Ford sent a recall letter in december 2016 reporting a possible crack in the fuel supply port that could result in a fire. Recall #16s41/the federal safety agency # 16v‑777. I contacted the ford dealership repeatedly over the last year and have been told there were no parts to fix the recall and they would notify when parts became available. Now nearly 1 1/2 years later, after multiple contacts, I'm told that ford still has not provided parts for the fix. Further, calls to the dealer and to ford result in promises but no action.

Contacted ford about owning this recalled vehicle over 14 months ago and several times since that date...an was told that a year later the part to repair was still unavailable. I feel that this type of negligence and the safety risk that it subjects me and my family to is seriously unacceptable. It shocks me that the federal safety agency has allowed this to continue for this length of time .I was under the impression that it was your responsibility to maintain safety for the consumer ...apparently that is not the case in this instance.

Called olathe ford dealership to repair recalled parts. I was informed 'cheap' parts were not available at this time, and I would be require the 'expensive' replacing option or wait until the 'cheap' part arrived. I opted to wait, and the ford deal has said it would be a few months,and they would call me it when they were ready. It has been 9 months, and the recall has not been repaired.
Vehicle is leaking gasoline from or near the fuel tank. The leak appears to be located near the fuel filler assembly. The leak produces strong odour of gasoline in cabin and around vehicle both when in motion and when stopped. A large wet stain under the tank was visible after the vehicle was parked on gravel for about five hours, with a strong odour of gasoline. (note on the attached photo of the fuel tank id badge, some information is cut off. On the left the second from the bottom line reads "shift 3". The bottom line reads "oct 26 2010 10:45pm")

(fdm) fuel delivery module recall, I have not been notified that my vehicle may have this issue, ford needs to step up to the plate and notify consumers asap, please assist in what action I may need to take on this.
This is regarding the federal safety agency recall number 16v777. It has been over a year since this defect was posted and I have not received any notification from ford to come in and have the fuel delivery module replaced.
I was driving down the highway cruising at 80mph when all of a sudden the gas pedal stopped working. The car was still running but even when I would put the gas pedal to the floor it would not give it any acceleration. A small wrench sign popped up on the dash and I pulled over to the side l. When the car was in idle the engine was very shaky and rpms were going up and down so I shut the engine off. I sat for roughly 5minutes and then tried to restart the vehicle it started no issues. Put the car in drive and the gas pedal was working again no issues so continued to dinner. On the way home took 95 but was going 55-65 taking caution in case the car stops working again. To no surprise it did so I pulled over sat for 2 minutes and restarted with no issues and finished driving home.
