I had no problems with this vehicle until December 2013 when I discovered that I could not open the right side rear door. In November 2014 the same thing happened to the left rear door. I obtained a repair estimate from a local Ford dealer and was informed it would cost $700 per door to have the problem fixed. (broken cables inside door) the service manager informed me that he had a 2004 F-150 and the same thing happened to his vehicle. I also spoke to two (2) other persons who had the same problem wit their 2003 F-150's. in case of an accident I think this problem could cause deaths since any passengers riding in the rear seats would not be able to exit through the rear doors. I contacted the Ford Motor Company and was told no recalls had been issued for this problem.

We have a 2003 F150 supercrew with 39,000 miles. While washing the truck in January 2008, we noticed that all 4 doors are rusting/bubbling on the bottom of the doors. This truck is garaged and frequently washed in the winter to avoid this problem.

I purchased a left over 2003 Ford F-150 pickup truck at condit Ford in newton, New Jersey. I picked up the vehicle on Friday evening May 28, 2004 on Sunday morning at 8:00 when I bent down to pick up a piece of paper in my driveway I noticed that the under side of the rear bumper is rusted from several scratches, I walked around the truck and noticed several paint and body defects as follows: Rear bumper has several scratches and rust, tow hook is rusted, the left rear fender has cracked/rippled fiberglass in the section that is near the bumper, the left door has raised paint blemish and dent, the right door on the inside by the door latch is missing paint, the right rear cab door is defective - it bows out on the bottom of the door. When I called the dealership the sales manager stated that I must have caused the damage. I mentioned that who crawls under a new truck to see if the bumper is damaged and rusted and that with an all white truck it is more difficult to immediately detect damages. And that when a consumer buys a new vehicle it is expected that the new vehicle is new and not damaged.
