Description of the problem	Many people are aware of the transmission control module problem with the 2013 ford focus that has been recalled. However, i have had another problem with my ford focus that i researched and found that many more people are having the same or similar problem with their fuel tank collapsing and needing to replace most of the components in the entire fuel system. I had the purge valve replaced as an out of pocket expense as my extended warranty has expired, hoping this would fix the problem. I was informed by the mechanic that to fix my car completely, it would most likely need a new fuel tank, fuel pump, fuel filter, fuel line and of course the purge valve ( which i had replaced ). My car is only 5 years old and i do not know how or why i need to replace the entire fuel system. I have seen many posts describing the same situation on carcomplaints. Com and know of someone locally who i know personally who has the exact same problem with their 2013 ford focus. When driving, my engine will shut off completely. From time to time, my oil light will come on as my engine stalls out and tries to 'die' and i can press the gas to 'revive' the engine and keep it from shutting off. This repair of the fuel system was estimated to cost $2,000 to repair and i just don't have it. I listed my car online for $5,400 as is and have no one interested in it at that price after i've invested nearly $20,000 in this car in the 4 years i've been making payments, maintenance and repairs on it. I've also had the power steering replaced on this vehicle when i had around 80,000 miles on it. The power steering failed while in motion and almost caused an accident. This particular vehicle is a dangerous one. Buyer beware.
