Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“While driving, the rear and side doors will pop. It doesn't matter if they're locked or unlocked. They do not come open just come loose. Very worry some. I do home child care. I also have 7 children of my own.”
NHTSA complaint #10466681, filed 2012-07, 50,000 miles“The side back doors to my Ford e350 12 passenger van keep popping loose while driving. It happens in all driving conditions, whether on the highway or in urban areas. It occurs on a daily basis about every 15-20 miles. I have to pull over to the side of the road and open both doors and re-close. Locking the doors does not help. I have been to the dealership 4 times for this issue and the problem still exists. The dealership has adjusted the doors and oiled the hinges and latches.”
