The symptoms are a fuel leak when the tank is full, and a gasoline Oder, again when full. This item was discovered around the first of the year, Ford not able to see the car until March 3rd.

Few months ago, suddendly I got a bad gasoline smell coming from the aft of the car. The smell is strong when I refill the tank. Brought the car to FORD service, they found a very small crack on top of the tank. I'm very surprised how a 5 years car got this kind of safety issue, FORD wants charge me 2000$ to fix it. FYI: I'm not been caught in any kind of accident.

Drove car 600 miles then there was no coolant in the vehicle. Car gas hand says car was half way full after I filled the car up. It will give the wrong reading then once you start driving It will reset. Air conditioning will not work got half way down the highway across country and the air conditioning stop work for 2 hours. Then it will only work on low until I turned off and on a couple times then it started blowing air. Remote start - cold start will not start sometimes or take a couple of times to start the vehicle and you have to be directly in front of the vehicle it will lock and open from your home but you have to walk directly in front of the vehicle for it to start.
