Consumer Description

I PARKED THE VEHICLE AT THE GROCERY STORE, YESTERDAY (7-10-2016) AND COULD NOT OPEN MY DOOR TO GET OUT. THE DOOR HANDLE ON THE DRIVER'S DOOR STOPPED OPERATING. IT DOES NOT ALLOW ME TO EXIT THE VEHICLE WITHOUT ROLLING DOWN THE WINDOW AND OPENING THE DOOR FROM THE OUTSIDE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE IN CASE OF FIRE OR THE NEED TO QUICKLY EXIT THE VEHICLE. I HAD A DOOR HANDLE ISSUE WITH MY PREVIOUS CAR, 2009 FORD FOCUS, ONLY YOU COULD NOT GET INTO THE CAR USING THE OUTSIDE DRIVER'S SIDE HANDLE. I ALSO LOOKED AT THE NUMBER OF OTHER FORD FUSION CUSTOMERS WHO HAVE THE SAME ISSUE AND IT SEEMS TO BE A STANDARD DOOR ISSUE. HOW MANY COMPLAINTS DOES A VEHICLE HAVE TO HAVE BEFORE A RECALL IS CREATED?
