What 2,584 owners told NHTSA about the 2014 Ford Focus Bev

THE CAR HESITATES EVERY TIME YOU TRY TO ACCELERATE. IT DOES THIS WHEN YOU ARE STATIONARY AND FIRST STARTING OUT AND WHEN YOU ARE ALREADY IN MOTION. SOMETIMES IT'S SO PRONOUNCED THAT I'M AFRAID IT'S GOING TO STALL COMPLETELY. THIS HAS HAPPENED SINCE THE 1ST DAY I BOUGHT IT AND THE DEALER WHERE I BOUGHT IT SAID THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT THAT'S THE WAY IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE. SOMETHING ABOUT A DIFFERENT KIND OF TRANSMISSION.

TAKATA RECALL. I TOOK MY 2014 FORD FOCUS TO A FORD DEALERSHIP BECAUSE MY CAR GAS GAUGE WAS SHOWING ERRATIC MILEAGE AND BECAUSE I KNEW I HAD A RECALL. I RECEIVED MY VEHICLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM AS I TOOK IT IN. MY GAUGE STILL KEPT SHOWING ERRATIC MILEAGE.I WENT BACK 5 DAYS LATER TTO TELL THEM WHAT WAS GOING ON AND I ASKED WHAT PROCEDURE THEY HAD DONE. THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY HAD ONLY REPROGRAMMED A MODULE. I TOLD THEM IF THEY COULD CHECK IT OUT AGAIN AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY COULD BUT THEY WERE GOING TO CHARGE ME A DIAGNOSTIC FEE BECAUSE THEY HAD ALREADY PERFORMED THE RECALL. THE DIAGNOSTIC CAME OUT AND IT TURNED OUT THAT MY CAR NEEDS A NEW FUEL PUMP, CANISTER PURGE VALVE, AND FUEL TANK. I TOLD THEM THAT THOSE THINGS WERE SUPPOSED TO BE FIXED THE FIRST TIME I BROUGHT IT BECAUSE IT WAS PART OF THE RECALL. THEY TRANSFERRED ME TO FORD INTERNAL SOMETHING AND FORD SAID THAT THE RECALL WAS ALREADY PERFORMED AND THAT IT WAS MY RESPONSIBILITY NOW. I MEAN HOW DOES A COMPANY LIKE FORD CAN BE SO UNPROFESSIONAL ABOUT SOMEBTING LIKE THIS. I MEAN PART OF THE RECALL IS TO TAKE YOUR VEHICLE TO GET THOSE THINGS FIXED THAT THE FORD ASSEMBLY LINE FAILED TO ADDRESS WHEN MAKING THE MODEL. NOW I AM EVEN MORE SCARED BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW WHEN I WILL GET STRANDED SOMEWHERE BECAUSE I'M NOT SURE WHAT GAS MILEAGE IT HAS.

IN DECEMBER 2018 I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY GOING 70 MPH AND SUDDENLY MY CAR WOULD NO LONGER ACCELERATE. IT WOULD NOT START EITHER UNTIL HOURS LATER. TOOK IT BACK TO FORD AFTER TELLING THEM WHAT HAD HAPPENED AND THEY SAID IT WAS BECAUSE OF A FUEL PUMP RECALL. I GOT A LETTER LATER THAT MONTH AFTER MY CAR HAD BEEN TO FORD AND CHECKED OUT, SAYING THE PART WAS RECALLED IN OCTOBER. I WAS NOT NOTIFIED PRIOR AND IT IS VERY DANGEROUS TO STALL ON HIGHWAY. THEN A FEW WEEKS AGO I HAD THE SAME THING HAPPEN ON THE HIGHWAY AGAIN. WHENEVER MY FUEL IS KIND OF LOW THE CAR JUST STALLS AND I CAN'T START IT. I WAS ABLE TO GET GAS AND JUMP MY CAR AND GET IT HOME AND HAS BEEN FINE SINCE, BUT I WENT INTO FORD THE NEXT DAY AND TOLD THEM THAT THE SAME ISSUE HAPPENED AND THEY TOLD ME THAT BACK IN DECEMBER WHEN THEY 'FIXED' MY VEHICLE THEY ACTUALLY JUST LOOKED AT IT AND SAID IT WAS FINE, BUT TOLD ME THEY REPLACED/FIXED THE PART. SO THE PART WAS NEVER FIXED OR RESOLVED. NOT TO MENTION I HAVE ONLY HAVE THIS CAR SINCE SEPTEMBER 2017 AND HAVE HAD THE CLUTCH REPLACED 3 TIMES AND NOW AM FEELING THE SIGNS OF IT FAILING AGAIN FOR THE 4TH TIME. THIS CAR IS UNSAFE AND UNPREDICTABLE AND FORD HAS LIED TO ME AND NOT INFORMED ME OF THE DANGERS OF THE VEHICLE I'M PAYING THEM FOR.

I HAVE A 2014 FORD FOCUS. I HAD ISSUES WITH THE GAS TANK FILLING STARTING AT THE END OF 2018. I ALSO STALLED OUT ON THE HIGHWAY PRIOR TO THIS. I INFORMED THE DEALER OF THIS ISSUE PRIOR TO THE COMPLETION OF THE RECALL WHICH IS ASSOCIATED WITH THIS DEFECT (SAFETY RECALL NOTICE 18S32 /NHTSA RECALL 18V-735). THE DEALER COMPLETED THE SOFTWARE UPDATE RELATED TO THE RECALL. THE GAS TANK STILL EXHIBITED ISSUES FILLING (WHICH ONLY EMERGED AROUND THE STALLING ' THIS IS RELATED TO THE RECALL). THE NEXT DAY AFTER THE SOFTWARE UPDATE WAS COMPLETED, I RECEIVED A P1450 ERROR CODE RELATED TO AN EVAP CANNISTER ERROR. ACCORDING TO THE DEALER, THE REPAIR ASSOCIATED WITH THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED UNDER THE RECALL. HOWEVER, THE DEALER (WHO HAS BEEN EXTREMELY HELPFUL) STATED THAT FORD WAS UNWILLING TO PROVIDE REIMBURSEMENT TO THIS FOR THIS REPAIR. FORD, ON THEIR WEBSITE STATES, 'DEALERS WILL INSPECT AND REPLACE THE CANISTER PURGE VALVE, CARBON CANISTER, FUEL TANK AND FUEL DELIVERY MODULE, AS NECESSARY. THERE WILL BE NO CHARGE FOR THESE SERVICES.' FURTHER EFFORTS TO SPEAK TO FORD DIRECTLY ABOUT THIS HAVE BEEN UNSUCCESSFUL. THE DEALER STATED THAT THIS IS A TECHNICAL ISSUE WITH BILLING THAT FORD REFUSES TO ADDRESS. AS A RESULT, I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE EVAP CANNISTER AT MY OWN EXPENSE ($331.39). THE P1450 CODE CAME BACK ON AFTER THIS REPAIR. THEREFORE THE ISSUE IS STILL NOT RESOLVED. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT ANY FURTHER RECALL RELATED REPAIRS WILL BE AT MY EXPENSE BECAUSE FORD REFUSES TO PROVIDE APPROPRIATE REIMBURSEMENT. THE DEALER EXPRESSED THAT THEY WERE VERY FRUSTRATED WITH THE SITUATION.

FORD IS REFUSING TO PERFORM RECALL 18V-735. THE CAR STALLS, RUNS OUT OF GAS, HAS ERRONEOUS MILEAGE AND DTE READINGS. THE LOCAL DEALER WAS "OBLIGATED" TO PERFORM THE RECALL SERVICE WHEN I HAD IT IN FOR A DIFFERENT SAFETY RECALL FOR FAULTY DOOR LATCH. THEY DIDN'T SEEM TO KNOW MUCH ABOUT THE RECALL ON THE FUEL SYSTEM. THEY DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT THE GAS TANK. I HAD TO TELL THEM. THEY REPROGRAMMED THE PCM WHICH DID NOTHING. THE RECALL ON THIS CAR WAS CLOSED. I CALLED FORD. THEY SAID THE RECALL WAS STILL OPEN AND TAKE IT TO WHERE WE PURCHASED THE CAR NEW. THAT DEALER SAYS THE RECALL IS CLOSED ON THAT CAR. THE CAR STALLS, RAN OUT OF GAS YESTERDAY WITH MY WIFE ON A BUSY HIGHWAY. THIS IS A DANGEROUS CAR. CALLED FORD AGAIN. THEY SAY THE RECALL SERVICE WAS PERFORMED AND THE CAR IS FINE. LOOK AT THE PHOTO. DOES THAT LOOK LIKE IT IS FINE? 39.8 MPG? NOT A CHANCE. THE CAR LURCHES, STALLS AND RUNS OUT OF GAS BETWEEN 120 AND 60 MILES LEFT ON THE DTE GAUGE. WHEN YOU FILL UP YOU CAN TELL THEIR IS 3 GALLON AT LEAST IN THE TANK. THE GAS TANK IS COLLAPSED. THE SENDING UNIT / FUEL GAUGE IS CRUSHED. YET FORD SAYS THE CAR IS FINE. IT'S FIXED.

THE RECALL THAT HASN'T BEEN SATISFIED AS OF YET REGARDING THE CPV HAS CAUSED MAJOR ISSUES WITH MY CAR YET I CAN'T GET IT FIXED AS THE DEALER REPLIED SAYING IT WASN'T AVAILABLE YET WHEN THE RECALL WAS OCTOBER 2019.

I HAVE A RECALL FOR POSSIBLE DEFORMED FUEL TANK. IT IS MAKING MY CAR STALL AT ANY TIME TO INCLUDE USING CRUISE CONTROL OR STOPPED AT A LIGHT. THE ISSUE IS KNOWN BY MY LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP. THEIR ADVICE IS TO KEEP THE GAS TANK FILLED ABOVE HALF BUT I HAVE STALLED AFTER DRIVING 30 MILES AFTER FILLING UP. I HAD THEM INSPECT MY CAR AND THEY SAID EVERYTHING LOOKED FINE. I ASKED ABOUT THE STALLING AND THEY SAID WAIT FOR THE SOFTWARE. I GUESS THEY EXPECT THAT I WALK TO WORK UNTIL THEY FIX THE ISSUE. I HAD A LOCAL MECHANIC LOOK AT IT AND THEY RECOMMEND I WAIT FOR THE RECALL BECAUSE THEY ARE UNSURE IF THE PART WILL FIX THE PROBLEM WITHOUT THE SOFTWARE. I ALREADY HAD TO RENT A CAR FOR A FAMILY EMERGENCY AND DONT WANT TO GET STRANDED WHILE DRIVING TO WORK BECAUSE I AM FORCED TO DRIVE A FAULTY CAR WITH NO FIX. I CAN AFFORD TO BUY OR RENT A CAR UNTIL AN UNKNOWN DATE.

WAS TOLD BUY THE SALESPERSON THERE WAS NO RECALLS ON THE VEHICLE THAT THEY ARE REQUIRED BY LAW TO FIX THEM PRIOR TO SELLING IT. AND I WAS DRIVING HOME 11 DAYS AFTER GETTING THE CAR AND IT STALLED OUT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY IN THE LEFT LANE AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND I WAS ALMOST HIT BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. I SENT THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALER YOU TRIED TO GIVE IT BACK TO ME AGAIN TELLING ME THAT THEY DROVE IT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ISN'T ON ANYMORE AND WE LOOKED UP YOUR WEBSITE TO SEE IF THE CAR HAD AN ACTIVE RECALL WHICH IT DID. WE REFUSED TO TAKE THE CAR BACK UNLESS THEY FIXED THE RECALL. SO THEY SAID THEY WERE SENDING THE CAR TO EXCEL FORD IN CARTHAGE TEXAS. THAT THEY HAD CALLED THEM AND VERIFY THE RECALL IN WHICH WE FOUND OUT ABOUT THE RECALL FROM THE PAPERWORK FROM THE DEALERSHIP GIVING US THE WEBSITE. THE SERVICE TECH CALLED AND SAID HE CALLED FORD VERIFYING THE RECALL AND THAT THE PARTS FOR FIXING THE RECALL WE'RE ON BACKORDER AND COULD TAKE QUITE A WHILE. A DAY LATER ELLIOTT DODGE OF CARTHAGE CALLED US BACK WHERE WE BOUGHT THE CAR AND SAID THEY HAD THE CAR BACK THE RECALL WAS FIXED. ALONG WITH THE PIECE OF PAPER STATING IT WAS FIXED BUT NOT HOW. AND NOW A WEEK LATER IF THAT AND THE CAR STALLED OUT AGAIN CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON AND DID THE SAME THING IT DID BEFORE THE RECALL WAS ALLEGEDLY FIXED. ONCE AGAIN NEARLY CAUSING AN ACCIDENT WHEN THE CAR STALLED AND WILL NOT ACCELERATE. I WAS JUST DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND IT STALLS CHECK ENGINE LIGHT FLASHES THEN STAYS ON LOSING ALL POWER AND WILL NOT ACCELERATE.
