Ford Recalls Best Selling F-Series Pickups Due To Door Latch Issues

Do you drive a Ford F-series pickup truck? If so, yours might be one of the 1.3 million being recalled by the automaker. Ford is pulling what's been the country's best selling vehicle for decades due to a door latch issue that could allow the truck's door to open unexpectedly while you're driving, CNN reports. But that's not all — the latch can also prevent drivers from opening the door when they need to, according to CNN.

Affected models:

• Trucks sold in the U.S., Canada and Mexico
• A number of 2015 F-15os (pictured)
• A number of 2016 F-150s
• A number of 2017 F-150s
• A number of 2017 Super Duty pickups

CNN says Ford estimates it will cost $267 million to make the repairs and is not aware of any injuries or accidents resulting from the current issues.
