Ford Focus Rear Door Lock Jammed

On occasion and generally those occasions are the worst times it s stuck and will not open.

Ford focus rear door lock jammed. Car door lock actuators are designed to lock and unlock a door without the effort of pulling on a cable and rod. In some cars the door lock actuator is positioned below the latch. If it is locked and closed you will have to pull the top portion of the plastic trim away from the liftgate it is held in place by metal retaining clips on top and four screws on the bottom if you can open remove the. I have an intermittent issue with the rear passenger door on my 2009 flex limited.

2002 ford escape liftgate wont lock unlock had same problem on ford escape could not unlock the rear liftgate or window if you can open you are in better luck. Could someone take a moment to get a photo of the top half on the hatch door itself of the latch on the car and post it. A rod connects the actuator to the latch and another rod connects the latch to the knob that sticks up out of the top of the door. I mean it is jammed as if it is bolted to the car.

Just crawled in back and looked at it. There is a recall on the 2005 focus door locks but not the 2007. Like something isn t initiating the latch. It won t open from outside or inside.

The child lock is not on. I m not going to have a chance to work on it for a couple of hours but it s killing me. This is a safety issue because our kids can just open the rear door because you have no ability to lock the door with the child safety lock feature. Just a note for all the strap does not move.
