Door latches inoperable. Cannot open from outside the vehicle. Passenger side front and both back doors. Back door passenger side door does not open from inside either.

Latch codes as follows: driver 02717a (new), passenger 224100 (or 224188 cant see it clearly). Left rear 22418a Right rear cannot open door at all to see latch code.

Only 3 out of 4 doors open, the outside door latches have failed since purchase in 2013. Have also continually failed/re-broke after being fixed. Car also does not unlock after being locked and inside door mechanisms do not unlock after being engaged.. huge safety issue. Also multiple times the a solenoid has to be replaced due to the car does not shift correctly and fails to accelerate safely (takes a over a min to go from 35-60) and even then it will not maintain 60 miles per hour going up a hill. This is a automatic vehicle, and it is unsafe, especially when exiting off a onramp trying to excel to posted speed limit to merge into traffic off the ramp. I have had multiple problems/issues with this vehicle since its purchase and it is a very unsafe vehicle.

My right rear door flew open while the vehicle was in motion as I was turning on to a city highway near my home. Luckily, I was close enough that I made it home safely, however the door wouldn't latch at all after this incident. When I called the dealership where I normally have my car serviced, they said there are many recalls for this type of problem with many Ford models, my model included, however my car did not qualify for the recall based on the VIN number and that it was one year older than the other models that qualified for the recall. They couldn't get it scheduled to repair the door latch for approximately two weeks, and obviously it was unsafe to drive without this problem being fixed. I ended up taking it to a different car service company who confirmed it was definitely a problem with the right rear door latch, and that it needed to be replaced.
