Doors randomly fail to open from inside. Most of the time it is the rear doors and can only be unlocked from the master (front) release. It acts as if the child lock is engaged, but have verified it is not. I see this is a problem from numerous owners, so will have it checked at the next service visit. Just wanted to add my car to the other complaints.

I own a 2010 ford focus. The back door on the driver's side will not open or close. The dealer was supposed to have fixed it but it is back to not working. This same thing has happened to my son who owns a 2008 ford focus. I think ford needs a recall on the 2008 and 2010 ford focus.
