Rear hatch wiring harness has frayed wires and can cause a fire there is rubbing against wiring harness from the rubber boot covering it. These wires are live and cause a fire and are always on due to connection to all rear electrical components. I found this out when trying to figure out why my rear hatch would not open unless unlocked with the key.

Hello the federal safety agency, I would like to create a vehicle complaint regarding the ford focus 2006 sedan zx4 that I purchased the vehicle september 20, 2017. While driving within a service road, the vehicle's stalled and stopped running while driving upon multiple instances over the same day of purchasing and through out the weekend of september 22 - september 30th. As a result, I returned the vehicle to the dealer of lansing power motors inc. For an inspection september 23, 2017. Upon completion of the inspection, the mechanics confirmed that "nothing was wrong with the vehicle" and suggested to purchase a new computer for the vehicle. On october 30, 2017 I was involved in a car accident which I think was due to bad electrical brakes which resulted in the vehicle being t-boned by another driver within a residential intersection. The vehicle continues to stall or stop completely while driving as of may 14, 2018. In addition, noticed that all lights on the dashboard displayed while the car stalled and during start-up of the vehicle. Uncertain about the car not being recalled, due to receiving a mailed notification regarding the recall of the vehicle from the original manufacturer. Can provide the name upon contact regarding the vehicle compliant submission of the form. Thanks for your time, consideration, and I hope that this information may assist you regarding the creation of a vehicle complaint.

The rear passenger side door lock does not lock. This is the side the baby carseat is located. All the other doors do lock/unlock. It happened suddenly without any reason. I have noticed multiple occurrences of this issue on internet forums for ford and ford does not have a recall or a mandatory fix but they need to as this is a real safety and security issue!
