I started getting a check fuel inlet warning occasionally and then my check engine light came on so I took the vehicle in for service. I was informed that the canister purge valve was faulty and was in need of replacement at the cost of $341. As it were my 2010 ford fusion has the very same part being replace as part of a safety recall. I noted this to both my ford dealer and ford customer service but I am still responsible for the repair. My question is why it's a safety recall in one instance but an owners responsibility in another.

I have a f150 2011 3.5l eco boost motor that failed to accelerate after filling up with gas at a rest stop. I was near chicago on interstate 80/90 I tried to pull out using the acceleration ramp traffic was extremely heavy so needed to use the eco boost power when the engine started to shutter and the service engine light keep flashing on then off. I had my wife with me and we had to pull over to side of the road because the motor lost power. I could not get onto the road because of the traffic. There was a lot of semi-truck on the road that day and this almost ended up in a collision. I had been driving in the rain for about 1.5 hours before pulling into the service area. I call my local ford dealer they said they have been getting a lot of reports about this problem. I ask if ford has a recall about this problem they said ford has no recalls. I call ford customer service after that and they said they will open a case study about this problem, but as of now they cannot do anything about this problem. I even told them this was a high liability problem and what is it going to take someone to get killed before ford fixes the problem. I can't believe with all the people having the same problem I am having and this is a 2011 tuck they can't resolve the problem sense we are getting ready to go into 2014.

My ford e150, econo van came to a sudden stall when I was driving on high way. Once it got stalled, I l don't have steering, power and brake control. The van won't start and won't stay idle. Or running, but after like 20 times trying to restart the car, it started running again like normal. The sudden stalling happens more often when I was trying to make turns. Each time the engine stops, the check engine light, check tool light, and check gauge light came on. I took it to the dealer to have it serviced, they replaced the air flow sensors and cleaned the engine,...costs about $1,000.00 in less than a week, the van suddenly stalls again. I almost got into an accident with on coming car while I was making a left turn. Again, I have no steering control and braking power. I took the van back to the dealer, and they replaced the electronic throttle body. Total replacement of about $500.00 the problem is solved so far, but it was definitely a very scary experience for me. This happened when the car has less than 4 years old and less than 47,000 miles. It is very hard for me to over come the safety concern of the car each time I stepped into this van.

I experienced the same symptoms described in the camshaft position sensor recall which affects e-series vans. On 05nov07 my engine light came on and my engine began to hesitate, as if it would stall. I took the van to the ford dealer on 06nov07. They said they could not find anything wrong. They reset the codes and the engine light went off. On 09nov07 the engine light came on again and the engine began to run sluggishly. I did not drive the van over the weekend because I was afraid it would stall while I was driving. On 12nov07 the dealer replaced the dpfe sensor at a cost to me of $364.04. I contacted ford corporation on 06dec07 requesting reimbursement for the repair. My request was denied. Failure of dpfe sensor has the same results and the same safety implications as the failure of the camshaft position sensor. Ford should include this failure in the recall as well, or someone will be hurt eventually.

Driving down the highway I heard a popping sound, the truck stalled and the check engine light came on. The truck continued to stall. I called clark ford after hearing about a spark plug problem with ford trucks and they claimed to know nothing about it. I took my truck to my mechanic and the motor had to be replaced, this resulted in also a radiator split.
