What's the Problem?
According to the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), this recall affects:
- 2011-2014 Ford Fiesta
- 2013-2014 Ford Fusion
- 2015 Ford Mustang
- 2013-2015 Ford Escape
- 2013-2015 Ford C-Max
- 2012-2015 Ford Focus
- 2014-2016 Ford Transit Connect
- 2013-2014 Lincoln MKZ
- 2015 Lincoln MKC
A component within the door latches of affected vehicles may break making the doors difficult to latch and/or leading the driver or a passenger to believe a door is securely closed when it is not, NHTSA said. A door that is not securely latched could open while the vehicle is in motion, increasing the risk of injury to a vehicle occupant.
