serious my car is being stalled on highway due to purge valve an today the car is making a noise from the gas tank from what i'm told my car turned off because of this purge valve me an my kids could have been hurt i'm not the only one who thinks this should have been investigated along time ago people have made complaints online about the same issue i'm having !! i just replaced my fuel pump at delearship not long ago now this issue ! do have video of the car making this noise from gas tank an alsocar is releasing a strong fume smell
The steering wheel is getting stuck it feelslike which made me rin off road i also had to cut seat belt on back seat cause it wouldnt raise up. also fuel pump is going out and this is not right.
Check engine light, lots of white smoke out of tailpipe and dark black spark plugs at 15,000 miles! dealer said i got bad gas or vandalism therefore no warranty coverage. i had to pay a local mechanic to replace spark plugs, pump out and replace fuel. two weeks later i receive a ford letter stating coolant can leak into the cylinder bores causing exactly happened to my vehicle. now i have to seek reimbursement.
There where recalls awhile back. and one it had to do with the fuel system when i did the recall for it a year later i had the same issue took it to ford an they want me to pay over 500 for it when it was a recall the fuel light came on it says check fule inlet. it has disappeared now an the check engine light went away. there was a recall for the power steering. my steering wheel is locking it said that power steering locked. and they said that i cant do the recall. i have a 2011 ford fusion se. and the only recall they said was there was for the air bags. i want to know why i cant get these things fixed. i only have one car on a fixed income i own the car. an now i need answers
The car will pulsate and shake when driving, then the check engine light would come on. you can't accelerate, like there no accelerating in then the car cut off, which is danger. i have had this car for less then a year, i just payed close to 1,000 bucks getting it fix from having electrical problems that my warranty did not cover. i had to take to the shop for things that was or recalled., in now this. i think i was sell a lemon.
I was in reverse pulling out of a parking spot i was in the middle of a roadway when my car would not move anymore. the gear shift had detached from the transmission. i was lucky there was a tow truck mechanic who was able to reconnect it and move my car to safety. it has done this a couple more times since but it is now no longer driveable. in regards to the fuel the car makes a rumbling noise from the gas line, and makes the car fill with the smell of fuel. when i put the gas nozzle into the car a bubble sound and air pierces out.
