Description
Ford is recalling certain model year 2013 focus and c-max vehicles built from November 16, 2012, through November 21, 2012; and model year 2013 escape vehicles manufactured from November 14, 2012, through November 21, 2012.

Safety Risk
The operator may incorrectly believe the child lock is engaged. However, the door may be opened from the inside, increasing the risk of injury to an unrestrained child.
Remedy
Ford Motor Company has authorized your dealer to inspect the left rear door latch and replace as necessary. This service will be performed free of charge parts and labor.
