Just wanted to say thank you! Your video helped me fix same issue with my transit custom. Ford used exactly the same latch mechanism with slightly different mounting plate. Dealer repair was $1200. To this day they still get away with no mandate to recall this very dangerous & stupid design. Makes you wonder about the brand when they can’t engineer a simple lock mechanism.
Great video. My daughter's car door went last week. Easy to follow video made for an easy fix. Ford just announced today they are recalling the car now to fix the latches for free.
Thank you to your shared video. It saved me $300. My car had same problem after 5 yeras and out of warranty. I asked dealer to fix it after .They will chargd me $300 not include labor cost and tax yet. When I have time i will modify for the other 3 doors as preventive .
Thanks for your video. It saved me hours.and money. Only problem is that everything is working fine except the door can't lock now. Is there anything that i could have assembled wrongly?
