2013 FORD EDGE Electrical System Problems

DOOR AJAR LIGHT REMAINS ON REPEATEDLY WHEN DOOR IS CORRECTLY SHUT. THIS IS A RECURRING PROBLEM THAT TYPICALLY HAPPENS DAILY. DUE TO THE FALSE DOOR AJAR WARNING, THE VEHICLE MAY BE DRIVEN WITH THE DOOR AJAR WARNING ON. IF THE DOOR WERE ACTUALLY AJAR, THIS COULD CAUSE A SAFETY RISK. VEHICLE DOORS CANNOT BE LOCKED WHEN DOOR AJAR WARNING IS PRESENT. THIS COULD PRESENT A SAFETY RISK IF DOORS NEED TO BE LOCKED. *TR

DRIVER SIDE DOOR INDICATOR STAYS ON EVEN THOUGH DOOR IS SHUT. DOME LIGHT WON'T GO OFF AND DOORS WON'T LOCK. BATTERY WENT DEAD. I HAVE TO SLAM DOOR HARD SEVERAL TIMES TO GET INDICATOR AND LIGHT TO TURN OFF AND DOORS TO LOCK. *TR

THE DRIVER'S DOOR SENSOR IS DEFECTIVE CAUSING THE DOORS TO NOT LOCK AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TO STAY ON. THE LIGHTS ON IS A SAFETY HAZARD ESPECIALLY AT NIGHT. THE FALSE DOOR AJAR WARNING COULD CAUSE THE DRIVER TO DISREGARD A TRUE DOOR AJAR WARNING. *TR

DRIVER SIDE DOOR INDICATOR STAYS ON EVEN THOUGH DOOR IS SHUT. DOME LIGHT WON'T GO OFF AND DOORS WON'T LOCK. BATTERY WENT DEAD. I HAVE TO SLAM DOOR HARD SEVERAL TIMES TO GET INDICATOR AND LIGHT TO TURN OFF AND DOORS TO LOCK. *TR

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...

DRIVING DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT COMES ON WHEN THE DOOR IS NOT AJAR. WHEN THIS HAPPENS YOU CAN'T LOCK THE DOORS AND THE OVERHEAD LIGHTS STAY ON MAKING IT DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AT NIGHT AND IS A SAFETY HAZARD TO OCCUPANTS. *TR

DOOR AJAR LIGHT CONTINUALLY COME ON, WHICH RESULTS IN A WARNING LIGHT, DOORS WON'T LOCK, CAN SET THE ALARM WHEN PARKED. THE DOOR (DRIVER SIDE DOOR) IS CLEARLY CLOSED. THIS IS THE SECOND FORD EDGE (PREVIOUS WAS A 2011 MODEL) THAT HAS HAD THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. CLEARLY A TREND AND A DESIGN FLAW. PREVIOUS SWITCH WENT BAD AT JUST UNDER 40,000 MILES. *JS

DOOR ADJAR SWITCH DOESN'T WORK. INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON DRAINING THE BATTERY, CANNOT LOCK DOORS ANYTHING! THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM WITH ALL OF THESE VEHICLES. *TR

DRIVER'S DOOR OPEN REMAINS ON WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED. WARNING SOUND COMES ON WHILE DRIVING. *TR

DRIVER'S DOOR OPEN LIGHT COMES ON WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED. THIS HAPPENS VERY OFTEN AND CAUSES INTERIOR LIGHT TO STAY ON. WARNING LIGHT "SHIFT TO PARK" AND WARNING SOUND COMES ON WHILE DRIVING. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED WHEN THE DOOR WAS CLOSED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 67,000.

THE DRIVER'S DOOR SENSOR INDICATES THAT THE DOOR IS AJAR WHEN IT IS CLOSED AND WILL NOT TURN OFF UNTIL THE DOOR IS REPEATEDLY SLAMMED. THE INTERIOR DOME LIGHT WILL NOT TURN OFF AND THE ELECTRONIC CHIME WILL CONTINUE TO SOUND UNTIL THE SENSOR IS ACKNOWLEDGED OR THE DOOR IS SLAMMED UNTIL THE SENSOR TURNS OFF. *TR

THE DRIVERS DOOR AJAR SWITCH GIVES FALSE AJAR INDICATIONS. THIS CAUSES THE DOME LIGHTS TO STAY ON WHICH IS A NIGHT TIME DRIVING SAFETY HAZARD. THE FALSE READING PREVENTS THE DRIVER FOR SEEING ANY VALID AJAR SITUATIONS. WITH THE DOME LIGHTS ON, CREATES AN UNSAFE ENVIRONMENTS WHEN SITTING IN THE CAR AT NIGHT IN A PUBLIC AREA. THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WHEN SITTING IN THE CAR. *JS

SENSOR IN DRIVERS DOOR LATCH SENDS MESSAGE TO DASH PANEL "DOOR AJAR". THIS RESULTS IN A WARNING BELL EVERY TIME CAR STARTS FROM COMPLETE STOP. WE ARE CONCERNED THERE MIGHT BE SOMETHING ELSE WRONG & WE WOULDN'T NOTICE THE WARNING AS IT HAPPENS SO OFTEN AS WE DRIVE. *TR

DRIVERS DOOR LATCH FAULTY. CAUSES "DOOR AJAR" AND "SHIFT TO PARK" WARNING LIGHTS EVEN THOUGH DOOR COMPLETELY SHUT. IGNORING THE WARNING LIGHT IS DANGEROUS. UNDER WARRANTY FORD'S PROCEDURE IS STILL TO ONLY CLEAN THE CONTACTS AND NOT REPLACE THE UNIT. THIS FAULT OCCURRED AGAIN AFTER THEY CLEANED. *TR

DRIVER DOOR AJAR SENSOR MALFUNCTIONING AND INTERIOR LIGHT STAYS ON AND DOOR IS FULLY CLOSED ONLY HAVE 41,000 TO OPEN AND CLOSE TOO MANY TIMES FOR IT TO GO OUT AND IF THAT EVEN WORKS. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE "DRIVERS DOOR AJAR" WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED SPORADICALLY. AS A RESULT, THE VEHICLES WARNING CHIMES WOULD INTERMITTENTLY ACTIVATED, THE MAP LIGHTS IN THE VEHICLE WOULD STAY LIT, AND THE DOORS WOULD NOT LOCK ON THEIR OWN. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 114,651.

THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT WARNING COMES ON AS WELL AS THE INTERIOR MAP LIGHTS, THE DOOR HAS TO BE SLAMMED A NUMBER OF TIMES BEFORE THE WARNING GOES OFF AND THE LIGHTS GO OFF. IN ADDITION WHEN EXITING THE CAR IT CAN NOT BE LOCKED UNTIL YOU SLAM THE DOOR MORE THEN ONCE TO SHUT OFF THE ALERT. *TR

MY DOOR SENSOR ON MY DRIVER'S SIDE CONTINUES TO ALERT ME THAT IT'S OPEN, WHEN IT ISN'T. THIS CAUSES MY DOME LIGHT TO STAY ON AND ALL MY DOORS NOT TO LOCK. I HAVE TO SLAM MY DOOR HARD MULTIPLE TIMES TO GET IT TO GO OFF, OR JUST DRIVE WITH IT ON. *TR

DRIVER SIDE DOOR SYMBOL WILL APPEAR ON DASH BOARD WAS WELL AS DOOM LIGHTS WILL STAY ON, WILL HAVE TO SHUT DOOR A COUPLE OF TIMES OR TURN THE CAR BACK ON TO RESET. THIS NOW GETTING TO THE POINT THAT THE CAR CANNOT BE LOCKED OR THE DOOM INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL STAY ON AND DRAIN THE BATTERY. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE DRIVER DOOR UNLOCKED AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS ILLUMINATED INDEPENDENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

THE SYSTEM IS SHOWING A "DOOR AJAR" ALARM, DRIVERS FRONT DOOR. INITIALLY I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST BECAUSE I DID NOT CLOSE THE DOOR ENOUGH SO I OPENED IT AND PULLED HARDER AND THE ALARM WENT AWAY. WE DROVE THE CAR FOR A FEW DAYS AND ONE MORNING WHEN IT WAS COLD I CLOSED THE DOOR AND THE ALARM POSTED AGAIN AFTER OPENING AND CLOSING THE DOOR SEVERAL TIMES THE ALARM WENT AWAY. WE DROVE THE CAR A FEW MORE DAYS AND THE ALARM WAS POSTING 50 % OF THE TIME. AROUND DECEMBER THE ALARM BEGAN POSTING MOST OF THE TIME, NOW IT POST 100% OF THE TIME EVEN ON THE WARM DAYS. THERE ARE AT LEAST THREE ISSUES WHEN THE ALARM IS ON. 1.THE DOME LIGHTS STAY ON AFTER THE CAR IS TURNED OFF FOR AROUND 20 MINUTES, I'M SURE THIS IS NOT GOOD ON THE BATTERY. 2.THE DOME...

THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS EVEN WHEN THE DOOR IS SHUT. I HAVE TO SLAM THE DOOR HARD 4-5 TIMES TO GET IT TO GO OFF. WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE LIGHT WILL COME ON AND THE ALERT TO "SHIFT TO PARK". I TOOK IT TO A FORD DEALER WHO CHARGED ME $80 TO SAY THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG. I CAME HOME, KNOWING THIS WASN'T RIGHT AND FOUND NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ONLINE ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE. FORD NEEDS TO PLACE A RECALL ON THIS. *TR

THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR KEEPS READING DOOR AJAR EVEN THO THE DOOR IS CLOSED. IT HAPPENS NOT ONLY WHEN THE CAR IS OFF AND WE GO TO LOCK IT, BUT WHILE WE ARE DRIVING AS WELL. IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING THE CAR WILL BEGIN TO MAKE ALERT SOUNDS, THE LIGHTS WILL COME ON, AND IT WILL ALERT US TO PUT THE CAR INTO PARK. WHEN WE DO PARK AND GO TO LOCK THE CAR, THE DOME LIGHTS STAY ON UNTIL THE TIMER SHUTS THEM OFF BECAUSE IT IS STILL REGISTERING THE DOOR AS AJAR. MY MAIN CONCERN WITH THIS PROBLEM IS THAT WE HAVE A NEWBORN AND THE SAFETY ISSUES WITH DRIVING THIS VEHICLE WHILE ALERTS ARE GOING OFF IS VERY TROUBLESOME. I HAVE SET AN APPOINTMENT UP WITH THE FORD DEALERSHIP TO LOOK AT THE DOOR, BUT AFTER REVIEWING THE GROSS NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS SAME ISSUE,...

THE SYSTEM IS SHOWING A "DOOR AJAR" ALARM, DRIVERS FRONT DOOR. INITIALLY I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST BECAUSE I DID NOT CLOSE THE DOOR ENOUGH SO I JUST OPENED IT, AND PULLED A LITTLE HARDER AND THE ALARM WENT AWAY. I DROVE THE CAR FOR A FEW DAYS AND ONE MORNING WHEN IT WAS FROSTY I CLOSED THE DOOR AND THE "DOOR AJAR" ALARM POSTED AGAIN. I OPENED THE DOOR AND CLOSED IT SEVERAL TIMES AND THE ALARM WENT AWAY. FROM THIS I THOUGHT THE STRIKER NEEDED TO BE ADJUSTED, I THOUGHT, "HOW IS IT POSSIBLE THAT THE DOOR SWITCH COULD HAVE FAILED ON A VEHICLE THAT IS ONLY 1.5 YEARS OLD?". I DROVE THE CAR FOR A FEW MORE DAYS AND AT THIS POINT THE ALARM WAS POSTING ABOUT 50% OF THE TIME. AROUND THE BEGINNING OF DECEMBER THE ALARM BEGAN POSTING ALL THE TIME. NOW, IT POSTS NEARLY...

THE DOOR AJAR SENSOR WENT ON. WHEN THAT GOES ON WHEN BACKING UP YOU CAN'T SEE BECAUSE THE DOME LIGHTS STAYS ON CAUSING A DANGEROUS SITUATION. IT CREATES A GLARE MAKING IT HARD TO SEE WHAT IS BEHIND YOU. THE DOME LIGHT WILL FINALLY SHUT OFF WHEN YOU GO FORWARD WHEN A CERTAIN SPEED IS MEET. ALSO WHEN THE DOME LIGHT IS ON BECAUSE OF THE SENSOR IT WILL NOT LOCK THE DOOR. THIS SENSOR ON MY CAR WAS CLEANED ON 7/31/14 BY A FORD DEALER. THIS ONLY LASTED ABOUT SIX MONTH AND I JUST HAD IT THE DOOR LATCH REPLACED ON 1/13/15 BECAUSE OF THE SAME PROBLEM. RECENTLY I WAS STUCK IN TRAFFIC BECAUSE A SNOW STORM IN WHICH IT TOOK ME 2-1/2 HOURS TO GET HOME. MY TYPICAL COMMUTE HOME IS 45 MINUTES. WHILE I WAS IN TRAFFIC 5:00 PM ON 1/8/15 THE DOOR AJAR SENSOR CAME ON....

DRIVERS DOOR READING DOOR AJAR WHEN THE DOOR IS NOT AJAR. OPENED AND CLOSED MULTIPLE TIMES AND SENSOR WILL STILL NOT READ THAT DOOR IS CLOSED SOMETIMES. CAN BE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WHEN DOOR IS OBVIOUSLY CLOSED AND SENSOR WILL START ALARMING AND DOME LIGHT COMES ON. *TR

DRIVERS DOOR AJAR LIGHT IS COMING ON WHILE DRIVING. DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WITH THIS ON WHICH IS A SAFETY HAZARD. DOOR AJAR LIGHT CONTINUES TO COME ON AND THE ALERT CHIME SOUNDS. I HAVE NOT TAKEN THIS VEHICLE IN FOR SERVICE FOR THIS ISSUE DUE TO THE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS I HAVE READ AND FORD NOT TAKING CARE OF THE COST TO REPAIR THIS ISSUE. I FEEL THAT FORD SHOULD COVER THIS SINCE IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE. *TR

DRIVER DOOR LATCH SENSOR DOES NOT RECOGNIZE THAT DOOR IS CLOSED. STARTED AS INTERMITTENT PROBLEM NOW ALARM IS ON ALL THE TIME. CAN HEAR SWITCH CLICK WHEN MANUALLY OPERATED BUT DOOR AJAR ALARM WILL NOT GO OUT. THIS PREVENTS VARIOUS OTHER THINGS FROM OPERATING PROPERLY INCLUDING SAFETY FEATURES. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A DEFECTIVE PART THAT FORD HAS INSTALLED IN MANY OF THEIR VEHICLES. EVERY WHERE I TURN THERE ARE PEOPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS SAME PROBLEM. MOST OF THESE CARS ARE NOT EVEN 2 YEARS OLD. *TR

DRIVER SIDE DOOR SAYS IT'S NOT CLOSED AND LIGHTS STAYS ON IN DASH SAYING DOOR IS AJAR, BELL RINGS AND INTERIOR LIGHTS WON'T GO OFF, AFTER SEVERAL TIMES OF SLAMMING THE LIGHT GOES OUT. IT'S SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE LOCK SENSOR, BUT FORD HAS NOT RECALLED IT. I TRIED SPRAYING WD- 40 IN LOCK AREA REALLY DIDN'T HELP IT . WAS TOLD IT WOULD COST 300.00-500.00 TO REPAIR. COME ON FORD?????? *TR

WHEN CLOSE DOOR IT SAYS DOOR AJAR AND DOOR AJAR COMES ON AND DOME LIGHT STAYS ON. THIS HAPPENS ABOUT 60 PERCENT OF THE TIME. *TR

DRIVERS DOOR IS CLOSED BUT THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON. SOME TIME TURNS ON WHILE DRIVING. *TR

"DOOR AJAR" LIGHT WILL NOT GO OFF AND INTERIOR LIGHTS AND PANEL LIGHT LIGHTS WILL NOT GO OFF AFTER DOOR IS SHUT AND LOCKED. HAVE TO REOPEN DOOR AND START ENGINE, OPEN AND CLOSE DRIVER DOOR SEVERAL ITEMS TO GET INTERIOR LIGHTS, PANEL LIGHTS AND "DOOR AJAR" LIGHT TO GO OFF. ONLY HAPPENS WITH DRIVER DOOR. *TR

THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON I N DRIVER DOOR ALMOST EVERYTIME YOU SHUT THE DOOR NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU SLAM IT. IT TAKES SEVERAL TIMES FOR B THE SIGNAL TO GO OFF. THIS A HUGE SAFETY HAZARD. WHILE DRIVING THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT WILL COME ON RANDOMLY AND ALL THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL COME ON MAKING IT HARD TO SEE AT NIGHT. ALSO THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK IF THE DOOR AJAR SIGNAL IS TURNED ON. THIS IS RIDICULOUS AND I AM NOT HAPPY. THIS IS A NEWER VEHICLE AND THIS SHOULD BE RECALLED. THE DEALERSHIP WANTS 500 TO FIX THIS. WHEN THIS IS A MANUFACTURER ISSUE! *TR

THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT WILL COME ON ALONG WITH INTERIOR LIGHT AT RANDOM TIMES. IT HAPPENS WHEN FIRST ENTERING THE VEHICLE IN THE MORNING AND ALSO WHEN DRIVING AT ALL TIMES THROUGH THE DAY. THE ONLY FIX WE'VE FOUND IS SLAMMING THE DOOR SHUT A FEW TIMES. *TR

DOOR AJAR DRIVERS SIDE. TOOK IT INTO FORD AND THEY SAID IT JUST NEEDED TO BE CLEANED, CHARGED ME 100. NOW IT IS HAPPENING AGAIN 9 MONTHS LATER... ANNOYED. *TR

THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR LIGHT CONTINUES TO COME ON. THIS RESULTS IN CONTINUES ALERTS AND BEEPS WHILE DRIVING AND CAUSES THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TO STAY ON WHEN AWAY FROM VEHICLE. NO MATTER HOW HARD I SLAM THE DOOR I CONTINUE TO GET A MESSAGE THAT THE DOOR IS AJAR. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AMONG FORD EDGE VEHICLES AS DESCRIBED IN MANY USER FORUMS ONLINE AND SHOULD BE RECALLED. *TR

SUBMISSION FROM CONSTITUENT RE 2013 FORD EDGE ENGINE STALL. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED, THE VEHICLE SHOOK, AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED, ALL WITHIN SECONDS OF THE VEHICLE STALLING. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO FIND A PROBLEM. *JB

DRIVER DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON EVEN THOUGH THE DOOR IS CLOSED. *TR

DRIVER DOOR AJAR SENSOR DOES NOT RECOGNIZE THAT DOOR IS CLOSED. THIS PREVENTS ALL DOORS FROM BEING IN THE LOCKED POSITION WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE. MANUALLY LOCKING THE DOORS IS OVERRIDDEN BY THE SYSTEM AND AUTOMATICALLY UNLOCKED. ANNOYING ALARM ALWAYS GOING OFF WHILE DRIVING OR IDLE. NOT KNOWN IF SENSOR MALFUNCTION OR DOOR NOT ACTUALLY CLOSED PROPERLY. SHOULD BE RECALLED FOR REPAIR. *TR

DRIVER DOOR AJAR SENSOR DOES NOT RECOGNIZE THAT DOOR IS CLOSED. THIS PREVENTS ALL DOORS FROM BEING IN THE LOCKED POSITION WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE. MANUALLY LOCKING THE DOORS IS OVERRIDDEN BY THE SYSTEM AND AUTOMATICALLY UNLOCKED. THERE IS NO WAY TO OPERATED THE VEHICLE WITH THE DOORS IN THE LOCKED POSITION. *TR

WHILE DRIVING - EVEN THOUGH THE DRIVER DOOR IS COMPLETELY SHUT, THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR WARNING SIGN APPEARS ON THE DASHBOARD SCREEN ACCOMPANIED BY THE SOUND OF A CHIME. SOMETIMES WHEN YOU OPEN AND SHUT THE DRIVER DOOR WHETHER WHILE STILL DRIVING OR IF AND WHEN YOU FIND A SIDE OF THE ROAD SPACE, THE WARNING SIGN DISAPPEARS. BUT OFTENTIMES, IT TAKES 3 OR FOUR TRIES TO MAKE IT DISAPPEAR. SOMETIMES THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR WARNING COMES WITH AN INSTRUCTION TO SHIFT TO P (PARK) . . . . WHICH IS HELPFUL IF YOU CAN FIND A SIDE OF THE ROAD SPOT OTHERWISE THE INSTRUCTION WILL JUST CONFUSE A NOVICE DRIVER AND COULD POTENTIALLY CREATE AN ACCIDENT. I SEARCH THE INTERNET AND FOUND THIS PROBLEM IS VERY COMMON WITH FORD EDGE. I FEEL THAT THIS PROBLEM COULD POTENTIALLY CREATE AN ACCIDENT AND WARRANTS A RECALL. *TR

NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU CLOSE THE DOOR ON THE DRIVERS SIDE OF OUR FORD EDGE. THE DOOR LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON AND DEMANDING YOU PUT THE CAR PARK TO SHUT THE DOOR. HOWEVER THE DOOR TAKES FOR EVER TO REGISTER THAT IT IS CLOSED AND SOMETIMES DOESN'T REGISTER. *TR

DRIVER SIDE DOOR SHOWS UP ON DISPLAY AS BEING OPEN ALONG WITH ENGINE ON MESSAGE. I HAVE TO CLOSE THE DOOR ANYWHERE FROM 2-5 TIMES TO GET THE DOOR MESSAGE GONE. ALSO WHEN I ENTER THE VEHICLE AFTER IT'S BEEN PARKED THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON AND I HAVE TO START THE CAR AND SHUT IT OFF TO GET THEM TO GO OUT. *TR

INSTRUMENT PANEL SHOWS DRIVER AJAR WHEN DOOR IS NOT AJAR. DOOR HAS TO BE OPENED AND CLOSED REPEATEDLY UNTIL INSTRUMENT PANEL NO LONGER SHOWS DRIVER DOOR AJAR. THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT WILL RANDOMLY COME ON WHILE DRIVING, CAUSING CABIN LIGHTS TO COME ON, WHICH IS ESPECIALLY HAZARDOUS WHEN IT IS DARK OUT. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE WITH MULTIPLE FORD VEHICLES AND MUST BE ADDRESSED. *TR
