Ford TSB #SSM 50130
2021 Ford Escape
TSB Document:
Affected Component: LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES
- Summary
- Some 2020-2021 Escape/Corsair vehicles may exhibit a door ajar warning indicator or higher than expected efforts to fully close doors. Confirm all doors are fully closed and latches are fully engaged in primary catch position (not partially closed in secondary catch position). Be aware that doors will not fully close when lightly letting go of door or letting it swing closed from a short distance under its own weight. Customer/dealer need to understand that push/pull effort must be applied to doors while closing to fully engage latch and turn off ajar signal warning. If doors are still not fully latching closed (to turn off ajar signal), manually adjust door striker position to allow for proper alignment and engagement to door latch. Dealer may also need to slightly adjust door hang position to achieve same effect. Refer to Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 501-03.
