NHTSA Complaint #11042209 — 2011 FORD FUSION

ALL OF THIS IS WHILE THE CAR IS IN MOTION ON BOTH ON FREEWAYS AND CITY STREETS. FAILURE OF THE CANISTER PURGE VALVE SOLENOID; ENGINE LIGHT ON DUE TO BAD FILLER INLET NECK AND HAD TO REPLACED FILLER INLET; THE VEHICLE NEEDED THE FUEL FILLER TUBE REPLACED; EMISSIONS EVAPORATION SYSTEM ERROR CODES; "CHECK FUEL INLET" ERROR KEEPS COMING ON. I'VE HAD TO TAKE MY CAR IN FOR REPEATED CODE FAILURES RELATED TO THE FILL INLET. CANISTER HAD TO BE REPLACED TWICE. FIRESTONE NOTICED SEVERAL FORD FUSIONS WITH THESE SIMILAR PROBLEMS. SAFETY CONCERNS REGARDING DISTRACTION FROM ENGINE LIGHT (STOPPED ON FREEWAY BECAUSE I WAS AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR), AND CHECK FUEL INLET ERRORS WERE WORRISOME. I HAD TO CLEAN THE FILLER INLET WHICH DIDN'T RESOLVE THE ISSUES. I CAN'T REMEMBER ALL THE EXACT DATES OF WHEN I HAD TO TAKE THE CAR IN FOR SERVICE.
