The driver door stops latch will freeze up and not close half the time whether its sitting still or in motion

- Elberton, GA, USA

When the temperature dips below freezing, door will not latch on drivers side. Extremely dangerous. Only remedy I have found is to either park in a garage (not possible for me) or to close the door and hit the lock button. The door will not fully close, but after truck gets to warming temp, it eventually will latch. Just a super dangerous situation especially when you need the truck to get to work or something and have no other mode of Transport. I believe there is a safety bulletin but my VIN comes back with no recalls.

The running boards are supposed to automatically extend when the door is opened. Many times on both the driver side and passenger side will try to extend but will not stay, they immediately retract. This causes the occupant to have to take a very large step up into or out of the vehicle. Sometimes they fail completely to even try to extend at all when the door is opened. This occurs for both the front and back doors. This is when the vehicle is stopped. It happens when the vehicle is off and when it is on.

Water is getting in the truck, wetting and staining the driver side airbag, and coming out of the driver side grab handle, running down the electrical instrument panel. This is most apparent when the vehicle is parked on an incline during a rain storm, with the front of the vehicle lower than the back.

I recently bought a Ford truck and just a normal day I was driving and the truck just power off I took the truck to a Ford service they told me I still have extended warranty, they check the truck and told me that the issue was electrical throttle body snd that my warranty doesn't covered that malfunction, I think that a new truck with less than 51 thousands miles with electrical problems meaning that Ford just don't want to covered what they don't do right

Rear window blow out. I turned on my vehicle this morning to warm up. I turned on the defrosters and went back inside for approximately 2 minutes. When I came back outside I could smell a electrical type burning smell. I am a firefighter and am familiar with this odor. No smoke or flames ever present/visible. I turned then suddenly heard a loud pop, realizing that both sides of my rear window had completely shattered. The vehicle was not moving. No one was in the vehicle and I was the only one near it. Nothing hit the window and I had never had the smell in my truck before.

Since November 2018 when temperatures are below 32 degrees my doors will not close once opened on my F-150, until the lock is forced down.. the truck has been to the dealership multiple times for all frozen door latch recall (18no3). When the doors do close, by forcing the lock down, they will not reopen until the truck has warmed up. All four doors have been affected. My children have been locked in the back (crew cab). I have had to drive to the dealership holding the drivers door closed. The doors are a safety concern for my family and I, and Ford has no fix for the problem. The dealership will not buy back the truck. The problem exist stationary and in motion.

Doors freeze shut in and around door handle so stationary vehicle cannot be entered in cold weather. In other cases the door can be opened but will not latch even though vehicle is in motion. Often vehicle is in motion before it is realized the door is not latched and door has and may swing open while traveling if not held in place by the individuals hand. This problem has occurred at least 6 different days in January and first full week of February 2019 in temperatures below 22 degrees F. to date no injury nor property damage has resulted from this concern. The doors have been treated with deicer along with a strong dose of penetrating oil. This has not cured the problem.

In below freezing conditions, the door latches will no longer operate causing the doors to open freely. Ford is aware of this issue as I received a "customer satisfaction bulletin" for this issue, however the fix provided does not work. There is currently an active recall for vehicles for the same model year, but mine is supposedly not impacted. I've got a friend who has a 2018 F-150 who has the same issue. This recall clearly needs to be expanded to beyond model year 2017 and an appropriate fix provided as the one Ford has does not work.

Recall 18N03 - fix freezing door latches. My vehicle was in for the recall to be completed on 1/10/19. At the conclusion of the recall 'fix', I picked up the vehicle from the local Ford dealership. The service department person, stated "your vehicle is fixed (using air quotes), but if you have any further trouble, feel free to contact us. I expect to hear from you." The two front doors of the vehicle will not latch unless they are thawed. In temps above roughly 28 degrees fahr. They are fine, when colder the door will unlock with remote or key, however once the door is opened it will not latch closed until the latch is thawed. Friday, 1/11/19, after work about 7pm, I entered the truck, thought everything was fine and the door latched. As I was leaving the parking lot, the driver's door swung open. I had to hold the door closed with one hand to drive the eight miles home. I understand Ford Motor Co. Has been aware of this since the 2015 production year and has not provided an adequate solution.

Frozen door latch. 20 degrees outside. Driver side front door latch frozen and wouldn't open. Had to go to passenger side front door to get inside my 2017 F150. All other door latches working at this time.

- Nampa, ID, USA

Door latches freezing causing doors to open while driving. While driving in cold temperatures the door latches don't work. I was driving several times and when you go around a corner or turn the vehicle left or right the doors swing open. Ford has installed weather seals but they said that the fix is not working as I have proven I was told there is nothing more they can do at this time and will have to deal with

I've had the doors latches of my truck freeze iin the shut and open positions, making the truck unable to be driven, it's happend many times since it's gotten cold out, there are thousands of complaints online and on online Ford F-150 forums about this problem, I have had it in and they did the fsa 18N04 on all 4 doors, they had my truck for 3 days to do this, the very next morning the door latches are doing the exact same thing, at first they unlock and then the door won't latch closed so you can not drive the vehicle, if you can get the door to latch and proceed driving vehicle. The doors will come unlatched while TH3 vehicle is in motion, there's two parts to this issue, first it leaves the vehicle unable to be used in an emergency, and if the latches do appear to latch and you use the vehicle the latches allow the doors to fling open while driving, this is both a huge safety issue and Ford needs to actually fix this problem and stop bandage the issue...

I have made complaints on here before for the same problem, 3 doors on my truck have either not unlocked or latched when closing door when it's cold out, this is a wide known problem and Ford keeps issuing fixes that don't work, this is a safety issue as the doors open while the trucks being driven, or when your driving the truck and the latches freeze shut you can not open the door to get out, if it was an accident and cehicle was on fire you can't get out, please make this a mandatory recall, it's a huge softy issue...

Door latches freeze and will not properly latch when trying to close or get stuck locked when shut in sub-freezing temperatures. This has happened on 3 occasions. Temperature has always been above 5F but below 32 F

- Burlingame, KS, USA

My front passenger door opened while taking my daughter to school on 11/7/18. We were entering the roundabout at a slow rate of speed when it opened. She had to reach out and hold the door shut as it would no longer latch. All of the doors have had problems latching that last few days. This morning both the front and rear passenger doors would not latch after being open. Last year I had problems with the doors unlocking in below freezing temperatures. I had the truck into the dealer numerous times for repair but so far they are unable to resolve this latch issue.

- Post Falls, ID, USA

Truck parked in driveway, ambient temperature 30F. Driver's side door would not close/latch. If I inserted the key and locked the door it would close. Once opened again it wouldn't close. After a 12 mile drive, the door worked fine. 7000 miles on vehicle.

- Campton, NH, USA

Drivers side front and rear doors do not close in cold weather. Door latches have been replaced with "new version" that was designed after a previous recall. The new latches do not correct the problem and a major safety issue still remains as doors will come open while driving.
