Complaint Summary
FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
Owner Narrative
The contact owns a 2010 Ford Fusion. The contact stated that after turning the vehicle off and exiting the vehicle the contact heard air seeping and leaking sound coming from the rear of the vehicle. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who diagnosed a failure with the canister purge valve. The vehicle was repaired. The contact stated that a short time later upon approaching the vehicle the contact observed gasoline pooling underneath the rear of the vehicle. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer, who then determined that the excessive pressure resulting from the failure of the canister purge valve caused the fuel tank to develop a crack that was then leaking gasoline. The vehicle was not repaired. After investigating the failure, the contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V793000 (Fuel System, Gasoline), but the VIN was not included. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline for assistance. The failure mileage was 170,000.
