2013 Ford Fiesta Fuel System Problems

THE NATURAL VACUUM LEAK DETECTION PUMP ON MY VEHICLE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED . A REVIEW ON LINE SHOWS THAT THIS DEVICE WHICH IS PART OF THE EMISSIONS SYSTEM IS CONTINUOUSLY BACKORDERED FOR MONTHS. INDICATIING A HIGH FAILURE RATE. THIS PUMP IS ESSENTIAL IN THAT IT PERMITS THE CAR TO BE FILLED AT A GAS PUMP. IN FAILURE YOU CAN ONLY FILL A GALLON AT A TIME BEFORE THE VALVE IN IT CLOSED AND YOU HAVE TO REMOVE THE NOZZLE AND START AGAIN.

WAS TOLD TPS WAS BAD VEHICLE SHUTTERS AND LOOSES POWER SHUTS OFF ON FREEWAY VERY DANGEROUS THE HOLE THROTTLE BOD MUST BE PURCHASED TO FIX BUT WHEN TAKEN TO DEALERSHIP WAS TOLD RUNS FINE AFTER 3 TIME WHEN IT WAS DOING IT AGAIN WENT STRAIGHT TO DEALER TOLD ME IS POSSIBLY THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR MAY BE PROBLEM

PARKED AND ENGINE OFF: WHEN REFUELING, THE GAS BUILDS UP, AS IT "BURPS" GAS SPILLS OUT UNDER THE CAR WHEEL AND ON TO THE PAVEMENTS. THE REFUELING TAKES FOREVER, SINCE WE PURCHASED IT - WE SMELLED OUR HANDS & SHOES SMELLING LIKE GAS, BUT DIDN'T CONNECT IT IMMEDIATELY TO FUEL SYSTEM ISSUE SINCE IT WAS A NEW CAR.

I BOUGHT THE 2013 FIESTA IN AUGUST OF 2013. WITH 500 MILES ON IT THE TRANSMISSION WAS LURCHING, CLANKING, AND GRINDING. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME IT WAS NORMAL AND THEY WOULDN'T EVEN LOOK AT IT. I ALSO COMPLAINED THAT THE CAR WAS ONLY GETTING 25MPG HIGHWAY WHEN IT CLAIMED 40. THEY SAID IT WAS IN THE WINDOW FOR EPA, AND IT WOULD GET BETTER AFTER 1500 MILES. I COMPLAINED TO THE MAIN FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THEY TOLD ME THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. I NOW HAVE $14K MILES ON IT AND IT STILL AVERAGES 20-25MPG HIGHWAY. I HAD TO TAKE THE CAR TO THEM AT $12K MILES TO FIX THE ENGINE MALFUNCTION. WHEN I CALLED THE MECHANIC HE ALREADY KNEW WHAT IT WAS, WHICH MEANS IT HAPPENS A LOT. THE ENGINE STILL LURCHES, CLANKS, GRINDS, ETC. I'M $8K UPSIDE DOWN ON TRADE IN ALREADY BECAUSE THE VALUE OF THIS CAR HAS DROPPED SO MUCH IN THE LAST YEAR DUE TO ALL THESE ISSUES. *TR
