2011 FORD EDGE Electrical System Problems

THE DOOR SENSOR IS CONSTANTLY INDICATING THE DOOR IS OPEN EVEN WHEN CLOSED AND SEALED TIGHT. THE INSIDE DOME LIGHTS REMAIN ON BECAUSE OF THIS AND YOU CANNOT SEE THROUGH YOU REAR VIEW MIRROR ESPECIALLY DURING NIGHT DRIVING. IN ADDITION THE LIGHT REMAINS ON EVEN WHEN THE CAR IS PARKED AND YOU HAVE LEFT CAR. THIS ATTACKS THE POSSIBILITY OF A BURGLARY. ALSO WHILE DRIVING THE DOME LIGHT REMAINS ON BECAUSE OF THE DEFECTIVE DOOR SENSOR AND THE DRIVER IS CONSTANTLY SLAMMING THE DOOR TO GET THE SENSOR TO SHUT OFF.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 10 MPH, THE INTERIOR DOME LIGHT REMAINED ILLUMINATED. IN ADDITION, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO LOCK AND UNLOCK ELECTRONICALLY AND THE DOOR AJAR ERROR MESSAGE DISPLAYED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 32,000.

ON MY 2011 FORD EDGE LIMITED I AM HAVING ISSUES WITH THE DOOR AJAR, LIKE MANY OTHER PEOPLE APPARENTLY. I SOMETIMES HAVE TO OPEN AND SHUT MY DOOR 20 TIMES UNTIL MY INTERIOR LIGHTS TURN OFF SO IT DOESN'T DRAIN MY BATTERY EVEN MORE. THE LOCKS WILL NOT ENGAGE WHEN MY DOOR IS 'OPEN' AND THE DOOR AJAR ALERT WILL STAY ON. THIS ISSUE IS GETTING WORSE EVERY TIME I OPEN THE DOOR AND IS A SAFETY ISSUE. PLEASE RECALL AND FIX.

MY DOOR AJAR LIGHT IS CONSTANTLY ON FOR THE BACK DRIVERS SIDE DOOR. IT CAUSES MY DOORS NOT TO LOCK AND MY LIGHTS STAY ON. IT HAS ALREADY RAN MY BATTERY DOWN AND IT CAUSES MY SECURITY SYSTEM NOT TO WORK. IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD!!! I HAVE CALLED FORD AND THEY SAY IT'S NOT A SAFETY HAZARD AND THERE IS NOT A RECALL.

DOOR AJAR WARNING - MY FRONT, DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR CONSTANTLY STATES THAT IT IS AJAR. THIS CAUSES THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TO REMAIN ON LONGER THAN NECESSARY, THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND THE DOOR AJAR WARNING REMAINS ON AT ALL TIMES. OTHERS HAVE SUGGESTED USING WD40 AND LUBRICANTS TO CLEAN THE SENSOR. I'VE TRIED THIS, AND IT WORKED FOR A FEW TIMES, BUT THIS IS NO LONGER WORKING.

DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ACROSS THE DASH AND DRAINS BATTERY. FAULTY LATCHES ON 2 DIFFERENT DOORS.

*FALSE "DOOR AJAR" WARNING LIGHT ON DASH STAYS ON WHEN DOOR IS FIRMLY CLOSED* THIS CAUSES: - INTERIOR DOME LIGHT STAYS ON - UNABLE TO LOCK DOORS WHILE IN VEHICLE - THEY KEEP AUTOMATICALLY UNLOCKING (WHILE IN ANY GEAR OR PARKED) WHEN VEHICLE IS ON - DOORS DO LOCK WHEN VEHICLE IS OFF, WHEN LOCKING FROM OUTSIDE - BUT INTERIOR DOME LIGHT STAYS ON AS AN INDICATION SEEMS TO OCCUR MORE FREQUENTLY DURING COLDER TEMPERATURES, AND TAKES LONGER TO "CATCH"/FOR SENSOR TO FINALLY REALIZE THE DOOR REALLY IS CLOSED. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE I BOUGHT VEHICLE (USED) 6 MONTHS AGO, SPORADICALLY AT FIRST, BUT NOW EVERY DAY, SOMETIMES MULTIPLE TIMES A DAY (POSSIBLY BECAUSE OF COLDER TEMPERATURES?).

I OWN A 2011 FORD EDGE SE. IN THE PAST FEW MONTHS, AFTER CLOSING THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR, THE 'DOOR AJAR' LIGHT REMAINS ON. ALL DOME LIGHTS REMAIN ON. OPENING AND THEN CLOSING THE DOOR CAN TURN THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT OFF. THIS BEGAN AS AN INTERMITTENT OCCURRENCE IN AUGUST. NOW IT OCCURS EVERY TIME I ENTER AND EXIT THE VEHICLE. TO ELIMINATE THE DASHBOARD WARNING LIGHT, I REPEATEDLY OPEN AND CLOSE THE DOOR UNTIL THE DOOR AJAR WARNING TURNS OFF. THIS OPENING AND CLOSING CAN BE ANYWHERE BETWEEN 1 AND 15 TIMES BEFORE EXTINGUISHING THE SENSOR LIGHT. DOING A BIT OF RESEARCH LED ME TO A FAULTY DOOR LATCH SENSOR. THIS A VERY DELICATE LOOKING SWITCH ACCESSIBLE JUST BEHIND THE DOOR LATCH. DEALER ESTIMATE FOR REPAIR: $175 FOR DOOR LATCH SENSOR ASSEMBLY AND $300 LABOR TO INSTALL, TOTAL: $475. FORD MUST KNOW SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THIS DESIGN. IF...

DRIVER DOOR AJAR SWITCH MALFUNCTIONING. CONSISTENTLY DISPLAYING "DRIVER DOOR AJAR" WHEN CLOSED. THIS CAUSES OVERHEAD LIGHTS TO STAY ON MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO SEE AT NIGHT, ALSO CAUSES ISSUES LOCKING THE DOOR WHEN EXITING VEHICLE BECAUSE IT THINKS THE DOOR IS STILL OPEN. THIS ISSUE OCCURS EVERYDAY ON MOST DOOR OPENINGS/CLOSINGS.

DOOR AJAR ALERT COMES ON WHILE DRIVING (CAR IN MOTION) - DOORS UNLOCK, OVERHEAD LIGHTS TURN ON. I STOP, OPEN/SHUT DOOR FIRMLY CONTINUE DRIVING AND RECEIVE THE SAME MESSAGE LATER IN THE DRIVE. I HAVE ON SEVERAL RECENT OCCASIONS RECEIVED THIS ALERT WHILE STATIONARY. THIS IS OCCURRING OFF AND ON BUT NOW HAS BECOME MORE COMMON. THE DOOR IS SHUT BUT THE ALERT COMES ON AT A VARIETY OF INTERVALS AND WHEN IN MOTION THE DOORS UNLOCK AND THE LIGHTS OVERHEAD COME IN WHICH CAN BE DANGEROUS IN AND DISTRACTING. MOST RECENT OCCURRENCE 12/3/15

DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR SENSOR DOESN'T WORK, ALWAYS.

DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON WHEN DOOR IS NOT AJAR. INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ON AFTER VEHICLE IS PARKED AND DOOR IS SHUT.

DRIVER'S DOOR AJAR SWITCH FAILS TO REGISTER WHEN DOOR IS FULLY CLOSED, LEAVING INTERIOR LIGHTS ON MAKING NIGHT VISIBILITY POOR, MAKING LOCKING THE DOORS IMPOSSIBLE WHICH IMPACTS SAFTY BOTH IN THE PARKING LOT AND DURING TRAVEL. RUNS BATTERY DOWN, STRANDING DRIVER.

DOOR SENSOR STAYING ON AFTER DRIVER DOOR IS COMPLETELY CLOSED. SINCE SENSOR IS ON LIGHTS STAY ON AND IS DRAINING BATTERY WHEN EXITING VEHICLE. LIGHTS ON DURING NIGHT TIME DRIVING DANGEROUS. HAS BEEN INTERMITTENT FOR THE PAST FEW WEEKS BUT GETTING WORSE. THERE ARE SEVERAL REPORTS ON INTERNET THAT THIS IS ONGOING PROBLEM.

CAR REPORTS DRIVERS DOOR IS AJAR. INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON WHILE DRIVING AND DOORS CAN NOT BE LOCKED WHILE DRIVING. KEYPAD CAN NOT BE USED TO LOCK CAR. AFTER LOCKING CAR WITH REMOTE, LIGHTS STAY ON FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME LEADING TO FLY BATTERY.

I LEFT MY HOUSE IN THE MORNING ON 11/6 AND AFTER A SHORT DRIVE THE "AWD OFF" AND A "LITTLE WRENCH" LIGHT CAME ON AND THE CAR LOST POWER AND JUST STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET SINCE I WAS TRYING TO GO UP A HILL. THANKFULLY NO ONE WAS BEHIND ME!! IT STARTED TO RUN VERY ROUGH SO I TURNED IT OFF QUICKLY, WAITED A FEW SECONDS AND RESTARTED IT. THE CAR THEN RAN OK AND GOT ME TO WORK AND HOME AGAIN BUT WHEN MY HUSBAND TOOK IT TO RUN AN ERRAND THAT NIGHT, SAME THING HAPPENED TO HIM AND THEN AGAIN THIS MORNING WHEN I WAS BRINGING THE CAR DOWN FOR SERVICE. THIS WAS THREE TIMES IN ONE DAY! WITH NO WARNING THE CAR JUST LOSES POWER AND STOPS. VERY DANGEROUS!! I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE MY CAR NOW AND I DON'T WANT TO BE ON THE...

DRIVER-SIDE DOOR SENSOR DOES NOT DETECT THAT THE DOOR IS CLOSED AND THE "DOOR AJAR" WARNING NEVER TURNS OFF.

THE CAR DOES NOT DETECT THAT THE VEHICLE IS IN PARK AND THE "SHIFT TO PARK" WARNING CONTINUES TO SOUND EVEN THOUGH THE CAR IS ACTUALLY IN PARK.

THE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED ALTHOUGH THE DOORS WERE SHUT CLOSE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE DOOR LATCH MECHANISM WAS DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. ISSUE LEAD TO DRAINED BATTERY - CAR APPEARS NOT TO HAVE A BATTERY SAFETY FOR DOOR AJAR. LEAD TO UNSAFE CONDITION NOT BEING ABLE TO USE WHEN NEEDED. COULD BE DANGEROUS IF CAR WOULD HAVE BEEN REMOTE OR IN UNSAFE AREA. REPAIRED FOR OVER $400.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT REMAINED ILLUMINATED EVEN WHEN THE DOOR WAS SECURED. IN ADDITION, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT LOCK UNTIL AFTER THE THIRD OR FOURTH ATTEMPT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

DRIVER DOOR ADJAR STAYS ON, LITES WILL NOT TURN OFF IN CAR AND DOOR LOCK WILL UNLOCK AND NOT WORK WHEN THIS IS ON. IT HAS STARTED DOING THIS AGAIN WHILE GOING DOWN THE ROAD LITE GOES ON DOORS UNLOCK. THIS HAS HAPPEN SINCE WE PURCHASED THE VECHILE HAD IT REPAIRED ONCE.

DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON AND STAYS ON AND INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL NOT GOT OUT AND AT NIGHT TIME THIS IS A REAL HAZARD FROM BEING BLINDED FROM THE LIGHTS AND YOU CAN'T TURN THEM OFF, ALSO THE DOOR LOCKS WILL NOT SET BECAUSE OF THIS SWITCH AND OTHER SAFETY HAZARD. IT HAPPEN ABOUT 1 MONTH AGO AND HAS BEEN A ONGOING PROBLEM.

DRIVER DOOR AJAR LIGHT WARNING REMAINS ON AFTER DOOR IS CLOSED. DOME LIGHTS REMAIN ON FOR 5 MINUTES OR LONGER AND CREATES A VISIBILITY ISSUE WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT. THE DOORS DO NOT AUTOMATICALLY LOCK WHEN VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. PASSENGER DOOR WHEN OPENED AND CLOSED ALSO KEEPS DOME LIGHTS ON FOR EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME.

SUMMARY: WHILE GETTING IN MY CAR I REALIZED AFTER I SHUT THE DOOR AT STILL SAYS DOOR AJAR ON DASH. THIS IS GETTING WORSE BECUSE IS NOT ALLOW YOU TO LOCK DOORS WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING. HOW IS POSSIBLE THAT THIS KEEP CONTINUE IN THE LATEST MODELS ALSO, WHAT KIND OF ENGINEERS HAVE FORD THAT THEY CAN NOT FIX THIS SMALL ISSUE THAT CAN CAUSE BIG PROBLEMS IN A CASE OF AN ACCCIDENT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE PASSENGER DOOR INDEPENDENTLY REGISTERED AS OPEN WHEN IT WAS NOT. AS A RESULT, THE EXTERIOR LIGHTING REMAINED ILLUMINATED WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED. THE DOOR AJAR WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER TO GET DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 65,000. UPDATE 01/13/16 MA

DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT ON. INTERIOR LIGHTS DO NOT TURN OFF UNTIL ABOUT 20 MILES PER HOUR. DOORS WILL NOT LOCK IF YOU LOCK THE DOORS THEY WILL JUST UNLOCK EVEN WHILE DRIVING.. THIS IS A REAL SAFETY CONCERN.

DRIVERS DOOR AJAR ALARM IS ACTIVE EVEN THOUGH THE DOOR IS CLOSED, THIS WILL NOT ALLOW THE DOORS TO BE LOCKED WHILE THE CAR IS I MOTION. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED WITHIN THE LAST 2 YEARS. THE REPAIR REQUIRES THAT THE DOOR LOCK MECHANISM BE REPLACED...FORD NEEDS TO DETERMINE WHY THIS LOCK UNIT KEEPS FAILING!

PASSENGER DOOR AJAR ALERT IS ON CONSTANT DELAY. THE DOOR IS CLOSED BUT THE SENSOR WILL NOT GO OFF. THIS LEAVES THE OVERHEAD LIGHTS ON WHICH CREATE A VISIBILITY ISSUE AT NIGHT. THIS ALERT ALSO PREVENTS THE DOORS FROM LOCKING. ONCE THE VEHICLE IS TURNED OFF THE COMPUTER AND LIGHTS STAY ON FOR ANOTHER 10 MINUTES BEFORE TURNING OFF WHICH ALSO DRAINS THE BATTERY.

THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR WILL NOT GO AWAY. THE SENSOR SEEMS TO BE BROKEN FOR THIS AND THROUGH MY RESEARCH IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM. THIS CAUSE THE DOME LIGHTS TO STAY ON, HINDERING VISIBILITY WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT. FURTHER, THE LIGHTS BOTH INSIDE/OUTSIDE AS WELL AS THE CONSOLE STAY ON FOR 10 MINUTES IF DOOR IS CLOSED AND LOCKED. THIS IN TURN DRAINS THE BATTERY SOMETIMES REQUIRING A BOOST.

THE DOOR AJAR SENSOR DOES NOT REGISTER THAT THE DOOR IS CLOSED.

THE LEFT REAR DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON AND DOES NOT GO OFF EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS SHUT. ALSO, THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON FOR UP TO AN HOUR AFTER PARKING THE CAR, AND FOR 3-5 MINUTES AFTER STARTING THE CAR. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT. IT HAS ALSO KILLED A BATTERY ALREADY.

THE DOOR SENSOR THAT REGISTERS THE DRIVER DOOR BEING OPEN OR SHUT HAS MALFUNCTIONED. CAUSING IT TO CONSTANTLY STATE THE DOOR IS AJAR WHEN IT IS CLOSED. VERY COMMON PROBLEM IT SEEMS FROM MANY COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER FORD EDGE OWNERS. IT WOULD BE GREAT IF FORD COULD STEP UP AND RECALL THIS PROBLEM, SINCE ITS STRETCHING TO THE LINCOLN BRAND TOO. ITS VERY UNSAFE FOR THESE REASONS, IT CAUSES THE CABIN LIGHT TO STAY ON LONGER WHICH CAN CAUSE PROBLEMS SEEING AT NIGHT TIL IT FINALLY DIMS, IT ALSO DRAINS THE BATTERY. BEING A SINGLE MOM, I DONT WANT TO BE STRANDED SOMEWHERE WITH MY CHILD WITH A DEAD BATTERY DUE TO THIS PROBLEM. THAT BEING SAID, NOT BEING ABLE TO LOCK DOORS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW MY FAMILY IS SAFE WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. PLEASE FIX THIS PROBLEM.

THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR AJAR LIGHT CAME ON AND WOULDN'T TURN OFF EVEN WHEN THE DOOR WAS CLOSED PROPERTY, I TOOK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS A KNOWN ISSUE. THEY REPLACED THE SOMETHING ELECTRICAL IN THE DRIVER'S DOOR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 FORD EDGE. AFTER CLOSING THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE DOOR, THE DOOR AJAR SENSOR ILLUMINATED WHEN THE DOOR WAS SECURED. DURING THE FAILURE, THE INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAINED ON WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 30,000.

WHILE DRIVING SEVERAL TIMES, THE CAR WOULD STALL OUT. THE AWD AND WRENCH LIGHT WOULD COME ON. UNABLE TO ACCELERATE OR DRIVE ANY FURTHER. I WAS ALMOST HIT BY OTHER VEHICLES TWICE TRYING TO COAST TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. TOOK IT TO A FORD DEALERSHIP OUT OF TOWN AND WAS FOUND TO HAVE A DEFAULTED THROTTLE BODY. HAVE NOTICED THE SAME COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM ONLINE. THINKING THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THIS PART BEFORE SOMEBODY GETS SERIOUSLY HURT. IT COST ME 647.57 TO HAVE THIS FIXED PLUS TRAVELING EXPENSES TO PICK UP MY CAR AND RENT A CAR.

A MESSAGE SAYING 'DRIVER DOOR AJAR' APPEARS ON THE CONSOLE EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS TIGHTLY SHUT. IF I TRY TO LOCK THE DOORS THE CAR WOULD JUST UNLOCK ALL DOORS EVEN WHILE I'M DRIVING. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY FOR SOMEONE LIKE ME WHO DRIVES MY KIDS TO THE DAYCARE AND SCHOOL EVERYDAY. AT NIGHTTIME, THE INTERNAL LIGHTS WOULD ALSO NOT TURN OFF BECAUSE THE CAR THINKS THAT ONE OF THE DOORS IS OPEN. NOT ONLY IS IT DRAINING THE BATTERY, IT IS ALSO BASICALLY BROADCASTING TO EVERYONE THAT THE CAR IS OPEN. I HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM OCCUR ON THE CAR IN ALMOST EVERY YEAR I OWNED IT (4 YEARS). IT HAS BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP A NUMBER OF TIMES. THEY FIX IT BUT IT KEEPS COMING BACK PARTICULARLY IN THE SUMMER TIME. I FEEL LIKE IT SHOULD BE RECALLED AND I HAVE RAISED THE ISSUE WITH THE...

DOOR AJAR LIGHT (DRIVERS DOOR) AND INTERIOR LIGHT STAY ON, REPEATED CLOSING SOMETIMES SHUTS OFF LIGHTS

DOOR AJAR AND LATCH PROBLEM. * DOOR AJAR SIGNAL STAYS ON WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED * INTERIOR LIGHT STAYS ON WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED * DOOR WON'T LOCK WHILE VEHICLE IS MOVING

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE PASSENGER AND DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. AS A RESULT, THE DOORS FAILED TO LATCH AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS FAILED TO DEACTIVATE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE DOOR SENSORS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. ON ANOTHER OCCASION, THE PUSH TO START FAILED TO OPERATE WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT BELIEVED THAT THE FAILURE OF THE DOOR SENSORS CAUSED THE BATTERY TO FAIL. THE BATTERY WAS REPLACED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 20,000.

THIS THE FOURTH TIME DOOR SENSOR (DOOR NOT CLOSED) APPEARS AND INSIDE DOME LIGHT IS ON WHILE DRIVING DASH IS LITE UP AND WORST OF ALL THE DOORS DONOT LOCK WHICH CONCERNS US DUE TO HAVING SMALL GRAND KIDS IN BACK SEATING AREA. IF THEY OPEN DOOR AND TAKE THEIR SEAT BELT OFF WE CAN NOT STOP CAR FAST ENOUGH.

THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON FOR BOTH THE DRIVER SIDE AND PASSENGER SIDE DOORS. THIS IS CAUSING THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TO STAY ON AND IS DRAINING MY BATTERY. IT IS ALSO CAUSING THE INTERIOR LIGHT TO STAY ON AT NIGHT WHICH IS MAKING IT HARD TO SEE. THE DOORS WON'T LOCK WHEN IN DRIVE BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM TOO.

IN MAY OF 2014 MY FORD EDGE HAS BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR BEING AJAR. WHEN THE DOOR IS SHUT THE DOME LIGHTS STAY ON UNTIL YOU GO PUT IT IN DRIVE AND GO OVER 20MPH, THEN THEY SHUT OFF. THATS THE ONLY WAY TO TURN THE LIGHTS OFF. ITS A DOOR SENSOR ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED ASAP. THE DOOR IS COMPLETELY SHUT AND THE DASH ICON SAYS "DRIVER DOOR IS AJAR". IT KILLS THE BATTERY AND WE NEED TO JUMP IT EVERY TIME WE USE THE VEHICLE. I JUST BOUGHT A NEW $109.00 BATTERY AND NEXT WEEK I'LL TAKE IT TO FORD TO PAY THE 500+ DOLLARS FOR A NEW SENSOR. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE AND IT IS A VERY DANGEROUS HAZARD WHEN OPERATING AFTER SUNSET. DRIVING WITH THE DOME LIGHT ON AT NIGHT IS VERY DANGEROUS FOR MY FAMILY. BUILT FORD TOUGH?

DOOR AJAR SENSOR/WARNING WILL NOT CLEAR

REAR DOOR(S) SHOW AJAR EVEN THOUGH THE DOOR(S) ARE CLOSED. I OPEN AND CLOSE THE DOOR(S) AND THE COMPUTER READS THEM AS BEING AJAR AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON FOR AWHILE. I CAN'T SET MY ALARM BECAUSE OF THE PROBLEM. IN RESEARCHING THE PROBLEM ON THE WEB I FOUND OUT THAT THERE ARE ALOT OF PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM ON THEIR FORD PRODUCTS.

THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR SENSOR TURNS ON WHEN THE DOOR IS SHUT. THE DOOR CAN BE CLOSED MULTIPLE TIMES BUT THE DOOR AJAR SENSOR STILL BELIEVES THE DOOR IS NOT SHUT. THIS CAUSES THE BATTERY TO DRAIN.

THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR SENSOR IS NOT WORKING. DOOR SHOWS OPEN, AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WON'T TURN OFF. WON'T LOCK DOORS AND SEVERAL OTHER PROBLEMS. FROM ALL THE FEEDBACK I'VE READ, SURE WOULD LIKE TO SEE FORD DO THE RIGHT THING AND ISSUE A RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM. THANKS!

MY 2011 FORD EDGE INSIDE INTERIOR LIGHT STAYS ON FOR SEVERAL MINUTES EVERY TIME I GET IN THE CAR, I GUESS ITS THE SENSOR ON MY DOOR BUT ITS HAPPENED ON THE BACK HATCH DOOR AS WELL. ON MY DASHBOARD IT TELL ME THAT I HAVE AN OPEN DOOR WHICH ITS COMPLETELY CLOSED BUT LIGHT STAYS ON UNTIL I DRIVE OFF. OR WHEN I GET OUT OF THE CAR AND LOCK THE DOORS THE LIGHT STAYS ON FOR SEVERAL MINUTES, ITS DRAINING MY BATTERY. WHEN ALL OF THIS HAPPENS I CAN NOT EVEN LOCK MY DOORS WHEN I AM DRIVING THE CAR, I NEED TO LOCK MY DOORS FOR SAFETY PURPOSES, MY DOORS ARE ALWAYS UNLOCK BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE. ALSO, CAR ALARM WILL ENGAGE WHEN CAR IS PARKED AND LOCKED.

THE WARNING ON THE DASHBOARD FOR DRIVER'S DOOR AJAR CONTINUES TO COME ON DESPITE THE DOOR BEING SECURELY SHUT. THIS PREVENTS THE DOORS FROM LOCKING. IN ADDITION, THE INTERIOR LIGHTS ILLUMINATE AT TIMES WHEN VEHICLE IS OFF DUE TO THE DOOR AJAR WARNING, DRAINING THE VEHICLE BATTERY. THIS CAUSES A SECONDARY SAFETY ISSUE OF BEING STRANDED DUE TO BATTERY BEING DRAINED AND CAR UNABLE TO START.
