Consumer Description

I HAVE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS FOR OVER A YEAR WITH A DEFECTIVE DOOR SWITCH ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE REAR DOOR CAUSING THE "DOOR AJAR" WARNING LIGHT TO DISPLAY AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TO STAY ON WHEN THE DOOR IS SHUT TIGHT. THE WARNING LIGHT WILL STAY ON THE ENTIRE TIME THE CAR IS RUNNING, WHETHER STATIONARY OR MOVING. RECENTLY I RECEIVED THE ATTACHED CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM LETTER 19N09. AS YOU CAN SEE IT CLEARLY STATES THAT FORD'S OFFER TO REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE SWITCH FREE OF CHARGE IS FOR THE DRIVERS SIDE FRONT DOOR ONLY. I CHATTED WITH A FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE ON JANUARY 29, 2020 AND WAS TOLD THAT AT THIS TIME THEIR OFFER DOES NOT EXTENDED TO OTHER DOORS. I WAS ALSO TOLD TO CONTACT THE NHTSA AND FILE A COMPLAINT. IN RECENT MONTHS I HAVE CHECKED ON SEVERAL FORD OWNER WEBSITES AND HAVE FOUND THAT DEFECTIVE DOOR SWITCH PROBLEM IS HAPPENING ON ANY DOORS OF THE AFFECTED FORD OWNERS' VEHICLES. TO ME THIS MAKES FORD'S OFFER POINTLESS TO THE MAJORITY OF THE VEHICLES WITH DEFECTIVE DOOR SWITCHES! ON BEHALF OF MYSELF AND ALL OTHER FORD OWNERS WITH THIS PROBLEM I WOULD LIKE TO SEE FORD EXTEND THIS FREE REPAIR TO ANY VEHICLE DOORS WITH THE DEFECTIVE SWITCHES! PLEASE HELP US!!
