Opening doors from the inside, little by little, both doors failed to open from the inside, had to leave window or windows open to stick hand out to open door from the outside. failure of these doors to function properly at some point if battery would give out would leave us locked in, but fortunately that did not happen due to us remembering to leave at least one window open. after some minor repair, found out plastic parts wore out and only one door can be unlocked from the outside. *tr | |||

Compliant is that through my insurance provider i was alerted to two recalls that should be at least looked into on my auto. the first is the blower on the climate control began to work erratically and now it does not work at all. meaning that my defrosting does not work at all. the other and more serious is that the drivers side door latch sticks at smacks against the peg and does not latch properly or at all, unless the latch is manually lifted. both of these are recalls for other t-birds but somehow mine slipped through. vin is 1falp62w6th111113. if these are such common problems why weren't all the t-birds recalled? i am looking at over 600.00 to replace these parts. which is irritating when ford should be fixing it's known problems. *nm | |||
