ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
AFTER APPROXIMATELY 60,000 MILES THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR WILL NOT LOCK AND THE "DOOR AJAR' WARNING LIGHT AND ALARM WILL SOUND CONTINUALLY. THE VEHICLE CAN BE DRIVEN, BUT ONLY IN AN UNLOCKED CONDITION WHILE LISTENING TO THE WARNING CHIMES AND FLASHING DASH LIGHTS. THE CONDITION OFTEN LASTS A WEEK OR SO, GOES AWAY FOR SOME TIME AND THEN RETURNS.

TWO PROBLEMS:1) DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON - DOOR HAS TO BE SLAMMED SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE LIGHT GOES OUT, SOMETIMES LIGHT STAYS ON FOR ENTIRE 15 MILE DRIVE TO WORK. PROBLEM 2) SHIFT TO PARK LIGHT COMES ON- CAR IS IN PARK , MUST JAM SHIFTER FORWARD TO GET LIGHT TO GO OFF. SOMETIME MUST PUT CAR INTO DRIVE, MOVE FORWARD FEW FEET AND BACK TO PARK. BOTH PROBLEMS ARE INTERMITTENT BUT HAPPENS 8 OF 10 TIMES WE DRIVE THE VEHICLE.

DOOR AJAR SENSOR IS DEFECTIVE. THE DRIVERS DOOR CONTINUES TO TELL ME IT IS OPEN EVEN AFTER REPEATEDLY OPENING AND FIRMLY CLOSING THE DOOR. THE INSIDE LIGHTS STAY ON, WHICH IS A SAFETY ISSUE AT NIGHT, AND THE DOORS WON'T LOCK. I SPOKE TO FORD AND THEY WANT TO CHARGE ME 500 FOR THE PART.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR IS ALWAYS REPORTED AS AJAR. THE DOORS CANNOT BE LOCKED WHILE DRIVING, IF YOU MANUALLY LOCK THEM THEY ARE IMMEDIATELY UNLOCKED. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL SOMETIMES STAY ON WHICH MAKES DRIVING AT NIGHT DIFFICULT. IF YOU LEAVE THE KEY IN THE IGNITION AFTER PARKING, LIKE IN THE GARAGE, IT WILL RUN DOWN THE BATTERY.

DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT STAYS ON EVEN AFTER DOOR IS CLOSED. INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON EVEN AFTER DOOR IS CLOSED. DOOR SENSOR ISSUE. ALMOST WRECKED WHEN INTERIOR LIGHTS CAME ON WHILE DRIVING-THE DOOR SENSOR LIGHT CAME ON WITHOUT THE DOOR BEING OPENED. WE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE FORD DEALER AND THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT FIND THE ISSUE.

MY VEHICLE BEGUN HAVING PROBLEMS ON THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR AT AROUND 40,000 MILES WHENEVER I WOULD OPEN AND CLOSE THE DOOR. IT WOULD FLASH "DOOR AJAR" AND THE INTERIOR LIGHT WOULD STAY ON WHEN I STARTED TO DRIVE. ONCE I WOULD SLOW, THE DASH WOULD ALSO HAVE A "SHIFT TO PARK" WARNING FLASHING. THE DOORS WOULD NO LONGER LOCK WHEN I WAS DRIVING, AND I WAS UNABLE TO SECURE THE VEHICLE WHEN IT WAS PARKED. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WOULD REMAIN ON. IT TOOK MY LOCAL FORD DEALER ALMOST 2 WEEKS TO FIT ME INTO THEIR SCHEDULE TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT, AND IT COST ME OVER $500 TO HAVE IT REPLACED. THIS HAS BEEN REPORTED AS A COMMON PROBLEM IN THESE VEHICLES AND SHOULD BE TREATED AS A SAFETY HAZARD. IT WAS VERY DISTRACTING AND UNSAFE WHEN YOU CAN NO LONGER SECURE YOUR VEHICLE, ESPECIALLY SOMEONE WITH A CHILD.

THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON AFTER THE DOOR IS CLOSED AND THE ALARM SOUND COMES ON WARNING YOU OF THE DOOR PROBLEM. THIS HAPPENS ABOUT TWO TIMES A WEEK AND SOMETIMES TIMES YOU HAVE TO CLOSE THE DOOR ABOUT FIVE TIMES TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. SOMETIMES THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE CAR IS BEING DRIVEN AND I HAVE TO STOP THE VEHICLE TO RECLOSE THE DOOR.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
IN APRIL 2014 AT 20,000 MILES A SHIFT TO PARK NOTICE WAS BEEPING WHEN ENGINE WAS SHUT OFF AND VEHICLE PUT IN PARK. HAD TO KEEP FOOT ON BREAK AND JIGGLE SHIFTER TO GET SHIFT TO PART NOTICE TO STOP TO ENSURE VEHICLE WAS IN PARK AND WOULD NOT ROLL AWAY AND TO PREVENT BATTERY FROM DRAINING. WAS REPAIRED BY DEALER UNDER WARRANTY IN JUNE 2014. IN SEPTEMBER 2016 AT 47,000 MILES THE SHIFT TO PARK NOTICES ARE HAPPENING AGAIN. DEALER SAYS IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY AND WANTS TO CHARGE FOR DIAGNOSTIC AND REPAIR. OBVIOUSLY THE REPAIR PEFORMED UNDER WARRANTY DID NOT FIX THE ISSUE AND THIS CAR IS DEFECTIVE. I HAVE SAFETY CONCERNS THAT THE SHIFT TO PARK ISSUE COULD RESULT IN CAR ROLLING AWAY AFTER DRIVER BELIEVES THEY HAVE PARKED CAR.

IN APRIL 2014 AT 20,000 MILES DOOR AJAR LIGHT REMAINED ON WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE. WAS REPAIRED BY DEALER UNDER WARRANTY IN APRIL 2014. IN SEPTEMBER 2016 AT 47,000 MILES THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT IS BACK ON AGAIN. DEALER SAYS IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY AND WANTS TO CHARGE FOR DIAGNOSTIC AND REPAIR. OBVIOUSLY THE ORIGINAL REPAIR PERFORMED UNDER WARRANTY DID NOT FIX THE ISSUE AND THIS CAR IS DEFECTIVE. I HAVE SAFETY CONCERNS WHETHER DOOR IS ACTUALLY CLOSED WHILE DRIVING.

DOOR AJAR LIGHT AND ALARM BELLS REMAIN AFTER THE DOOR IS SHUT, EVEN AFTER REPEATED ATTEMPTS TO SHUT THE DOOR. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ON WHICH AFFECTS ABILITY TO SEE AT NIGHT. THE WARNING LIGHTS AND ALARMS ARE DISTRACTING WHILE DRIVING. THE DOOR STAYS SHUT BUT THERE IS NO WAY TO KNOW IF IT IS SECURE. THE ISSUE EXISTS AFTER ATTEMPTS TO REPAIR IT BY A MECHANIC.

PASSENGER DOOR AJAR ICON IS LIT ON THE BOARD AFTER I CLOSE DOOR AND DOORS NEVER LOCK, DRIVING WITH DOOR UNLOCKED. LIGHTS STAY ON ALL THE TIME,DRAINING BATTERY, SO I PULLED BULBS FROM CEILING TO SAVE BATTERY. WHEN I STOP OR PARK THE CAR, LOCKING THE CAR WITH KEY REMOTE SOUND TWICE AND LIGHTS NEVER SHUTS. I BELIEVE IS HAZARDOUS TO DRIVE THE CAR WITH DOOR UNLOCK.

I HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH THIS DOOR LATCH SENSOR ISSUE FOR THE DURATION OF MY OWNERSHIP ON MY FORD EDGE. I DON'T SEE HOW IT IS POSSIBLE THAT OUR VEHICLES MEET NHTSA STANDARD FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD (FMVSS) NO. 206, DOOR LOCKS AND DOOR RETENTION COMPONENTS. THE TESTING FOR THAT STANDARD WOULD HAVE BEEN DONE IN A LABORATORY, AND IT IS APPARENT THAT CONTAMINANTS OUT IN THE FIELD ARE MAKING THEIR WAY INTO THE DOOR LOCK ASSEMBLY AND COMPROMISING THE SENSOR - IT IS NOT A STRETCH TO CONSIDER THE LATCH ITSELF MAY BE DETERIORATING AS WELL. THERE IS NO WAY TO KNOW IF THE DOOR IS FULLY SHUT. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS COMING ON WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHTTIME FROM THE UNPREDICTABLE SENSOR. I JUST REPLACED A BATTERY 10/3/16, FAILED FROM THE SENSOR DRAINING IT REPEATEDLY, BOUGHT THE LARGEST CAPACITY OEM REPLACEMENT I COULD GET FOR IT FROM FROM THE DEALER. WHILE PARKED, EVEN FOR HOURS AND DAYS ON END UNTOUCHED, THE CAR WILL PERIODICALLY SENSE THE DOOR IS OPENED AND CLOSED (THOUGH IT HASN'T BEEN), AND THE PARKING/CONVENIENCE LIGHTING WILL COME ON AND GO BACK OFF AGAIN.

FOR THE SECOND TIME IN LESS THAN TWO YEARS MY CAR IS INDICATING THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR IS OPEN WHEN IT IS CLOSED. IT NOTIFIES ME CONSTANTLY USING LIGHTS AND DINGING WHICH IS VERY DISTRACTING WHILE DRIVING. EVERY TIME YOU TURN ON THE CAR OR STEP ON THE ACCELERATOR FROM A STOP OR SLOW SPEED IT STARTS DINGING. WHEN BACKING UP IT IS DINGING MAKING IT HARD TO DISTINGUISH WHETHER THERE IS AN OBJECT IN THE PATH. IT ALSO KEEPS THE DOME LIGHT FROM GOING OFF WHICH CAUSED THE BATTERY TO FAIL WHICH COST $162 TO REPLACE. ADDITIONALLY, THE FIRST TIME I PAID $120 TO HAVE IT FIXED AT THE DEALER. 'WHEN THE PROBLEM RECURRED I SEARCHED THE INTERNET AND FOUND THAT IT IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WHICH SHOULD BE RECALLED BY FORD. A SMALL INEXPENSIVE PLASTIC PIECE WHICH AN EXPERIENCED MECHANIC SHOULD BE ABLE TO REPLACE IN 15 MINUTES. "WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN" AND "HOW FAST WERE YOU GOING" DOES NOT FIT INTO A SINGLE DATE OR SPEED; THIS HAS BEEN ONGOING FOR A COUPLE OF YEARS AND OCCURS AT ALL SPEEDS.

LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES, EQUIPMENT:ELECTRICAL
THIS IS FOR A 2013 FORD EDGE SEL AWD MODEL, RECENTLY THE DRIVER'S DOOR AJAR INDICATOR KEEPS COMING ON , AND INTERIOR LIGHTS ON WITH IT, SLAMMING THE DOOR A FEW TIMES , SOMETIMES CORRECTS IT. BUT IT IS AN ONGOING ISSUE, AND SEEMS TO BE GETTING MORE AND MORE FREQUENT, VERY ANNOYING, AND IF IT DOES IT UPON LEAVING THE VEHICLE PARKED , INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON AND RUN DOWN THE BATTERY. WHILE DRIVING IT SOMETIMES COMES ON, AND UNLOCKS THE DOORS, BECAUSE IT THINKS THIS DOOR IS AJAR, WHEN IN FACT THE DOOR IS CLOSED TIGHT. FORD SHOULD RECALL AND FIX THIS ISSUE, APPARENTLY IT'S BEEN GOING ON FOR YEARS WITH SEVERAL DIFFERENT MODELS, AND THEY WANT MORE THAN $400 TO REPAIR THEIR FAULTY SWITCH ISSUE.
