NHTSA Complaint #10849863 — 2011 FORD EDGE

DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON WITH ALL DOORS CLOSED. THE DRIVERS DOOR IS THE ONE AFFECTED. THIS TURNS ON THE DOME LIGHT WHICH CAN CAUSE THE BATTERY TO DRAIN LEAVING A PERSON STRANDED. ALSO, IT CAUSES THE BRAKE AND PARKING LIGHTS TO COME ON WITH NO ONE IN THE VEHICLE. THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT ALSO PREVENTS THE DOORS FROM LOCKING WITH THE KEY IN THE IGNITION. THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON WHETHER THE CAR IS TURNED ON OR NOT. THE DEALER SAID THAT THEY HAVE TO REPLACE THE DRIVERS DOOR LATCH. I HAD FORD REPAIR THIS PROBLEM IN THE PAST. I HAVE IT IN THE FORD DEALER AGAIN TODAY FOR THE SAME REPAIR. I'VE UPLOADED THE RECEIPT FROM FIRST REPAIR. MY CAR IS STILL BEING WORKED ON AT FORD DEALERSHIP AND I DON'T HAVE THE RECEIPT YET FOR THE SECOND REPAIR. I THINK THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THIS VEHICLE.
