STRUCTURE:BODY:DOOR
THE 2 MAIN DOORS ON MY TRUCK HAVE A CRACK IN THE METAL AROUND THE LOWER SECTION OF THE WINDOW AREA. THIS CRACK APEARS TO BE CAUSED BY STRESS. I FEEL THAT THIS CRACK WILL CONTINUE TO GROW WHICH WILL WEAKEN THE OVERALL STRENGHT OF THE DOOR. I HAVE SPOKEN WITH FORD AND THEY ARE STATING THAT THIS IS CAUSED BY ME SHUTTING THE DOOR. ALSO THE WILL ONLY COVER 50% OF COST. I FEEL THIS IS A DESIGN FLAW AND THEY ARE RESPONSIBLE. I HAVE BEEN WATCHING FOR THIS PROBLEM IN OTHE FORD TRUV\CKS OF THIS TIME FRAME AND HAVE NOTICED ABOUT 2-3 OUT OF 4 HAVE THIS PROBLEM.
