    The passenger door wont latch on. I opened it to get out and as i closed the door it stayed open, i tried again and it did not want to work, i figured the latch might of gone bad and i checked and several fusion had recalls for this but mine did not.

Every time i go or call they take my number and that is it. So i just keep going trusting…

The door latch remained open and did not lock shut when closing the door. This resulted in the door remaining open. When researching the issue i found that a recall for the same problem had been issued on 2013-2015 ford fusions. I called the dealership and they…

    Door will not latch closed. The vehicle was stationary when discovered. It appears to be a spring or gear mechanism behind the latch that isn't working. Articles say this vehicle should be covered by recall, but manufacturer says it isn't. Noticing other complaints regarding door latches not latching, so this recall should be expanded. *dt*jb

    The drivers side front door latch failed, and so the driver's door will not latch closed. When driving, the door must be held closed by the driver (i resorted to tying a rope from the driver's side door handle to the passenger side in order to get the car home). When taking right turns, if not properly secured by the driver's arm, the door will fly open which could lead to the driver being ejected from the moving…
