STRUCTURE:BODY, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
TYPICAL "DOOR IS AJAR" ERROR MESSAGE. UPON CLOSING THE DOOR, THE ERROR MESSAGE "DOOR IS AJAR" POPS UP AND THE DOME LIGHTS STAY ON WITH THE CHIMES RINGING. I ALSO HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE ERROR MESSAGE "SHIFT TO PARK". I BELIEVE THESE COULD BE RELATED. FORD DEALER REPLACED THE SWITCH ASSEMBLY BUT THIS DIDN'T SOLVE MY PROBLEM. THIS NEEDS RECALLED AS THOUSANDS ARE EXPERIENCING THIS SAFTEY ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE!

2012 FORD EDGE WITH 51,000 MILES. DRIVER DOOR AJAR WARNING KEEPS COMING ON WHEN DOOR IS NOT AJAR BOTH WHEN VEHICLE IS MOVING OR NOT MOVING. I CAN OPEN AND CLOSE THE DOOR SEVERAL TIMES AND SOMETIMES IT WILL GO OFF SOMETIMES IT WON'T. IT WILL EVEN COME ON 20-40 MINUTES AFTER I'VE BEEN DRIVING AT TIMES WHEN DOOR HAS NOT BEEN REOPENED AND CLOSED. IT EVEN CAME ON AFTER THE PASSENGER DOOR WAS OPENED AND CLOSED, DRIVER DOOR AJAR NOT PASSENGER DOOR AJAR. WHENEVER I STOP,THE SHIFT TO PARK WARNING ALSO COMES ON WANTING ME TO SHUT MY DOOR SO I HAVE TWO WARNINGS BEEPING AT ME. INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL NOT GO OFF UNTIL I START MOVING FORWARD SO I CAN'T SEE BEHIND ME BACKING OUT OF DRIVEWAYS AND STALLS AT NIGHT WHICH IS SCARY. I HAVE GOTTEN TO WHERE I JUST IGNORE THE WARNINGS AS MANY PEOPLE DO WITH THEIR CHECK ENGINE AND SEATBELT WARNINGS KNOWING MY DOOR IS CLOSED. BUT WHAT IF ONE DAY IT ACTUALLY ISN'T CLOSED AND MY DOOR DOES COME OPEN WHILE DRIVING CAUSING AN ACCIDENT AND INJURY? I DID PURCHASE THE PART AT A COST OF $210.37 AS FORD REFUSES TO PAY TO HAVE THIS FIXED SAYING IT IS NOT A RECALL OR SAFETY ISSUE. THE WARNING LIGHTS ARE SAFETY FEATURES BUT THIS IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE?

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
AT 46,000 MILES THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR SENSOR ISN'T OPERATING PROPERLY. WHEN THE DOOR IS SHUT, THE SENSOR THINKS THE DOOR IS OPEN. THIS CAUSES THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TO STAY ON UNTIL YOU GET TO MORE THAN 15MPH. IT ALSO CAUSES BEEPING FROM THE WARNING INDICATOR TELLING YOU TO SHIFT THE VEHICLE INTO PARK. THIS SENSOR IS PART OF THE ENTIRE LATCH ASSEMBLY & NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY AFTER 36,000 MILES. IT IS VERY DISTRACTING AS EACH TIME THE SENSOR THINKS THE DOOR IS OPEN AND YOU COME TO A STOP, THE WARNING INDICATOR BEEPS AND SAYS TO SHIFT INTO PARK.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR CENSOR WOULD NOT GO OFF DESPITE THE FACT THAT THE DOOR WAS ACTUALLY CLOSED. THIS CAUSED MY DOME LIGHTS TO STAY ON, THE CAR SYMBOL TO STAY ILLUMINATED ON THE PANEL, THE DOORS TO STAY UNLOCKED, AND THE WARNING TONE TO SOUND WHILE DRIVING. ALL OF THESE ISSUES OCCUR WHILE STATIONARY AND WHILE IN MOTION. I HAD THE PAR REPLACED AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR $387 AND AFTER ONE YEAR AND TWO WEEKS THE PROBLEM HAS STARTED TO REOCCUR IN THE SAME FASHION.

THE DRIVERS DOOR AJAR LIGHT GOES ON AFTER THE DOOR IS CORRECTLY CLOSED. THIS PROBLEM HAS GOTTEN WORSE OVER THE COURSE OF A COUPLE OF WEEKS. THE LIGHT NOW STAYS ON CONTINUOUSLY AND WHEN THE CAR SLOWS TO A STOP A YELLOW PANEL LIGHT TELLS THE DRIVER TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND MUST BE CORRECTED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
OCTOBER OF 2014, I PURCHASED A 2012 FORD EDGE. ONLY A FEW MONTHS OF OWNING IT THE 'DOOR AJAR' WARNING WOULD CONTINUE TO SHOW UP, EVEN THOUGH THE DOOR WAS CLEARLY CLOSED. THIS HAS STILL CONTINUED, ITS NOW NOVEMBER 2015. I WENT TO A DEALERSHIP AT ONE POINT AND THEY SIMPLY LET ME KNOW HOW MUCH IT WILL BE TO FIX, NOT ONCE DID THEY MENTION THIS IS A RECURRING PROBLEM. FORD NEEDS TO TAKE NOTICE OF THIS ISSUE AND ACTUALLY SHOW THEY CARE FOR THEIR CUSTOMERS. I HAVE RECENTLY REVIEWED MANY OTHERS COMPLAINING OF THE SAME ISSUE. THIS IS A HUGE RED FLAG THAT NEEDS TO BE LOOKED AT. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING MY CAR ANYMORE, WITH MY CHILD ESPECIALLY. THE DOORS DO NOT LOCK ONCE THE CAR IS IN DRIVE, THAT SCARES ME. ALSO SINCE THE DOOR DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE CLOSED ACCORDING TO THE COMPUTER, THE DOME LIGHT STAYS ON, MAKING IT HARD TO START DRIVING AT NIGHT. I HAVE ALSO BOUGHT A NEW BATTERY AND ALREADY IT IS DRAINED DUE TO THE LIGHT STAYING ON FOR ABOUT 20 MINUTES BEFORE TURNING OFF. WHEN I PURCHASE A VEHICLE I NEED TO FEEL SAFE ABOUT MY CHOICE AND AT FIRST I DID, I LOVE MY CAR BUT NO LONGER FEEL SAFE DRIVING IT.

DOOR AJAR WARNING COMES ON AFTER SHUTTING THE DRIVERS DOOR. I HAVE TAKEN THIS IN 2 TIMES SINCE I HAD THIS UNDER WARRANTY TO HAVE IT FIX AND NOW IT HAS HAPPEN AGAIN. WITH THIS PROBLEM THESE ARE THE OTHER PROBLEMS CAUSED BY IT. ' THE DOME LIGHT STAYS ON AND CREATES A NIGHT DRIVING HAZARD. ' THE DOME LIGHT STAYS ON AND CREATES A SAFETY HAZARD WHEN SITTING IN A PUBLIC AREA AT NIGHT. ' THE FALSE DOOR AJAR SIGNALS PREVENTS THE DRIVER FROM RECOGNIZING A REAL DOOR AJAR SITUATION ... VERY DANGEROUS. ' THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WHICH IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. ' FAULTY LATCH. THE CAR HAS ONLY 33000 MILES ON IT AND THIS IS THE 3RD TIME THIS HAS HAPPEN. THIS SHOULD BE RECALL BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT OR KILL BY A FACULTY SENSOR THAT PEOPLE WILL START IGNORING BECAUSE IT DOESN'T WORK.

ON FIVE OCCASIONS RECENTLY, MOVING AT NORMAL SPEED ON CITY STREETS, SUDDENLY LOST POWER AND WOULD ONLY CRAWL ALONG TO CURB. I STOPPED THE ENGINE, WAITED A FEW MOMENTS, AND STARTED AGAIN. IT FUNCTIONED NORMALLY. THE DEALER SAID ALL WAS NORMAL ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS. I SUSPECT IT IS THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY, BUT I CAN'T BE SURE. MY DEALER WON'T REPLACE IT IN SPITE OF ALL OF THE SIMILAR REPORTS ON THE NET. I CONSIDER IT TO BE TOO RISKY TO DRIVE.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
MY 2012 FORD EDGE HAS DRIVER AND REAR DOORS AJAR INDICATORS ARE ON THE DASH, CLOSING THE DOOR REPEATEDLY DOES NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM. THE CAR KEEPS TELLING ME TO SHIFT TO PARK. THE DOOR SWITCH IS A MODULE INSIDE THE DOOR. THIS IS BAD. WHEN YOU PARK THE CAR AND LOCK IT THE LIGHT STAYS ON EXPOSING THE INSIDE OF THE CAR. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND NEED TO BE FIXED OR REMOVED COMPLETELY.
