EQUIPMENT:
Ford and Volvo are recalling cars built with certain Kiekert USA (Kiekert) C1A door latches. A component
within the door latches may break as a result of excessive temperatures within the door, making the doors
difficult to latch and/or leading the driver or a passenger to believe a door is securely closed when, in fact, it is
not. A door that is not securely latched could open while the vehicle is in motion, increasing the risk of injury or
the risk of a crash. Ford and Volvo have recalls to notify their owners, and their dealers will replace all four door
latches, free of charge. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332 or Volvo customer
