Consumer Description

DRIVER DOOR WON'T LOCK OR UNLOCK IN EXTREME COLD. TO EXIT AND ENTER TRUCK, I HAVE TO USE THE PASSENGER DOOR AND SLIDE INTO DRIVER SEAT, WHICH IS VERY DIFFICULT B/C OF THE CENTER CONSOLE. NO WAY I COULD GET OUT OF THE TRUCK IN A HURRY IF I HAD TO. TOOK TO A DEALER BUT OF COURSE IT COULDN'T BE DUPLICATED. INTERNET SEARCH SHOWS THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH THE 2021 FORD F150.
