On the way to work at 7pm, the back hatch began randomly locking and unlocking and opened slightly. after work the next morning at 8am, the back hatch unlocked and opened while driving on a busy road at 10mph. i contacted airport ford in florence, ky and they stated never hearing of this happening with another escape. *tr
On 6 different occasions door latches have been replaced, i've been locked in and out of my vehicle, my husband is disable and i had to climb through the hatch back to get doors to open. i am afraid of this vehicle, if it catches fire will i get out? i feel this is a death trap and ford is just soothing my feathers to keep me happy. also, i was sold a 2012 4x4 vehicle, however my vehicle is not a 4x4. the dealership said they go by vin, this one is wrong! *tt
