VISIBILITY/WIPER, UNKNOWN OR OTHER, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
THE DOOR ADJAR STAYS ON WHILE DRIVING LEAVING LIGHT DOME ON CAUSING VISIBILITY PROBLEMS AT NIGHT. WHEN I GET HOME I ALWAYS HAVE A HARD TIME CLOSING MY DOOR FOR THE LIGHT DOME TO TURN OFF. MY BATTERY ALREADY DIED HAD TO BUY A NEW BATTERY AND THE CAR WAS PURCHASED BRAND NEW IN 2013! A BATTERY SHOULD NOT DIE THAT SOON! ALL BECAUSE THIS DOOR ADJAR. PLEASE HAVE THIS RECALLED. ALSO. I HAD THIS PROBLEM FIXED FOR A MINUTE WHEN I TOOK THE CAR TO GET CHECKED AT FORD WHEN IT WAS STILL IN WARRANTY! THEY FIXED IT FOR THE TIME BEING BUT IT STARTED TO HAPPEN AGAIN. AND MY WARRANTY IS OVER!

MY FORD EDGE INAPPROPRIATELY LEAVES THE DOME LIGHT ON, WON'T LET THE DOORS LOCK, AND SAYS THERE IS A DOOR AJAR. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE FOR MY WIFE AND KIDS WHO ARE THE PRIMARY USERS OF THE CAR. I SEE MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS AND AN ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE ADDRESSED

2013 FORD EDGE - DOOR AJAR SWITCH HAS GONE BAD IN DRIVERS DOOR. THIS CAUSES DOME LIGHT TO COME ON WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT. MY WIFE HAD TROUBLE GETTING THE EDGE BACK HOME AT NIGHT BECAUSE SHE COULDN'T SEE WITH THE DOME LIGHT ON. SEARCHING INTERNET INDICATES THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM FOR MANY NEWER FORD VEHICLE OWNERS. THE ALARMS AND DASH WRITTEN WARNINGS ABOUT A DOOR BEING AJAR (WHEN IT'S NOT) IS A NUISANCE AND BEGIN TO TRY AND IGNORE IT. UNFORTUNATELY, WHEN IT IS AJAR, YOU WILL NOT PAY THE WARNINGS ANY ATTENTION. THE NIGHT DRIVING WITH THE DOME LIGHT ON IS THE BIGGEST SAFETY ISSUE.

DRIVERS SIDE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT CONSTANTLY DISPLAY. INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL NOT DIM BECAUSE CAR THINKS DOOR IS OPEN WHEN LATCH IS SECURE. AND DOOR IS PROPERLY CLOSED. VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AT NIGHT BECAUSE THE INTERIOR LIGHTS DO NOT SHUT OFF. I FEAR IT COULD DRAIN THE BATTERY DEAD WHEN CAR LEFT IN PARK AND OFF. NUMEROUS SIMILAR COMPLAINTS. *TR

THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR SENSOR ALWAYS SAYS MY DRIVER DOOR IS OPEN NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES I CLOSE IT. BECAUSE THE CAR THINKS THE DOOR IS OPEN I CAN'T LOCK THE CAR DOORS THEREFORE I CAN'T GO ANYWHERE. THE SENSOR ALSO MAKES THE INTERIOR LIGHTS GO ON AND THEY DON'T SHUT OFF. IT MAKES IT VERY DANGEROUS DRIVING AT NIGHT. IT JUST STARTED HAPPENING AFTER I STARTED MY CAR AND LEFT FOR WORK.

IN 2015 WE TOOK OUR EDGE IN TO THE SHOP BECAUSE THE DOOR AJAR INDICATOR WOULD STILL BE ON WHEN THE DOOR WAS CLOSED. THIS WOULD NOT ALLOW THE DOORS TO LOCK GOING DOWN THE ROAD AND WOULD HAVE AN ANNOYING MESSAGE TELLING ME TO SHIFT TO PARK AS I CAME UP TO A RED LIGHT. THEY SAID THAT THEY COULD CLEAN IT AND THAT SHOULD FIX IT BUT THAT WOULD ONLY BE TEMPORARY AND THAT THEY WOULD PROBABLY EVENTUALLY REPLACE THE SWITCH. AGAIN THIS MONTH, JULY 2016, IT HAS STARTED AGAIN. THE "SHIFT TO PARK" MESSAGES AND NOT BEING ABLE TO LOCK THE DOOR AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON ALL HAPPENING AGAIN. FROM WHAT I HAVE READ, EVEN AFTER THEY REPLACE THE SWITCH, THIS DOESN'T COMPLETELY FIX THE PROBLEM AND THAT IT WILL START TO OCCUR AGAIN AFTER A FEW MONTHS. THIS NEEDS TO BE A RECALL. THE DEALERS ARE MAKING A FEW 100 BUCKS FROM EVERY PERSON THAT SHOWS UP TO GET IT "REPAIRED". IT IS GOING OFF RIGHT NOW, AS I TYPE THIS, AS MY WIFE IS DRIVING AND I AM AT WORK AND SHE CALLED ME.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
ABOUT 2 WEEKS AGO (AROUND JULY 8, 2016) I STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT COMING ON. IT WOULD SOMETIMES GO OFF ON ITS OWN OR WHEN I OPENED AND CLOSED THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR A FEW TIMES. THIS HAS PROGRESSED TO THE POINT TO WHERE THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT IS ON ALL THE TIME WHEN THE CAR IS ON. MY DOME LIGHT, BRAKE LIGHTS, HEADLIGHTS AND DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT WILL COME ON RANDOMLY WHEN THE CAR IS SHUT OFF, OF COURSE CREATING PROBLEMS WITH RUNNING THE BATTERY DOWN. AS I DRIVE DOWN THE HIGHWAY OR DRIVING IN TOWN, WARNING LIGHTS AND CHIMES CREATE A DRIVING HAZARD WHEN THEY GO OFF. I HAVEN'T HAD TO DRIVE AT NIGHT YET, BUT THE DOME LIGHT COMING ON RANDOMLY WILL DEFINITELY CAUSE A DRIVING HAZARD. THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED.

DRIVING DOWN A CITY STREET. STOPPED AT A LIGHT AND WHEN IT WAS GREEN WE GOT UP TO ABOUT 45 MPH, THE CAR STARTED SPUTTERING WOULD NOT ACCELERATE.
