Component

LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES:DOORS:LATCH

What Happened

The door latches on your vehicle are responsible for keeping your doors closed. In some 2012-2016 Ford models, these latches can break, causing the doors to appear closed when they're not.

Risk if Unfixed

If a door isn't properly latched, it could swing open while you're driving, putting you or a passenger at risk of getting hurt.

How to Get This Fixed

Free Fix

Your Ford dealer will swap out the faulty door latches for new, reliable ones – free of charge. You'll get a notification, and you should schedule the repair as soon as possible.
