I got in a accident with a deer and was talking with repair personal. When one asked if I was having any trouble with my door. I said it shakes when hitting bumps. I was worried about the door flying open when roll over occur. He said they have seen alot of them cracking right at the window base then we looked at mine and it was cracked also. He said that the dealer was fixing the crack for free but when I called the dealer they said no they were not fixing the doors. This is a factory defect and might be the cause of death because of improper fit. Inthe case of a roll over the door may come open more freely.

Driver side door has cracked now for the 2nd time in the same place. The truck was repaired at bob townsend Ford in cincinnati, oh and when I returned to show the dealer that the door was cracked again I was told by the service mgr that sometimes stuff like that happens. I have noticed the same crack in the same spot on other Ford including the 97 model. I want my door repaired by Ford! I was told by bob townsend Ford that I would have to pay for repair out of my pocket. It is very clear that Ford knows about the problem but is unwilling to honor its so called quality care program to its customers.
