The Ford Fairmont Rear Door Striker firmly secures the rear door to the body and keeps the cabin secure, quiet, and weather tight during every drive. A small U-shaped metal latch bolts to the frame of Ford versions of the Fairmont and meets the door latch claw with a precise fit to stop rattles and avoid inadvertent opening even if the hinge bushings wear. The original Ford vehicles featured a simple Rear Door Striker made of steel. Unfortunately, this steel was prone to rusting over time. In addition, the design would loosen with time. Later editions of Ford vehicles transitioned to a Rear Door Striker piece that was zinc coated. As a result, they were much more resistant to corrosion and held their alignment longer than their predecessor. Nevertheless, both Rear Door Striker pieces mount and adjust the same way. Whenever misalignment happens, the owners just mark the old position, remove the screws, clean away wax, set the replacement Rear Door Striker loosely, close the Fairmont door to find the sweet spot, and tighten everything down. If you wipe away any debris and add a light lubricant twice a year, each Rear Door Striker will click crisply, allowing each Ford Fairmont door to close with ease.
