Thus leaving me with an almost useless vehicle when the dash does out.”
NHTSA complaint #11354329, filed 2020-09, 61,000 miles“For the second one time in a month my locking mechanism on my 2014 Lincoln MKZ hybrid. Ford is recalling vehicles of the same year for the same problem and the dealerships say my VIN number isn't part of it. 2 door latch replacements is 800.00. This is ridiculous when other vehicles the same yet make and model as mine are acceptable for the recall. I opened my door and now the latch won't stay closed. It opened while I was driving”
