MY DRIVER SIDE DOOR HAS OPENED TWICE NOW WHILE DRIVING AFTER BEING CLOSED SECURELY. I UNDERSTAND THAT THE 2015 MUSTANG HAS A RECALL FOR THE DOOR LATCH. I AM WONDERING IF THIS IS THE SAME ISSUE.

THE EVAPORATOR CORE ON MY CAR HAS A LEAK AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED, OUT OF WARRANTY AND WITH ONLY 4000 MILES ON IT, FOR $1800. THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED INCIDENT; FORUMS AROUND THE INTERNET ARE FILLED WITH HUNDREDS OF PAGES OF CONSUMERS WITH IDENTICAL STORIES. FORD HAS ISSUED A TSB ACKNOWLEDGING THE PROBLEM (TSB #: TSB18-2166, NHTSA ID #: 10143077), BUT HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL OR BUYBACK PROGRAM, DESPITE THE FACT THAT THOUSANDS OF CARS ARE LEAKING R134, A TOXIC CHEMICAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY HAZARD, INTO THE AIR. THIS IS ESPECIALLY TRUE IF CONSUMERS DON'T HAVE THE SPARE NEARLY $2000 TO SPEND ON REPLACING THE CORE, MEANING THE OLD ONE WILL CONTINUE TO LEAK INDEFINITELY.

WHILE DRIVING MY CAR, THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR WILL OPEN AND I GET A MESSAGE SAYING "PASSENGER DOOR AJAR". I HAVE TO IMMEDIATELY PULL OVER TO SHUT THE DOOR. THIS HAPPENS INFREQUENTLY, BUT IT IS STILL DANGEROUS TO HAVE A DOOR THAT YOU THINK IS LOCKED OPEN WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME ABOUT 4 TIMES SINCE I GOT THE CAR IN NOVEMBER OF 2019. *TR
