Reason for Recall
As stated by NHTSA
Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2011-2014 Fiesta, 2013-2014 Fusion, 2015 Mustang, 2013-2015 Escape and C-Max, 2012-2015 Focus, 2014-2016 Transit Connect, 2013-2014 Lincoln MKZ, and 2015 MKC vehicles.

A door that is not securely latched could open while the vehicle is in motion, increasing the risk of injury to a vehicle occupant.
