WHILE DRIVING AT 65 MILES AN HOUR ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY MY VEHICLE COMPLETELY LOST POWER. THE VEHICLE LOST THE ABILITY TO ACCELERATE, STEER AND BREAK. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO GET IT TO LIMP OFF THE SHOULDER WHERE I TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF AND IT IMMEDIATELY RESTARTED. TRAFFIC WAS SLOW SO NO INJURY WAS CAUSED BUT NEXT TIME I MAY NOT BE SO LUCKY. MY LOCAL FORD DEALER IS TRYING TO TELL ME THAT IT IS A POWER STEERING PROBLEM AND THEY WILL NOT EVEN LISTEN TO THE FACT THAT THE VEHICLE LOST ALL POWER.

THE DRIVER'S SIDE "DOOR AJAR" LIGHT STAYS ON EVEN AFTER DOOR HAS SHUT AND BEEN SLAMMED. THE INTERIOR LIGHT STAYS ON WHILE SLOWLY MOVING, EVENTUALLY THE INSIDE LIGHT TURNS OFF BUT WHEN YOU STOP, THE CAR STARTS DINGING AND READS "PUT VEHICLE IN PARK" I BELIEVE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE WHEN LEAVING A DRIVEWAY OR PARKING LOT AT NIGHT, YOU CANNOT SEE ANYTHING AROUND YOU OUTSIDE BECAUSE OF THE INTERIOR LIGHT REMAINING ON UNTIL YOU REACH A SPEED OF AROUND 10-15 MPH. I'M WORRIED THAT I MAY STRIKE AN OBJECT OR PERSON BECAUSE OF VISIBILITY ISSUES.

ENGINE
I WAS DRIVING IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC IN THE FAR LEFT LANE WHEN MY CAR SUDDENLY AND WITHOUT WARNING LOST ALL FORWARD MOMENTUM. A WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON AND IT IMMEDIATELY SLOWED TO ABOUT 1 MPH. I HAD TO CROSS FOUR LANES OF TRAFFIC AND WAS ABLE TO COME TO A STOP SAFELY IN THE RIGHT MEDIAN. I TURNED MY CAR OFF AND RESTARTED IT AND THE LIGHT WAS NO LONGER ON. READING ONLINE THIS SEEMS TO BE AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH NO RESOLUTION. FORD NEEDS TO ISSUE A RECALL IMMEDIATELY. BEING THAT THE CAR STOPS IMMEDIATELY AND NOT TO A GRADUAL STOP THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN OF BEING HIT BY OTHER DRIVERS WHILE TRYING TO GET TO SAFETY.

DRIVERS DOOR AJAR LIGHT WONT GO OFF NO MATTER WHAT I DO TO IT. CAUSING THE DOME LIGHT TO STAY ON WHILE DRIVING AND NOT BEING ABLE TO LOCK THE DOORS AT ALL. I CONTACTED MY LOCAL FORD DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME TO TRY CLEANING IT WITH SOME WD 40 AND IF THAT DOESN'T WORK TO BRING IT IN AND THEY WILL RUN SOME TESTS ON IT WHICH WOULD COST ME OVER 300 BUCKS AND THEN THEY WOULD GO AHEAD AND CHANGE THE DOOR LATCH WHICH WOULD COST ME ANOTHER 200 DOLLARS OR SO AND COULDN'T GUARANTEE THAT THE PROBLEM WOULDN'T COME BACK. A LOT OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS SAME PROBLEM FORD NEEDS TO STEP UP TO THE PLATE AND FIX THE PROBLEM.

THE DOOR AJAR WARNING STAYS ON EVEN WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED. AT NIGHT, THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON FOR 30 SECONDS- REDUCING VISIBILITY. WHEN DRIVING IN SLOW TRAFFIC OR AFTER MOVING FROM A STOP, VEHICLE BEEPS AND SAYS TO SHIFT INTO PARK, AND THEN VANISHES. DISTRACTING AND ANNOYING! MILEAGE AT 66K.

HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUES WITH BOTH THE DRIVER DOOR AND REAR PASSENGER (DRIVERS SIDE) LATCH OR SENSOR IMPROPERLY WORKING. BOTH DOOR LATCHES AND OR SENSORS MALFUNCTIONS MAKE THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT IN THE INSTRUMENT PANEL STAY LIT, AND MAKES THE OVERHEAD LIGHTS STAY ON. THE INTERIOR LIGHT STAYING ON MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO DRIVE AT NIGHT AND ALSO DRAINS THE BATTERY.

2012 FORD EDGE DOOR LATCH, FORD EDGE DOOR AJAR ALERT/NOTIFICATION - FOR THE PAST SEVERAL WEEKS THE NOTIFICATION SYSTEM THINKS A DOOR IS AJAR WHEN IN FACT IT IS NOT. THERE ARE DOZENS OF FORUMS REGARDING THIS VERY SAME ISSUE AND THAT DIRECT PEOPLE FILE A COMPLAINT WITH THIS WEBSITE; AS MOST BELIEVE FORD SHOULD RECALL SAID VEHICLES TO CORRECT THE MANUFACTURING ERROR THAT IS SO BLATANTLY APPARENT. WE HAVE SINCE BOUGHT THE LATCH AND REPAIRED IT. THE PART COST US $101.15. WE FEEL LIKE WE SHOULD BE REIMBURSED FOR THIS. I LOVED MY VEHICLE BUT HAVE REALLY GOTTEN DISAPPOINTED IN IT AND FORD AS A WHOLE.

IT STARTED IN MAY 2015 WHEN YOU CLOSE THE DRIVER DOOR, THE SCREEN WILL ALWAYS DISPLAY "DRIVER DOOR AJAR" AND SHOWING THE CAR ICON SHOWING THE DRIVER DOOR OPEN, AND ALL DOORS WOULD NOT LOCK WHETHER AT FULL STOP OR WHEN MOVING. THE DASHBOARD SCREEN WILL DISPLAY ALSO "SHIFT TO PARK" INTERCHANGEABLY WITH "DRIVER DOOR AJAR" WHEN THE VEHICLE IS RUNNING. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL KEEP ON FOR ABOUT 30 MINS WHEN IN MOTION AND WHEN THE CAR ENGINE IS ALREADY OFF.

THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR SENSOR LIGHT IS FAULTY. THE SENSOR LIGHT WILL NOT GO OFF AND THEREFOR THE DOORS DO NOT LOCK AND THE DOME LIGHT DOES NOT GO OFF. TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP AND AS SOON AS I TOLD HIM THE PROBLEM HE TOLD ME WHAT KIND OF CAR I WAS DRIVING. THIS TELLS ME THAT I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS PROBLEM. I FEEL AS THOUGH THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL AS THERE IS SOME DANGER THAT THE DOORS DO NOT LOCK.
