2019 FORD TRANSIT Complaints

THE PLASTIC HOLDING THE HOOD PROP ROD BROKE WHILE THE HOOD WAS UP CAUSING THE HOOD TO COME CRASHING DOWN. I HAD NOT TOUCHED THE ROD. LUCKILY I WAS NOT LEANING INTO THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AT THE TIME. I WOULD HAVE HAD SERIOUS INJURIES IF IT HAD COME DOWN ON MY HEAD AND NECK. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY.

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

THIS IS NOT A CRASH. THE VEHICLE WAS PUCHASE IN AUG2019. EVER SINCE I BEEN TRYING TO GET THE SLIDING DOOR FIX. THE DOOR DOES NOT OPEN. IS BINDING, FROZEN. IT REQUIRES KNOWHOW AND ELBOW GREASE TO PRY IT OPEN. MY GRANDCHILDREN (AGES 7 TO 15) CANNOT OPEN THE DOOR. EITHER FROM THE INSIDE OR OUTSIDE. THE DOOR IS THE ONLY WAY OUT AND VIOLATES THE WARNING STICKER ON THE DOOR. ZECK , THE PLACE I PURCHASE THIS NEW CAR WILL NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. I HAVE FILE SEVERAL COMPLAINTS WITH BBB AUTO LINE BUT THEY KEEP TELLING ME THAT THEY HAVE NOT RECEIVE MY CCF CASE NUMBER FRD1930985. I HAVE SENT THIS SEVERAL TIMES. I AM GETTING TO BELIEVE THAT WHOM EVER IS WORKING MY COMPLAINT MIGHT BE ON THE FORD PAYROLL TO DISPOSE OF COMPLAINTS.
