OHAP | April 18, 2018 through March 11, 2019 |
Affected vehicles are identified in OASIS.
REASON FOR PROVIDING EXTENDED WARRANTY COVERAGE
In the affected vehicles, water entering the doors in cold temperatures may cause the outside door handle cable to freeze at the handle end. Frozen water in the cable can cause the exterior door handle cable not to return to the home position holding the door latch open. Ford is offering this no charge service to customers that have experienced a door latching concern to perform robustness actions on the front doors of all vehicles and on the rear doors of crew cab vehicles, which will prevent water intrusion and door latch freezing.
SERVICE ACTION
If an affected vehicle has exhibited a frozen latch, dealers are to perform robustness actions to the front doors and crew cab rear doors such as sealing the doors and door latches, lubricating door cables and installing a wiper clip on the exterior door handle cable ends. This service must be performed at no charge to the vehicle owner.
OWNER NOTIFICATION AND MAILING SCHEDULE
Due to the large volume of vehicles affected by this program, owners of affected vehicles will be notified in three separate mailings. Mailing will begin the week of October 14, 2019, and is expected to complete by the end of October. Dealers should repair any affected vehicles that experience a frozen door latch whether or not the customer has received a letter.
