2013 FORD EDGE Electrical System Problems

WHEN PUTTING VEHICLE IN PARK AND SHUTTING OFF VEHICLE YELLOW WARNING LIGHT IN DASH APPEARS "SHIFT TO PARK" ACCOMPANIED WITH A WARNING NOISE

THE DRIVES DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON. YOU DO NOT KNOW IF YOUR DOOR IS CLOSED OR NOT. EVERYONE WITH THIS PROBLEM WILL EVENTUALLY IGNORE THIS LIGHT EVEN WHEN THERE DOOR MAY BE OPEN. IT IS OBVIUS THE SAFETY PROBLEMS THIS COULD CAUSE.

WHEN THE WINDSHIELD WIPER SPEED CONTROL IS TURNED OFF, THE WIPER CONTINUES TO RUN. HAVE NOT FOUND A WAY TO MAKE IT STOP. SEARCHING DATABASES ONLINE, REVEALS A PROBLEM THAT IS QUITE COMMON. THIS PRODUCT SHOULD BE RECALLED AND REPLACED BY THE MANUFACTURER DUE TO EARLY FAILURE AND A LARGE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS.

DOOR AJAR WARNING. THE CAR DOES NOT RECOGNIZE WHEN YOU SHUT THE DOOR. WHEN YOU START THE CAR THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON AND THE WARNING LIGHT FOR DOOR AJAR STAYS ILLUMINATED. ALSO, THE ERROR CODE SHIFT TO PARK DINGS EVERYTIME YOU TAKE OFF FROM A STOP. THE DOORS DO NOT LOCK WHILE THE CAR IS RUNNING AND IN MOTION. IF YOU ATTEMPT TO LOCK THE DOORS MANUALLY THEY IMMEDIATELY UNLOCK. WHEN THE CAR IS TURNED OFF AND LOCKED FROM THE FOB THE EXTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ILLUMINATED FOR AN EXTENDED AMOUNT OF TIME. THIS IS VERY DRAINING ON THE BATTERY.

"REAR LEFT DOOR AJAR". INTERIOR DOME LIGHTS STAY ON FOR A SIGNIFICANTLY VARYING AMOUNT OF TIME WHEN DRIVING AND WHEN IT'S DARK AT NIGHT THIS IS VERY DISTRACTING AND DANGEROUS. THE INTERIOR DOME LIGHTS STAY ON FOR A SIGNIFICANTLY VARYING AMOUNT OF TIME AFTER THE CAR IS TURNED OFF AND KEY IS REMOVED. THIS IS DRAINING THE BATTERY AND GOING TO LEAD TO PREMATURE BATTERY FAILURE. SOMETIMES THE CAR DOORS WON'T LOCK WHILE DRIVING. SOMETIMES CAR DOORS WON'T LOCK AFTER EXITING CAR IN NON-SECURE AREAS SUCH AS PARKING LOTS, ETC.

THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR 'DOOR OPEN' LIGHT WILL NOT GO OUT WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED. THE OVERHEAD LIGHT WILL STAY ON AND DISTRACT ME WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT. IT WILL ALSO DRAIN THE BATTERY WHEN THE IGNITION IS TURNED OFF BECAUSE IT DOES NOT REGISTER THAT THE DOOR IS CLOSED.

ORIGINALLY OCCURRED IN 2015. AT THAT TIME THE DEALER INDICATED THAT SOP WAS TO CLEAN CONTACTS NOT REPLACE COMPONENT. THE CLEANING WORKED UNTIL THE WARRANTY EXPIRED. NOW THE DOOR DOES NOT REGISTER IN THE SYSTEM AS CLOSED AT ANY TIME. THE DOOR IS CLOSED BUT THE SYSTEM DOES NOT SEE IT AS CLOSED. DOOR REMAINS UNLOCKED BECAUSE SYSTEM DOES NOT SEE IT CLOSED. ANTI-THEFT DOES NOT WORK BECAUSE SYSTEM DOES NOT SEE DOOR AS CLOSED. LIGHTS REMAIN ON FOR LONG PERIODS OF TIME WHEN THE DOORS ARE CLOSED. GET WARNING THAT DOOR IS OPEN, WHEN IT IS CLOSED.

DOOR AJAR LIGHT ALWAYS STAYS ON AND AT TIMES DOORS DON'T LOCK.

DRIVER DOOR AJAR REMAINS ON WITH DOOR CLOSED. CANNOT LOCK DOORS AND LIGHTS DRAIN BATTERY.

REAR DOOR SENSOR WILL NOT GO OFF, RESULTS IN DOME LIGHT STAYING ON RUNNING BATTERY DOWN. WIPERS WILL NOT SHUT OFF

DOOR AJAR LIGHT ON DASH ALWAYS ON WHEN IGNITION KEY IS INSERTED - DOORS SECURELY LATCHED - DOME LIGHTS STAY ON, DRAINING BATTERY - DOORS WON'T LOCK FOR SAFETY IN MOTION - DEALER TRYING TO ACT LIKE THEY NEVER HEARD OF IT, ALTHOUGH THOUSANDS MENTIONED ONLINE - VEHICLE HAS 30600 MILES

A COUPLE WEEKS AGO THE "DOOR AJAR" WARNING LIGHT APPEARED. I'VE REPEATEDLY CHECKED THE CONDITION OF THE DOORS AND LIGHT DOESN'T GO OFF. I'VE READ OF THE PROBLEM ON LINE AND IT SEEMS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE, EXPENSIVE TO REPAIR, AND KNOWN TO CAUSE ISSUES WITH THE BATTERY LIFE AND OPERATION OF THE LOCKING/ELECTRICAL SYSTEM.

DOOR AJAR WARNING WILL NOT SHUT OFF. DRIVERS DOOR.

DRIVERS DOOR KEEPS TELLING ME DOOR IS AJAR. I HAVE TO CLOSE THE DOOR AND OPEN IT SEVERAL TIMES TO CLEAR THE MESSAGE. IF YOU DON'T CLEAR THE MESSAGE, IT COULD KILL YOUR BATTERY. I HAVE SEEN MANY COMPLAINTS FROM FORD OWNERS ON THIS EXACT ISSUE.

THE DOORS SENSORS OF THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER DOORS ARE FAULTY, CAUSING THE CAR TO REGISTER THEM AS "OPEN" ALL THE TIME. THIS CAUSES DOOR LOCKS TO DEFAULT TO UNLOCKED, EVEN WHILE DRIVING, REGARDLESS OF SPEED. THIS CAUSES A FALL HAZARD, A CARJACKING HAZARD, AND AN ABDUCTION HAZARD FOR ME AND MY CHILDREN. IT ALSO CAUSES THE OVERHEAD LIGHTS TO STAY ON WHILE BEGINNING TO DRIVE UNTIL THE CAR REACHES SPEEDS OVER 10 MPH. THIS CAUSES A PROBLEM WHILE IN REVERSE IN PARKING LOTS, AS THE LIGHTS DECREASES VISIBILITY TO ALMOST NOTHING AND PREVENTS ME FROM SEEING CARS CROSSING BEHIND ME AND PARKED ON MY PASSENGER SIDE.

MY 2013 FORD EDGE KEEPS TELLING ME MY DRIVERS SIDE DOOR IS AJAR, IT KEEPS BEEPING WHEN I AM DRIVING, THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON WHEN I TRY AND LOCK THE CAR WHEN I ARRIVE HOME AND THEY DON'T GO OFF AND DRAIN THE BATTERY. I ONLY HAVE 25,900 MILES ON MY CAR AND I FEEL THAT THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE A RECALL.

THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR SAYS IT'S AJAR WHEN IT'S CLOSED. AND YOU CANNOT LOCK THE VEHICLE AND THE LIGHT STAY ON LONGER. IT'S ONLY ON THE DRIVER SIDE FRONT DOOR. THE LIGHT COMES ON WHEN THE VEHICLE IS MOVING

'DRIVER DOOR AJAR' NOTIFICATION IS PRESENT WHILE IN MOTION IN SPITE OF DOOR BEING CLOSED/LATCHED. DOORS WON'T LOCK WHILE IN THE CAR (WHETHER IN MOTION OR STATIONARY) & ALARM CANNOT BE SET BECAUSE OF THIS. SEVERAL TIMES, THE NOTIFICATION WASN'T PRESENT ONLY TO POP UP WHILE DRIVING & DOORS UNLOCKED & WOULDN'T LOCK AGAIN. SOMETIMES NOTIFICATION GOES AWAY BUT IT'S BEEN INCREASING IN FREQUENCY THE LAST MONTH & A HALF. "DRIVER DOOR AJAR" NOTIFICATION IS PRESENT MORE OFTEN THAN NOT. SAFETY IS AN ISSUE & FRUSTRATION IS HIGH. SLAMMING THE DOOR DOESN'T WORK. SHUTTING THE DOOR LIGHTLY DOESN'T WORK. SHUTTING THE DOOR NORMALLY DOESN'T WORK. THERE'S NO RHYME OF REASON TO IT. REGARDING "WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN", IT'S BEEN HAPPENING FOR THE LAST MONTH & A HALF (BEGINNING OF SEPT UNTIL NOW) .

DRIVER'S SIDE REAR DOOR IS INDICATED AS ALWAYS OPEN/AJAR. THE ON-DASH WARNING SHOWS UP WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STARTED. WHEN VEHICLE IS DRIVEN IN REVERSE, THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON. WHEN THE VEHICLE IS DRIVEN FORWARD, THE LIGHTS FADE OUT BUT THE DOORS TO NOT LOCK AUTOMATICALLY. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN. WHEN THE VEHICLE IS SITTING IN MY GARAGE, THE CONVENIENCE LIGHTS WILL RANDOMLY TURN ON. THIS STARTED HAPPENING CLOSE TO TWO YEARS AGO AND WAS INTERMITTENT. NOW IT IS VERY CONSISTENT. I USED 10/15/2017 FOR THIS REPORT SINCE I DON'T REMEMBER WHEN THIS FIRST HAPPENED.

VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION WHEN ALL SYSTEMS, INCLUDING POWER STEERING STOPPED DURING A LEFT TURN. UPON INSPECTION, BATTERY WAS DEAD. PRIOR TO THIS, THE "DOOR AJAR" WARNING INDICATOR WAS LIGHT, DESPITE THE DOOR BEING LATCHED. CERTIFIED FORD SERVICE CENTER SAID THAT THE DOOR WAS INDEED LATCHED, SO THERE WAS NO SAFETY ISSUE THERE. HOWEVER, DIDN'T INFORM THAT IT WOULD DRAIN BATTERY. OCCASIONALLY, THE VEHICLE PARKING HEADLIGHTS WOULD COME ON, ALONG WITH DOME LIGHT WHEN NOT IN OPERATION.

DRIVERS DOOR AJAR SENSOR ALWAYS ON INTERIOR LIGHTS DRAINING BATTERY UNABLE TO LOCK DOORS

BATTERY DRAIN FROM SOMETHING. CAR BATTERY WILL GO DEAD FOR NO REASON. I'VE HAD TO HAVE CAR JUMP STARTED 5 TIMES IN 3 WEEKS. NO GETTING BATTERY SAVER MODE IS OFF. BATTERY WILL TEST GOOD WITH PROPER VOLTAGE. THEN IT WILL TEST AT 9 VOLTS. JUMP IT AND IT WILL BE FINE AND CHARGE. THEN IT WILL GO DEAD AGAIN. SOMETHING IS DRAINING THE BATTERY AND FORD HAS NO CLUE BUT TO SAY LET'S PUT A NEW BATTERY IN. AND THEN THE NEW BATTERY WILL GO DEAD.

DRIVERS DOOR LATCH. DOOR IS CLOSED AND DOOR AJAR ALARM STAYS ON CAUSING BATTERY DRAIN IF YOU DON'T GET IT TO GO OFF. BATTERY HAS WENT DEAD 5 TIMES BECAUSE INTERIOR LIGHTS WON'T GO IF DOOR AJAR ALARM IS ON. THIS ALSO CAUSES DOOR LOCKS NOT TO WORK. FORDS FIX IS TO SERVICE THE LATCH WITH CLEANING THAT LASTS ONLY A COUPLE MONTHS AT $250.00. TO REPLACE LATCH CAN BE IN EXCESS OF $500.00 FOR A $50.00 PART. A BATTERY CAN ONLY TAKE GOING DEAD SO MANY TIMES. BATTERY'S CAN COST WELL OVER $100.00 DOLLARS TO REPLACE.

DRIVERS DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT ON WITH ALL DOORS CLOSED, OVERHEAD LIGHTS ILLUMINATED AND AUDIBLE WARNING AS RESULT OF DEFECTIVE SWITCH OR ASSOCIATED ELECTRONIC DEVICES OR OTHER MECHANICAL COMPONENT INSTALLATION,

DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR DETECTION IS FAULTING. WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED OFTEN TIMES THE DOOR IS DETECTED AS OPEN, THE ALARM KEEPS GOING. RESULT: I CAN'T LOCK THE DOORS AND THE CONSTANT ALARMS ARE VERY DISTRACTING AND ANNOYING.

THE DOOR AJAR INDICATOR LIGHT IS ON BUT THE DOORS ARE SHUT TIGHT ALSO THE DOORS COME UNLOCKED WHILE DRIVING WITHOUT US TOUCHING ANY BUTTONS.

PURCHASED CAR JAN 2017, STARTED HAVING TROUBLES 5 MONTHS LATER + SUNROOF WON'T OPEN, THEN WHEN DOES, WON'T CLOSE. GO TO PUT IN PARK, TELLS YOU CAR ISN'T IN PARK WHEN IT IS AND SEAT WON'T MOVE! AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON AT RANDOM AND STAYS ON. OF COURSE IT GOES OFF WHEN YOU TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP! LOW AIR TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT COMES ON AND STAYS ON NO MATTER THE TEMPERATURE OUTSIDE. NO PROBLEM WITH TIRES... TRYING TO TALK TO ANYONE ON THE CARS PHONE FEATURE HASN'T WORKED SINCE WEEK 2... KEEPS DROPPING CALLS EVEN WHEN SITTING IN THE SAME PLACE WHICH IS EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING WHEN TALKING TO MY TRUCK DRIVER HUSBAND! HAPPENS WHETHER DRIVING OR STATIONARY! REALLY STARTING TO FEEL LIKE WE GOT STUCK WITH A LEMON HERE AND NO MONEY FOR ANOTHER CAR!

DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON RUNNING INTERIOR LIGHTS CAUSING BATTERY USAGE EVEN WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED. TRYING TO OPEN AND CLOSE DOOR WHILE DRIVING TO ELIMINATE DOOR AJAR COULD CAUSE ACCIDENT. FORD NEEDS TO RECALL ON THIS ISSUE AND FIX.

DRIVER DOOR SENSOR WILL RANDOMLY SAY THAT THE DRIVER DOOR IS AJAR. IT ALSO AUTOMATICALLY TURNS THE DOME LIGHTS ON AS PART OF THE ALERT WHICH IS IN TURN BURNING UP MY BATTERY. I AM UNABLE TO LOCK THE VEHICLE WHEN THE SENSOR IS MALFUNCTIONING WHICH CAUSES SAFETY ISSUE BY LEAVING MY VEHICLE UNLOCKED. THIS IS A MAJOR ISSUE.

REAR LIFT GATE SENSOR BROKE AT 20K.IT WOULD START TO CLOSE THEN WOULD OPEN AUTOMATICALLY. IT HAD TO BE FORCE CLOSED.IT TOOK 2 WEEKS FOR THE PART BUT BY THEN THE LIFT GATE MOTOR WAS WORN OUT TOO.I HAD TO WAIT 2 MORE WEEKS FOR THAT PART TO COMPLETELY REPAIR THE ELECTRIC LIFT GATE.AT 36K MY COLLISION WARNING SENSOR OFTEN WOULDN'T WORK WHILE DRIVING.IT STOPS THE WARNING FROM ALARMING WHEN THE CAR IN COLLISION DANGE AND IT STOPS THE CAR CRUISE CONTROL TO AUTOMATICALLY ADJUST THE CARS SPEED TO KEEP A SAFE DISTANCE. THE DEALER SAID THE BUMPER WAS DAMAGED AND THE SENSOR WAS POINTING DOWN BUT DON'T KNOW HOW THAT CAN BE WITH NO VISIBLE BUMPER DAMAGE.AT 38K MY DRIVERS SIDE DOOR SENSOR ALMOST ALWAYS SAYS THE DOOR IS AJAR AS SOON AS ENTERING AND INDICATOR ILLUMINATES AND CHIMES AND THE INTERIOR LIGHT STAYS ON FOR A PERIOD AND...

I HAVE A 2013 FORD EDGE AND THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR AJAR INDICATOR REMAINS ILLUMINATED EVEN AFTER THE DOOR IS SHUT. IT WAS INTERMITTENT AT FIRST, BUT NOW THE SYSTEM ALWAYS THINKS THE DOOR IS AJAR. WHEN I LOCK IT WITH MY KEYFOB, IT LOCKS BUT THE LIGHTS STAY ON AND IT HONKS TWICE, INDICATING THAT IT THINKS A DOOR IS OPEN. THIS WILL CAUSE THE CARS INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR LIGHTS TO REMAIN ON FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME, DRAINING THE BATTERY. THIS IS RIDICULOUS. NOT TO MENTION THE DOME LIGHTS STAYING ON WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT IS A SAFETY CONCERN BECAUSE IT IMPEDES MY ABILITY TO DRIVE SAFELY BECAUSE I CAN'T SEE OUTSIDE AS WELL WITH LIGHTS ON INSIDE.

I HAVE A 2013 FORD EDGE WHICH BEGAN EXPERIENCING INTERMITTENT ISSUES WITH THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR SWITCH AT APPROXIMATELY 50K MILES. THE SWITCH WAS REPAIRED BY A FORD DEALER AT APPROXIMATELY 61K MILES AND WITHIN 6 MONTHS BEGAN TO REOCCUR. NOW A YEAR LATER AT 79K MILES IT COMES AND GOES MOST EVERYDAY IT IS DRIVEN. SOME DAYS IT IS WHEN YOU FIRST GET IN THE VEHICLE, OTHER DAYS IT MAY SUDDENLY UNLOCK THE DOORS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND SOUND THE ALARM TELLING YOU TO PLACE THE VEHICLE IN PARK AND CLOSE THE DOOR. THIS IS A CLEAR SAFETY HAZARD THAT FORD SHOULD BE MADE TO CORRECT. BLINDING LIGHTS AT NIGHT, DOORS THAT WILL NOT LOCK OR UNLOCK WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD POSES A SAFETY RISK FOR CHILDREN OPERATING DOORS AS WELL AS THE ADULT OCCUPANTS. NOT TO MENTION THE SECURITY RISK WHEN DRIVING THROUGH A QUESTIONABLE AREA AND...

A WARNING PANEL DECLARING THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR IS AJAR COMES UP WHEN THE DOOR IS NOT AJAR WHETHER WE ARE DRIVING OR STATIONARY. ALSO, ANOTHER PANEL DIRECTS ME TO PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP. WHEN THE DOOR IS AJAR THE INTERIOR LIGHTS COME ON WHICH IS DANGEROUS AT NIGHT BECAUSE IT DIMINISHES VISIBILITY. IT IS A SAFETY DEFECT.

HUNDREDS AND HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE WITH THIS SPECIFIC MODEL AND YEAR ARE REPORTING THE SAME ISSUE OF THE DOOR AJAR SENSOR GOING OUT. SOME PEOPLE SAY IT IS HAPPENING REPEATEDLY EVEN AFTER REPAIR. FORD HASN'T RECALLED IT THOUGH, AND IT IS COSTING AS MUCH AS $750 FOR CONSUMERS. MINE HAS BEEN OUT SINCE JUST AFTER BUYING THE CAR. THE FACT THAT THE REPAIRS ARE NOT EVEN WORKING PERMANENTLY IS A BIGGER ISSUE TOO. THIS IS CLEARLY A MANUFACTURER PROBLEM AND NEEDS TO BE RESOLVED BY FORD. THIS IS A CONSTANT ISSUE REGARDLESS OF MOTION. STATIONARY VEHICLES AND MOVING VEHICLES ALIKE ARE SHOWING THIS ISSUE.

DOOR WON'T STAY LOCKED WHEN CAR IS IN MOTION. I HAVE SMALL CHILDREN AND THE DOORS WON'T LOCK WHEN I'M DRIVING. DOOR ALARM KEEPS GOING OFF, SHOWING THAT DOOR ISN'T LATCHED PROPERLY.

DOOR AJAR WILL NOT GO OFF, BECAUSE IF THIS THE DOORS DO NOT LOCK, INTER LIGHTS WILL NOT GO OFF.HEATS UP INTER LIGHT AREA, DRAINS BATTERY.

1. THE 'DOOR AJAR' SENSOR IS TELLING THE CAR THAT THE DOOR IS ALWAYS OPEN. AS A RESULT, THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON ALL THE TIME, WHICH CAUSES VISIBILITY ISSUES WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT. IT ALSO LEAVES THE LIGHTS ON EVEN AFTER THE ENGINE IS TURNED OFF AND DOORS ARE LOCKED, WHICH DRAINS THE BATTERY, AND HAS CAUSED MY WIFE TO BE STRANDED A COUPLE OF TIMES. WE REPLACED THE SWITCH AND A YEAR LATER, WE ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AGAIN. OUR DAUGHTER OFTEN DRIVES THE CAR TO COLLEGE AT NIGHT AND HAS BEEN STRANDED AT LEAST TWICE AFTER GETTING OUT OF CLASS AT 10 PM. THIS PROBLEM HAS GONE BEYOND A NUISANCE AND IS NOW A SAFETY ISSUE. WHEN I CALLED FORD DEALER TO COMPLAIN AGAIN, THEY TOLD ME THEY CAN FIX IT, BY REPLACING THE SWITCH ASSEMBLY ON THE DOOR LOCK, FOR $400. SO FAR, THIS SENSOR...

YOU CAN BE DRIVING AND THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT WILL COME ON WHICH TURNS THE INTERIOR LIGHTS ON MAKING DRIVING AT NIGHT VERY DIFFICULT DUE TO THE UNEXPECTED LIGHTING THAT REDUCES VISIBILITY GREATLY AT AN INSTANCE. ALSO IT MAY TAKE SEVERAL ATTEMPTS CLOSING THE DOOR TO GET THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT TO GO OUT CAUSING ONE TO WONDER IF THE DOOR IS TRULY CLOSED OR NOT.

DRIVER'S DOOR FALSELY INDICATING AJAR. FIRST OCCURRENCE WAS AT 29K MILES AND LOCAL FORD DEALER CLEANED IT PER TSB 15-0013 AND THE SYSTEM WORKED FINE FOR A PERIOD OF TIME. ISSUE WOULD REOCCUR SPORADICALLY FOR VARYING DURATION. IT IS NOW A DAILY ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AND IS "NOT A WARRANTY ITEM". THIS ISSUE PRESENTS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT AS THE INTERIOR LIGHT COMES ON AS IF THE DOOR WAS OPENED CAUSING REDUCED VISIBILITY AS WELL AS REMOVING FOCUS FROM THE ROAD TO MANUALLY OVERRIDE THE INTERIOR LIGHTING SYSTEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THE HEATER DID NOT WORK WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER (SETHWABLEY CHEVROLET IN ADA, OK) WHERE THE SOFTWARE WAS RESETTLED. THE FAILURE RECURRED A YEAR LATER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND REFERRED THE CONTACT TO NHTSA. THE FAILURE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 39,000.

DOOR AJAR MESSAGE CONSISTENTLY ON, ISSUE US IN LATCH CAUSING CONSISTENT MESSAGE AND DOME LIGHTS ON.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE WRENCH WARNING INDICATOR FLASHED AND THE VEHICLE HAD A SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER. THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED TO RESET THE CODE. THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ALSO ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE THROTTLE BODY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER ISSUED A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN, BUT THERE WAS NO RECALL TO PROVIDE A SOLUTION. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

DRIVER DOOR AJAR

TL* THE CONTACT'S WIFE OWNS A 2013 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE STEERING WHEEL BECAME DIFFICULT TO MANEUVER. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE DEALER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND REFERRED TO THE NHTSA HOTLINE AND NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS PROVIDED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 65,000.

DRIVER'S DOOR SWITCH FAILED. CONTINUOUSLY RECEIVE DRIVER DOOR AJAR WARNING WHEN THE DOOR IS SECURELY CLOSED. INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON FOR EXTENDED PERIODS OF TIME WHEN VEHICLE IS NOT MOVING OR MOVING SLOW.

THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR LIGHT WILL NOT GO OUT. AT FIRST AFTER CLOSING THE DOOR SEVERAL TIMES THE LIGHT WOULD GO OUT, NOW THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON.

DOOR AJAR LIGHT IS ON DRAINING THE BATTERY CAUSING 2ND TIME IN THREE MONTHS IVE CHANGED THE BATTERY.

DOOR AJAR LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON. FORD FIXED AT AROUND 38,000 MILES NOW IT HAS COME BACK. I WAS TOLD THEY WOULD DO THE CHEAP FIX AND IT WOULD RETURN AND THAT HAS BEEN THE CASE NOW I AM OUT OF WARRANTY. FORD THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE A RECALL. IF THE DOME LIGHT STAYS ON AT NIGHT OR DOORS WONT LOCK THIS IS A HUGE LIABILITY. ALSO ITS SETS OFF THE ALARM AND DRAINS MY BATTERY.

ON 6-22-17 I PURCHASED THE FORD EDGE FROM TOWN AND COUNTRY TOYOTA. LESS THAN A WEEK LATER THE CAR COMPUTER INDICATOR CONSISTENTLY BEGAN TO DENOTE DOOR AJAR. THE CAR WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE IT REMAINED FOR 4 DAYS. ON 7-13-2017 WHILE DRIVING ON BUSY STREET IN CHARLOTTE NC AROUND 4:30 PM IN THE AFTERNOON THE FORD EDGE COMPUTER SYSTEM FLASHES THAT THE OIL PRESSURE IS LOW. IMMEDIATELY AFTER THIS INFORMATION WAS PLACED ON THE CAR COMPUTER SCREEN THE BREAKS LOCKED, THE STEERING LOCK AND THE CAR STOPS WHILE IN TRANSITION WITH NO WARNING AND I AM SITTING UNDERNEATH THE GREEN LIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION ON THE STREET.

DOOR AJAR LIGHT REMAINS ON WHILE THE DOOR IS COMPLETELY CLOSED AND SEATED. FORD STATES THAT THE LATCH HAD TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $465. MULTIPLE OTHER PROFESSIONAL OPINIONS HAVE STATED THAT THE LATCH IS UNNECESSARY AND THAT THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS REGARDING THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT REMAINING ON AFTER CLEANING VARIOUS PARTS, REPLACING PARTS, AND SPENDING LARGE AMOUNTS OF MONEY ON PATCH FIXES. THE LIGHT CAME ON INTERMITTENTLY APPROXIMATELY ONE MONTH AGO AND GRADUALLY STAYED ON AS TIME PROGRESSED. ORIGINALLY, I COULD CLOSE THE OPEN AND CLOSE THE DOOR UP TO 3 TIMES AND THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT WOULD TURN OFF. OVER TIME THE LIGHT WOULD CONTINUALLY STAY ON. THIS BEGAN TO DRAIN THE VEHICLE BATTERY AS WELL.
