2011 FORD EDGE Complaints

MY 2011 FORD EDGE CURRENTLY HAS 59000 MILES ON IT. THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT WILL NOT GO OFF. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP TO BE CHECKED OUT. THEY SAID IT WAS NOT COVERED IN WARRANTY AND THAT THERE IS A TSB ON IT- TSB-14-0083. APPARENTLY THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE. I AM NOT ABLE TO LOCK MY DOORS PROPERLY IN THE VEHICLE. MY ALARM WILL RANDOMLY GO OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT BECAUSE ITS SENSING THAT THE DOOR IS OPEN WHEN IT ISN'T. I WILL NOT PAY TO HAVE THIS REPLACED WHEN IT IS VERY EVIDENT THAT THIS IS A "KNOWN ISSUE" AS MY SERVICE ADVISOR TOLD ME. THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED BECAUSE OF THE SAFETY ISSUES THAT ARE PRESENTED WHEN YOU CAN'T LOCK YOUR DOORS. *TR

UPON ENTERING THE 2011 FORD EDGE I CLOSED THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR AND THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT CAME ON AFTER I STARTED THE CAR. I OPENED AND CLOSED THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR SEVERAL TIMES TO NO AVAIL. I PUSHED THE OK BUTTON ON THE STEERING WHEEL AND TRIED TO OPEN AND CLOSE THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR AND THE LIGHT WENT OFF. THIS HAPPENS ABOUT 3-5 TIMES A WEEK. *TR

THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR SENSOR IS NOT READING THAT THE DOOR IS CLOSED AND REMAINS ON. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME IN A YEAR THAT I AM GOING TO HAVE THE SENSOR REPLACED. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE THROTTLE BODY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. NO REPAIRS WERE MADE TO THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 53,435.

DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON WITH DOOR SHUT. DOME LIGHT STAYS ON SO YOU ARE BLINDED AT NIGHT. CANT LOCK DOORS SO IT IS UNSAFE. STARTED DOING IT AT 19000 MILES. FORD WOULD NOT FIX IT. LOOKS LIKE THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR

THE DRIVER DOOR IS SHOWING AN ALARM OF NOT BEING CLOSED WHEN IT IS CLOSED. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS DO NOT SHUT OFF FOR 2 MINUTES AND THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE WHEN DRIVING A NIGHT AND IT IS KILLING THE BATTERY OFF. *TR

DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT COMES ON WHEN DOOR IS FULLY SHUT, DOME LIGHTS STAYS ON AND CANNOT LOCK CAR. I CAN OPEN AND SHUT IT TO TURN OFF WARNING BUT THEN IT POPS ON AGAIN. *TR

DRIVER DOOR AJAR WARNING PERSISTENTLY ON. CABIN LIGHTS REMAIN ON. MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ON INTERNET REGARDING THIS PROBLEM WITH FORD VEHICLE. *TR

TSB-14-0083 AND 0011. DOOR AJAR WILL NOT TURN OFF. THE ISSUE IS WITH THE DRIVER'S DOOR LATCH ASSEMBLY. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL AS IT IS AFFECTING ALL 2011 AND NEWER FORD CARS WITH THIS LATCH SYSTEM AS DOCUMENTED HERE ON MULTIPLE TREADS ON FORDEDGEFORUM.COM. EXAMPLE THREAD HTTP://WWW.FORDEDGEFORUM.COM/TOPIC/10869-DOOR-AJAR-WARNING-ON-AT-ALL-TIMES/PAGE-4. *TR

WHILE DRIVING 25-40 MPH, THE CAR WENT INTO LIMP MODE, NO ACCELERATION AT ALL. "YELLOW WRENCH" LIGHT CAME ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. I WAS STUCK IN THE INTERSECTION, MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN ACROSS TWO LANES OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC, AND I COULD NOT MOVE THE CAR. THE ENGINE DID NOT TURN OFF OR STALL. I JUST HAD NO POWER OR ABILITY TO ACCELERATE. I WAS FINALLY ABLE TO ROLL INTO A SAFE SPOT, OUT OF TRAFFIC AND HARMS WAY. I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND WAITED A FEW MINUTES TO RESTART. WHEN I RESTARTED IT, THE WRENCH LIGHT WAS OFF AND THE CAR RAN FINE. THIS HAPPENED TWICE, TWO NIGHTS IN A ROW, SO I HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALER THE NEXT DAY. THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO FIND ANY PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR AND WANTED ME TO JUST TAKE IT AS IS. I MENTIONED THAT I HAD READ ABOUT ISSUES WITH THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY, AND THEY SAID IT SEEMED FINE. HOW CAN THEY ALLOW ME TO TAKE A CAR THAT IS SO UNSAFE TO DRIVE? I COULD HAVE BEEN HIT, AND THE PERSON THAT HIT ME COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED. I CALLED FORD CUSTOMER RELATIONS, REGARDING AN INVESTIGATION ON THIS PROBLEM, AND THEY WERE REQUIRED TO DO A "CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM;. BUT MY VIN DID NOT FALL INTO THIS PROGRAM. I PAID TO HAVE THE ETB REPLACED, OUT OF POCKET, AND AM HOPING THAT THIS IS THE PROBLEM. VERY UNSAFE SITUATION TO BE PUT IN BY FORD. *TR
