Description of the problem	I received a recall notice in the mail , notice# 16s30/nhtsa recall 16v-643 may, 2017 and in doing so i notified the vicksburg ford dealership here and scheduled a appointment to have my vehicle checked, and the part made it here tuesday 5/30/17) and it was repaired i was told. Now yesterday as i tried to close my door it would not latch so i took it back to the ford co to have it checked again to see what the problem was. I was told that there is no recall exists. Of course not it was in 2017 that i came out and it was suppose to have been repaired, but the problem is it has happened now. When i took my car out there at the time i was only following what i was instructed to do, now the want me to pay for it because the serviceman told me , he did not think ford would pay for it because it is not on notice at this time. They want me to pay $197. 50 plus tax and $110. 00 labor charge. I donot feel that this is right, because they was paid for doing the job in may, 2017 eventhough at the time i was not experiencing the problem at the time, and it is hapening now they need to correct the problem. I cannot ride around with a door the is not shut properly. Now i am still trying to find my receipt for the repair, and they do have a record of it because the secretary took a forlder with the service ticket back in the back to the serviceman but he acted like that was not the recall ticket. I am going to continue to look for my receipt but in the meantime i need to get this problem fixed. I donot feel that they needs to be paid twice when the problem is obvious today. It was a safety recall issued in accordance with the federal law and i am entitled to that safey recall act. Luckily i had just made it to my house and parked when i noticed that the door would not shut, i have only the one vehicle and it is driven everyday to work, errands. Not good. Thx you. .

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