Description of the problem | I received a safety recall in dec. 18 for cpv valve and deformed gas tank. They said parts would be in by end of march 2019 as per letter from ford. I called ford today and they are apparently still working with their parts supplier and they have no date to correct this problem. This is a focus st and they say only fill up the gas tank halfway. Why have a recall if they don't fix the problem? Who is protecting the consumer? Is there an actual time limit to get this done? |
