I got the TSB done, and I noticed my front door locks fully extend into the door panel when the vehicle is locked. I never noticed this before. Is that something to do with the TSB or is that how all F150s come from the factory?

Well we've had minus temps and snow pretty heavy since Sunday night and I just left the truck with snow piling on it until
today. Didn't want to tempt fate and have an issue keeping door shut in the middle of a snowstorm.
So naturally the door latch itself is frozen on drivers side. Would have to force it open and obviously mechanism is frozen
so dealer appointment is finally here Friday and will keep it. Can't be much worse.
Had a discussion with the service rep who didn't seem too pleased when I was bringing up points from this forum (in terms of the fix not working etc etc)..lol
He said they've had very good success with the latest fix (I left that alone...) but I let him know the real problems would start if it didn't work...the truck has been out just twice in last 5 days
and it's been a real PITA..well no not just a PITA but a huge f**king inconvenience and abominable quality of product by a Co that all I hear on the radio are ads to buy an F150....

My 2018 F150 rcsb 5.0 4x was purchased 11/1/18 it just hit 1k miles as I have very short commute. In Nov. Seattle had some high 20* weather drivers door would not stay shut until truck was run for about 15min. to heat cab up. Last couple weeks here in Seattle again snow and 20* weather, again door no worky... My fix Bought a 19 year old Toyota truck with 180k miles for $1k so I had something dependable for driving to work and get more then 12mpg. The doors work great, no funny engine noises, tranny shifts great, heats up twice as quick on cold mornings win win for me. Busy work schedule has kept me from dropping truck off at dealers, but what are they going to do....
