NHTSA Complaint #10574828 — 2011 FORD EDGE

"DOOR AJAR" WARNING LIGHT COMES ON, BUT DOOR IS SECURELY/PROPERLY CLOSED. THIS IS NOT ONLY A DYSFUNCTIONAL NUISANCE, IT'S A HAZARD AT NIGHT. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL FADE OFF WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING FORWARD, THAT'S EASY ENOUGH TO DEAL WITH......BUT IF YOU ARE BACKING UP THEY STAY ON! YOU CAN'T SEE OTHER OBJECTS/CARS/LIGHTS. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS ALSO STAY LIT IF YOU ARE SITTING IN THE PARKED VEHICLE. YOU CAN'T LEAVE THE KEY IN THE IGNITION EITHER BECAUSE WHEN YOU HAVE THIS "DOOR AJAR" PROBLEM THE WARNING BELL "DINGS" UNTIL YOU EITHER START THE CAR, OR PULL YOUR KEY OUT. FORGET ENJOYING LISTENING TO THE ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM, OR PROGRAMMING DESTINATIONS INTO THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM. JUST START GETTING USED TO THAT WELL LIT, DING, DING, DING! *TR
