There should be no reason to replace fuel pumps on such a new car!! Ford dealership gave me a quote of $750 charge for replacing the fuel pump, parts and labour. I'm wondering if this is going to be an annual cost and if so, my feeling is.....time to get rid of it!!!
2 things, the Ford Dealer I went to (State College Ford) admitted that the Focus fuel pump is problematic.

$750 That's twice what it cost me to replace mine!!

If you can afford to get rid of the car, get rid of it, it will only cost you more in the long run.
