door cracks

Well after waiting 2 months I finally got an answer about Ford fixing my cracked drivers door.since it is out of base warr. Ford does not feel it is their problem. so here I sit with a truck with 57000 miles and a cracked door.I even mentioned the tib but as the ford cust.service rep.pointed out it only applies to trucks still under the 3/36 warr.

door cracks

hi,

i have been searching various F150 forums & message boards to see if anyone else was having this same problem. finally i have found someone who is!

we recently had our truck into the ford dealership for this same problem. but we had cracks in both the drivers & passenger doors. they fixed the problem & supposedly put in some metal peices inside the door to help strengthen that area.. well after less then 6 months they are doing it again.

our ford dealer's body shop said they had known of the problem, but that our truck was the first that they were to do. i guess that ford has a service bulletin on how to repair the area & to use the metal peices i mentioned above.

now since its doing it again i'm wondering if it will ever stop, or if we'll have to have these 2 doors fixed & painted every 6 months:-X23
