1995 FORD WINDSTAR - SLIDING DOOR TOP FORWARD BRACKET ATTACH POINT. 1) THE METAL AROUND THE ATTACH POINT ON THE DOOR SHOWS STRESS CRACKS ON ALL FOUR SIDES AND THE METAL UNDER THE PAINT IS BUCKLING. THE LOCATION OF THE BRACKET BELOW THE DOOR SEAL MAY ALLOW RAIN TO POOL UP ON THE BRACKET SUPPORT AND CAUSE THE SUPPORTING METAL TO RUST AND SEPARATE FROM THE VEHICLE. 2) DOOR IS RATTLING AND IS IN DANGER OF FALLING OFF.

WHILE DROPPING OFF MY CHILD AT PRESCHOOL, THE VAN'S SLIDING DOOR DETACHED FROM THE VEHICLE AND FELL SIDEWAYS ONTO THE GRASS. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE FORD REPAIR SHOP HERE, AND THEY HAVE TOLD ME I AM RESPONSIBLE FOR THE $200 REPAIR. MY FEELING IS THAT A SLIDING DOOR TO A FIVE-YEAR-OLD VAN SHOULD NOT JUST BE FALLING OFF, AND THAT WE ARE ALL VERY LUCKY MY LITTLE BOY WAS NOT STANDING BESIDE IT WHEN IT DID.

#711747 | September 21, 1999

MY SLIDING DOOR ON THE SIDE OF MY FAMILY OWNED VEHICLE HAS FALLEN OFF! IT HAS HAPPENED ON TWO SEPERATE OCCASIONS, BUT NOBODY CAN FIGURE OUT WHY. I FEEL THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY RISK , AND WOULD LIKE HELP CLARIFYING THIS PROBLEM. I HAVE FIVE SMALL CHILDREN, AND IF THIS CAR WAS SAFETY TESTED AS A FAMILY VEHICLE, THEY MADE SOME SERIOUS ERRORS. YOUR HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. JUST SO YOU KNOW THE CAR HAS NEVER BEEN INVOLVED IN ANY TYPE OF ACCIDENT, AND WE WERE SLIDING THE DOOR OPEN ON ONE OCCASION, AND SLIDING IT SHUT ON THE OTHER.
