“2001 Ford f250 super duty pickup. Power door locks are both failing. Unable to open doors with out pulling up lock manually inside truck. Could be safety hazard during an accident. Ford will only replace for $400. The truck is only 7 years old. This seems to early for lock actuators to fail. Have read of many Ford owners complaining of similar failures on Ford webites.”
