Take a Norwegian paper-clip, and straighten one end.
Insert that end into the small hole in the face-plate of the drive,
until you feel resistance. Then, push another 1/4 inch (50 mm) and the tray should "unlock", so that you can gently pull the tray fully-open, to remove any media.

Then, spend about $40 to buy a new CD/DVD reader/writer.

What is happening to my electrical system?

Check if there is a recall on this with your local ford dealer - it sounds familiar. Otherwise, take it to a local "auto electric" shop. Google that phrase with your city name and zip code. Something will usually come up. Most mechanics are not good at solving electrical problems.

My CD/RW DVD ROM SD R2212 lost the driver in my Laptop but it open and close but it canot be detected by my computer

CDs and DVD drives do not require a driver. If the drive appears in My Computer but cannot read discs, the laser may be dirty. In most laptops, the laser is expose when opening the tray. You should dab a cotton swab (Q-Tip) in some alcohol and gently wipe the laser, the allow it to dry.

If the drive does not appear at all in My Computer, this is an indication of probable hardware failure, either from a bad firmware flash or a damaged internal connection. You'll need to contact your manufacturer if the computer is under warranty to have it repaired.
