Hi all,
I know other threads have been posted about this issue, but I need to see if new solutions have arisen. I received my MX last Thursday, and yesterday the from driver's side door stopped latching properly. It took less than a week for my first hardware problem. I contacted service and they said they are ordering a new latch and it should be here in less than a week. In the meantime, I was wondering if anyone had a temporary solution.
I have tried the scroll wheel reset with slow manual opening and closing. I have used a screwdriver to manually push the latch into a latched position, then manually closed the door. When the problem first starting occurring, I could get the screwdriver technique to force it to latch and suck in the door about 50% of the time. Now, less than 24 hours later, the door will not suck in at all, no matter what I try. Please help if you have solutions.
So far since my MX was delivered, I have found chipped glass on the panel between the trunk and the FWDs, torn leather on the middle row seat, a windshield that has such bad ghosting that I see 3-4 dancing images of headlights, and now a door that doesn't work. Service has said all the problems except the ghosting will be fixed once the parts come in, so I give them credit for that; the SC wants to see an example of the ghosting I am having, but as I posted in another thread, my camera is doing a poor job of capturing the issue.
I am not red with rage yet because the MX is such an amazing car to drive, and most of my problems are cosmetic and can be fixed relatively easy. But now with the door problem, I am becoming less patient. I want to be happy about this, so if anyone has a suggestion for the door, please offer!
Thanks in advance.
