all the latches are prone to failure except the liftgate, so far.
some have had the passenger front fail some one of the rear ones.
i think ford MAY have a bulletin on the passenger front but not sure.
i have had door jamb issues on other fords but not latches, i agree. but ford heavily upgraded the electronics in 2011, and that led imho to a number of failures not seen in 2007-2010 MYs.
it may be enough to fool the signal wire into thinking the door is always closed, it may not. but people have added a jumper to that wire and been happy with it.
