Go to the lock on the door and with a screw driver open the lock arm that closes around the door pis t on the body this should work if not the lock spring inside has broken
Depends if its not lined up with the post upon closing or is the latch it self not latching, take screw driver and trigger the latch to lock position then use the handle to open it if that is working then check lineup on the post and see if the door hinges are worn allowing the door to drop if so replace the hinge pins.
SOURCE: 2005 Ford Freestyle compressor went bad, same mileage
Get an estimate from a Ford dealer. Your problem may not take all the parts that Goodyear wants to put in. The dealer has recall info and may work with you to keep a Ford customer. You say your compressor went bad, but that may be the result of a problem and not the cause.
You can also try independent shops rather than franchises. But you may not know of any. Sometimes I ask at Police stations if I need help for reliable service places.
SOURCE: where is the ac port for charging my 2005 ford freestyle
It is located to the passenger side firewall near the strut tower. There is a solenoid on top of it.
SOURCE: do I need to change transmission fluid on my 2005 ford freestyle
The high pressure filter and fluid are supposed to be changed at 60k intervals. Ford has a very specific oil for this transmission and the service fee will be $300 to $450 - mine was around $420.
No other car place will touch the CVS transmission in a Ford Freestyle and most Ford dealerships are clueless on thier maintenance and repairs. On most issues that crop up the first thing they want to do is swap it out - for $4000+.
The most common cause for this is the door opening lever on the lock assembly is sitting slightly between the open and closed position and will not allow the lock arm to operate properly. I am not positive, but I think the lever is cable operated by the inside handle. You may be able to remove the inside handle assembly and access this cable and slide it in and out to see if the door lock will open
