problem #1

Dec 222007

Focus

  • Manual transmission
  • 80 miles

Temps go below 25f. Have to leave doors unlocked. Ford tried once to fix with graphite been didn't seem to work. Car going back in again this week. If It gets Ice on truck or around truck it is a pain to break it loose to open as there is nothing to really grab ahold of.
