Consumer Description

THE TWO PASSENGER SIDE DOORS WILL NOT OPEN FROM THE OUTSIDE. YOU CAN OPEN THE DOORS FROM THE INSIDE BUT THE HANDLES ON THE OUTSIDE NO LONGER FUNCTION TO OPEN THE DOORS. IN ADDITION THE REAR HATCH HAS A MIND OF ITS OWN. MOST OF THE TIME THE HATCH CAN BE OPENED EVEN WHEN THE CAR IS LOCKED AND ON OCCASION THE HATCH WILL NOT OPEN FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS. IT IS A MYSTERY AS TO WHEN IT IS GOING TO DO THIS. I COULD OPEN THE HATCH AND AN HOUR LATER NOT BE ABLE TO OPEN IT AT ALL. BECAUSE OF THIS ANYONE CAN GAIN ACCESS TO MY CAR AT ANY TIME IF THEY SO CHOSE. WHEN I CALLED FORD IN 2015 THEY TOLD ME I AM NOT PART OF ANY RECALL.
