Check Engine Light Fuel Tank Assembly

[Benjam1n]

Hybrid 2022 Maverick Miles 40,000

The check engine light came on and I took to the local Ford dealership and this is their response

The fuel tank assembly needs to be replaced and you are out of bumper to bumper warranty by mileage. The full repairs would be $2725 after tax.

Is this a known issue and why would they need to replace the entire system?

If you want to share your VIN, I can see if there's anything I can see. I work at a Ford dealership, and might be able to see what they think is wrong that is causing them to want to replace the fuel tank.

O'Reily's printed out a paper and said it was a fuel sensor that had to do with the emissions. Said they don't carry part and to take to Ford because of it being a newer vehicle.

That is probably the most common issue that that code relates to, but is not the only possibility

On the underside of your hood near the latch does the white tag say California: ULEV50 or SULEV30?

What is the manufactured month/year on the driver's door tag?

Broadly, New Mexico followes CARB regs so those emissions warranties apply. So I'd think it should be covered under the 3yr/50k mile short-term emission control defect warranty if not the 7yr/70k mile long term defect warranty.

If it was Job 2 then it'd be SULEV30 certified which has an even longer, more comprehensive emissions warranty.

It's a 2022 but don't have the info handy why? What were you thinking?
