Ford recall: Inside door locks broken
Ford is recalling 45,173 of its 2015 Fiesta, 2016 Fusion, and 2016 Lincoln MKZ vehicles sold or ever registered in the states of Alabama, Arkansas, Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Mexico, Nevada, Oklahoma, Oregon, South Carolina, Texas, Utah, Washington, Puerto Rico, American Samoa, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands (Saipan), and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
These vehicles' inside door locks have a component that may break and could allow the door to open while the car is moving. According to a NHTSA report, this can increase the risk of injury or crash.
Dealers will look at the door, and if a repair is necessary, they will replace all locks in all four doors at no cost.
Letters will be mailed to owners on Dec. 4. Owners of these vehicles can call Ford at 1-866-436-7332. The recall number is 20V-177.
