1000 mi The passenger door did not close easily. They found it is not adjustable for that issue. The fit of the latches are determined by the assembly at the factory. Nothing could be done without body work by the body shop to help correct it. I decided to leave it alone.

turbocharged 6-cylinder automatic 4WD

3000 mi Frozen door locks and latches. nothing done yet. There was a TSB that covered up to the 2017 model year but didn’t apply to 2018 so the dealer couldn’t do anything under that TSB....basically just lube and keep an eye on whether it recurs. Of course then the weather warmed up so haven’t been able to replicate it yet. I did use Amsoil metal protectant which some people on the F150 forum have noted success with. 
30000 mi Door latch on front passenger didn't always latch. If door was repeatedly shut it would eventually latch. Dealer replaced latch assembly.
