Problems with 2008 Ford Focus ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Randomly the back doors will not open. they will remain in the "locked" setting. they will not open from the outside or inside. unable to manually unlock/open either door. sometimes both do this simultaneously and other times it will be one or the other. i bought this car new and this started happening a few years later. it was seldom in the beginning but now it is almost always that one or both doors will not open. if i carried back seat passengers often this would be a major problem as this is a small car and very little room available to crawl in/out from front seat. this could easily turn into an emergency situation on a hot day and a large person locked inside unable to get out. a while back the front door handle also began sticking. the door unlocks but the handle doesn't always feel like it releases all the way to allow the door to open. then when it does open, sometimes the handle has to be manually pushed back into the door before the door will latch. *tr

I purchased a '08 ford focus- 4dr sdn se in march '08 from mark martin ford in batesville, ar. july '08, doors locked & wouldn't open. since the original delivery of the vehicle, it's been returned to dealership 14+ times. vehicle has been out of service for repairs for a total of 209 calendar days (just from may 14,'10-dec. 31,'10). it is documented that the car started having problems before 12,000 mi. have been in contact with the ar atty. gen's off, ford motor company, ford credit, mark martin ford. started lemon law proceedings & had an arbitration meeting set in jan. '11. ford customer care was working on a buyback/replacement. ford wanted a second opinion. i took it to another dealership. ford made many attempts to repair the vehicle. i sent a demand letter to ford. they didn't attempt to do a final fix. instead they repossessed the car. i was only 2 mos behind & made arrangements w/ford credit to make a payment in dec. '10. i did. i have a letter from mark martin ford stating,"they have done all they know to do." i have a letter from ford stating, "although they admit to no wrong doing on their part, they want me to be a satisfied customer & are willing to waive the balance i owe" (yet it's on my credit report). the ar atty gen's off says i have a case. vehicle has been in mark martin ford on these dates for repairs/defects:7/30/08-rr door stays locked;7/30/08-rumble sound when driving;10/08/08-drs hard to open w/outside handle;10/08/08-rr dr wont unlock;10/08/08-starter hung after car started;10/08/08-dust leaking in rr & lf;3/16/09-rr;3/16/09-rr dr weather-stripping falling down;3/16/09-popping noise in rf&lf;3/26/09-lr dr wont unlock;8/07/09-lr tire sensor off;06/09/10-lfront dr wont open from outside;06/09/10-lr dr wont open;06/09/10-dr seal leaking dust in;8/21/10-lrear dr wont open from;8/21/10-dust coming in

The door lock, locks and you cant open them to get in or out of the car if you wont in or out you have to crawl through the windows. the front end of the car will not stay aligned eats up tires. head lights. we have had this car in the dealers many times they tell me that its normal. this car has been a lemon since the day i drove it off the lot but they would never fix the problems. *tr
