NHTSA Complaint #10691032 — 2013 FORD EDGE

MY 2013 EDGE IS NEW WITHIN THE PAST 2 YEARS AND IT IS CURRENTLY UNDER LEASE. THE DOOR AJAR NOTIFICATION IS BEING TRIGGERED CONSTANTLY WHICH IN TURN AFFECTS OTHER MECHANISMS OR ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS IN THE CAR. THE INABILITY FOR THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR TO CLOSE TRIGGERS CAB LIGHTS, THE DOOR AJAR LIGHTS, AND THE LOCKING OF DOORS. THESE ISSUES CAN OCCUR WHILE STATIONARY/PARKING AND AT VARIOUS SPEEDS WHILE DRIVING...AT NIGHT AND DURING THE DAY. THE CAB LIGHT BEING ON AT NIGHT IS THE MOST DANGEROUS FROM A DRIVING STANDPOINT, BECAUSE IT AFFECTS VISIBILITY TO A POINT OF WANTING TO TRY AND OPEN AND SHUT IT AT HIGH SPEEDS. I DON'T KNOW IF HAVING THE CAB LIGHT ON WHILE IT IS PARKED IS ENOUGH TO DRAIN THE BATTERY OR EVEN HOW LONG THE CAB LIGHT EVEN STAYS ON, BUT UNFORTUNATELY I'M GOING TO PROBABLY LEARN THIS THE HARD WAY AND BE STRANDED. ALSO, THERE IS DEFINITELY A RISK OF HAVING ITEMS STOLEN FROM MY CAR. *TR
