Ford dealer has been unable to fix, after repeated service visits including involvement of ford factory technicians. Uncommanded opening most frequently occurs when shifting to reverse, releasing parking brake and/of shifting into drive. This has been going on for along time, months and months. Dealer performed work called for by 10/17 tech service bulliten, didnt fixit. Has replaced wiring harnness, relevant switches, checked and rechecked all connections and replaced master control module... None of all that worked.
