1 Carrier/rack problem

Failure Date: 04/12/2019

My driver side door will not open from the inside. Thru extensive research I have found that this seems to be an issue on the Fusions years 2007- 2012 models. It seems to be that a crack forms in the handle causing the cable to come out of place. This happens when the car is stationary.

2 Carrier/rack problem

Failure Date: 04/22/2016

Cracking and creaking underneath when temp outside is above about 70 degrees, very loud, possible struts, when turning wheel left or right also very loud creak or pop. I looked online and there are 100's of these issues reported. This has to be a recall, safety issue.
