I had them adjust *all* the doors on my '05. The effort required to open the doors was getting to the point of being classiffied as an aerobic exercise <_<

I'm having the same problem. All my doors need a good pull to open, most of the time I'm opening the passenger door from the inside...WTF.
Ahhh.....it has finally happened..
I have now had at least 2recalls for each of the 3 focus' I've had, 2000, 2003, & 2005..
*sniff*
What a day!

Ohh..yeah..
If you dont have a notice they wont do the recall for you...or can give you a big-time run around...

You shouldn't have to. All cars and trucks affected under warranty are logged in the OASIS system. Punching in your VIN brings up all the applicable service campaigns and recalls.
When we were bored waiting for someone to pull my car around, my Service Advisor did it for fun. I didn't have the recall notice with me, but it's logged there based on my VIN.
PS> If you do get this done, please note that when it comes to lubricating your door latches that they recommend a specific lubricant from Ford and not a generic lithium grease.
