My wife got to the mall and tried to get out of the car and the door would not unlatch. She called me frantic asking what to do. She did not dare ask a stranger, so I told her to wait and I would be right there. She was very upset by the time I got there.-20 min. The door opened normally from the outside. Later I took the door apart and found that a plastic part of the handle that transfers motion to the door latch had broken. This seems like a poor design and/ or a poor choice of material. In a different circumstance or location this could have been a life threatening event. I believe the design or material should be changed before someone is injured or worse killed.

The latch on my driver's side door slipped. The door won't open from the inside & gets stuck open. There is an active recall of the same nature on other years, same make & model: Ford recall 15S16. Issue occurred when I was trying to open door.

The front drivers door will no longer open from the inside. This started on September 30, 2016 while I was on a road trip. I thought maybe it was a fuse or electrical problem. I started rolling the window down to open the door from the outside. We went to the Ford dealership and was told the part was back ordered by more than 700 parts. If we hold two parts of the handle at the same time we can get the door open. I have carpal tunnel and that is sometimes difficult. When I asked about a recall I was told not yet but the problem has been corrected in later models. If it is ever recalled we will get our repair money back. It has been several weeks and we are still waiting for the part. If I am in an accident or need to get out of the car in a hurry this is definitely a safety hazard. What if I lose power and cannot get the window down. I can not valet park. I was told and well as saw it on the internet that this is a widespread problem with the Mkzs and Ford Fusion. This is a safety hazard.
