It sounds as if a bolt has come loose inside the driver's side door. It rolls forward and back with every acceleration and stop. It happened when I took my car into the shop to have them repair the clutch that had been recalled.

Our daughter's trunk on her 2015 ford focus hatchback will not open, there is no emergency release in the trunk space to release the trunk that is required by a 2001 law. Took the car to an auto body shop and they were confused and told us they could try to open it, but could not give us a guarantee. Ford dealership tells us there should be an emergency release, that we need to bring the car in.

I have not been able to get my vehicle repaired by ford per NHTSA 16v-643 because parts are still not available. I received the recall notice in 2016 and parts are still not available according to my local dealer! Do you know when ford will have parts to correct this safety recall?
