FORD FUSION JU 2002-2012 5DR RIGHT REAR DOOR CHECK STRAP OSR 1474246 A27200
This listing is for a European Ford Fusion (JU_) 5-door rear door check strap. The actual photographed component is marked “Ford OSR check strap”, identifying its donor position as offside rear / right rear / UK driver-side rear door. This is NOT a Ford Focus Mk3 part listing.
These are photographs from this exact eBay item. Please inspect the shape, mounting points, stop, condition and donor marking before ordering.
The reference vehicle below shows the correct European Ford Fusion body type. It is a 5-door Fusion, not the North American Fusion saloon and not a Ford Focus. Styling details can vary between production years and trim levels.
Reference vehicle photographs are public-domain Wikimedia Commons images. They are used only to identify the correct vehicle body style; they are not the donor vehicle.
The check strap mounts between the rear door structure and the vehicle body at the hinge-side door opening. It controls how far the door opens and provides resistance / hold-open positions as the door moves.

- Ford Focus Mk3 – the previous listing identification was incorrect.
- North American Ford Fusion saloon/sedan – different vehicle.
- Front doors – the rear check strap reference differs from the front application.
- 3-door Fiesta – there is no rear passenger door for this application.
- Any vehicle where your existing strap has different mounting points, arm profile or reference number.
- Any application chosen solely by registration year without checking the part itself.
The rear door check strap is a mechanical door-control component mounted between the door and body. As the rear door opens, the strap guides and limits its travel and provides resistance at the designed hold-open positions.
A correctly functioning check strap helps prevent the door from swinging freely beyond its intended movement and reduces uncontrolled loading on the door hinges, surrounding bodywork, wiring area and door edge.
- Rear door no longer stays securely in its normal open positions.
- Door swings open or closed more freely than expected.
- Clicking, clunking or knocking from the hinge-side area.
- Creaking or abnormal noise while opening or closing the rear door.
- Notchy, excessively stiff or inconsistent door movement.
- Excessive play at the check strap mounting area.
- Door appears able to open farther than it previously did.
- Visible wear, damaged stop material or looseness in the strap assembly.
For a component such as a door check strap, correct mounting-hole position, arm travel, stop geometry and door/body clearance are more important than simply finding a part that looks broadly similar.
- A matching Ford-manufactured component retains the vehicle's intended mounting geometry when the correct reference is selected.
- Matching the engineering/reference number reduces the risk of receiving a visually similar but dimensionally different pattern component.
- Reusing a serviceable manufacturer-designed component can be a cost-effective alternative to purchasing a brand-new replacement.
- Used-part savings vary by component and current new-part pricing; always compare like-for-like before purchase.
This is a previously fitted automotive component and will show normal age, storage and removal marks. The photographs form an important part of the description. You will receive the component pictured.
- Confirm your vehicle is the European Ford Fusion JU_ 5-door or a verified cross-application.
- Confirm you require a rear door check strap.
- For this photographed item, confirm the OSR / right-rear application.
- Compare your old component with all photographs.
- Check 1474246 and the A27200 engineering-number family.
- Check mounting-hole positions, arm profile and end stop.
- If any detail differs, contact us through eBay Messages before ordering.
This is a practical estimate, not an official manufacturer book time. Corrosion, damaged fasteners, trim access or previous repairs can increase the time.
Suggested tools
- Ratchet and suitable socket set.
- Suitable Torx / bit set.
- Screwdrivers as required.
- Plastic trim removal tools.
- Clip pliers where applicable.
- Ratchet extensions where access is restricted.
- Torque wrench for final tightening to manufacturer specification.
- Protective tape / cloth for painted door edges.
- Suitable support for the door if required.
Important: fastener head sizes can vary by build or previous repair, so identify the fitted hardware before starting rather than relying on an assumed size.
- Park on level ground, switch the ignition off, open the right-rear door and protect painted edges around the work area.
- Support/control the door so it cannot swing unexpectedly while the strap is disconnected.
- Note the exact orientation of the existing strap and photograph it before removal if helpful.
- Remove the necessary door trim/access section carefully without forcing clips.
- Release the body-side and door-side check strap fasteners while maintaining control of the door.
- Withdraw the old strap through the available door/access opening.
- Place the old and replacement components side by side. Check hole centres, arm profile, stop geometry and part/reference markings before installation.
- Position the replacement and initially install the fasteners loosely enough to allow correct alignment.
- Tighten fasteners securely to the appropriate manufacturer specification. Do not invent or guess a torque value.
- Refit any removed trim and clips, then slowly cycle the door several times. Check hold-open positions, noises, clearance, wiring and unrestricted door operation.

Where this item qualifies and eBay offers the destination at checkout, international orders may be handled through the eBay Global Shipping Programme. Destination eligibility, item restrictions and checkout availability are controlled by eBay.

The list can change. The destination and postage service actually shown by eBay at checkout should always be treated as authoritative.
We provide photographs, vehicle information, part references, position details and compatibility guidance to help customers order correctly first time.
Returns are handled according to the return policy displayed on the eBay listing and applicable eBay rules. Returned components should be sent back in the same condition in which they were received, complete with the supplied item/components.
Where eBay permits a seller to make a refund deduction because an item has been returned used, altered, damaged or incomplete, any deduction must relate to the actual loss in value and may be up to the amount permitted under eBay's rules.
Choosing a serviceable recycled component keeps an existing part in productive use rather than immediately replacing it with a newly manufactured component. Reuse can reduce waste, extend the useful life of existing materials and help make vehicle repair more economical.
Buying from an independent local automotive parts business also helps support the people involved in dismantling, identifying, cataloguing, storing, packing and dispatching thousands of individual components. 🚗🔧📦♻️
Parts are prepared for dispatch with the aim of protecting mounting points, electrical connectors and vulnerable edges during transport.
