My interior door handle springs out and has to be force back in place. I'm told there was a recall and it was fixed. I'm not arguing that some time has passed but if that's the case why is this happening exactly as the recall state.

The first occurrence was the transmission slipping on acceleration and stopping or going up hill. Its been to our ford dealer where we purchased it and at first they felt it and said they fixed it but now everytime I take it in for that or the AC blower going off and on they say they don't feel or see anything it gotten ridiculous. In the freeway I-10 me and my son were trying to accelerate on and almost got hit by a semi truck the vehicle would not go fast enough. I wont bother with the dealership here in town they don't care. It has happened many times and now the air bag light goes off and on in temperature change it seems like. Our dealer fixed the door handle but now any rain the inside of our door fills with water and they say its not there fault and wont fix that either. Very disappointed with ford. Spoke to them about the air bag and they also say they wont fix. We have had nothing but problems with this 40000 SUV very dangerous to drive and its suppose to be a family vehicle....right we get no update or recalls info and our dealership is the worst I've ever dealt with

The new 14 passenger ford van is a passenger hazard for people in the back three rows of seats if someone is not in the second row. The rear door latches are next to impossible to reach from the third row. I am located at jet propulsion laboratory in pasadena, ca. The van is a vpsi leased van. How can I get the latch fitted with an electric opener? I am contacting vehicle safety and vpsi on this issue.

- What is wrong
- Ford is recalling 123,632 my 2007-2008 expedition and lincoln navigator vehicles. The door handle housing embossment retaining the bottom of the interior door handle spring on all side doors may fracture during normal customer usage. This can result in insufficient spring force to return the handle to the fully closed position. The handle may be loose causing a rattle or noise and the handle may not return to the fully closed position. This condition may also provide a delayed resistance when actuating the handle prior to opening the door.
- Risk
- In the event of a side impact crash, the interior door handle may cause the door latch to open increasing the risk of injury to a vehicle occupant.
- Remedy
- Dealers will replace the interior handle spring on all side doors. The recall began on march 5, 2008. Owners may contact ford at 1‑800‑392‑3673.
