DOOR ADJAR. DOOR OPENED WHILE DRIVING. DOOR RANDOMLY UNLOCKS AND SETS ALARM OFF. HAS CAUSED A DEAD BATTERY. WILL LOCK & UNLOCK WHILE TRAVELING.

ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING ASSIST STOPED WORKING AND WARNINING MESSAGE ON DASH DISPLAY.FRACTURE OF REAR TOE LINK RECALL#20V072 HAVE NOT BEEN REPAIRED AS OF 8/30/2020

THE DOOR LATCHES DO NOT WORK I'VE HAD THEM REPLACED TWICE AND THE ELECTRICAL PANEL THAT CONTROLS THE AC DOES NOT WORK IT BLOWS OUT HEAT CANNOT TURN HEAT OFF BECAUSE THE TOUCH SCREEN DOES NOT WORK IT IS COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN AND IT FLICKERS ON AND OFF AND THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN ALL THE TIME BUT PERIODICALLY

POWER STEERING WENT OUT IN REVERSE. TURNED VEHICLE OFF AND RESTARTED POWER STEERING CAME BACK. WENT TO FORD GARAGE SOFTWARE AND STEERING HAD TO BE REPLACED. CAR HAS 82K MILES. FORD WOULD NOT COVER THIS UNDER THE RECALL.

DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WHEN SUDDENLY LOST ALL POWER STEERING WITHOUT NOTICE. ALERT SHOWED UP ON DASHBOARD. VERY HARD TO CONTROL ESPECIALLY AT SLOW SPEEDS. BROUGHT TO FORD DEALERSHIP AND THEY WILL NOT HONOR THE RECALL SINCE IT DOESNT APPLY TO MY VIN BUT EVERYTHING ELSE THEY RECALLED FOR MATCHES MY CAR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD FLEX. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 20V072000 (SUSPENSION) HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE RECALL REPAIR WAS NOT YET AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT CALLED LUTHER FORD LOCATED AT 3302 36TH ST SOUTH, FARGO, ND 58104, (701) 282-2350, AND IT WAS CONFIRMED THAT PARTS WERE NOT YET AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

THE STEERING WENT OUT ONE WEEK AGO. CHECKED ALL THE RECALLS IT MATCHES THE DESCRIPTION OF PROBLEM AND MEETS ALL THE TIMELINES BUT WAS SOMEHOW LIKE THE REST NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. DEALER IS PRESENTING ME WITH CHARGES IN EXCESS OF $2000 TO REPAIR. I HAVE TRIED TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE WITH FORD TO NO AVAIL. NO ONE CAN DO ANYTHING. THE VEHICLE IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND I HAVE TO PICK THE VEHICLE UP TOMORROW. THE STEERING IS NEARLY COMPLETELY GONE.

FORD RECALLED DOOR LATCH ASSEMBLY ON DRIVER DOOR AND IS NOT ACKNOWLEDGING THAT THE SAME ASSEMBLY IN OTHER DOORS SHOULD BE COVERED IN THE RECALL. WHY WOULD YOU COVER THE ASSEMBLY IN A DRIVER DOOR AND NOT THE PASSENGER DOOR. IF THE ASSEMBLY IS FAULTY, IT SHOULD BE FIXED REGARDLESS OF THE DOOR IT IS IN. THE SENSOR IN THE DOOR LATCH THINKS THE DOOR IS OPEN WHEN IT IS CLOSED, CAUSING THE DOME LIGHTS TO STAY ON AND THE WARNING TO CONSTANTLY SOUND UNTIL YOU CAN CLOSE IT AND THE SENSOR CATCHES. IT HAS BEEN HAPPENING ON THE PASSENGER DOOR FOR SEVERAL MONTHS.

THE BRAKES MAKE GRINDING NOISE AND SLIPPING HARD TO STOP MY BRAKE PADS AND ROTES PRETTY NEW WENT AND GOT NEW BRAKE PADS STILL SAME PROBLEM ESPECIALLY DURING HARDER BRAKING CAR NOT STOPPING THERE IS BRAKE FLUID AND EVERYTHING SEEMS TO BE IN TOP SHAPE BUT CAR WILL NOT BRAKE PROPERLY AND MAKE GRINDING NOISE
