In freezing weather, the door latches freeze and the door cannot be closed. There is a recall for this issue, #19N06 however it does not work. I had the recall performed then a week later when the weather changed, I am unable to close my door. This is a major safety issue because the driver has to hold the door or strap the door shut while driving and there is also the risk of it not being truly latched and swinging open while moving. Ford provides the one time recall however, in my case this seems to do nothing. I have had the vehicle in to Ford and they claim this is all the recall does to fix it and the rest of the time/labor they spend will be out of my pocket. There are no indicator lights prior to failure, it is strictly due to below freezing weather.

Frozen door latch, unable to close or lock, must hold door closed with one hand while steering with the other hand, extremly unsafe!!!

The rear passenger side door did not latch. My 6 month old son could have fell out because his car seat is on that side. Luckily I noticed it when I was backing out of the driveway and not on the expressway. I pulled back into the drive way and tried to shut the door about 30 times. It would not shut. All the other doors worked fine. The only way to keep the door shut was to hold the door shut and lock the truck. After I did that my door would not unlock. It tried doing it manually but it was stuck in the lock position. It seems something is wrong with the door latch and I am glad that I caught it or my baby could have gotten hurt. The door latches in the truck have to be looked at. I just bought this truck from a dealership last week too.

After loading groceries into the rear seats, I shut the passenger door and thought it was latched. I started to drive off and the door came open. I spent 20 mins trying to get it to latch and although I could move the door latch mechanism with my fingers, the door would not latch and remain shut. I ended up tying the door shut in order to drive home 7 miles.

The truck was sitting in the driveway and out of nowhere the alarm went off. Go out to inspect and the vehicle is showing that the driver and left back door are not closed. The driver side door will not latch it opened up out of nowhere and will not latch. Apparently this issue is know with Ford trucks when it gets too cold. This is a safety issue because the door will just open while driving.

We were driving and another car told us our tailgate was down. We did not put anything into the truck before we started our drive and no buttons were pushed. The tailgate went back up without incident, however there was also no indication from inside the truck that the tailgate was down.

Vehicle had electrical issues - Diagnosis by dealership was water damage to the Body Control Module. This module is inside the cabin on the front passenger area by their feet/legs. The issues included - flashers goin off, horn going off, truck bed gate dropping open - while parked and while driving down highway, and entire vehicle just shutting down while ALL of the issues happened at once. People have been put at risk by the gate dropping and the immediate shut down of an operating vehicle. The dealer was able to reproduce the problem. I had it happen twice. I have since identified that it is something that is a known issue on F150 forums. So much so that the likely cause of the water damage has been identified, and forwarded to the manufacturer. They are not fixing the issue. Manufacturer's dealership technician identified the water damage as the root cause. Required a replacement Body Control Module. Possible warning signs: Noted by myself and others. Emergency flashers randomly going off. Power drain on batteries. Horn going off randomly. Root cause: Unsealed seam between body panels under the hood in the engine bay. Leaking water falls on firewall and then onto the Body Control Module electrical component. Shorting will eventually ensure. This can happen any time. F150 forum thread documenting the likely culprit leaking seam: https://www.f150forum.com/f118/water-leak-cowl-seam-474781/

The driver's door freezes, so once the door is opened it will not latch closed until the door is warmed up. Additionally, the door can catch when closed, but if any pressure is put on the door, it pops open because the latch or mechanism is frozen and will not function properly. This has happened multiple times now, and Ford has stated that we don't live in a 'cold' climate region, so the can not get the cold weather 'repair' to fix this issue. I believe this is a significant safety issue, I can't drive the vehicle until the weather warms up so the door latch will work again.

Tailgate opens while driving and has occurred many times.

This F150 developed an annoying whistling wind noise at around 50MPH and higher. I cannot be sure but I think it's originating from the windshield area. Owned this vehicle since new and now has 22,000 miles.

Condensation from evaporator drain is leaking into cab, which has created mold, exposing myself and any passengers riding in my vehicle including my kids. Ford issued TSB 19-2345 to fix this issue but it does not work and they are not willing to replace the molded carpet under a field service action. This is a known design flaw that should be fixed as soon as possible to prevent mold growth. If mold is found, carpet should be replaced immediately due to the health hazards associated with mold in an enclosed vehicle. Ford should be held liable to fix these issues without any charge to the customer.

In freezing/wintertime conditions drive side door latch freezes open and the door will not remain closed while driving. Problem remains until the truck warms up. Previous recall to fix issue did not resolve the problem. Dealer has no current fix for the problem other than to tell me it-€™s a known issue.

Doors won't latch in below freezing temperatures even after recall preformed in February 2021. Dealer says there's nothing to be done at this point since the recall has already been preformed. The majority of the time when the temperatures drop below freezing you must drive holding doors closed till it will eventually latch. On several occasions the passenger rear door appeared to latch correctly only to swing open when i make a turn. This has happened with my child in their car seat in the passenger rear area. Available for inspection

Continuing issue with the door latches freezing. 20deg weather truck sat all day in car port. Opened driver door and would not latch closed. Lock would not operate. Had to drive holding the door shut. Finally got home and repeatedly worked lock plunger to get in lock position. Door then latched and then would NOT open. Next day heated door latch thru side hole with heat gun to get to work. After sitting 2 hrs again could not get door to latch closed. Drove holding door closed. If lock will move door will latch but then can not be opened from inside or outside. Truck has had two recalls have been completed to fix issue. Still having major issue. In Midwest area.

The door latches on the F-150 become frozen when temperatures drop below freezing. There is no Manual maneuvers you can do to get the door to latch close once it is open. Thus, once the drivers side door is opened for the driver to get in on a freezing morning, the door will not latch close. This causes me to drive down the road with an open door, holding it closed while I make turns down the windy road. It is not until the vehicle and the latch thaw a bit will it secure itself closed.

Driver door latch fails to latch when it get cold outside. I was able to manually move the latch by sticking finger in latch mechanism to make it work. Drove and parked for 3 hours. Came out and door would not latch again. Seems like this is very common with no known fix according to traffic on the web. Ford is unwilling to fix.

Tailgate opened on its own, unexpectedly, while driving. This has happened several times recently. It could be dangerous. Canada has issued a recall to correct this issue. Why not the us? the fix appears to be easy.

The truck bed is weak; 40lbs dumbbell put a dent in the sidewall and this shows the potential lack of strength within the vehicle.
