Worked fine for about a week and started doing the same thing called and got appointment for that Friday got ready to take in and they started working again and have worked since but still concerned about this happening and us not being able to get out of the car period.

I own a 2010 Ford Focus. The back door on the driver's side will not open or close. The dealer was supposed to have fixed it but it is back to not working. This same thing has happened to my son who owns a 2008 Ford Focus. I think Ford needs a recall on the 2008 and 2010 Ford Focus.

I bought this car in 2010. A few months later my children said they couldn't get out of the car even though I had opened my door. I tried to manualy unlock this door and was unable. I made an appointment to get it fixed but on arrival at Ford service it had started working again. When it happened again I made the same appointment this time they saw the problem for themselves. They could not diagnose the problem but knew it was a safety issue and therefore changed the door actuator,latch and linkage. It worked for a while and then failed again along with two other doors. Ford service department was stumped. They then change all the door actuators,latches and linkage still not knowing what happened. Some more time passed and then an all door lock failure happed. Same thing all locks stuck in lock position unable to unlock with keypad, interior doors switch or manually. With there hand in the air unable to find out what was wrong they put all new updated actuators, latches and linkage in all doors . This worked for a much longer period of time and just recently jammed in lock position again . I brought it to my salesman and he wrote a report and we got another appointment to get it fixed again . The day before I brought it in it started working again and like they always tell me ' it has to me malfunctioning in front of us ". This has been an on going problem since I bought this car . I have had serious issues regarding people not being able to get out in a medical condition situation and my locks were stuck . Now my warranty is up in a few months and they have told me I will have to pay for parts and labor as soon as that happens again . I tried to get a warranty extension just on the locks and just until they figure out this ongoing safety issue but Ford motor company wouldn't here of it even mocking my safety concerns on the phone . Ford knows there is more to this problem!!.

I was not able to turn the ignition key in my 2010 Ford Focus {ses trim level} past halfway between the accessory and on positions, then could not turn it back to "full off" to remove key. Ford has known about this since the 2000 model year, but has not issued a recall.

My 2010 Ford Focus was purchased on 3/10/2010. Within the first week of ownership, the door locks were not working properly and the vehicle was taken to the dealer for repair. The problem repeated intermittently and the vehicle was taken back numerous time with the same complaint. Today, after having dealt with working/non-working locks on the doors, especially the driver's door for more than a month, we got the same response, "we need to see the vehicle when the problem is occurring. " how am I supposed to recreate the problem to suit their objection to making a repair? in checking further into this I found that this situation has existed since the 2000 Ford Focus. When is Ford going to be made to fix this so that we do not end up pay out nearly $500 for a 4-door lock assembly replacement? enough is enough! in an accident, someone is not going to get out of the vehicle and if there is a fire, possibly none of the occupants will escape. Ford is not willing to fix this. I think it is time that this safety matter was address by an agency that can make them deal with it once and for all. A ten year intermittent failure record is not a good one. It makes me wonder how many people have died or been injured dealing with locks that do not operate as expected? crawling over the center console to exit from the passenger's side of the vehicle is not practical for those of us who are elderly and/or disabled. I am both elderly and disabled. Now what?.
