2014 Ford Fusion Fuel System Problems

There is a problem with the purge valve on the ford fusion. Car will not start after pumping gas. You have to step on the gas pedal several times and then the car will turn on. After doing research there seems to be several people with the same problem. The purge valve on the canister is getting stuck letting the fumes come in making the system run with extra fuel that’s escaping.

Car cuts off while driving. Runs for awhile and will cut off again. Check engine light came on the first time codes says the fuel pump. Change the fuel pump. 2nd time it does it codes pOO88 and POOc6 comes up and changes the fuel pressure sensor. Car starts to stall and cuts off a third time.

The contact owns a 2014 Ford Fusion. The contact stated while driving 55-65 MPH, the engine made an abnormal revving sound. The contact stated that the check engine warning light was illuminated. The contact stated upon arriving to the residence and inspecting the vehicle, she noticed that there was a significant amount of air coming out of the gas tank flap. The contact stated that the failure occurred when the gas tank was less than half tank full. Additionally, the contact stated that after refueling the vehicle at the gas station, the vehicle failed to start up immediately. The contact stated that the accelerator pedal had to be depressed several times to start. Additionally, the contact stated that the rearview camera image was inaccurate and displayed objects and pedestrians on the opposite side of where they were physically located. The contact also stated that the rear-view camera image turned black intermittently while reversing. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that the vehicle was not covered under an unknown recall for the fuel tank and canister purge valve inspection and repair. The failure mileage was approximately 180,000.

Fuel tank: Tank leaked when it was filled. Most of the time in my driveway but occasionally in parking lots unstil the tank level was reduced to approximately 3/4 filled. In addition fumes would fill the air surrounding the car. The automobile is being currently repaired at an independent repair facility. No other inspection other than repair facility. Initially no warning light but as it progressed the "check engine light" lit. Inspected the removed gas tank at repair facility and the caused of the problem may be a design flaw. the tank design on my vehicle (all wheel drive) is such that it has two zones and each zone has a fuel pump. The retaining plates on the tank are made of metal and therefore due to New England winters and the position of the tank and the location of the tank the retaining plates rust. This resulted in the retaining plates to rust leaving pin holes in the retaining rings causing gas and fumes to exit the fuel system.

Car started making a loud noises from the back of the car when sitting idle in traffic. Noise got louder when opening gas cap. Once refueled the car failed to restart (turn on then shut off right away) and gave run, power, active message and engine light came on. After several tries and leaving foot on brake after pushing start and putting into gear right away the car stayed running. This leads me to believe this is the purge valve as many others have had the same issue. Ford issued a recall on the Focus and earlier model Fusions for this issue but has not included the 2014 yet.

Unknown but every time I get gas my car basically tries to stall out or does stall out. Has stalled out 2x while at a red light. Has been happening the entire time I have owned this car. Over a year and half

My engine light came on. Code is PP0456 - evap leak. Dealer found that gromet/seal on tank is failing. This part is not serviceable, so the entire fuel tank needed to be replaced. After dealer discount, the cost was $2242.24. Dealer is Larry H. Miller Ford, Mesa, AZ, phone (480) 530-9600. I have owned many Ford vehicles since 1978 and never experienced such an expense. In my opinion, this is a design issue since the rubber seal is not serviceable. This experience is causing me to lose faith in the Ford brand. Is FMC willing to assist with this expense? Please note - this vehicle has only been serviced at the dealership.

VEHICLE'S GAS PEDDLE BECOMES UNRESPONSIVE/LOCKS WHILE IN OPERATION. TWICE THIS HAS OCCURRED AT TOP SPEEDS OF 65 ON MAJOR HIGHWAYS AND THANKFULLY, IN SITUATIONS WHERE I COULD PULL ONTO A MEDIAN. THAT SAID, THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION REGARDLESS AND SHOULD SUBSTANTIATE AN INVESTIGATION AS IT'S APPARENT I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO'S EXPERIENCED THIS. IN ADDITION TO THIS, THE VEHICLE REFUSES TO TURN OVER WHEN FILLED WITH GASOLINE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 FORD FUSION. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE LOSS MOTIVE POWER AND STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED AND OPERATED NORMALLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO 5 STAR FORD LOCATED AT 900 RUSSELL PKWY, WARNER ROBINS, GA 31088, TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE FUEL TANK SENSOR AND PURGE VALVE WERE DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 85,000.

PURGE VALVE SOLENOID BAD CAUSING CAR TO SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. GOT CODE P144A

WHEN FUELING THE TANK VEHICLE WILL NOT STAY RUNNING. ENGINE STARTS AND THEN DIES. THIS GOES ON UP TO FIVE MINUTES THEN ENGINE STAYS RUNNING WITH NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON. CHECK CODES THERE IS P1450 STORED. OTHER TIMES IT HAPPENS AFTER DRIVING AND TURNING ENGINE OFF AND THEN RE STARTING A FEW MINUTES LATER, SOMETIMES THE ENGINE STUTTERS AND DIES AFTER DRIVING WHICH CAN BE IN A PARKING LOT OR MAKE TO THE HIGHWAY STOP AT A STOP LIGHTS WHICH GETS REALLY SCARY WHEN OTHER TRAFFIC IS AROUND. I LOOK UP MY VIN FOR RECALLS IT SHOWS NONE. IT STARTING HAPPENING A WHILE BACK JUST ONCE IN A WHILE ACCURRENCE, NOW EVERYTIME I FILL UP.

UPON APPLYING THE GAS AND ACCELERATING FROM A STOP OR IDLE POSITION AND SOMETIMES AT SPEED, MY 2014 FUSION WILL SPUTTER WITH JERKING MOTION WHILE LOSING RPMS AND POWER BEFORE STALLING ALTOGETHER. IT HAS HAPPENED MORE FREQUENTLY AND TODAY IT OCCURRED MULTIPLE TIMES, IN SEVERAL INSTANCES WHEN ENTERING TRAFFIC FROM A SIDE ROAD. THIS CREATES A SIGNIFICANT POTENTIAL FOR AN ACCIDENT TO OCCUR AS THE CAR SUDDENLY STALLS WHILE CARS ARE APPROACHING AND MOST LIKELY NOT ANTICIPATING MY VEHICLE TO COME TO A STOP. MY ONLY RECOURSE IS TO SHIFT THE CAR TO PARK AND ATTEMPT TO RESTART, WHICH THUS FAR HAS WORKED; THOUGH, THE CAR IS A BIT DIFFICULT TO START AFTERWARD. THERE'S A HESITATION TO START AFTERWARD, AS IF THERE'S NO FUEL, BUT NOT LIKE AN ELECTRICAL OR STARTER ISSUE.

TAKATA RECALL: THE CAR IS STALLING WHILE I AM IN DRIVE, WITH SPEEDS UP TO 70 MPH. IT ALSO WILL NOT START AFTER I HAVE PUT GAS IN THE TANK. I HAVE TO STEP ON THE GAS TO GWT IT TO START. THE CAR IS ALSO SHAKING BACK AND FORTH WHILE IN PARK JUST TRYING TO STAY STARTED. THEN IT WILL DIE. EVERYTIME I COME TO A STOPLIGHT OR A STOP SIGN I GO THROUGH THIS AND HAVE GREAT DIFFICULTY STARTING IT BACK UP CONTINUOUSLY.

THE PURGE VALVE WENT OUT ON MY CAR AFTER NEVER HAVING ANY PERFORMANCE OR EMISSIONS RELATED ISSUES. UPON RESEARCHING, IT SEEMS TO BE RATHER COMMON IN FORD FUSIONS. IS THERE A RECALL REVIEW WARRANTED AT THIS TIME? I WAS DRIVING TO WORK AND STARTED HEARING A LOUD HUMMING, VIBRATING SOUND COMING FROM MY GAS TANK / GAS CAP AREA. IT CONTINUED TO HUM EVERY 15 SECONDS OR SO OVER THE NEXT 20 MINUTES UNTIL I ARRIVED AT WORK. THERE WERE NO OTHER ISSUES AND MY CAR SEEMED TO RUN JUST FINE. THIS IS, HOWEVER, AN EMISSIONS CONCERN AND SEEMS TO BE COMMON IN FORD FUSION FORUMS. PLEASE INVESTIGATE FOR A RECALL ALERT.

GAS TANK MAKES A LOUD TAPPING NOISE AT LOW SPEEDS WHEN THE GAS TANK IS OVER 3/4 FULL.

FUEL WILL BE AT 43 MILES TO EMPTY AND FUEL LIGHT WILL COME ON THEN GO OFF THEN THE CAR SHUTS OFF WHEN IT'S SITTING
