Each time I fill the car with gas, even with the tank half full, the car stalls and has trouble starting. I have checked for clogged or cracked fuel lines and there are none. It puts out the code p1450. Replacement of the fuel tank pressure solenoid and it's still having the same problem. I have read that there may be a recall of some sort on the fuel system in these cars.

Head lamp service fault . You lose all power to the headlights and your key fob does not register. Meaning you can just hop in the car with no keys and drive. Also the car turns off while driving

I have a 2018 ford focus se that is less then a year old and it bogs down, acts like its going to stall out and doesn't get the gas mileage it's suppose too. It bogs down when I am driving it and when driving it will spit and sputter like it's going to stall out on me then snaps out of it. Ford keeps telling me that nothing is wrong with it.

I was driving normally and the engine shut down with no warning (lights on the instrument panel went off) then came back up. Not long after this, I came across an article that suggested a current recall could be to blame for this but my VIN is not included in this recall. It should be. (date of occurrence is approximate.)
