Description of the problem	Out of nowhere a week ago my back drivers side door became very difficult to open. I had the car in for service on 3/31 due to the wiring harness coming loose and had them check the door. I was told the clips that hold on the door panel were broken/missing and the door was slipping off. I am very concerned about this being a newer vehicle with no body damage and i submitted a nhtsa issue 11083236 earlier today for the wiring harness. I called ford customer relationship recall dept and spoke to mel and was told that there is no timeframe for them to review concerns, no way for me to escalate the issue, no way for me to have it reviewed by the department that decides when there should be a recall (and that the name of that dept was proprietary) my case#14515980 was given to me but they said that i cannot check on or validate that this is even revirewed with them. I am very concerned that 1. My wiring harness came loose and my car went dead on the road (luckily i wasn't on a highway) and 2. My door could just fall off without a cause. I paid for the repairs but have found recalls on other ford escapes for both of these issues, it just doesn't include my vin number and i would like it investigated to see if my vin should be included.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.

Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
