My boyfriends mom was up north driving and the latch on the driverside door stopped working. She's 60+ and still years later has to tie her door close and climb over the passenger seat to get in the car. I can get it closed if it's accidentally opened just like an inch but the door absolutely cannot to opened any further.

I was involved in an accident on 11-30-19 due to my brakes not allowing me to stop in time and hitting a car in front of me. The car was stopped in the road, waiting to turn, and I tried to stop but I couldn't in time. It caused enough cosmetic (only) damage to my car that my insurance company is filing it as a total loss due to the cost of repairs compared to the value of my car. I will probably be forced to keep it though since I can't afford a new car, since I'm on a fixed income. My daughter is helping me to understand what we have to go through to keep it, to get a salvage title and then apply for a rebuilt title. I just wanted to report this in case my car will be included in the ford brake recall.
