2.7L Evap control problem
I am having a similar issue with my 2015 f-150 with the 2.7L EB. Check engine light came on at about 59,500 miles so I took it to the closest dealership to run a diagnostic hoping whatever the issue was would be covered under the warranty that expired st 60,000 miles. Code came back as the same P2450 Evap control system valve performance stuck open. They briefly explained what this meant but said it was not covered under the power train warranty. I’m confused how something that’s a part of the exhaust system is not covered under the power train warranty. Paying $900 to have it fixed after just buying the truck 6 months ago seems outrageous. Is this something that should be covered under warranty/should it cost as much as the dealership quoted me?

I'm new to the forum and I wanted to know if you were able to resolve this issue being that I am having the same issue. I'm hoping that I can resolve it without going to the dealership.

Welcome to the forum, Turbo-trucker! I'd like to escalate your check engine light to the customer service manager (CSM) for your region; they'll look into the ordered part to see if they can speed up the process. To get started, sending me a private message (PM) with your full name, best daytime phone number, VIN, current mileage, and servicing dealership. Leave the rest to me.

I am having the same check engine code on my 2015 F150 2.7L V6 with 39,000. Can you help me? Ford service centers near me are closed!
thanks,
Steve

TSB 18-2522 for a 2.7 Ecoboost?
I have a brand new 2018 F150 Lariat wtih the 2.7 L Ecoboost. At 940 miles on the odometer (1 week old- car had 340 miles on odometer at pickup) the check engine light came on. OBDII reader say code P2450. Took to the purchasing dealer and they performed the TSB 18-2522. Basically just reprogramming the PCM, which resets the check engine light (hopefully updates any software or firmware). But when I read the TSB is says it applies to all engines EXCEPT the 2.7 L. Has anyone else had this TSB performed for this problem in this configuration? Did it fix the problem or should I be more aggressive with the dealer to perform the full "drop the fuel tank, replace the control valve, etc."

Hey new to the site and was wandering if there was anything I could do for my truck, its got 6k miles on it and has the check engine light on twice now. The dealership was saying it was just a vacuum line and reset the computer but has came on again and is very annoying riding around with the light on.

I know this thread is 2 years old, but I want to keep it alive since it appears my 2018 F150 is experiencing similar symptoms. I brought my recently-purchased 2018 F-150 XTR to local dealer (Garnet Ford) a couple months ago, for a $200 "Used Vehicle Inspection" (after I bought it elsewhere) and everything looked good. Then I popped a CEL (DTC P0451) which is apparently related to an evap leak, and brought it back to be checked under the basic vehicle warranty (which expired on March 31, 2021) on March 23. The Work Order (attached) says “Found TSB 18-2252 for concern reprogrammed PCM basic”. A couple days ago the CEL came back on, and when I pulled the code with my OBDII code reader it showed P2450. I have not noticed any discernable impact on vehicle operation, but am still concerned. I cleared the P2450 code a couple days ago, and it has not returned. We’ll see.
The reason I am posting here is that I did some research online, and it appears this silly fuel filler arrangement (no gas cap, fuel filler door is supposed “seal” shut) has been generating DTCs on F150s for some time. I also read posts indicating it may have something to do with the Evap Check Valve on top of the fuel tank (see Wassup8687's 01.03.2019 post above), and replacing the part requires dropping the fuel tank as well as the driveshaft (a very expensive procedure). I love my truck, and I’m hoping the code stays away, but if not, it is my informed opinion (I’ve been working on my own vehicles for years) that the P2450 code is related to the same issues that generated the P0451 code, and if this continues I will press the issue with Ford Motor Company to the fullest extent possible. Stay tuned.
