The passenger door won’t latch when I open it. Then won’t latch to close. And my rear camera traffic warning randomly goes off without nothing being in the way annoying to say the least……. Please help.

Door lock in freezing temperatures, the door locking mechanism can become inoperable (the door will not unlock and you cannot enter or exit the vehicle using that door). The door fails to unlock using manual key, auto unlock with keyfob in hand, pressing the button on the handle or entering the security code. Sometimes after a few attempts, you will be able to open the door despite the lock pin at the top of the down frame is still down. However, once in the vehicle, you will not be able to get back out until the vehicle is warm. This is a risk in case of accident or fire. The issue is currently being diagnosed by dealership. No other warnings. Only happens in freezing temperatures (in my case temps in the mid-teens and below).

Despite several recalls dealing the the doors freezing open due to water intrusion in the door latch cables, my left rear door froze open (again) last year the right rear door froze open. At both times the door had to be secured with a ratchet strap to take for repairs. Ford is unwilling this time to repair this defect at no cost. I can't be the only person with this safety issue. It gets cold in montana, I shudder to think what would happen if a passenger fell out because the door won't latch or suddenly opened in the winter.

2010 Ford F-150. Consumer writes in regards to a complaint with vehicle dealership . The consumer stated in January 2012, he started to hear an incessant high pitched squeaking noise coming from the rear driver's side of the vehicle. The dealer informed the consumer the squeaking noise was coming from the tailgate latch assembly on the driver's side. The dealer stated they lubricated both sides and was road tested and the noise was gone. The service rep, then gave the consumer a tube of silicone that was used primarily for brake components and informed the consumer, if the noise returned, lubricate the tailgate latch. For awhile, there was no noise coming from the vehicle. Approximately two weeks later, the noise had returned. The consumer went to another dealer, to have the vehicle inspected. The dealer informed the consumer, that the previous dealer provided him with the wrong type of lubricant and the dealer reassured him the problem had been resolved. However, two months later, the noise had returned again. The consumer returned to the dealer again, where they chose to lubricate the tailgate latch assembly for the third time. The consumer stated he had other issues with the vehicle that were corrected, such as the right rear shock, the transmission slip yoke, a loose fuel door and a rattling noise in the driver's side door panel.
