problem #13

An issue occurred with the passenger door latch. The passenger door of my vehicle unlatched to a secondary latching position at a speed of 70 mph, causing wind to rush in around the closed window and the door open indicator light and chime to activate. The door had been securely shut at a rest area 30 minutes prior to the incident. Although the subject of Customer Satisfaction Program 21N10, which requires the owner to pay a diagnostic fee to confirm an issue with the latches, Ford has not acknowledged this door latch issue via a safety recall.

The passenger side door comes open at low or high rate of speed. The driver side door does the same thing. My Mustang is a convertible so when the doors come open or ajared it is very frightening. This happens on the interstate or in the country or in the city. It is very dangerous situation. This happens at all speeds.

Passenger door opens when going over railroad tracks. I was traveling at only a few miles and I guess the tracks clicked it open some how. So now it seems that the door not only opens while driving at any speed but also if the car hits a bump or something on the roadway even at low speeds.. I was traveling on a county road.

This is a convertible and when the back windows are put down they will not go back up properly. Therefore rain gets in and ruins the carpets and interior. Causing mold and it to rust out. Even by hand adjustment they can not be properly seated back.. and this is everytime the top is put down.

The trunk will open while driving when it is cold outside, going over any bump, or even when I brake. Took it in to get it fixed 3 times with no results. Also, the rear shock absorbers keep failing; resulting in an uncomfortable ride.
