Consumer Description

OPENED PASSENGER SIDE REAR DOOR TO PUT CHILD IN CAR CARSEAT. SHUT THE DOOR, GOT IN AND STARTED CAR. WHEN I STARTED TO REVERSE THE DOOR OPEN ALERT CAME ON. GOT OUT OF CAR THINKING I JUST DIDN'T SHUT THE DOOR HARD ENOUGH. THE DOOR WOULD NOT LATCH. HAVE NOT GONE TO DEALERSHIP BECAUSE BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY IS UP. FROM WHAT I HAVE READ THERE IS A BACK ORDER ON THE PART I NEED TO FIX IT. I HAVE THE DOOR TIED TO THE INSIDE OF THE CAR AND THE DOOR OPEN NOTIFICATION CONSTANTLY COMES ON AS WELL AS THE INSIDE LIGHTS. LUCKILY I NOTICED THIS BEFORE PULLING OFF OR THE SITUATION COULD HAVE BEEN LIFE THREATENING FOR THE KIDS! I HOPE THAT FORD RECOGNIZES THIS PROBLEM AND DOES A RECALL! *JS
