Consumer Description

DRIVERS DOOR OPENED BACKING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY. TRIED TO SHUT IT AND IT WOULD NOT SHUT. IT APPEARS THE TRUCK HAS THE FREEZE DOOR LATCH ISSUE THAT FORD HAS BEEN EXPERIENCING FOR THE PAST 4 YEARS. THE NHTSA SHOULD DEMAND A RECALL AND MAKE FORD FIX THE VEHICLES CORRECTLY. SO MANY PEOPLE ARE GETTING THE SERVICE PERFORMED AND IT IS NOT FIXING THE PROBLEM. IT IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY ISSUE WHEN YOU DOOR CAN FLY OPEN AT ANYTIME.
