In some of the affected vehicles, the pcm software may not adequately detect a stuck-open canister purge valve (cpv) within the fuel vapor system. Ford motor company wants to ensure the software is updated to the most current release available.

Absolutely ridiculous.Ĭheck engine light came on Saturday morning on my way to work, when checked it comes up as fault codes p0420, with secondary codes of p144a - evap emission system purge vapor line restricted/blocked, p1450 - unable to bleed up fuel tank vacuum, and p0131 - O2 circuit low voltage (bank 1, sensor 1), and started stalling after putting new gas in only, and now hesitates at lower gears and has a rougher then normal idle with the rps not staying steady, also when doing a VIN check on Fords website, or the NHTSA lookup it does not show up as a recall, however when I do a full VIN check it does show under the recalls page, I'm not sure if they marked it as completed for the VIN of this vehicle or not but its doing literally all the stuff stated in Ford safety recall 18s32 18v735000 or 19s22 19v515000, but when trying to chat Ford about it they deny there is one even though the NHTSA overview states: all of the affected vehicles previously had Ford safety recall 18s32 performed however, updated powertrain control module (pcm) software was not available at that time.

The recall letters clearly state repairs that are part of a recall are free of charge. I am in utter disbelief of everything I am being told. The excuse I have been given is the "codes" of the vehicle don't give the same information. I am being told neither of these things are covered since the car dealership and manufacturer suddenly don't consider these recalls. I was told of two things that were replaced on the vehicle: the canister purge valve (which I already stated is one of the recalls) and some random sensor, which they had no right to replace without my permission. Fast-forward a couple of weeks later and I'm being told that I now owe over $1,000 in labor fees! on top of that I am being told that I owe a $180 diagnostic fee. When I dropped my vehicle off at the dealership, I was assured that if the problems were any of the recalls, they would be free of charge. Symptoms I have with the vehicle are as follows: - difficulty with ignition, as I have to turn the key multiple times to start the vehicle also happens when putting in gas - constant jerking of the vehicle while driving, especially when starting from a stop - stalling of the vehicle, especially when driving uphill - engine light always on - incorrect gas reading fuel gauge goes up and down.
#2013 ford focus update#
The recalls include: - faulty transmission control module (tcm) - canister purge valve (cpv) being stuck open causing the plastic fuel tank to deform, causing incorrect gas tank readings - door latches not being secure - software update of the vehicle's computer. I recently dropped the vehicle off at my local car dealership the have those recalls worked on. First off, I have a 2013 Ford Focus with numerous recalls. I will try to follow the general guidelines as much as possible. This message is a complaint about my local car dealership and the car manufacturer of my vehicle.
