2018 driver door lock

[Mike Delaney]

I am having a problem with driver door not unlocking when the temperatures are cold. Below 30F. The mirrors open, other doors open but not driver door. Once warms up it works. Anyone have this issue? Is this a door lock actuator problem??

Altho there isn't much there...other than confirmation that it's not just you, I guess.

I don't know if you've gotten your latch replaced yet or not, but this is a common issue and Ford issued a TSB on the repair for dealerships to follow. Basically replace the door latch with an updated part. It seems to do with moisture getting into the latch and causing the micro switch to freeze up.

I am having the same problem. Can you tell me how you fixed yours?

Follow the instructions in the Ford TSB referenced in post #5.
