Consumer Description

I HAVE A STRUCTURAL CRACK IN THE METAL ON THE LOWER REAR CORNER OF THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR. IT IS CURRENTLY ONE HALF INCH IN LENGTH AND GROWING. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH AND SOME INVESTIGATION ON SIMILAR FORD F150'S I HAVE FOUND THAT THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED PROBLEM, BUT RATHER A FAIRLY COMMON ONE. I HAVE ALSO NOTICED THAT THIS IS VERY ISSUE HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO THE ATTENTION OF THE NTSB. I CALLED FORD TODAY, AND RECEIVED THE UNSATISFACTORY ANSWER THAT, SINCE MY WARRANTY IS EXPIRED A REPAIR IS NOT COVERED. I HOPE THAT THE NTSB IS LOOKING AT THIS MATTER CLOSELY AND WILL ISSUE A DECISION ON IT SOON. I AM WORRIED THAT THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF MY VEHICLE IS COMPROMISED, AND THAT THE MANUFACTURER FORD HAS NOT TAKEN THE PROPER STEPS TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. I BELIEVE THAT FORD AND THE NTSB WILL BE TO BLAME IF I OR A MEMBER OF MY FAMILY IS INJURED BECAUSE OF A DOCUMENTED DOOR FAILURE. *AK
