My passenger side interior door handle has just fractured, exactly as described in your the federal safety agency campaign id # 11v0490000. This was a recall of approximately 300,000 2009 and 2010 f 150's. When I enter my VIN on your site it does not come up, however I understand this is a potentially dangerous condition. Perhaps my production date falls outside of the recall dates, however my truck has the exact same safety issue, and only has 18,000 miles on it. Could you please advise me how to proceed, as I would like to have this corrected by a ford dealer as soon as possible. Thank you.

Our 2010 ford f150 is literally rotting away in the drive way both sides of the bed have rust through at 45,000 miles it started, the truck now has apprx 58,000 miles. We purchased a ford because they were only the one of the big 3 us auto makers that didn't take the bail out from the taxpayers & we previously owned one. We have a 2008 hyundia with 102,000 miles no rust or holes, 2011 chevy silverado with 60,000 miles and a 2012 gmc sierra 80,000 and no rust or holes. Ford has refused to repair the truck. This is a disgrace a truck with extremely low miles literally rotting away in the driveway. There will never be another ford in our drive unless ford steps up and fixes this. Our sons that own the chevy & gmc are young and alot of vehicles to purchase in their lives, they are disgusted with the ford also. Ford representative needs to see this truck!

Severe rust on rocker panels, doors and body frame on both sides of the truck

Filed Aug 11, 2018 · Body · 55,000 miles · MD

The front passenger side interior door handle broke, preventing the passenger from being able to open the door. In an emergency, the passenger would be unable to exit the vehicle without someone opening the door from the outside. I rarely have passengers, other than my preschool-aged son, who rides in his child seat in the rear passenger side seat. There is a recall for interior door handles for my vehicle's model year, but not for my VIN for some reason. Perhaps the recall should be expanded. The failure was noticed when a passenger was trying to exit the vehicle in a parking lot.

The rocker panels are rusted badly. The rocker panel keeps the doors closed. When the rust gets to the point where the latch is the doors will not stay closed. It has not happened yet but it appears this will happen in the near future. With the rust this bad I am very concerned if there would ever be a side impact to the vehicle. I first noticed the rust in the late fall of 2017.

Truck was brought in for minor rust on inside panels of back doors, where the door closes. Body shop stated that maybe the drain channel was blocked. Upon picking the truck up after repair I was told that the rocker panels on both sides were so rusted out they were beyond repair. They stated it looks like the truck sat in water for a period of time, I bought the truck new from a dealer in amelia oh 43011 I am the original owner. I have looked on the web and it seems this is common on ford trucks. I will cost me 4900$ to repair; the truck looks brand new and I have kept it in very, very good condition. I have contacted ford but they will not help, they stated no recall or warranty issues have been reported at this time. Why haven't their engineers corrected this problem?

Recently discovered major damage due to rust and rot of cab pinch weld at rocker panels on both right and left sides extending front to back. 2010, ford f-150, crew cab, 51,000 original miles. My complaint was formally addressed at the local dealership where purchased. They noted (vehicle is very clean......). My concerns were forwarded to corporate with response being 'out of five year warranty'. Having found myself in a dilemma I had an auto body technician view the damage and his advice was to trade the vehicle. The extensive damage is not the result of normal wear and tear. This doesn't take a body technician to recognize this problem is due to inferior product of poor workmanship.
