Vote: Yes (first winter)
MY: 2015
Final Assembly: Dearborn
Build Mo: 05/2015
Purchased: 09/2015
Model: 2015 Platinum 4x4 SCREW
Location: Seattle area
**Note that my truck suffered the lock issue last winter (Dec/Jan) during a cold spell. All parts were replaced -- locks, latches, cables -- and new grease applied per a then internal TSB-like recommendation. I'm not sure there was a formal TSB at the time for R&R. My dealership had the truck for three days, and the tech said it was rated as a 10-11 hour labor job but took much longer being their first. That winter, I only suffered locks that wouldn't release until temps warmed up. This year, AFTER said "fix", I get both inoperable locks -- which last week lasted for several days, without *ever* unlocking -- along with rear doors which won't latch shut once they do unlock.

2016 screw XLT 302a sport with body handles

I can't vote twice but here my info for truck #2 my rental from enterprise.
2015 XLT 300a Screw with black door handles.
6/15 I believe
Rear passenger door lock fails and front driver door fails to latch. Door locks only when freezing but driver door fails to latch at any temp! May be due to people slamming it for two years. For what its worth enterprise was well aware of issue and stated "all our ford trucks do that, it's only the fords though."

Voted "Yes", 1st Winter
2016 XL RCSB
Dearborn
January 2016
If temps fall below 30 degrees Fahrenheit, all locks freeze and can't open doors. I got the driver's door open once, but then couldn't shut it.
Once the temp is above freezing, all becomes normal.

Xlt sport crew cab built 02/16 in Dearborn. I live in southern Ontario and the truck lives in my driveway. Had several cold snaps, warmings, rain and snow so far this winter and doors have operated normally including tailgate.

How long do you think Ford has KNOWN about this?
Why in the world doesn't Ford come out with an Official response to this problem? Treating this as a one off and acting surprised isn't working!!
Ford in 2016 do you think this is considered an Acceptable Customer Experience?
I don't get it. I am okay with Mfg defects, but ignoring critical problems like this isn't acceptable. Ford's best solution, praying that the weather doesn't drop below 25 degrees or so. Hello FORD this is not a SOLUTION!!
