I WAS GOING DOWN THE ROAD AT 65 MPH AND MY HOOD BLEW UP AND PLASTERED ON MY WINDSHIELD AND WOULD NOT COME OFF WITHOUT PRYING IT. I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED. I HAVEN'T HAD IT LOOKED AT BECAUSE MY INSURANCE SHOULD NOT HAVE TO GET INVOLVED, WHEN IT WAS OF NO FAULT OF MINE AND THIS MODEL OF FORD NOW HAS A RECALL ON DOOR LATCHES THAT I JUST RECEIVED A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT ON THE MANUAL TRANSMISSION, SO NO ONE IS HITTING THE LATCH, THERE OBVIOUSLY SOMETHING CRAZY GOING ON WITH THE FORD FOCUS AND I THINK SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE ABOUT THIS BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED.
