2010 Ford Focus Owner Comments

Both rear doors will not stay closed as the latches do not work. The doors will swing open when driving if not secured with a strap, making it unsafe to have passengers in the back seat. Other models and different years of the same model have had recalls issued for the same issue. I haven't taken it to be inspected as I cannot afford to pay $140 at the dealership for the diagnosis. I did not own the vehicle when the issue first occurred so I don't know if there were any warning signals prior to the issue appearing.

  • Automatic transmission
  • 100,000 miles
The contact owns a 2010 Ford Focus. The contact stated that the doors would not open automatically or manually. The vehicle was taken to the dealer numerous times for the failure where the dealer inspected the vehicle and advised that if the door locks were replaced, the failure would not be corrected. The manufacturer sent an engineer to inspect the vehicle. The engineer advised the contact that the vehicle did not have a failure but more so a maintenance problem in which the vehicle doors would not lock because dirt had built up between the locks. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 100, 000 and the current mileage was 20,000. The VIN was not available. Updated11/29/11 updated 01/30/12
