In a 2013 Ford Fusion and most other American cars, error code P144C means that the valve checking the evaporative emission canister purge is stuck open or the valve itself is damaged. It's a hassle, especially if you live in a state that requires emissions testing. You'll have to get it fixed. Typically, this code means you'll need to replace the valve, which can cost between $50 and $150 for parts, depending on what needs to be replaced and the brand you choose. It may be challenging to do it yourself, possibly requiring you to lower the fuel tank, but it can be completed in an afternoon.
The error code P144C for the 2013 Ford Fusion relates to the performance of the purge check valve in the evaporative emission system.
