Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	My 2014 ford focus was sold with a defective evaporation emission control (evap) system. Because of the defect, raw fuel can be sucked through the evap canister through the purge valve directly into the engine, causing the car to stall or hesitate while driving, which can be extremely dangerous to drivers and pedestrians. My car is a 2014 and has approx. 27k miles on it. I now will have to pay $1960 in repairs to replace the evap purge valve, the fuel tank, the fuel pump, and the fuel sending unit, which have all been damaged as a result of the valve failure. I have seen numerous identical complaints on carcomplaints. Com and the nhtsa government website, including complaints that people could have been seriously harmed, as they lost control of their vehicle on highway or major road. There was a lawsuit in 2017 (jon rivera, et. Al., v. Ford motor company) but ford won and the defect was not considered a recall. I believe ford should take responsibility for manufacturing a faulty part and putting consumers in danger that they may not realize. Ford should absorb the costs that are resulting from the failure of defective parts in relatively new cars.
