• Description:

  This is a Ford bolt listed under base number W709723 and finish code S424, used to mount latch assemblies such as tailgate, liftgate, and decklid latches. Dealer catalogs name it as a bolt or a latch mount bolt, and it appears in latch diagrams alongside parts like the Escape tailgate latch and the Focus decklid latch. Representative applications include Escape and Focus latch hardware; these are examples drawn from catalog references rather than a complete fitment list. The bolt clamps the latch body to the panel so it stays aligned with its striker and operates reliably. A loose or missing latch bolt can let the latch shift out of alignment, which causes a gate or lid that will not close cleanly, pops open, or rattles over bumps. Because latch position and security depend on the correct fastener, the thread, length, and head style must match the original. Confirm this bolt against your VIN or a Ford parts diagram before ordering. This is a multi-year service part that fits across the model years of the listed Ford applications.
