Description of the problem | I took my vehicle to ford for a recall on the canister purge valve in the fuel system. They previously fixed it on april 16, 2019. My fuel tank imploded and my car was stalling out and eventually would not start. Now it's out again and my car is stalling out while driving, having issues with starting and my check engine light is on. This has all happened on both city street at lights and highways. Mainly when i am stopped at a stop light it will rev up by itself and then stall out when i start accelerating. I've almost been rear-ended due to this issue. I was told there was no such recall on my vehicle for this matter and when i tried to show them the document i have for the recall they still deemed it incorrect. They refused to fix my car because of it previously being fixed and sent me on my way. I have had many issues with the car resulting in it breaking down multiple times due to recalls. The transmission itself has been replaced twice and the cpv once and now it needs replaced again. I called ford corporate and they would not do anything for me, only kept repeating that it's a one time fix. Ford simply put a band-aid on the issue rather than solving the issue. |
