All Structurebodydoorhinge And Attachments Complaints
THE REAR DOORS OF MY FORD FOCUS HAVE TWICE OPENED WHILE DRIVING DUE TO A RUSTED OUT LATCH MECHANISM. THE FIRST OCCURRENCE WAS 9/30/07 AND THE SECOND WAS 11/5/07. THE SECOND TIME THERE WAS A CHILD IN THE BACKSEAT. THE CAR IS A 2005 MODEL AND ONLY 2 YEARS OLD. THE LATCHES WERE RECALLED ON 2000-2005 MODELS BUT APPARENTLY NOT MY SPECIFIC VEHICLE. AFTER HAVING TO PAY 2 TIMES IN A LITTLE OVER A MONTH TO REPAIR THESE DEFECTIVE PARTS, I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF THE DOOR LATCHES IN MY VEHICLE. NO ONE WAS INJURED DURING EITHER OF THESE INCIDENTS. *TR
I PURCHASED A BRAND NEW 2005 FORD FOCUS ZX4 IN DECEMBER OF 2005. UPON DELIVERY I NOTICED MY CAR HAD A HARD TIME STARTING AND THE WHOLE ENGINE WOULD SHAKE AND KNOCK. AFTER A MONTH I TOOK IT INTO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T FIND A PROBLEM. THE CONDITION CONTINUED AND I TOOK IT IN AGAIN AND THEY COULDN'T FIND A PROBLEM BUT ASKED TO KEEP IT FOR AN OVERNIGHT START. I BROUGHT IT IN A FEW DAYS LATER SO THEY COULD KEEP IT OVER NIGHT AND THEY FOUND A BULLETIN BY FORD SAYING THEY KNOW THERE IS A HARD START PROBLEM BUT THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO FIX IT. I THEN HAD TO HAVE THE DRIVER'S SEAT BELT REPLACED BECAUSE IT WOULDN'T UNLATCH OCCASIONALLY. I THEN HAD TO HAVE THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR CASING REPLACED BECAUSE IT WAS DISCOLORED. THEN ABOUT A MONTH AND A HALF AGO...
