| Description of the problem | The door latches freeze making the doors difficult to open but more importantly you can't get them to latch once they're opened. This is a serious safety issue. Ford appears to be aware of this and has issued fixes for previous model years. These fixes do not work and the problem is now with trucks built in 2018. |
