Body problems of the 2011 Lincoln MKZ

Tl- the contact owns Lincoln Mkz. The contact stated that the vehicle door latch detach on the driver side. The contact stated that her husband noticed the door was ajar when attempted to drive and was unable to close. The vehicle was taken to dch Ford of thousand oaks dealer and was diagnosed that the door latch needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repair but was still at the dealer. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 100,000. Aw.

The door hatch is broken, , it is hard to shut and latch the door. The door although shut and latched has come open while the vehicle has being driven. This has occured several times. It is unsafe to drive this car.

When pulling out of driveway the front passenger door opened. Wasn't able to latch the door. I had to put a bungee cord to keep door from opening. The car isn't safe to drive. The vehicle will be towed to get repaired.

My wife got to the mall and tried to get out of the car and the door would not unlatch. She called me frantic asking what to do. She did not dare ask a stranger, so I told her to wait and I would be right there. She was very upset by the time I got there. -20 min. The door opened normally from the outside. Later I took the door apart and found that a plastic part of the handle that transfers motion to the door latch had broken. This seems like a poor design and/ or a poor choice of material. In a different circumstance or location this could have been a life threatening event. I believe the design or material should be changed before someone is injured or worse killed.

The latch on my driver's side door slipped. The door won't open from the inside & gets stuck open. There is an active recall of the same nature on other years, same make & model: Ford recall 15s16. Issue occurred when I was trying to open door.

The front drivers door will no longer open from the inside. This started on September 30, 2016 while I was on a road trip. I thought maybe it was a fuse or electrical problem. I started rolling the window down to open the door from the outside. We went to the Ford dealership and was told the part was back ordered by more than 700 parts. If we hold two parts of the handle at the same time we can get the door open. I have carpal tunnel and that is sometimes difficult. When I asked about a recall I was told not yet but the problem has been corrected in later models. If it is ever recalled we will get our repair money back. It has been several weeks and we are still waiting for the part. If I am in an accident or need to get out of the car in a hurry this is definitely a safety hazard. What if I lose power and cannot get the window down. I can not valet park. I was told and well as saw it on the internet that this is a widespread problem with the Mkzs and Ford fusions. This is a safety hazard.

Just over 5 yr warranty and only 39k miles of 50k warranty, when parked, driver's door locking system stopped working preventing driver from opening door to exit without rolling down window with extreme difficulty and/or inability in pulling outside door handle. To exit in nml case or in case of collision. Lincoln svc rep states it is a normal occurrence and will cost $480. 00 plus to repair because it is just outside of the 5 year. Warranty.
