Description of the problem	Bought this vehicle used in may 2017. The previous owner just had the fuel pump replaced which cost him $700. 00. Had it one week and it ran out of gas, which according to the gauges, i should have had plenty of gas. My son came and put gas in and he looked underneath and noticed that my gas tank was "dented in." i just assumed the previous owner had hit something and never gave it another thought. Well in the past few months the "miles to empty gauge" is not accurate and i ran out of gas again when it said i had 70 plus miles to empty and now the gas gauge is incorrect with fluctuations from a quarter to three quarters full. Im now at the point where i have to set my trip meter to gauge when i am close to empty. I only have 80,000 miles and am out of warranty. This should be something that ford fixes since it is obviously an ongoing problem. They issued a recall for the fusions for the exact same issue, but not the focus?? From what i have been told, ford only issues recalls if the government forces them too!! This fix on this car will cost me $3000. !!!!
