MY 2013 FORD EDGE WITH 48,000 MILES HAS A VERY ANNOYING DRIVER DOOR AJAR ERROR MESSAGE. THIS MESSAGE WILL NOT GO AWAY WHEN IT'S VERY OBVIOUS MY DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR IS CLOSED. MY INTERIOR LIGHT STAYS ON AT NIGHT TIME FOR UNSPECIFIED AMOUNTS OF TIME MAKING IT VERY DIFFICULT TO DRIVE. THIS ISSUE ALSO IS DRAINING MY BATTERY AS THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON AFTER CLOSING AND ARMING THE ALARM. FORD IS CHARGING 125 DOLALRS JUST TO LOOK AT THE ISSUE THEN ANOTHER 400-500 DOLLARS TO REPLACE THE PARTS WITH THE SAME REPORTED DEFECTIVE PARTS. TOTALLY RIDICULOUS ON FORD'S PART. I WILL NEVER EVER PURCHASE ANOTHER FORD VEHICLE AGAIN.

DOOR AJAR WARNING. THE CAR DOES NOT RECOGNIZE WHEN YOU SHUT THE DOOR. WHEN YOU START THE CAR THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON AND THE WARNING LIGHT FOR DOOR AJAR STAYS ILLUMINATED. ALSO, THE ERROR CODE SHIFT TO PARK DINGS EVERYTIME YOU TAKE OFF FROM A STOP. THE DOORS DO NOT LOCK WHILE THE CAR IS RUNNING AND IN MOTION. IF YOU ATTEMPT TO LOCK THE DOORS MANUALLY THEY IMMEDIATELY UNLOCK. WHEN THE CAR IS TURNED OFF AND LOCKED FROM THE FOB THE EXTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ILLUMINATED FOR AN EXTENDED AMOUNT OF TIME. THIS IS VERY DRAINING ON THE BATTERY.

STRUCTURE:BODY
STARTING IN FEBRUARY 2017, THE 'DRIVER DOOR AJAR' WARNING INDICATOR WOULD NOT TURN OFF WHEN THE DRIVER DOOR WAS CLOSED. THE VEHICLE HAD ABOUT 90,000MILES. NONE OF THE THREE PASSENGER DOORS OR THE TAILGATE HAVE THIS SAME ISSUE. AT FIRST THE PROBLEM WAS INTERMITTENT. I TRIED TO LUBRICATE THE LATCH WITH SILICON SPRAY AND THE PROBLEM WOULD GO AWAY FOR A WEEK, THEN COME BACK. IT PROGRESSIVELY GOT WORSE UNTIL JUNE OF 2017, WHEN THE PROBLEM WOULD NOT GO AWAY AT ALL. SLAMMING THE DOOR SHUT REPEATEDLY DID NOT WORK, THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR WARNING STAYED ON. BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE, IT'S HARD TO TELL IF THE DOOR IS REALLY CLOSED OR NOT. IF THE DOOR IS NOT LATCHED PROPERLY, IT WOULD BE A SEVERE SAFETY CONCERN. IN ADDITION, THE DOORS NO LONGER LOCK, NEITHER AUTOMATICALLY NOR USING THE LOCK SWITCH WHICH ALSO PRESENTS A SAFETY CONCERN. ANOTHER RESULT OF THIS PROBLEM IS THE INTERIOR LIGHTS DO NOT GO OUT WHEN THE CAR IS OFF AND THE DOOR CLOSED WHICH HAS DRAINED THE BATTERY ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS ISSUE AS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN, ESPECIALLY IN VIEW OF THE DOORS NOT LOCKING WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND THE UNCERTAINTY AS TO WHETHER OR NOT THE DOOR IS ACTUALLY CLOSED.

THE DOOR LATCHES USED ON THE 2013 EDGE (AND OTHER MODELS) CONTAINS THE SENSOR THAT DETECTS THE DOOR BEING CLOSED. IN MY INSTANCE, THE ISSUE IS WITH THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR. WHEN THE SWITCH DOES NOT DETECT THAT THE DOOR IS CLOSED, THE DOME LIGHTS WILL NOT TURN OFF UNTIL THE VEHICLE ACHIEVES A CERTAIN SPEED AND THE DOORS CANNOT BE LOCKED WHILE THE CAR IS STARTED. AT NIGHT, THE DOME LIGHTS STAYING ON HINDERS VISION AND POSES POSSIBLE INJURY AND DAMAGE TO ANY PEDESTRIANS OR OBJECTS THAT MAY BE IN THE WAY OF THE CAR WITH THIS ISSUE. I HAVE ALMOST HIT A TREE LEAVING MY DRIVEWAY SINCE I COULD NOT EVEN SEE THE DRIVEWAY. I FEAR HITTING PEDESTRIANS IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD WHILE ON THE WAY TO WORK, SINCE I LEAVE BEFORE SUNRISE. AS FOR THE DOORS NOT LOCKING WHILE THE CAR IS STARTED, THIS COULD POSE A SAFETY ISSUE TO THE OCCUPANTS OF THE VEHICLE ALLOWING FOR ACCESS TO BE EASILY OBTAINED TO THE INTERIOR IN THE INSTANCE OF CARJACKING, ETC.
