2011 FORD EDGE Complaints

DOOR SENSOR AJAR WILL NOT GO OFF. UNABLE TO LOCK YOUR DOORS WHILE SENSOR STATES AJAR . HAS BEEN TO FORD DEALERSHIP MANY TIMES. THE DEALERSHIP HAS SAID IT FIXED ISSUE BUT THE SENSOR WENT BAD AGAIN. HOWEVER, AFTER WARRANTY EXPIRES. THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED AND FIXED. IT IS A HAZARD TO YOUR SAFETY NOT TO BE ABLE TO LOCK YOUR DOORS. *TR

DEFECTIVE SENSOR IN DRIVERS DOOR LATCH. DOORS WON'T LOCK WHILE CAR IS IN MOTION AND INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON WHILE CAR IS DRIVEN OR AFTER IT IS PARKED. *TR

DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON, DOES NOT ENGAGE CHILD SAFETY LOCKS. TAKES REPEATED TIMES CLOSING THE DRIVER DOOR FOR THE LIGHT TO GO OFF. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN IN ONCE WHILE UNDER WARRANTY, PART WAS REPLACED. STILL HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM AS MANY OTHERS DO WITH THIS VEHICLE.

FOR 2 YEARS I'VE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE TRANSMISSION IN MY FORD EDGE. I'VE HAD IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP MANY TIMES AND THEY'VE MISS DIAGNOSED IT A COUPLE OF TIMES. I WAS DRIVING DOWN A HIGHWAY AND THE TRANSMISSION WENT OUT. NO ACCELERATION, NOTHING. AFTER GETTING TO THE DEALERSHIP THE REVERSE, GEAR 5 & 6 AND CLUTCH WERE DESTROYED WITH ONLY 60,128 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. FORD WILL ONLY ALLOW THE DEALER TO REBUILD THE TRANSMISSION UNDER THE EXTENDED WARRANTY, INSTEAD OF REPLACING IT. MANY OTHERS HAVE EXPERIENCE THIS AT THE SAME AMOUNT OF MILES WITH ESCAPES, SPITFIRES, EXPLORERS AND OTHER EDGES. I AM ASKING FOR YOU TO LOOK INTO THIS FURTHER AND POSSIBLE ISSUE A RECALL. THE INTERNET IS LOADED WITH COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME ISSUES AND VIDEO TO SUPPORT WHAT I HAD HAPPEN. *TR

DOOR AJAR LIGHT FOR DRIVERS SIDE STAYS ON CONTINUOUSLY EVEN WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED PROPERLY. INTERIOR LIGHTS REMAIN ON UNTIL A CERTAIN SPEED IS REACHED. WHEN VEHICLE IS NOT IN USE THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TURN ON AND OFF AS IF THE DOOR WERE BEING OPENED AND CLOSED. I HAVE REPLACED THE BATTERY ONCE AND HAVE YET TO REPLACE THE DOOR SWITCH. *TR

DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON. DOOR IS SHUT TIGHT. DOOM LIGHTS STAY ON FOR AWHILE AND DOORS CAN NOT BE LOCKED WHEN CAR IS RUNNING. *TR

JUST AFTER THE MANUFACTURERS WARRANTY EXPIRED AT 36,000 MILES THE "DRIVER DOOR AJAR" NOTIFICATION CAME ON AND WILL NOT GO OUT. THIS IS AN EXTREMELY COMMON PROBLEM AND WELL KNOWN TO FORD. SAFETY CONCERNS ARE THAT THE LIGHTING WILL NOT GO OUT AND DRIVING AT NIGHT IS SEVERELY HAMPERED AND THE DOORS CANNOT BE LOCKED WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. THE NO-LOCK ISSUE IS A MAJOR PROBLEM WHILE HAVING CHILDREN IN THE CAR...IE, GRANDDAUGHTER. *TR

OUR FORD EDGE GIVES US THE DOOR AJAR NOTIFICATION UPON PUTTING THE CAR IN DRIVE AND AT RANDOM TIMES WHEN DRIVING. THE DOORS ARE ALL CLOSED WHEN THIS HAPPENS. THE OVERHEAD LIGHTS COME ON AND WILL NOT TURN OFF AS LONG AS THE DOOR AJAR WARNING IS ON. SOMETIMES, THE PROBLEM CAN BE CORRECTED BY SLAMMING THE DRIVER DOOR A FEW TIMES. OTHER TIMES THEIR SEEMS TO BE NO REMEDY. OTHER THAN BEING EXTREMELY ANNOYING, WE BELIEVE THIS TO BE A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. THE OVERHEAD LIGHTS MAKE IT DIFFICULT TO SEE OUT OF OUR VEHICLE AT NIGHT, AND IF THERE EVER REALLY WAS A DOOR AJAR, WE WOULDN'T KNOW. *TR

KEEPING GETTING DOOR AJAR NOTICE WHEN MY DRIVER SIDE DOOR IS CLOSED. ALSO, LIGHTS ON THE INSIDE DO NOT TURN OFF WHEN I AM DRIVING AND TAKE OVER 10 MINUTES TO TURN OFF WHEN VEHICLE IS TURNED OFF AND LOCKED. *TR

DOOR AJAR LIGHT COMES ON ALL THE TIME AND PREVENTS DOORS FROM LOCKING ALSO INTERIOR LIGHT STAYS ON.
