2013 FORD EDGE Electrical System Problems

DOOR AJAR WARNING IS PRESENT WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED. NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES WE CLOSE THE DOOR, THE LIGHT STAYS ON. WE ARE ABLE TO BOTH PARK AND DRIVE WITH THIS ALARM ON BUT THE CABIN LIGHTS STAY ON THE ENTIRE TIME. WE EXPERIENCED THE FIRST ISSUE IN JANUARY 2015 AND THE FORD FULLER DEALERSHIP IN CHULA VISTA, CA REPLACE IT BECAUSE THE CAR WAS UNDER WARRANTY. JULY 2016, THE SAME WARNING WAS APPEARING ON THE DASH BOARD WITH THE SAME ISSUE. WE TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE WE PURCHASED IT, AND HAD THE FIRST REPAIR DONE, AND THEY WOULD NOT COVER THEIR FAULTY WORK. THEY STATED THAT SINCE OUR 3 YEAR WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED THE ISSUE WOULD NO LONGER BE COVERED, REGARDLESS OF THE FACT THAT THEY "FIXED" THE ISSUE WHEN IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY AND THEY GUARANTEE THEIR REPAIRS FOR 2 YEARS. WE ENDED UP...

THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR IS STAYING ON EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS SHUT AND VERIFIED TO BE SHUT ALL THE WAY. THE BELL CHIMES AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON MAKING DRIVING THE VEHICLE AWKWARD AND HAZARDOUS. THE INDICATOR STAYS ON WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND STATIONARY. THIS IS LISTED AS A COMMON PROBLEM BUT YET FORD HAS DONE NOTHING ABOUT IT. COST TO REPAIR APPROXIMATELY $400.

MY DOOR AJAR LIGHT WILL NOT GO OFF WHEN I CLOSE THE DOOR. MY CAR DOORS WILL NOT LOCK EVEN MANUALLY WHICH IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. MY BATTERY IS ALSO GOING TO DIE DUE TO THE DOME LIGHT NEVER SHUTTING OFF.

DRIVERS AND DRIVER SIDE DOOR SAY A JAR EVEN WITH DOORS CLOSED TIGHTLY.

THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR LIGHT REMAINS ON EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED. THE DEALERSHIP NOTIFIED ME OF THE LOCKING SENSOR/ASSEMBLY BEING FAULTY AND THAT I NEED TO HAVE THIS CHANGED BECAUSE THE BATTERY CAN DRAIN. REPAIRS COST ABOUT $400 SINCE I WAS 3,000 MILES BEYOND OF THE WARRANTY.

DRIVERS DOOR AJAR LIGHT WILL NOT GO OUT. CONSTANT CHIMES WEB PAID $139.55 TO FIX AND IT HAS STARTED TO DO IT AGAIN

THE "DOOR AJAR" LIGHT COMES ON ALL OF THE TIME WHICH DOESN'T ALLOW TO LOCK THE DOOR AND KEEPS THE LIGHTS ON WHICH DRAINS THE BATTERY. I HAVE TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER FOR REPAIR ($500)

DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR INDICATION WHEN DOOR IS SECURED CLOSED. WHILE CAR IS IN GEAR THE "DOOR AJAR" INDICATION ALONG WITH THE INTERIOR LIGHTING ILLUMINATING. AT TIMES THE INDICATION DOES NOT COME ON UNTIL THE DOOR AUTO LOCK LOCKS DURING DRIVING. THIS IS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM BUT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BY THE FORD MANUFACTURER. THE RANDOM FAULTY INDICATION TAKES DRIVER'S FOCUS AND ATTENTION FROM DRIVING TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM.

DRIVERS DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT COMES ON, UNABLE TO LOCK DOORS WHILE CAR IS IN GEAR. WARNING ALARM SOUNDS TELLING DRIVER TO PUT VEHICLE IN PARK., INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON.

PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE MARCH 29, 2016. LESS THAN 2 MONTHS LATER THE VEHICLE STARTED RANDOMLY STALLING AND GOING INTO LIMP MODE AND I HAD TO PULL OVER ON THE BUSY DC HIGHWAY WITH 2 SMALL CHILDREN IN THE BACK WHICH WAS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND A WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON BUT IT CUT OFF AFTER A RESTART. AUTO ZONE COULDNT READ THE CODES UNLESS THE CAR WAS MALFUNCTIONING AT THE TIME WHICH HAPPENS RANDOMLY. SINCE THE CAR IS STILL WITHIN THE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY I TOOK IT TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP AND THEY DIAGNOSED IT AS P2111 ELECTRIC THROTTLE BODY FAILURE. THE ADVISOR AGREED THAT THIS HAS BEEN A COMMON PROBLEM IN FORD MODELS AND I READ THAT A CONSUMER SAFETY PROGRAM WAS STARTED FOR OTHER FORD MODELS WITH THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. THE ADVISOR SAID IT IS NOT COVERED BY THE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY AND SINCE THERE IS...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING 5 MPH, THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE FAILURE RECURRED WHENEVER THE VEHICLE WAS OPERATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 47,570.

THE FAULTY DOOR CLOSED SWITCH AND/OR DESIGN IS INDICATING THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR IS OPEN WHEN IT IS NOT. THIS ISSUE IS CAUSING ALL THE DOORS TO REMAIN UNLOCKED WHILE DRIVING OR UNLOCK DURING DRIVING IF IT GOES OFF. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN ADDRESSED BY THE FORD DEALERSHIP TWICE AND NOW IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY THEY DO NOT WANT TO FIX IT. IT NEEDS TO BE RECALLED.

MY REAR DRIVERS SIDE DOOR IS CLOSED AND YET THE DOOR AJAR WARNING STAYS ON THEREFORE MY DOORS DON'T AUTOMATICALLY LOCK WHEN IN MOTION. AND WHEN THE KEY IS PULLED OUT OF THE IGNITION ALL THE INTERIOR LIGHTS AND THE LIGHTS ON MY SIDE MIRRORS STAY ON UNTIL I START THE CAR AGAIN SO THEY STAY ON FOR HOURS AT A TIME, MAKING EVERY BULB VERY HOT AND DRAINING MY BATTERY. I FIGURED THIS WAS JUST MORE WEAR AND TEAR BUT AFTER LOOKING INTO IT IT SEEMS MANY OTHER EDGE OWNERS ARE HAVING THE SAME EXACT ISSUE.

THE DRIVER SIDE LATCH AND DOOR AJAR SENSOR ARE DEFECTIVE. THE CAR DOES NOT PROPERLY REGISTER THAT THE DOOR IS CLOSED. THIS FORCES THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT AND SOUND TO REPEATEDLY GO OFF. THIS ALSO KEEPS THE DOME LIGHT ON WHEN SHUTTING THE DOOR THUS KILLING THE BATTERY. ALSO, YOU ARE NOT ABLE TO LOCK THE DOORS AND THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE WITH KIDS AND WITH ITEMS IN THE CAR BEING STOLEN.

THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED TIGHT.(DRIVERS DOOR) THIS CAUSES WARNING LIGHTS AND SOUNDS FROM DASH DISPLAY. THE DOOR OVERHEAD LIGHTS ALSO COME ON.

MY 2013 FORD EDGE VEHICLE DOOR AJAR LIGHT CAME ON ABOUT A WEEK AGO. I CAN NOT GET THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT TO SHUT OFF. IT DOES NOT MATTER HOW HARD OR SOFT IS SHUT IT, IT WILL STAY ON. I DRIVE 20 MILES TO WORK EVERYDAY. IT IS A BIG SAFETY HAZARD. WHEN I DO GET IT TO SHUT OFF , WHILE DRIVING IT WILL POP BACK ON.. THEN MY INTERIOR LIGHTS COME AND I HAVE A HARD TIME GETTING THEM OFF. I HAVE 2 KIDS AND THIS IS A BIG SAFETY ISSUE FOR ME. I SEE MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE BUT NO RECALL. THE LOCKS WILL LOT LOCK WITH THIS LIGHT ON. LIKE I SAID BEFORE I HAVE KIDS AND THIS IS A BIG CONCERN FOR ME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT WAS PERSISTENTLY ILLUMINATED WHEN THE DOORS WERE COMPLETELY SHUT. THE FAILURE WAS PERSISTENT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 40,000.

LESS THAN 24 HOURS AFTER I PURCHASED THIS CERTIFIED USED VEHICLE FROM A FORD DEALER, DRIVER'S DOOR AJAR WARNING APPEARS WHILE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION EVEN THOUGH DOOR IS FIRMLY LATCHED. ALL DOORS INSTANTLY AUTOMATICALLY UNLOCK WHILE DRIVING. DOORS CANNOT BE RE-LOCKED BECAUSE THEY IMMEDIATELY UNLOCK AGAIN. THIS REPRESENTS AN ACCIDENT HAZARD BECAUSE IT ALLOWS OCCUPANTS TO POTENTIALLY BE THROWN FROM THE VEHICLE IN THE EVENT OF A COLLISION. THIS CONDITION IS APPARENTLY DUE TO A FAULTY DOOR LATCH SWITCH AND IS WELL DOCUMENTED BY HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ON THE INTERNET.

DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR ISSUE- WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT WILL COME ON WHILE DRIVING OR WHILE PARKED. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL STAY ON EVEN WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT. THE DOOR LOCKS WILL ALSO NOT STAY LOCKED. THIS WILL HAPPEN WHETHER DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY OR IN THE CITY. EVERY TIME YOU DRIVE THE CAR THIS WILL HAPPEN. WHEN THE CAR IS TURNED OFF AND PARKED THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL STAY ON. I HAVE TO OPEN AND CLOSE THE DOOR SEVERAL TIMES IN ORDER FOR THE LIGHTS TO FINALLY SHUT OFF.

WHILE I WAS DRIVING MY VEHICLE, I COMPLETELY LOST POWER. MY CAR WAS DRIVING ON ITS OWN, ABOUT 2MPH ON THE ROAD, WHILE EVERYONE ELSE WAS DRIVING 45MPH. THIS HAPPENED SUDDENLY, AND MY CAR WAS NOT ABLE TO STOP WHEN I WAS AT A RED LIGHT. THIS WAS AN EXTREMELY SCARY SITUATION BECAUSE WHILE I WAS DRIVING, MY CAR SUDDENLY STOPPED. THE CARS AROUND ME COULD HAVE EASILY COLLIDED WITH MINE, ESPECIALLY WHEN MY CAR WAS NOT ABLE TO STOP UNTIL I WAS ABLE TO GET OFF THE ROAD AND PUT IT IN PARK. WHILE MY CAR WAS IN PARK, IT WAS SHAKING. I HAD TO GET MY CAR TOWED TO A DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY PROCEEDED TO TELL ME THAT I HAVE A THROTTLE BODY PROBLEM. THIS IS SOMETHING I NEVER HEARD OF. BUT TO KNOW THAT AT ANY TIME, MY CAR CAN RANDOMLY STOP ON ITS OWN IS SCARY....

I WAS HOPING THAT THE ISSUE, WHICH OBVIOUSLY IS A MANUFACTURING/DESIGN DEFECT, WOULD BE COVERED IN A RECALL NOTICE. SO FAR IT HAS NOT AND I HESITATE TO PAY SEVERAL HUNDRED $ FOR A DEALER "FIX" THAT DOES NOT REALLY RESOLVE THE PROBLEM.I HAVE READ THAT THE COST (PARTS & LABOR) IS IN THE $400.00. OF COURSE THIS PROBLEM COMES UP JUST AS THE VEHICLE GOES OUT OF WARRANTY DUE TO MILEAGE

DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED INTERIOR LIGHT STAYS ON INABILITY TO LOCK DOORS WHEN INSIDE FAULTY LATCH

THE SWITCH THAT CONTROLS THE CIRCUIT THAT DETECTS IF THE DRIVER DOOR IS CLOSED OR NOT IS DEFECTIVE. AN INTERNET SEARCH SHOWS THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE ON THESE VEHICLES. IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE IN THAT THE DOORS WILL UNLOCK (INCLUDING THE REAR DOORS) AUTOMATICALLY WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. ALSO, DUE TO THE VEHICLE BELIEVING THE DOOR IS OPEN, IT WILL DRAIN THE BATTERY AND LEAVE THE CAR UNABLE TO START AFTER PARKING. THIS HAPPENS WHILE THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY, OR WHEN MOVING, AND WILL EVEN FAIL WHILE DRIVING EVEN AFTER CLOSING THE DOOR MANY TIMES TO ENSURE THE SWITCH ENDS UP IN THE RIGHT CONDITION.
