Recall 16V-777 I received a letter from Ford in January 2018 stating that parts were available for the vehicle to be fixed. I immediately called my local Ford dealer - gibbons Ford and was put on the waiting list since they didn't have the parts. It is now April and the dealer has only received three of the parts to date to fix this problem. I called Ford customer sevice and was given a case number cas14605645. I was told this would be elevated to their management, but I think four months is extremely long time to effect a recall. The vehicle smells like gas and I'm hesitant to drive it due to the increased risk of fire. I basically have a vehicle I can't drive waiting on Ford to get parts to the dealership. Any pressure that can be put on Ford to get the parts to the dealership would be greatly appreciated.

I am contacting in regards to the Ford recall 270277; fuel system, gasoline:delivery:fuel pump. My gas cap light came on last September and when I took it into my regular shop they were able to repair it, however, as this as before the recall was sent out, I had to pay out of pocket. This was a significant cost and I would like to be reimbursed. I am attaching the receipt here with a description of the repair which matches the description of the recall. When I searched how to address the situation, this is the first option that came up, if there is somewhere else I need to reach out to, please advise. Thank you.
