STRUCTURE:BODY:DOOR
THERE IS A CRACK IN THE DRIVER-SIDE DOOR THAT IS COMING FROM THE INSIDE OF THE FRAME NEXT TO THE WINDOW AND IS STRETCHING DOWN THE SIDE OF THE DOOR TOWARDS THE REAR OF THE TRUCK. I HAVE CONTACTED SMITH FORD AND FORD MOTOR COMPANY MORE THAN 10 TIMES EACH. THEY EACH WANT TO TELL ME TO CALL THE OTHER. THE CRACK IS GOING TO BEGIN RUSTING SOON. I AM AFRAID THAT THE DRIVER SIDE WINDOW MAY SHATTER AS A RESULT OF THIS CRACK. I HAVE SEEN SEVERAL OTHER TRUCKS WITH THE SAME CRACK. ON SOME OF THESE TRUCKS, THE CRACK IS FOLDING IN ON ITSELF. IT PUTS MORE PRESSURE AGAINST THE WINDOW. IT IS MY FEAR THAT THIS WILL HAPPEN TO MY TRUCK WHILE I AM DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND THE WINDOW WILL SHATTER. ANY HELP YOU PROVIDE WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. THANKS. *AK
