My 2007 ford fusion was purchased in 2011 and was financed, and I paid it off in december 2017. It since then only it has a 144,00 miles. It was purchased with lower mileage, of an estimation of 40,000 to 50,000 miles on it at final sale meaning it was a 2007 car, purchased in 2011, so that's a problem when before it had been paid off, and major problems of many. I would like a refund of a lesser equal to or equal value to my purchased car price from manufacture or dealership. The two recalls issued that I have not taken care of yet, and other problems with cheap made inside door handles broke easily, being hard plastic/metal, this makes getting out of my vehicle a major safety issues along with the other issues of airbags and brakes and other safety issues.

Right rear door electric door actuator jammed and door could not be open. Had to remove a three year old child from the right door side, removed inter door panel and al rear seat components, still could not release door latch which was jammed in the locked position. Took vehicle to lb smith ford lemoyne, pa . They had it for six days. They had to break the door lock actuator apart, which I have the old actuator and cable assembly. They had to order parts which they did not stock. They replaced door latch/lock actuator assy. And inner door handle cable. Total cost was $247.06 parts and $232.50 labor. My problem is that this is a safety issue since we transport young children. In an emergency how does some one get the doors open. Jaws of life?no signs of failure before this. Just failed picking up the children and not being able to open the right rear door.
