Just received my Bronco and have noticed drivers rear door is always ajar when I close it, and I get a dash alert.

This concerns me as I have a 6yo in the back.

It almost looks like the body was dented before paint and before assembly.

@Ford Motor Company can you help expedite a fix as this is a safety issue and door wont close properly. thx

I finally found the issue, does anyone else have this?

Is it fixable as it seems like a body manufacturing flaw on the assembly line?


(also attaching passenger rear door for comparison)

Looks like something you should take up with the service department. Looks like the door was slammed closed with the door latch latched or improperly adjusted.

i disagree with the door slam, now that i take a better look.

First the bronco doors are very light and could not bend this, also it is twisted too.

Additionally the body line is straight.

This is definitely a factory flaw
