NHTSA Complaint #10158126 — 2000 FORD FOCUS

MY FORD VIN [XXX] IS HAVING THE SYMPTOMS AS PER NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 03V482000 AND MEETS THE SPECIFICATIONS OF THIS RECALL, BUT FORD SAYS THAT MY CAR DOESN'T QUALIFY FOR RECALL 03N01 BECAUSE THEY SAY THE RECALL IS NOT MANDATORY AND IS NOT A SAFETY RECALL. I'M DRIVING A 2000 FORD FOCUS ZTS AND AFTER RUNNING THE TANK LOW ON FUEL, THE ENGINE IS NOW HESITATING AND HAS A LOSS OF POWER. I REPORTED TO THE SERVICE TECH THAT MY CAR WAS HAVING THESE PROBLEMS AND THE CIRCUMSTANCES THAT PRECEDED THE CHANGE IN THE CAR'S PERFORMANCE. THEY SAID THEIR COMPUTER'S DIAGNOSTIC OF THE SITUATION DIDN'T INDICATE A PROBLEM WITH THE FUEL DELIVERY MODULE. *JB UPDATED 07/16/2012 *JS INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
