What owners wrote
We were involved in a four car crash. We were the third car. The traffic was a little heavy and stop and go. The two cars in front of us stopped fast and we did too. Then we looked in the rear view mirror and saw a honda odyssey coming at us at about 35-40 MPH. The driver slammed into the rear of our car. The car started on fire as soon as we were hit. I was in the passenger seat and I could see the flames and smoke coming out of the car. My husband jumped out of the car and I couldn't open my door.
Driver door ajar light has started coming on regularly even though all doors are shut. Sometimes it happens while driving and I get a "shift to park" warning. I then have to pull over and slam the door shut several times to clear it. It's becoming a hassle and lights stay on so it drains the battery. This is a defect and ford should issue a recall and fix this issue. It's a safety hazard as far as I'm concerned.
