NHTSA not doing anything

Do you really think they would on such a small number of problems if they haven't done a thing over the years of the some 4.1 million Ford F-series trucks being driven on our roads with unsafe door latches?? The doors are known to fly open in an accident and even with a seatbelt on, can strangle an occupant.
Ford has done crash tests without doors on and some with them welded shut so to pass the tests.
And NHTSA has done nothing to alert the F-series owners of the unsafe vehicle they drive.

Just my two cents about 'big brother' helping us.
