Ford has issued another recall for faulty door latches which can fail to secure a door leading to its possibly coming open while the vehicle is being driven.

The vehicle was not taken to be diagnosed nor repaired.
If those are fine then its the latch that is faulty since the jaws are open able to accept the striker.
The door latch itself will have to be replaced to repair the problem.
This means the striker is loose and has moved or is bent.
