NHTSA Complaint #11646674 — 2016 FORD F-150

Passenger door will not latch and close on 2016 Ford F-150 after snow storm. While the vehicle was parked, the front passenger's side door latch failed to latch as intended. We discovered the issue when we were trying to leave our house during the extremely cold freezing weather. The door had to be manually held closed when traveling a short distance. We were able to get it latched to drive on the interstate to church, but then it failed to latch after coming out of church service, when we had to hold it closed manually for a short distance. We then had to use rope to keep the door shut by securing it to another door on the opposite side while traveling back on the interstate to get home. The truck has not been diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or the dealer. The failure mileage was approximately 106,000.
