THE BACK DRIVERS SIDE DOOR NO LONGER CLOSES. NO DAMAGE WAS DONE TO THE CAR, IT JUST STOPPED LATCHING. THE DOOR BOUNCES BACK INSTEAD OF CLOSING. CAR WAS UNLOCKED, OFF, AND PARKED AT HOME. *TR
THE CAR HAS BEEN IN SHOP THREE TIMES IN 3MTHS FOR REPLACEMENT TWICE OF CLUTCH DUE TO DUEL CLUTCH TRANSMISSION. AND IT WAS SOLD TO ME BY CARCHOICE IN NLR AR. WITH A RECALL OF FUEL TANK. AND CLUTCH ISSUES.
THE HEADLINER AT THE TOP OF THE WINDSHIELD HAS COME LOOSE AND IS SEPERATING . LOOKS AS IF IT WAS NOT GLUED OR NOT ENOUGH MATERIAL WAS USED TO KEEP IT IN PLACE. DO NOT KNOW HOW FORD FASTENS THE HEADLINER TO THE WINDSHIELD AREA,BUT FOR IT TO COMES LOOSE AFTER ONLY HAVING BOUGHT IT NEW IN MAY OF 2018 I THINK IS RIDICULOUS , HEADLINER IS 90% TO 95% ALL THE WAY ACROSS.. THIS WAS DISCOVERED IN DRIVEWAY AND CAR WAS NOT IN MOTION WHEN TAKING A SUNSHADE FROM THE WINDSHIELD. THIS WAS FIRST NOTICED ON 06=03-2019.
