DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT COMES ON BECAUSE OF A FAULTY SENSOR. ONLY COMES ON WHEN VEHICLE IS FIRST STARTED AND MAKES THE AUTOMATIC LOCKS USELESS. INTERIOR LIGHT STAYS ON, DOORS WILL NOT LOCK AUTOMATICALLY, OR CAN THEY BE LOCKED REMOTELY. SEEMS TO BE A VERY COMMON ISSUE WITH MANY FORD PRODUCTS.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT IS STAYING ON EVEN AFTER THE DOOR IS SHUT. THE INTERIOR AND OUTSIDE LIGHTS WILL STAY ON AFTER SHUTTING DOOR, CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO LOSE BATTERY POWER IF NOT DETECTED EARLY. IF IT IS DAYLIGHT THIS MAY BE HARD TO SEE. IT ALSO DOES NOT LET YOU ENGAGE THE ALARM, OR EVEN WORSE THE ALARM WILL GO OFF FOR NO APPARENT REASON, ALSO DRAINING THE BATTERY IF NOT DETECTED EARLY. I'VE ONLY HAD THIS CAR A FEW MONTHS, BUT HAS BEEN A PROBLEM SINCE DAY ONE. I THOUGHT IT WAS SOMETHING THAT I WAS DOING WRONG UNTIL I DID A LITTLE RESEARCH AND FOUND OUT THAT I WAS NOT THE ONLY ONE HAVING THIS PROBLEM.

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
I PURCHASED THE CERTIFIED USED EDGE IN OCTOBER OF 2013. I HAVE A MAJOR PROBLEM WITH THE VEHICLE IT HAS LOST ALL POWER ON ME TWICE IN THE LAST MONTH. ONCE WHILE SITTING IDLE AND JUST TONIGHT WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY. THE WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON AND I HAD JUST ENOUGH TIME TO PUT MY HAZARD LIGHTS ON TO ALERT THE VEHICLE APPROACHING MY VEHICLE. IT TOOK SEVERAL MINUTES FOR ME TO GET TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY AS I WAS IN THE MIDDLE LANE. I CALLED FOR AAA TO HAVE THE VEHICLE TOWED HOME. WHILE WAITING I TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF. JUST AS THE TOW TRUCK ARRIVED I TURNED THE VEHICLE BACK ON AND THE WRENCH SYMBOL WAS GONE. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE SO I STILL HAD IT TOWED. I WILL BE TAKING IT TO THE SHOP ON MONDAY MORNING. HOPEFULLY THEY CAN FIND AND FIX THE ISSUE. THIS SEEMS TO BE A VERY DANGEROUS ISSUE. I COULD HAVE BEEN REAR ENDED OR KILLED IN A HORRIBLE ACCIDENT. I HAVE BEEN SEARCHING ONLINE TO SEE IF THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AND IT SEEMS AS IF MANY FORD EDGE OWNERS HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM. THEN I CHECKED FOR A RECALL AND CANNOT SEEM TO FIND ONE. I WOULD HATE FOR SOMEONE TO BE SERIOUSLY INJURED BEFORE THIS PROBLEM IS SOLVED OR DEALT WITH BY FORD MOTORS.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
2 TIMES TODAY I LOST POWER AND MY CAR CRAWLED OUT OF THE ROAD. THE WRENCH LIT UP AND AFTER I STOPPED AND RESTARTED CAR IT WAS BACK TO NORMAL. FIRST TIME WAS PULLING INTO WORK THEN AFTER WORK ON THE WAY TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY ARE FIXING IT. SAID IT WAS A FAULTY THROTTLE BODY CONTROL MODULE. BEFORE THEY CALLED BACK I LOOKED THIS UP AND THERE WERE MANY STATEMENTS ON THIS HAPPENNING. IF I HAD BEEN ON THE INTERSTATE I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED. I DON'T KNOW WHY THERE HASN'T BEEN A RECALL BEFORE THERE ARE ANY LAWSUITS FROM PEOPLE DIEING.

ENGINE
WHILE DRIVING CAR JUST SHUTS OFF, CANNOT ACCELERATE . WRENCH LIGHT COMES ON. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS AND NUMEROUS FORDS HAVE SAME ISSUE. THEY ALL COME BACK WITH THROTTLE BODY REPLACEMENT. I CALLED FORD MOTOR COMPANY TO ASK ABOUT ISSUE AND TO SEE IF ANY RECALLS ARE OUT. NO WAS THE ANSWER. HOW CAN THERE BE NO RECALLS WHEN THERE ARE HUNDREDS (PROBABLY THOUSANDS) HAVING THIS PROBLEM. FORD ESCAPE, EXPLORER AND SOME TRUCKS DID HAVE A RECALL....WHY NOT THE EDGE. I'M AM ABOUT TO PUT OUT OVER 600 DOLLARS TO GET THIS PROBLEM FIXED. I BELIEVE FORD SHOULD BE MADE TO ISSUE A RECALL AND STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT. I'M JUST GRATEFUL THAT OUT OF THE 7 OR 8 TIMES THIS HAPPENED THAT NOBODY WAS HURT OR WORSE MAKE FORD STAND BEHIND THEIR CARS...[XXX] IT I'M SICK OF PUTTING OUT THOUSANDS AND GETTING CRAP IN RETURN. PS. DOWN BELOW WHEN YOU ASKED WHEN THIS HAPPENED....THERE ARE SEVERAL DATES NOT JUST ONE. INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

STRUCTURE:BODY, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
WHEN CLOSING THE DOOR THE DOOR LATCH DOESN'T LATCH PROPERLY AND THE WARNING LIGHT THE DOOR IS AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON KEEPING DOME LIGHTS LIT. DOOR CAN BE OPENED AND CLOSED 5,6 TIMES AND STILL THE SAME PROBLEM. SOMETIMES THE DOOR DOESN'T EVEN LATCH, NON OF THE DOORS LOCK, AND AT NIGHT ITS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE WITH DOME LIGHTS LIT. I PAID FOR THE REPAIR ONCE SHORTLY AFTER THE WARRANTY EXPIRED AND WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER WHEN THE PROBLEM STARTED AGAIN THERE WAS NOTHING THAT THEY COULD DO AND I WOULD NEED TO PAY TO HAVE IT FIXED. I SO MAD I'M READY TO TRADE THE CAR IN ON A TOYOTA. TO MAKE THE ISSUE WORSE IS EVERY CAR YOU'VE MADE SINCE I BOUGHT THIS HAS HAD DOOR LATCH RECALLS. MY BOYFRIEND JUST GOT A RECALL (15S16) FOR HIS 2013 FUSION AND HE HAS NEVER HAD AN ISSUE WITH HIS DOORS. I'M JUST WAITING FOR THE DOOR TO COME OPEN AGAIN WHILE I'M DRIVING. [XXX] DATE ENTERED IS THE LAST TIME IT HAPPENED. IT DOES THIS ON A DAILY BASIS. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
