4th CEL - Fault in Emissions Sensor (3rd time, same code)

[JG4696]

Well, it's that time again. CEL popped on again on Friday with the same emissions sensor fault coding as the previous 2 CEL's. This is the 4th CEL since I picked up my BS Badlands and I'm starting to believe this is an electrical short or something, not just a sensor issue. Gas mileage and a bit sluggish over the weekend, but mysteriously the CEL turned off this moring when I was on the way to my dealer in Brownsburg, IN. The service writer knows my face already at this point.

I'm about ready to call this BS Badlands a lemon and will probably be consulting a lawyer after this. This is a first for me, I've never had so many problems with any vehicle. I'll be getting ahold of @Ford Motor Company today hopefully.

From what I've read on here other people with similar issues had their evap cannister replaced because it was cracked and that was the issue. Maybe try a different dealer if they haven't already looked into that?

Interesting, I haven't seen or heard that before. I'll look into it.
