I have a focus sport 2012 auto
The front passenger door creaks like a rusty garden gate. Has anyone else had this with their car?I even hear a noise from the passenger side as i am reversing from the driveway. |

Not as such. If it is door seals your doors probably need adjusting in a little.
On the other hand I get creaking and popping noises from the piano black trims at the front and rear edges of the windows (outside) when the car has sat in the sun. Driver's door is particularly bad and this issue has been reported by others around the globe. Fix is to remove and put windscreen sealer between the trim and door frame but 2 dealers have so far refused because "It'll never go back on the same way". |

Not yet, i'd rather they fix it under warranty rather than them accusing me of doing something. I have it booked for a service next week. I called up today and no available service until next tuesday and no courtesy cars available until the 11th.

so much for the recent ford advert of a courtesy car with each service!
