Driving at the speed limit of 40 MPH no warning lights, Check engine lights or anything it just blew up. Up to this point all maitence was done properly and after doing some research it had the same issue report by multiple other Shelby owners of this year. This vehicle is not safe for the roads and if not properly investigated, it can cause someone to lose their life. I incurred a bruised head, burns and loss of hair from this accident.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

Potential Consequences:

The new purge valve is faulty in my car. It has been replaced once in 2017, and another time in 2022 (possibly 2021), due to a total engine rebuild under powertrain warranty. This valve is a known common issue on online forums. For the model cars 2018 and 2019, this is an open recall. I strongly believe this should be investigated. In the past, this faulty valve caused my car to stall and die on a busy road. Both Ford customer service and the dealer have given me conflicting information whether or not this part is covered under emissions warranty, causing a headache. The dealer stated that if given a sequence of codes, the dealer has been instructed by Ford to replace the part for free. This indicates that Ford is aware of the common hazard that the faulty purge valve is causing. Considering this part is less than 2 years old, it should at least be covered by the 2 year emissions warranty. However, I believe others, like me, have suffered the nuisance and safety risk of this faulty part, and have paid unnecessary expenses due to Ford's negligence to address this known issue.

WHEELS

Potential Consequences:

I recently took my vehicle to the local Ford dealer to get the oil changed and tires rotated. The service technician told me that they could not do the tire rotation without replacing my lug nuts at a cost of $100 because the lug nuts were swollen. I told her I wasn't interested thinking this was some type of bogus sales ploy. I mean how can lug nuts swell? She then threatened, " well you know if you have a flat you'll be stuck on the side of the road unable to change the tire!" This made me angry because I thought it was a bunch of baloney. When I got home I actually removed the lug wrench from my trunk and tried to remove the lug nuts only to find that she was telling the truth. I could not get the lug wrench on the nuts without driving it on with a hammer. Then the nut was stuck in the wrench which had to be clamped in a vise and the nut driven out with a punch. This is how I replaced all my lug nuts. I bought a set from Advance Auto Parts for $41. However, I still have to question why this problem which can leave people stranded on the side of the road and which the Ford dealerships are obviously aware of has not resulted in a recall?
