And the dealers may not be fixing them.

ord is recalling more than 2 million vehicles in the US because the doors could open while the vehicle is being driven.

These vehicles have been recalled before for faulty door latches but, according to Ford, some dealers that claimed to have fixed this problem during the previous recalls either didn't do the work correctly or didn't do it at all. Ford did not name any specific dealerships. CNN Business has contacted a dealership association, but has yet to hear back.


So not only is your car going to kill you, but you can't even trust the scum bag dealership to fix it properly.

The passenger door on a friend of mine's F-250 would not open if you parked that front wheel on an incline. The truck would actually bend just enough to jam the doors closed.

Some of you guys are obsessed with hating on Ford. If you don't like them, don't buy one

Y'all remind me of the dudes that used to have the Calvin stickers peeing on some other brand's logo

Yeah, but it would make it easier to jump out before going over the cliff...

Automatic spoilers normally go above the rear end of a vehicle.

Ford is leading in innovation as usual. Good on them!

I own a fusion and can say my front passenger door flying open in a curve was pretty wild. Dealership said they fixed it. Hasn't opened up on it's own so far

Ford’s are junk, why anybody would buy them is mind blowing.

I had to bring my wife's in for this. Had to tie the door shut because it wouldn't stay shut

Fixed
Or
Repaired
Daily

I can't really talk though. In high school I had a Chevy where the recall was that the door would fall off unexpectedly. Not just open, but completely separate itself from the car. It happened to me in a parking lot in Elmwood. The hood latch would also just give out, allowing the hood to fly up and block the windshield whilst driving on the interstate.

Well, that can be categorized as a frick up.
