That weakness has caused scores of Ford owners massive loss and distress. Many have lost laptops, wallets and other valuables, some of them more than once. One former Ford dealership head toldthat about 10 to 15 owners of the affected Fiesta and EcoSport models would come to the dealership every month for replacement locks at considerable cost. The new locks made the cars just as vulnerable to a quick, easy break-in as they were before. Hence many suffered repeated losses.
Despite being aware of the “security weakness”, the manufacturer issued no alert to affected owners about the “vulnerability” and no warning not to leave valuables in their car boots, not until the issue became public via social media.
