THE DOOR SENSOR ON MY 2013 FORD FLEX CONTINUOUSLY SAYS THE DOOR IS "AJAR" EVEN THOUGH IT MAY NOT BE. THIS CAUSES ALL OF THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TO COME ON, AS WELL AS THE DOORS TO UNLOCK. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN AS I TRAVEL DAILY 80-90 MILES WITH TWO TODDLERS IN MY VEHICLE. SOMETIMES YOU CAN SHUT THE DOOR 4-5X AND THE DOOR AJAR SENSOR WILL GO OFF, BUT MOST OF THE TIME, YOU HAVE TO JUST DEAL WITH IT.. UNSAFE AND ALL. ALSO, THE DOOR AJAR SENSOR WHEN THE CAR IS OFF AND PARKED CAUSES THE ALARM ON THE VEHICLE TO GO OFF AT RANDOM TIMES...USUALLY ALL THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT! THIS IS A DAILY OCCURRENCE THAT HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR APPROXIMATELY 10 MONTHS. FORD WILL NOT COVER THIS AS THEY SAY MY VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND THE COST IS ESTIMATED $600 TO...

DRIVER SIDE DOOR AND RIGHT BACK PASSENGER AJAR DOOR. IT SAYS ITS OPEN WHEN ITS RUNNING. TOTALLY UNSAFE FOR MY KIDS WHO RIDE IN THE BACK. SINCE I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE TO HAVE A BETTER COMFORT WITH MY FAMILY AND DRIVE THEM TO THEIR SCHOOL, SOCCER PRACTICES AND GAMES. :( TOTAL DISAPPOINTMENT BOUT THIS ISSUE. WHEN FORD CHARGES ME AROUND $500.00 TO FIX IT, WHEN SUPPOSED TO BE A RECALL FOR FAULTY LATCH.. *TR

THE DRIVER DOOR IS SHOWING AJAR. IT YOU SLAM THE DOOR MULTIPLE TIMES, THE LIGHT WILL GO OFF. EVERY TIME YOU PUT ON BRAKES, THE CHIMING GOES OFF AND LIGHT COMES ON. I HAVE SEEN THIS HAS BEEN A RECURRING PROBLEM AND FORD WILL NOT ISSUE A RECALL. MUST REPLACE ENTIRE LATCH SYSTEM TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. *TR

DOOR AJAR LIGHT FOR THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR STAYS LIT EVEN THOUGH DOOR IS CLOSED. AT TIMES IT TAKES OVER TWENTY ATTEMPTS TO GET IT TO TURN OFF. DOORS WILL NOT LOCK AND LIGHTS DO NOT GO OFF AT NIGHT UNTIL YOU MANAGE TO GET THE DOOR LIGHT OFF. EVEN WHEN LIGHT IS OFF AND DOOR HAS NOT BEEN OPENED IT WILL SUDDENLY LIGHT UP AND ALARM GOES OFF WHEN DRIVING. *TR
