    The rocker panels are rusted badly. The rocker panel keeps the doors closed. When the rust gets to the point where the latch is the doors will not stay closed. It has not happened yet but it appears this will happen in the near future. With the rust this bad i am very concerned if there would ever be a side impact to the vehicle. I first noticed the rust in the late fall of 2017.

    The inside passenger door handle broke leaving the door unable to open from the inside. Ford states that it is not covered under the warranty. I said it is an absolute safety hazard as the passenger is unable to exit the vehicle in an emergency and any repair should be covered under the manufacturer warranty.
