ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
VEHICLE DOOR LOCK SENSOR IS MALFUNCTIONING INCORRECTLY CREATING DRIVING AND SAFETY HAZARDS, BELIEVES DOOR IS AJAR WHEN COMPLETELY CLOSED. VEHICLE ASKS YOU TO SHIFT TO PARK AND DOME LIGHTS STAY ON WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT CREATING A GLARE. DOORS DO NOT AUTO LOCK WHEN DRIVING WHICH IF A CHILD GRABBED A HANDLE, THEY COULD POTENTIALLY BE THROWN FROM THE VEHICLE. SECURITY OF THE VEHICLE IS COMPROMISED WITH THIS ISSUE, AS WELL AS A TENDENCY TO DRAIN THE BATTERY, CREATING ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES DUE TO FREQUENTLY NEEDING TO PURCHASE / CHANGE REPLACEMENT BATTERY.

DOOR AJAR INDICATOR IS HIGHLIGHTED. DEALER TELLS ME NOT COVERED BY MY EXTENDED OR FACTORY WARRANTY. TELL ME DOOR LATCH NEEDS REPLACEMENT. WHEN I GOOGLE KNOWN ISSUES WITH FORD EDGE GUESS WHAT IS THE NUMBER ONE RESULT? DOOR LATCH. WHY IS THERE NOT A RECALL ON THIS POTENTIAL SAFETY ISSUE?

DOOR LATCH SWITCH WILL NOT RECOGNIZE THAT THE DOOR IS SHUT. I TOOK IT IN FOR WARRANTY AND FORD SPRAYED IT WITH LUB. AND SAID IT WOULD FINE. BECAUSE OF IT EVERYTIME YOU BRAKE THERE IS A CHIME. YOU CANNOT LOCK THE DOORS THE POP OPEN AGAIN. DOME LIGHTS WILL NOT GO OFF AND BATTERY IN CAR WILL GO DEAD IF YOU LEAVE THE KEYS IN THE IGNITION. I AM CONCERNED THAT THE AIRBAGS WILL NOT DEPLOY IN AN ACCIDENT. I THINK THAT THIS NEEDS FURTHER INVESTIGATION ON FORDS BEHALF. IT IS A DISTRACTION DURING DRIVING AND ALSO A SAFETY CONCERN THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WHEN I HAVE KIDS IN THE CAR. I TRIED TO HAVE IT REPAIRED AND THE REPAIR FAILED.

DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON WHEN DOOR IS OBVIOUSLY CLOSED. IT CAN TAKE UP TO 10-15 SLAMS TO GET THE LIGHT TO GO OFF. ANNOYING ALERT TONE GOES OFF UNTIL IT'S CLOSED AND DOME LIGHT STAYS ON. ALSO, CAR WILL NOT LOCK IF DOOR DOES NOT REGISTER AS CLOSED. THIS PROBLEM HAS PERSISTED FOR OVER A YEAR, BUT ODDLY GOES AWAY DURING THE WINTER MONTHS. JUST NOW, MY WINDSHEILD WIPERS WON'T TURN OFF. I DON'T KNOW IF THESE ISSUES ARE RELATED, BUT IT ALL SEEMS ELECTRICAL IN NATURE.

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, STEERING
THIS IS NOW THE SECOND TIME I'VE LOST ALL POWER WHILE DRIVING. THE CAR COMPLETELY SHUTS DOWN, STEERING BECOMES UNCONTROLLABLE AND THE OIL PRESSURE LIGHT COMES ON. CAR IS AT THE DEALERSHIP AS I TYPE AND I'M BEING TOLD THE CAR HAS NO CODES OF WHAT HAPPENED. I'M NOT SURE HOW A COMPUTER DOESN'T REGISTER A LOW OIL PRESSURE LIGHT OR HOW IT'S NOT HARD CODED SOMEWHERE IN THE COMPUTER SYSTEM THAT THE CAR JUST CUT OUT AT 5MPH. THE FIRST TIME I WAS OKAY AS NO ONE WAS IN FROM OF ME. THIS TIME I ALMOST WIPED OUT 2 CARS IN A PARKING STRUCTURE WHILE ON A DOWN HILL RAMP. *TR

A VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME SLOWED DOWN AND WHEN I WENT TO TAKE MY FOOT OF THE GAS MY TENNIS SHOE GOT CAUGHT ON THE PLASTIC TRIM ON THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT NEXT TO THE GAS PEDAL.. I HAD TO PULL HARD TO GET MY FOOT OFF THE GAS. I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO THE FORD DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT ALL THE EDGES HAD THE TRIM AND THEY DID NOT SEEM CONCERNED. IT ONLY HAPPENS WHEN MY LEG WAS RESTING ON THE SIDE OF THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT WHILE HOLDING DOWN THE GAS PEDAL. IT HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES WHILE DRIVING ON THE ILLINOIS FREEWAY. THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME SLOWED DOWN AND BY THE TIME I GOT MY FOOT OFF THE GAS PEDAL I HAD TO APPLY THE BRAKES QUICKLY AND THE VEHICLE BEHIND ME ALMOST HIT ME. I THINK FORD SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO MODIFY THE TRIM IN THAT AREA. *TR

AFTER ENTERING VEHICLE AND SECURELY CLOSING DRIVER DOOR, THE DOOR AJAR SENSOR INDICATES THE DOOR IS NOT LATCHED. OPENING AND CLOSING THE DOOR SEVERAL TIMES USUALLY WILL EVENTUALLY RECTIFY THE PROBLEM. SOMETIMES THE DOOR AJAR SENSOR WILL TRIGGER WHILE DRIVING FOR NO APPARENT REASON. THIS HAS ALSO HAPPENED TWICE WHEN ROLLING UP THE DRIVER-SIDE WINDOWS AS THE WINDOW JUST REACHES THE CLOSED POSITION. *TR

DRIVER DOOR AJAR SENSOR FAILING. EVEN THOUGH THE DRIVER DOOR IS FULLY CLOSED AND LOCKED, THE DASH REPORTS THE DOOR IS AJAR. CAUSES DOME LIGHTS TO STAY ON, CHIMES TO SOUND, AND DRAINS BATTERY. CLEANING AND OILING WITH SILICON SPRAY HELPS SOME, BUT IS A TEMPORARY FIX AT BEST. FORD DEALER WANTS OVER $600 TO REPLACE LATCH ASSEMBLY. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE DOOR AJAR WARNING MESSAGE FOR THE FRONT AND REAR DRIVER SIDE DOORS WOULD DISPLAY ALTHOUGH THE DOORS WERE COMPLETELY SECURED. THE CONTACT ALSO INDICATED THAT AFTER TURNING THE VEHICLE OFF AND CLOSING THE DOORS, THE BATTERY WOULD BECOME DRAINED DUE TO THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS AND THE DOOR SWITCHES WERE CLEANED AND/OR REPLACED BUT THE FAILURE WOULD RECURRED APPROXIMATELY 10,000 MILES LATER. IN ADDITION THE CONTACT INDICATED THAT DUE TO THE FAILURE THE DOORS WERE UNABLE TO BE LOCKED WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WOULD REMAIN ON. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000.

A CONSTANT DRIVER DOOR AJAR ALERT WHEN THE DOOR IS NOT AJAR. WILL TRY TO CLOSE THE DOOR MULTIPLE TIMES AND STILL GET THE SAME ALERT. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL NOT GO OFF BECAUSE OF THE MESSAGE. THIS CAUSES A SAFETY HAZARD BECAUSE THE DRIVER WILL NOT KNOW IF THEIR DOOR IS AJAR OR NOT. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL REMAIN ON AND THIS CAUSES THE BATTERY TO WEAR OUT MUCH FASTER THAN NORMAL AND CAN CAUSE A VERY SERIOUS HAZARD FOR THE DRIVER AT NIGHT. *TR
