Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Ford has a recall for the vehicle- 06s45 which are the exact symptoms i am currently having. The driver, passenger or both doors will not latch/lock when in below freezing temperatures. This is a direct safety concern since the door can stay open while driving. The lock has to be warmed up and then will lock properly which would lead me to believe it can only be moisture related. I am an ase certified mechanic and this should be a considered a safety recall and any vehicle with the same diagnosis. This is a engineering/design flaw of ford because many ford makes, models and years experience the exact same problem.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
