2015 Ford Escape Body & Structure Problems

Rear passenger door won’t latch. Appears to be a problem with the mechanism in the door. It remains stationary when the door handle is pulled.

During my last oil change, 12/23/2019, I was told the technician told he could not re-attach my "splash shield" due excessive rust where the shield fasteners are supposed to hold the shield in place. Approximately 10 screws cannot be re-installed due to rust. This shield if re-attached could have fallen off during operation causing unknown multiple issues including causing a crash.

My left back passenger door panel keeps pulling off the door and prevents the door from opening. I literally have to either pull the door so hard from the outside to get it open or climb in the back from the right back passenger door to pull the panel up slowly as someone is slowly opening the door from the outside.

When vehicle is placed in motion, the rear doors lock. Once locked, the persons in the rear seats cannot exit the vehicle on their own. This has nothing to do with the child locks.

1 mes que compr y me di cuenta que ya no cierra lo e trado en movimiento no a pasado ningn accidente.solo que entre ms ms se abre

I have been to ford 3 times trying to get help with an absurd amount of road noise coming from my 2015 escape. This has become a recent issue to the point where the back seat passenger cannot make out what the driver or front seat passenger are saying. After my 3 visits, ford has dismissed this problem with little interest.

The door panel falls off the door very easily and then becomes stuck. The door cannot open due to the panel catching on the floor of the car. This is dangerous to have a door that does not work. I brought my car to Ford to get this fixed and after having my car for 6 days, the next time I drove on the freeway it fell off again and has the same problem. I've seen multiple reports of this

Rear driver side door becomes stuck. On at least 3 different occasions, the clips attaching the plastic panel to the inside of the door break, causing the plastic to stick against the door frame and resulting in the door not opening. This is a serious safety issue!

The liftgate latch failed causing the liftgate to not properly close and be secured. We had to drive with the gate open as it would not latch. The vehicle has a recall for the door latches which are similar.

Recall 16s30 side door latch may break. Ford sent out recall may 2017. I have been waiting since then to get this recall completed.

For the second time, the plastic retaining nuts have come off of the splash shield underneath to come lose and almost causing an incident. No warning prior to the failure.

The door latch failed. This results in a door that will fly open and won't close. The vehicle was stationary at the time of failure.

Black paint fade-ing to white above front windshield.

Index finger of adult female slammed in driver's side rear door resulted in laceration requiring three stitches, crushing that turned tip of finger gray and eventually what appeared to be the entire layer of epidermis (outer skin) containing finger prints and nerve endings died and peeled away and took nearly a year to regain fine tactile sensation to finger tip (amazingly finger prints will regrow given time).

Door handles and locks recall. They sent us a recall notice about 6 weeks ago. We called to make an appointment and they said it would take about 2 weeks to get the part and they would put us on their wait list and call us.

Ford issued a recall (16s30) for the door latch springs which are apparently faulty and can cause the door to open at any time. We called ford and the parts won't be available until the 2nd quarter of 2017. I have a newborn plus do a lot of driving for work, I cannot drive this car for the next 6 months and hope that the door(s) do not fly open.
