A motor vehicle with a faulty door lock that malfunctions can lead to catastrophic or deadly injuries for drivers and passengers.  A car door may suddenly open while the car is moving and an occupant may be thrown onto the road and into incoming traffic.  Faulty door latches may result in serious injuries, including broken bones, spinal cord injuries, and head injuries.

Defective Car Door Latch Recalls

Many auto manufacturers have recalled cars for defective door latches. In 2005, Ford Motor Company recalled 359,000 Ford Focus cars produced in 2000-2002 because of possible door latch defects. The auto making giant was concerned that a rear door latch would accumulate corrosion buildup, which could prevent a door from opening, closing, or staying shut. The recalled Ford Focus cars had been sold in 20 U.S. states, including Pennsylvania.
