NHTSA Complaint #10158995 — 2000 FORD FOCUS

I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO THE LOCAL FORD DEALER ON MARCH 2, 2006 AFTER I WAS HAVING TROUBLE WITH IT STALLING AND THEN IT WAS HARD TO RESTART. THEY REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP AND FUEL FILTER. THEN ON MAY 19, I TOOK THE CAR IN AGAIN TO HAVE A RECALL ON THE LOCKS FIXED AND TO ASSESS THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT BEING ON. I WAS TOLD THAT THEIR WAS AN EVAP LEAK AT THE GAS CAP AND ONE WOULD BE ORDERED FOR ME. DURING THIS WAIT I EXPERIENCED A STRONG GAS SMELL SURROUNDING THE VEHICLE AND COMING UP THROUGH THE VENTS. THEN ON JUNE 4 (THE CAP STILL NOT REPLACED), I WAS GETTING POOR GAS MILEAGE. AS I WAS BACKING OUT OF A DRIVEWAY I NOTICED A STRING OF GAS. AS I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD I WAS LOSING GAS. I WENT FROM HALF A GALLON TO E IN LESS THAT 8 MIN. UNTIL I ARRIVED AT MY DESTINATION AND THE CAR DIED. I PUT IT IN NEUTRAL AND ROLLED TO SAFETY. THEN I HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO MY LOCAL FORD DEALER WHO IS CURRENTLY ASSESSING THE SITUATION....PLEASE HELP!!! PREVIOUS PROBLEMS INCLUDES, BUT IT IS NOT LIMITED TO THE FOLLOWING PROBLEMS (CUTS OUT, DIES, HESITATES{COIL PACK REPLACED}, THE KEY NOT FITTING INTO THE IGNITION {JAMMED THE KEY IN & WD40}. *NM
