The P1450 code in the 2013 Ford Escape is defined as "Unable to Bleed Up Fuel Tank Vacuum". What this means is an excess vacuum was found in the fuel tank or EVAP system. These vacuum levels specifically pertain to engine speed above idling RPMs. Potential causes for this code include a blocked EVAP canister or vent solenoid, a collapsed or blocked hose, damaged wiring, failed fuel pressure sensor, or a stuck fuel filler cap. In rare cases the problem will be with the PCM itself. Usually the code will be accompanied by a warning light or other issues such as trouble starting after a fuELRefill. The code can be cleared using an OBD scanner but You should also be sure to check for the aforementioned causes first.
